I don’t know about you, but\u00a0 I’ve discovered some interesting extra pounds recently.\u00a0 Not only am\u00a0 I eating more but I’m also moving less.\u00a0 It seems\u00a0 with each passing day, I’m older and\u00a0 rounder.<\/p>\n

Sometimes I feel like I can’t win this battle.\u00a0 Then, I think about my situation and I realize that I can win this battle.\u00a0 I need to go on a diet.<\/p>\n

The last time I went on a diet, I lost almost three dozen pounds.\u00a0 That was a long time ago.\u00a0 Almost thirty years ago, to be exact.\u00a0 I kissed carbs goodbye and the pounds went along with them.<\/p>\n

This time I think I can have a more successful diet and my life will be easier, too.\u00a0 So…I’m taking this diet week-by-week.\u00a0 I plan to lose weight using newer, more effective, techniques.\u00a0 I plan to be healthier.<\/p>\n

I hope to do some more interesting things along the way, too.<\/p>\n

Will you join me?<\/p>\n

I’m hoping to\u00a0 share\u00a0 effective weight-loss tips to make weight loss easier and more fun.\u00a0 I’m also hoping I’ll be able to keep the weight off!<\/p>\n

For my first week on this diet, I’m thinking of ways to move more.\u00a0 I’m getting active for more energy.<\/p>\n

I have a weekly zoom yoga\/fitness class with Carolyn Abedor on Thursday mornings.\u00a0 I would prefer to have two classes each week with her but I’m working\u00a0 on Tuesday mornings when she offers her other class.\u00a0 I would love to rearrange my work schedule but, so far, have been unable to do so.<\/p>\n

I spend a few\u00a0 minutes on a personal trampoline each day.\u00a0 Reflexologists love personal trampolines and I’m no exception.<\/p>\n

At least twice daily,\u00a0 my 5-pound chihuahua walks me down the street.\u00a0 That will soon end when the snow comes.\u00a0 Taco can’t stand icy roads.<\/p>\n

So, I’m seeking other active options.<\/p>\n

I try to walk more at work and I like to walk\u00a0 more when I food shop.<\/p>\n

A new goal is to put in about 300 extra steps every day – no matter what.\u00a0 I plan to add more physical activities over time until I’ve move these 300 steps to 30 minutes of daily exercise.<\/p>\n

I’m searching for low-impact activities on exercise videos such as YouTube and Amazon.\u00a0 I’m planning to check out some videos at the library.\u00a0 I also plan to contact my area hospital to see what programs are available at its wellness center.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you for allowing me to share this journey with you.\u00a0 I wish us all success in this quest for better health and a better weight.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, for this week, Let’s Move!<\/p>\n

I’m hoping you’ll share this article with your preferred social media network.<\/p>\n
