Life has been a bit hectic for me this week and I missed out on two of my exercise sessions but the positive side was I DID succeed in getting to bed before midnight for six nights in a row, quite an achievement for me, so I have been looking after myself. :-). I did actually gain some weight so the cutting back on exercise had a negative effect.  I know not to panic, I know it is ‘life style’, not panic short sprint actions that will make the difference I want to happen in my life.  

It is often hard to maintain my focus on this and that is why I express, in my blog,  that I am seeking ‘balanced life’, not a yo-yo of being on or being off a diet. I keeps me focused and stops me going from one extreme, overeating and or under activity, to the opposite extreme, of deprivation or one food group denial dieting which is unhealthy for very long and unsustainable.

Yes I have friends who have chosen to lose weight this way, I DO wish them well, it just does not work as a healthy option for me, I want a lifetime of comfort around food, food pleasure, weight management, not dependence on a diet and being on a diet struggling with weight for the rest of my life.

I had planned to join in several start of February fitness slimming and challenges then other priorities that were very important to me took most of my time and I am only participating in a  simple one, with a group of friends.

Thinking about this, I know that this is the year when I ;learn how to incorporate a busy lifestyle of creative work with eating well and being active and fitness orientated plus having adequate sleep hours.

Today was a good start, I have visited both daughters and grandchildren, son in laws, four hours drive apart, managed time for a country walk, a fresh fruit and vegetable shop up, I am being creative now, working on my photos and writing and I may pack some art supplied for out next trip,  tonight.

I have also begun, to research more links to time and life management, as I know the secret to weight management for me is not in radical diets or extreme actions, it is as simple and as hard, as managing the lifestyle balance of doing all the things I love to do, gaining satisfaction from my life and not from a desire to overeat or seek out comfort foods of low nutrition.


I thought this was a fantastic article, in Kirstens Blog. 
Learning how to start jogging 
Just be careful not to slip in the snake oil and dodge the fake magic weight loss berries as you search the web with me for great helpful information :-) There is great information between the scams, if you keep in mind, you cannot buy weight loss, it 's about life management and we have to do it yourself, we will be safe from the hoax and the yo-yo forever.
