Yes, that is the truth.
I have fallen off the healthy living band wagon...
I have not been active.
I have not been eating the right foods.
I have not cared enough to care that I don't care.
I have fallen into the trap of the depression that accompanies the change of seasons.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Summer!
I Love, love, love Fall.
I know, I am a season snob.
Summer gets more of my attention.
Summer is the season that I just cannot resist.
And yet, Fall truly is the season that I think of as my favorite.
Weird, huh?
Summer is when I am most active. Spending all of my time out of doors, in the pool, walking and running and swimming and eating farm fresh locally grown produce....
and then...
it just stops.
All of it.
The cold makes me hurt everywhere in a way that I cannot even begin to describe.
My hands become stiff.
My joints ache.
My knees and hips pop with every step.
I feel my age plus 50!
And so my weight has crept up and up and up until...
I am where I was at the start of the summer.
I have to start all over again.
This is a ride that I desperately want to get off of...
that I want to stop altogether...
So today I will go out and run errands.
Have lunch with a friend.
Spend time enjoying the sights and sounds of Fall in all her glory...
And take that first step to getting back on that proverbial wagon...
and try not to fall off again!
