Journal Thoughts - 9/14/14

I think a lot...always have. I find it very therapeutic to jot down thoughts and feelings...something about putting it on paper that seems to help me evaluate where I am physically, emotionally and spiritually.  So, I'd like to share my health, fitness and nutrition thoughts with you...my blog readers. 

I love to talk to people about their health...I think it's even more important to me now that I'm older and I realize how important it is to watch what you eat...and the need for exercise.  Believe me, poor choices and habits will catch up to you...I've discussed this with so many people...it doesn't have to be that way...

So, does a person's metabolism slow as they age? I've not done any reading on it, but in my personal opinion, I think it's the individual who slows down. And it seems like today more than ever with the availability of so much food....most of it not worth you putting it in your mouth...people don't always make the best choices...for whatever reason...convenience....money...laziness...there are as many excuses as there are people.

I'm not trying to be harsh or judgmental.  I've been there....far more times than I would care to admit.  It's a slippery slope, and once you start to fall...you just keep rolling and it picks up speed...gets out of control...and before you know it, you've put on unneeded and unwanted pounds, and you can't find the 'get-up-and-go' to get back on track. I know how it feels.  And I feel for you...I care for you and for your health....probably more than you know.

I will continue to share my journal thoughts...I hope that one of them will touch your mind, and you'll take it to heart and look after your health properly....life is so much more than junk food...that won't get you very far....you are what you eat....I want to help you....please feel free to email me with your questions....(bfittpersonaltraining@aol.com) I'm here to encourage you and help you.  I know it's not easy...I haven't always been this way, and I haven't always looked the way I do now. 

Below is a picture of me from 2000 when I weighed nearly 200 pounds...and one from just a little over a month ago....some 60 pounds lighter....feeling so much better! Always...take care! <3
