The young boys cart and horses
We had our weigh in today and I was down .2 for a total of 36.4, Jan was up this week as she didn't feel well all week. My activity was down this week as I only went to the gym once, I'm now using the ActiveLink and committing to more days in the gym this week and looking forward to see how many activity points I can earn. One thing that ActiveLink will do is set up a 12 week activity program that should motivate you to accomplish the end goal. I led a couple of meetings Monday and enjoyed presenting the topic, which was activity.
Not getting enough activity, here are a few suggestions to help get started:
- Chose an activity that you enjoy
- Make sure you have the proper clothing and or equipment
- Monitor your activity ( Pedometer, ActiveLink, Track)
- Schedule it - put it on your calendar
- Join a fitness center
- Buy or rent some DVDs to exercise at home
- Find an exercise buddy
- Make the commitment!
Great works are performed not by strength,
but by perseverance.
This weeks food find is for the real sweet tooth because you usually get a free sample when you buy these.
The recipe can either be an appetizer or a main dish, enjoy.
