MNABOY'S RAILS TO HEALTH

Joined SP in 2007 in response to my youngest telling me diets were not good for me because I would work the diet to my goal and start back eating as I did that lead me to need to lose weight. She attached SP's home page and stated it was a good tool to use when I decided to take control of my life again. I had both knees replaced and began to walk a little but didn't pay much attention to SP until my back pinched a nerve and I had to have surgery to be able to walk . Then I began to read and ...
Joined SP in 2007 in response to my youngest telling me diets were not good for me because I would work the diet to my goal and start back eating as I did that lead me to need to lose weight. She attached SP's home page and stated it was a good tool to use when I decided to take control of my life again. I had both knees replaced and began to walk a little but didn't pay much attention to SP until my back pinched a nerve and I had to have surgery to be able to walk . Then I began to read and pay attention. I've have lost over 100 pounds that have stayed off and am working on losing another 50 or so. Tracking my intake and exercising is my key and teams are the support that keep me doing both. Love the outdoors and live in AR where we have all you could want, white sand bars, hills and mountains, lakes, streams and rivers, trails galore and great people. Have to travel to visit to confirm how blessed we are. Three children and three grandchildren are great reasons to travel.

My Goals:
It is my goal to reach 200 pounds.

My Program:
Tracking everything I eat and drink and staying under 1900 calories a day. I plan to walk 3.2 to 5 miles a day 6 days a week.

Personal Information:
I live in east Arkansas on "The River" and am blessed to have the delta and Crowley's Ridge which provides unlimited outdoor activity and sports. Also, we have a great history created over the years and have Civil War sites recreated as well as original sites preserved. We have one of the largest Blues Festivals in the world. Always something great happening.

Other Information:
I always thought I would retire and my wife and I would hike and camp, sans Scouts, just the two of us, and I would write an article about the railroads in my home county. Physically we will have to work to be able to hike flat ground!

Thank you for your very kind words on my race blog.

When I run races it seems I'm always struggling & it's so hard. If anything I probably scare people away from running. lol.

Me too. After being put out of comission for my shoulder and back, I'm really starting to learn some lessons as it looks like my shoulder isn't healing and I'm really scared about surgery, but if that's what it is, so be it.

Thanks for the comment on my vegetable blog. Eating all the vegetables I want seems to fill me up so I don't want a donut or half a loaf of bread.

I hope you're having a great day! emoticon

That is so true. I don't know if I would be as determined if my daughter wasn't in my life. I think the cleanest my diet has ever been was when I was pregnant with her and when I was nursing.
