Introduction Text I am now a 71 year old, obese, wife, mother, and grandmother, sister & aunt from Pennsylvania. I have been eating smarter. Had lost a significant amount of weight. Then gained about 80 lbs. back, from the end of 2016 to 2018. Slowly turned it around in 2019, down about 25 -30 lbs. So, in 2020 I am committing to get back to healthier eating, moving more, and living healthier! I need motivation to exercise, make myself go out. I am striving to sleep 5 hours most nights, eat cleaner, smarter, and dump the negative mental messages. I need to avoid junk..both in my food choices and life! Avoiding Stress and anxiety is a battle. But, I CAN ~ I WILL ~ and I WON'T QUIT!

To eat smarter. Break the dessert habit. be able to walk easier, and for a longer distance. To be comfortable exercising. Or, comfortable going OUT . And every day move more, smile, and learn something, be able to count at least one blessing to be thankful for, and to sleep at least 5 hrs. a night.

Think Eat..no more mindless eating! But DO NOT Think about what people say, think, and do when they look at me. Move some everyday! Stay Motivated! Keep Blood Glucose low and level. Lights out by 11 p.m., shut off the thought train, and SLEEP!
