I have been thinking back to when I started on my new health plan. For the first time I was eager to start my journey. Since I am very detail oriented I needed to document, document, document. I got out my trusty food counter book, pad and spiral to document every morsel that goes in my mouth, the time of day, portion sizes, calories, etc. (I will go into more detail as we go along).
Since I am unable to do strenuous exercise I had to think about what I could do that was safe, fun, relaxing with pretty scenery. It dawned on me that mall walking was very safe. After all there are lots of people around, pretty store windows to look at, meet new people who were also enjoying their mall walking, the building is air conditioned, has restroom facilities, security officers and I could even get a healthy salad-no beverage, if I want, and I bring my own water.
I bought a pedometer and have a step-counter on my iPhone. I was all set to start my journey. It was great and I was walking 6-10 miles a day in the safe environment of the mall. The mileage was exciting and the time flew by.
Think about this and let me know what you think of this as a starting plan. I have added many more things to my new health plan.
Are you committed to your journey? Let me know how I can help you.
