I've also dropped by from celia's blog and have joined your band of followers to give you support and encouragement. <br />I won't bore you with all the details but I battled with bad health and weight and finally was chosen by a magazine to promote healthy living and to inspire others. Hope I can cajole and comfort you in equal measures. <br />Oh yes and I used to be a personal trainer. So, no slacking now. :)<br />Warm wishes from a blowy UK<br />CarolCarol E Wyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12375439814725846546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668671667957169984.post-82724608371175792862011-05-20T11:32:51.819-04:002011-05-20T11:32:51.819-04:00..."Yes this is a lifelong commitment but it ......"Yes this is a lifelong commitment but it doesn't mean I can take a lifetime to achieve it." <br /><br />So well said.

Never give up; it's not an easy road but all together we're getting there. I was paralyzed almost completely last year in January and after getting out of the hospital and on Prednisone (I'm still tapering down, not off yet...) I was too weak to even open the cap of a jar. It hurts when you have to ask your husband for all those little things. But with a good healthy diet, lots of fruits and veggies; no sugar for me as I had high blood sugar levels that I want to keep where they are right now = perfect! That helps a lot for feeling well in general and after my husband's open heart surgery (yep, 2010 was our BINGO year...) we both started to work out at the local Hospital's Fitness Center. My husband finished his rehab and I promised to join him IF he got admitted. He did and I got approved to after my medical check. So that helps each other and I must say often I cannot believe how far I've come again! Still ways to go but we get there with dedication and perseverance. Discipline with a capital D I always taught in all my seminars; now I have to apply that to my own life as well.<br /><br />Lots of love and be strong together; set a goal for a couple of months and you get there - NO DOUBT!<br /><br />MarietteMariettehttp://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
