Welcome my friends to our weekly issue of Journey with Friends. This is a time that we come together for support, for encouragement, for fellowship – all with one single goal in mind – to live better. Welcome to our journey to share our goals and our accomplishments and our disappointments and frustrations.
Together we can do this!
I exercised this weekend! I walked the block twice – what a trooper huh? LOL. No, I couldn’t resist my friends. I did do some walking last week and I’m trying to get back into the swing of things without donuts and chocolate. I tell you, it’s been a tough couple of weeks but I’m working on it.
I’ve come to realize that life is life. You are going to have stumbles. The most important thing is to get back on the horse and carry on. You can just stoop and simmer and what if. You keep charging on to the new you. It’s not a race. We are going to trip and fall. That’s when you lean on support from your friends like I do with all of you. I can’t thank you enough for being there with me during this time.
So my friends, how was your week?

The block cracked us up! My trainer has convinced me to give up all my vices for 3 weeks (so I kind of hate him, but am doing it anyway). It is going to be tough but hopefully worth it!

Mercury is in Retrograde, so the beginning of the week was pretty scary and challenging for Mama. But then my interview with Houdini was published ( thanks again! ), and she pulled herself together. She missed two walks this week. I got all of mine. Take heart, Fall is near, and it will be more fun when it’s cooler !

We say…never give up! Just decide if you absolutely have to have chocolate, make sure it’s good chocolate, not lame-o M&M’s or other cheap “impawstors,” ok? And then walk about the block a couple more times for good measure. 😉

That’s the best advice. You know everything in ‘moderation’. It’s a hard change of life but I really think it’s working! June

I started strong with 10,000 steps for two days. Then weather and prep took over, leading to sitting, listening to the rain. It seems when the exercise tanks, the calories go up. Something wrong with that picture! Monday was a good day to start the new week.

Amen to that. As Scarlett says, “There’s always tomorrow”. We just get back up on the horse and start again. You got this my friend. June
