Toni Bourlon's Journal, 29 December 2023

So as 2023 draws to a close, I log in and see my weight is even heavier than the beginning of the year😒 I thought that retirement would mean better health. I thought I'd be working out 1 hour a day, keep my house spotless, etc. Instead I've just become lazy and it shows. Well, all I can do is TRY to get back on track with those New Year's resolutions and such. Eating better is going to be challenging with grocery prices so high, so I'll need to rely on meal planning & careful shopping. My goal weight is still 141 lbs, which means I need to lose 17 lbs!😲 I have slacked off on exercise, still do it but not every day & certainly not for an hour! But I can do 40 minutes or so, I just need to get back to doing that daily. I'm still kind of lifting weights, I'm up to about 80 lbs on the leg press and 60 lbs on the lat pulldown. But maybe do it more than once a week? Of course, with the holidays the YMCA was closed Christmas Eve & Christmas day, and it will be the same for New Year's. I've still got my tread climber, some dumbells & a Pilates mat, so no excuses there! Still trying to figure out the housework, though....

Anyway, I hope everyone in FatSecret land has a Happy New Year, and may all those resolutions come true!

Don’t be hard on yourself. It helps to find a walking buddy or volunteer a little. My retirement was an adjustment too.
