I am a baby boomer who wants to be healthy and happy. I retired in September 2012. I have had a weight problem most of my adult life. I have tried Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig and many other diet plans. I have come to realize that what I needed was a lifestyle change. I lost my husband 3 years ago.

    GOOD MORNING EVERYONE.
    It's a beautiful day here in New York City.
    I will be out for the whole day today. It is my sons birthday. We will be going to dinner this evening. Not to worry I already did the tracker. Steak, half of a baked potato(will share with hubby),salad and a diet coke.One bite of my sons birthday cake, for luck. Will stay on track.
    Grandson is coming too. We will be taking him to Van Cortlandt Park, to the duck pond to feed the ducks and then to play ground. So lots of walking today,bending and pushing grandnson on the swing.
    Enjoy your weekend

    Thank You for visiting my blog. Motivational Magnets on my Fridge #4

    Looking forward to getting to know you better.

    You will find so many helpful and knowledgeable people on Sparks emoticon

    I have only been here 16 days and have lost 10 pounds.
    The key is the food tracker, and keeping moving.(the moving part is had for me due to health problems, but I'm getting better at it.

    I just signed up for the Biggest Looser group, I am hoping it will keep me motivated. The group doesn't start till Sept. 28, but sign up is now as they only take a certain amount of people.
