My New Health Journey

My New Health Journey

It’s the end of the week.  I am back to my blog.  I haven’t taken to the page in a few weeks.  I have been dealing with life and stuff and have finally found the time to put some of my thoughts on paper.

I have been considering my health for a long time now and for the last year or so have really started to see the signs of age creeping up on me.  I have some health problems that could be lessened if I was in better physical condition and in the last while I have been really looking at my life in a new way.

I have made a lot of changes in different areas of my life in the past few years and taking retirement was a good start to eliminating a lot of the stress in my life, I have always eaten fairly healthy, but I love to cook and bake so it is really difficult to go totally healthy with food.

I have never been into exercise and definitely not participating in group sports but I love to swim and ride my bike and walk so I do have a few good forms of exercise to fall back on.  Unfortunately, right now I am dealing with some health issues that leave me with very little energy and I do not feel like doing a lot of exercise. 

I am going through a lot of tests right now to find out why I am feeling the way I am feeling.  But I have decided I have to commit to a program and stick to it.  I have joined a group of women and a coach on Facebook. We are all like-minded and are all on a health journey.  Each of us has our own journey, but we all want to support one another in our pursuit of our goals. 

I have done all the prep work (ie start weight, measurements etc.) now down to the work.  I have committed to 2 months to start with.  I can then reassess after that. 

I’ll keep be back with more information as I progress through my program.
