How many steps do you get?

It has been the buzz that you need to get 10,000 steps a day to affect your health in a positive way. Some people are really motivated by that number and regularly attempt it and use their fitbit to track. I have had clients whose device keeps track of arm movements, hmmmm. I don’t think that is what we’re aiming for. You could just use the old school pedometer to keep track if you are not into technology and you just want something to help you see how you are doing.

The real point I would like to make is that it is important to have some kind of goal. I always say anything ... Read More...

Health is the best goal!

How are you today? What are your health goals for 2020? Do you have any? Have you thought about it this year or has your busy schedule kept you in the same old routines? Where do you see yourself in a year from now if you keep doing what you have been doing?

Did you know that 30 extra calories in a day is 3 pounds in a year? Are the foods you are choosing adding up to unwanted calories? Do you feel overwhelmed by the amount of information out there about what is nutritious and what you should and should not be eating?

If you have been in a vicious cycle and you are not happy with... Read More...

Set some good goals for 2020

Let’s talk about the pancreas! Yep, I know that sounds exciting right. What’s my motto…or at least one of them, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.  So what do I need the pancreas for when I can just fix my hair and makeup and look good on the outside?? As I have been aging (and don’t laugh so are all of you) I have come to believe that feeling good has moved up ahead of looking good. Now I plan to always look my best, but I know that wrinkles and changes are as sure as the sunrise for every human who lives to a good old age.

Fitness in the New Year

Wow 2020 is about here! Where does the time go? How about that fitness commitment you made for 2019 how did that work for you? If you made a new year’s resolution for 2019 that you didn’t fulfill don’t beat yourself up just get up and start again. How many times does it take to make a success of something? Depends on the task and the circumstances and most importantly the commitment. Make the goal and then plan the small steps it will take to help you reach it. If you are as old as I am you will remember the “little engine that could” he said “I think I can,... Read More...

Have you started a fitness program and fizzled out? That is exactly how I am with this blog! I get excited start something and then….fizzle fizzle!

Many of you have completed college, raised children or still are, maybe you are helping with a grandchild. All commitments take determination and sacrifices of time and energy. If there ...
