Hello all!

I am kind of excited and hopeful. I had one of those McDonalds ~ Go Active Adult Happy Meals today. Included was a step pedometer and little booklet with a walking program. The booklet listed a web site for McDonalds ~ on there you could download a page with a step log.

My husband helped me the other day to make a food log. So, I have the food log, step log, pedometer. I have all the tools. I hope I can be a planner and doer and have some follow through.

I haven't given up ~ just seem to take a winding road to my goal. Wish me luck. Hoping my enthusiasm doesn't dwindle.

Gayle

Good luck!!!!!!!!

I *know* you can do it!

Gayle, Believe me as you go you have to make it enthusiastic even when you really don't want to. It is a state of mind. Even when I don't feel like doing it I think about how bad I want to loose this weight and I just do it! Try lots of new things and keep coming up with fresh new ideas for your choices in food and exercise and then you won't tend to have as many problems staying with it. I know you can do it. It's got a great payoff in the end!
