Feeling Fit After Fifty

I recently went to my doctor for a yearly check up. All was well and I checked out pretty good.   I was SO thankful that my50+++  body hasn't given up on me yet.  I left feeling so blessed. I know I am lucky and that many people out there are suffering with medical issues.  I want to keep on keeping on and down deep inside I know I could do a better job taking care of this bod.  

Truth is, I've gotten lazy lately with workouts and less than disciplined with my eating habits.  I do a pretty good job of controlling my eating during the day, but when I get home it is another story.  I end of binging on whatever is around while I am cooking dinner.  Recipe for disaster!  So one thing my doctor did say was that I am up five pounds from last year and 15 points over on my cholesterol reading.  Yup....just taught cause and effect to my little second graders so I know I am reaping the result of my

For lunch I had a hard boiled egg, cucumbers and a handful of almonds. 
Dinner will be a hamburger from the grill....no bun and salad. 
I will have some sleepy time tea before bedtime instead of a sweet snack. 


I have the plan...now I just need the discipline!
