It's hard to believe another month has come and gone. I have not lost any more weight because I have not been logging my food or counting my calories. But! I have been walking a lot more, a lot farther and a lot faster. In the last 3 weeks I have logged 29 miles, and about 58,000 steps. It has been hard, sweaty work, but it has felt great! Sometimes it's hard to get motivated, and keep walking, but it feels so good when I'm done. I feel so relaxed and more cheerful. It's a great sense of accomplishment, too! I asked my M.D. Alan Sherwood how often I should walk. He said I only have to walk on the days I eat! (Ha!) I am going for at least 20 miles a week. (3 every day except 2 on Sunday.) I have also been doing stretching. I need to add ab work and strength training. I think some yoga for balance and flexibility would be good, too.
I also asked Dr. Sherwood about nutrition and diet advice. His advice was this: if God made it, it's okay to eat. If He didn't, it's not. Sounds simple, but there is so much truth in it. I have got to follow that plan! Here's to good health!
