OK, not really sinned but overate during the holidays. Shock! Time to get back on the dieting horse as it were. Time to focus my New Year’s resolutions of losing those pesky pounds that seem to jump on to my body when I am not looking. I know how it happens; I just choose the chocolate over the carrot sticks. Welcome to my reality.
My niece Casie just laughs when I talk about my diet blunders. I wish I could do the same thing.
But it is time to get back to my mission at hand. After all, I am going to see Joy Bauer in a month and I don’t want her to think that I fell off my wagon. She is coming to Lakewood to help kick off a Live Well Lakewood campaign that several of my friends are launching here in our town.
It is going to be a day-long event that we cooked up to provide people with the tools to live a healthier life. Joy is coming to talk about nutrition and all of its benefits. Plus she is doing a book signing for her LIFE Diet book that hit the bookstores just before Christmas.
My copy arrived the day after Christmas, just in time for me to use it to beat myself upside of my head for over eating all those buttery holiday cookies.
Lisa’s New Year’s resolution: Reach my goal of 140 pounds by eating healthy meals and working out every day. I know that I can do it. I have to make myself a priority and then stick with my plan. This is the hard part for me but it has to start with the simple steps. Making my health my number 1 priority is the best way to start off any year.
