Well the New Year finally came and went and it is time to get back on track with life in general. I weighed myself this morning and only gained 1 pound over the holidays so I am very glad about that. I now have to get back on track with exercise, I have rested my foot so will see how it goes when I start up tomorrow.

I love the saying: It is not what you do between Christmas and New Year’s, it’s what you do between New Year’s and Christmas that counts!

It is very true a few days of extras is not going to hurt it’s when those few days turn into weeks and then months.

So for myself for getting back on track I purchased some digital food scales so I can really track what I eat, plus I opend a free account over at myfitnesspal so it will make it really easy to track my food, exercise and water intake. Plus meet others who are trying to lose weight and maybe get inspired, hey or even inspire someone myself!

Happy New Year

Managed to get over the flu bug in about a week. Put that down to the fact of being healthier and eating lots of fruits and veggies. Started walking again this week, it is wonderful to enjoy the crisp mornings and hear the birds chirping away.

I lost another 6lbs while being sick and have kept it off! Now just have to get back into doing my 30 day shred routine and back onto the Bowflex. Would love to lose at least another 10lbs by Christmas. Still have to rake and move mountains of leaves before the snow comes. It is just difficult as by the time you get home in the evening it gets dark so fast and the minute the sun is behind the trees the temperatures drop dramatically.

Food wise I am finding that I am eating smaller portions and feeling full, plus reaching for the water bottle is becoming more of a habit as well. Bit by bit these small adjustments are becoming more of a daily routine.

Time to go for a quick walk and enjoy the sunshine. Want to try out a great new exercise dvd?
