Taking Care of Susie

2010 goal - to maintain my weight loss and improve flexibility as I continue to closely monitor my calorie intake and work out 3-5x/ week -- regardless of the stresses that come my way.

November 2009 Update: I was at the Dr. last week and weighed in. Since my January appointment, I am down 47 lbs on their scale. I found SP at the end of January, and had lost about 7 lbs by then so I'm updating my page to reflect the whole year.

November 2009 Update: I was at the Dr. last week and weighed in. Since my January appointment, I am down 47 lbs on their scale. I found SP at the end of January, and had lost about 7 lbs by then so I'm updating my page to reflect the whole year.

October 2009 Update: I'm still losing; guess I haven't found the right calorie range for maintenance yet. I really am happy where I am, and don't want to go lower, but it's hard to eat more when I'm satisfied. Don't want to eat "junk" just to increase the calories; I've worked too hard to learn to eat healthy. The Process continues ... and learning more is always good!

August 2009 Update: I've reached my goal of 155 lbs (in fact, am a bit under it) and so I've adjusted my weight loss ticker to show my maintenance goals: stay between 152 and 157 lbs. I hope to be able to encourage those who are on the journey -- if I can do it, so can you!! I need to stay active w/ SP to keep myself on track, too!

The past 4 years have been focused on taking care of my father and then settling his estate - and I let my own health suffer in the process. A goal for 2009 is to take care of ME and get healthy again. I KNOW all the right things to do; just have let stress override my knowledge. No more!

My Goals:
2010 goal - to maintain my weight loss and improve flexibility as I continue to closely monitor my calorie intake and work out 3-5x/ week -- regardless of the stresses that come my way.

My Program:
Having reached my goals, I am going to continue my exercise routine and add calories back in slowly, 'till I find the daily range that works for me.

To reach my goals, I will: work out with Trainer 2x/week and at least 3x/week on my own (at the gym or walking).
I will track all foods and stay under 1300 calories/day. I will drink at least 8 cups of Water/day.

Hi Susie, Wasn't church wonderful today? I love Sundays! I hope you have some quiet time today to spend with Jesus. This our day of rest...in Him.
I couldn't wait to tell you how much my dh and enjoyed the chicken alfredo!
What a great recipe! The chicken was so moist and tasty. It's a keeper in our house! We will definitely have it again. Thanks so much!
I really appreciate having you for a friend. You are a bright light in a dark world.
God has blessed me with you. I pray He blesses you too!
Have a super Sunday!
Your sister, Sue emoticon emoticon

Going to bed early - what a good idea!!! I hear my pillow calling out to me. It's saying, "Come enjoy some textile studies!!"

How amazing that you took yourself to the gym rather than taking a nap! I knew I found you motivating for very good reasons! I'm so glad SparkPeople includes the benefits of an online community; glad to have you as my Spark Friend!
