Our Journey to Health: March 2010

Welcome

This is a blog that was motivated by mom's emergency visit to the hospital. I, like many of you, want to be a healthier individual. I don't like it when the people I love are threatened by their poor health and I like it even less when that threat could be fatal. I want to be a healthier individual that can also help others by motivating and informing them while undergoing and experiencing my own personal journey towards good health.

So please, feel free to blog about your successes, your failures, your healthy recipes, your personal thoughts, motivational thoughts and feelings, things that exercise our minds, physical exercises or exercise routines that work well, things that exercise or strengthens our spirits, or whatever fits into the category of good health.

Swimming

Ah, swimming has been great, although it is a bit spendy! I swam 3 times this past week...its better on my joints. I have tried to stick to a diet of 1800 calories also. I lost about 6 pounds last week just by moving and watching my food intake. I am more conscious of that now.

There is a lap pool at school that I can use for free. Now I have more motivation, I need to make it there everyday this week so I need to get up in the morning, no more sleeping in too much. The hope is to get some rest, we'll see!

Good luck and have a great week!
