New Stuff!

Ok I’ve been doing this blog mainly for my weight loss, low carb, diabeties, exercise, etc.  Now I plan to add more of my own life tidbits. 

I have personally reviewed and sent out information to family and friends on products for years.  Now I thought, “Why don’t I put the down in the blog?” then lots of people could look for an honest, non-company driven opinion on products.

I hope to see some personal comments to some of the products that I review, by you, so that people, as well as myself, can get a more well rounded idea of the product/food/gadget.

RECIPES!!  I also put a link to my recipes that I have acquired for family.  Sometime I plan on making a family cookbook, but I guess in fact… I have it’s just online.  I will be adding more to the cookbook as I try and tweak recipes.  Most of the recipes are tried and true family favorites.  I added them to the web for my daughters to have an easy place to quick look at them and use while at college.

While I’m at it I might as well add a page for diet reviews.  I think I have tried so many I might as well review how they worked.

OK, so  I took a LONG hiatus……………….

I did some exercising here and there, but not anything continuous.  I’m re-dedicating myself to walking/running, etc. Did 2.06 miles on the treadmill this afternoon.  Walk/Run for 40min.

The weather is getting nicer again to be outside so I hope to ramp up.

Bob had back surgery on July 6th and we both have gained weight with his recovery.  His because of lack of movement and I guess I was sympathy gaining  Smile with tongue out

He goes back to the doctor this Friday to see how things are and hopefully he can get back to exercising.  His endurance is low and he’ll have to start slow, but he is determined!  So I will be too.  I have a little advantage at the moment to get my butt going and maybe catch up to where he may be shortly.
