Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

Wonka that was an intersting article. I hate that they put so much salt in foods. I eat a lot of Asian food which is loaded with sodium. I have borderline high blood pressure and am trying non-medical alternatives to keeping it down, and may have to go salt free. Thanks for sharing the article.

I'm off to the gym here soon. I may not be eating too healthy because I'm going out to eat tonight to a fondu place. They have a vegetarian opion with veggies and tofu, but you dip it in the high fat/salt cheeses. I'm sure to love it.

I went yoga today and have been eating healthy. I'm making an Indian dish for dinner tonight.

Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

Tweety - Indian food sounds great! Last night we were exhausted after a very busy weekend. I had a bowl of tomato soup and half (gave the other half to my little boy) a grilled-cheese sandwich. I'm sure the sandwich was not the healthiest thing for me, but it sure tasted good.

I am meeting with a lady today to probably take over the volunteer position of teaching childbirth classes in our community. I think that will be good for my mental health since it is right on track with what I want to be when I grow up Tonight is also my last town board meeting as Mayor (also volunteer - so no money lost -whew!) and then my term is officially up which will be great for my state of mind. As much as I have enjoyed serving our community, I do NOT like politics and will be happy to be out of it - LOL!

Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

So no mory politics Sarah? Can't say that I blame you. Good luck with the childbirthing stuff.

I went to the gym today, 40 minutes of aerobics and weights.

You know what they say about not going to the grocery store hungry is true. While I stocked up on fruits and veggies, somehow two boxes of buy-one-get-one-free Cheezits wound up in my possession. Sigh...hopefully the spouse will eat some, he loves Cheezits. LOL

Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

Thanks Tweety - yeah, I did learn that politics is not my thing. The classes should be great though!

LOL - I know what you mean. I get my fix on purchasing junk food for my man too - he eats all the bad stuff and I try (try being the important word there) to stick with the good stuff. I've been bad lately, but I made a pact with myself to get back on track today. So far so good - but it is early yet

Glad that folks enjoyed the article!

My latest fitness venture is to find a new way to exercise at home...I'm exploring DVDs and the like. If anyone has any ideas, please share!

Good luck with the home fitness Wonka.

I finished the last of the Cheezits yesterday. My bad. But I did go to the gym and do weights and aerobics, so not all bad.

Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

I know what you mean Tweety - I am being bombarded by Easter candy and birthday cakes (daughter's first birthday was the 15th)! I did eat some birthday cake, but then I went for a big, long walk, so hopefully that helped equal it out a little bit.

Today I have been drinking tons of water! I am trying to eat smaller meals throughout the day and it is actually making me feel pretty good - yeay!

Re: Healthier Living Support Thread: PART TWO!

Good job Sarah!

I was real bad this weekend with the donuts and cupcakes at work for Easter.

I'm back on track today! I had a lot of salmon in my fridge when I went veg and am not unvegging my diet to eat them, but it's healthy omega 3's!
