A Family Affair

Weight loss should become a family affair. Whether or not everyone needs to lose weight, everyone can benefit from a healthier lifestyle. One family in Utah did just that. Check out the link below!

Carbohydrates

So there are these things called carbohydrates. Have you met them? They are delicious.

Well, it turns out they aren't so good for weight loss. And it turns out they are all I ever want to eat. 

Not so much the sugary candy stuff, though watermelon laffy taffys have been enjoyable lately, but the breads, crackers, and pastas. They are such a staple of our every day diet. 

Have I mentioned how much I love muffins? Just sitting here thinking about muffins... Maybe I should make some bran ones, then I don't have to feel guilty, right?

I think I enjoy carbohydrates too much...

Everything other than physical

I have to admit, the last few days have been focused on just about every type of health except physical... I did go for a walk yesterday. But some unpleasant things came up and I've been working on having a positive mental attitude along with being a forgiving stable person. I don't regret the focus. I know you have to be all around healthy to have a joyous life.

So that's where I'm currently at. I've been thinking a lot about what to post. This is the best I have on a Wednesday morning.

The Weigh-In

So I weighed in last week. Not as bad as I was expecting. It's like January never happened.

Who needs January anyway, right? 

The Fat One

So I'm sitting here watching The Lorax, again.

You know that scene when the Lorax and the animals steal the Once-ler's bed to put it in the river? The animals take off and the fat bear lags behind. By the time fat bear reaches the shore, the animals take off along the shore and he is left behind yet again.

So I was recently told about Couch to 5k. Pretty cool. Look it up. Anyone can become a runner!

Also, a friend shared on Facebook that during her birthday month she runs the same number of miles as the number of years she's lived. Pretty awesome! And very do-able if I spread the miles out throughout the month... Plus thank heavens March has 31 days.

I'm pretty excited about these new goals.
Does this mean I'm going running tonight, nope.
But someday! :)

Let's get rid of fat bear syndrome together! Who's with me?
