Introduction Text I am working on weight loss and general health improvement. I want to alleviate my osteoarthritis and high blood pressure, lower my cholesterol count and risk of a cancer recurrence, sleep better, reduce stress, be able to buy clothes that fit--just to be healthier and more confident all around. JUST DO IT! PLAN AHEAD! NO MORE EXCUSES! STOP, THINK, TALK TO YOURSELF. (In case you're wondering about my profile image, I taught English Renaissance literature. This is my favorite portrait of Queen Elizabeth I.) Retired as of August 5, 2015--woohoo!

To reach a healthy weight. To maintain mobility despite arthritis. To gain strength and endurance. To develop healthy eating habits. To lower my cholesterol count. To get off meds for high blood pressure. To exercise consistently. To decrease my risk of developing diabetes or having a cancer recurrence. To stick with a healthy lifestyle this time.

Keep food journal; aim for 1300-1500 calories per day. Increase fruits and veggies. Do at least 30 minutes of cardio 4 x/week or more. Do strength training (20 minutes) at least 3 x weekly.
