Pressing play!! Day 3

[05/18/20]   Took care of my mother inlaw until her passing at the age of 97. Then I was grateful to be able to care for my own mother until her death in November, just before her 91st birthday. I fell off of caring for myself for a time and definitely felt my physical and mental slide into anxiety and depression the biggest size I ever been for me. From a size 8 to a 12. I'm at a 10 today but I'm not good with it. I'm tired and sciatica got me good. I finally got sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm more excited than ever. Day 3 in and my sciatica is mostly in control with twinges but better than the pain and a numb foot. Lifting the physical and mental weight of my in law and mom took its toll but the body resilient and so am I. So here I am again! Back! Looking forward to 55 in July! ❤🙏🕊

Diet Soda's Worst Fear Coming True: Massive Study links Aspartame to Major Problems

Stay away from this stuff. I don't know one person who has lost weight or has better health because of it. Just switching from one poison to another.

[05/29/19]   Good afternoon. I took an early morning nap. Ugg feeling funky. Sore from yesterdays Low Impact workout. But I'm staying on track eating wise. Making healthier choices just for today. I may even workout a lil or take a walk.

[05/28/19]   Low Cardio "Buns Of Steel" Done! No pain!

Ok here we go. I'm back. I use to work out with this video in the 90's before VHS. It worked great. As goofy as it is being the instructor is dressed in 80 style it works. So I'm gonna see what it does to my now over Fifty body. Here We go.

[05/28/19]   Ok I am back. After a rough two years of care giving and doing pretty well with my fitness, and eating, I fell off the wagon after the death of my mother in law. I didn't document my fitness during that time. I got caught up in the busyness. Well It's been about six months and everything went out the window. Diet, exercise that is. I've gained weight, feel sluggish, and tired. I'm tired of feeling this way so here I am doing what I know makes me my very best me. Getting back on the horse so to speak and gonna ride the mofo. It's getting different with age but I will make adjustments. If I can do this, anyone can.

Small changes over time, get it done!

Ok after a long break from life getting hectic let's do this thing!!
