A Fresh Start
Well, I’ve decided to give myself a fresh start.. I’m doing a number of things these days and hoping this will make a difference in my happiness.
1. I’ve got a skin condition called psoriasis, (hence the name, paperSkin) and I’m trying to get it under control. I’m doing this by using my topical medications, keeping moisturized and soon I will be taking an oral medication to get things under control.
2. I’m trying to lose weight! That is why I am here. I think getting into my old clothes and breaking the habits that have allowed me to gain 25lbs. in a year will help me feel better. I started on the Fat Smashers diet yesterday.
3. Making a point to get myself dressed up and look good. I started this a couple of weeks ago when I went and got a hair cut and highlights. I was starting to get some (I mean a lot) of gray hairs and I thought this would help to disguise them.
4. Get active, this relates back to no. 2, but it is also about getting me and my kids out of the house everyday. This is not always so easy living in Toronto, Canada, but I’m trying. When we can’t get out then we should be something active in the house.
So this is the plan. I will let you know how it is going as the days go by.
