Continue On Exercise and Diet

Everyday I do have the opportunity to walk
in one fashion or another. If it is raining I
walk indoors primarily at the YMCA. My
goal is to take at least ten thousand steps
in a day and sometimes more. For me that
comes to five miles as two thousands steps
equals on mile.

Though I have done quite well losing weight

as you can imagine it isn't as easy as walking.

By the way, since I did physical therapy before

joining the YMCA I do exercises as well as

the walking. Doing sit ups and push ups along

with stretches I do at the YMCA as well at

home.

The diet I am on actually helps if I slip and

eat something like junk food. When I do so

I eat small portions. Most times I am able

to eat fish, fruit and vegetables, On rare

occasions I will have red meat.  For a while

I ate chicken but I found it a problem digesting

in my stomach so for me I stay away from it.

My will and goal where I am at  about half way

of losing the weight keeps me going. Not easy

on some days but I figure if I do slip it is only

for one day. I hope it helps you if your in the

same boat as I am trying lose weight and stay

in shape. Amen!
