Getting Serious about Getting Healthy

Well, it is getting awfully close to a VERY BIG birthday and it has caused me to stop and re-evaluate my past abuse of the body God gave me to be His temple here on earth. This past year I have taken several steps to make my life healthier:

1) I lowered my cholesterol from 247 to 165 through natural means (niacin & fish oil) (YEAH!)
2) My friend Tam & I really got serious about walking every morning this summer
3) I got rid of having a period through an easy procedure (Uterine ablation) (Double YEAH!)
4) I started watching "The Biggest Loser" and decided it was time to get my weight down!
5) Now, Tam & I (since it is cold!) have been doing "The Biggest Loser" Cardio workout for 3 weeks (Triple YEAH!!!!!!!!)
6) The biggest healthy step is doing "Stepping Up" a Beth Moore study that really made me think! I know I NEED to "Step UP" each and every day for the rest of my life.

As I get ready for just another birthday, I realize I need to thank God for all he has blessed me with in the past 50 years! Now maybe with a healthier body I can keep up with my grandbabies!

    Well, NancyB, I don't know how close it is to your BIG birthday but it is very, very close to mine! (next week, in fact) This will be the last year of another decade before I enter the realm of the really old!

    I think it's depressing me more than I would like to admit.

    I've worn my computer out checking for updates on your blog. Glad to see you posting again!!
