Continued Ripples

Its a New Year!  Many persons set diet and exercise as their resolution. I have learned of freinds and family in 3 states at least partially motivated/intrigued by our progress. They are joining us in exercise and change of diet. Yippee!  Steve and I plan to continue in our quest for healthier living for 2012.  I sent all the remaining Christmas cookies and associated goodies with Steve for the John Deere workers to enjoy. Enough!

We are still working out 5-6 days per week. We have contracted with Wyatt Knapper a personal trainer at  the West YMCA we begin our first session next week!

There is a new bulletin board posted by my favorite elliptical at the West YMCA. Some great tips and thought provoking statements. Credit should go to the YMCA and Hyvee dietitians.  See below.

Note the line that says "70% of body changes come through diet"! Out with the cookies here. Now back to focusing on whole grains, Omega-3's, 5 A-day, and dairy! Increasing metabolism is not quite enough. More hard work for the New Year!
