Glad to see you in the blog-o-sphere. I ...Hi Patty! Glad to see you in the blog-o-sphere. I just added your blog to my reader - looking forward to taking inspiration from you my dear! I managed to put on 25 lbs since moving to Boston - depression, then depression meds are what I mostly blame, but there is probably other stuff like age and nutrition going on too! I'm right there with you on eating right most of the time (had healthy vege soup for dinner tonight with a piece of whole wheat toast). But I struggle with sweets when I'm stressed or bored. We have jars of candy on the kitchen counter at work - 15 feet from me! My latest strategy for taming that temptation is a bet with Tom - if I eat that stuff I have to do his dog walks (early morning - I am not a morning person!) for a week. I'm so honest wiht him I'd never lie about it - so if keeps me away from that temptation. The scale hasn't budged for me despite signing up with a personal trainer (2 times per week), walking/running with my dog daily... I know I need to do more, but one would think that I'd manage to lose something! I recently found out from my doc that I was vitimin D deficient - I'm hoping that now that I'm getting a handle on that, it will help my metabolism to get going properly again. <br />- Sarah TSarah Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648271315206010571noreply@blogger.com
