The last couple of weeks has been a lot of exercising and trying to eat good. I found This wonderful website that has helped me to keep track of all my foods, exercise, and water intake...and a lot more. I have found a wonderful community of people who are in the same boat, so to speak as I am...they are on a journey to health and fitness.
So I have been logging my foods through that site as well as all my exercises and water intake...I love that you can go to your home page and see how everyone is doing and post how and what you are doing as well. I have found that my new friends are very sweet and motivational, and it is always nice to log in and see that someone left you a note of encouragement.
This is mostly what I have been eating
Coffee
Creamer
Eggs
Cheese
Strawberries
Chicken
Squash
Corn Tortillas
Salsa
Onions
Nectarines
Salad
Well anyway you get the idea...healthy stuff
Although I did have a few days where I went off the grid and ate not so healthy stuff...like Shari's restaurants All American Panini Sandwich...w/fries and no sugar added Apple Pie...yes, that's right not good choices at all, but boy was it good. We won't even talk about when I ate chips w/dip, pizza and orange slices (candied), that'll just be our secret. Shhh!
I have been walking a lot and riding my bike (Choncho) as well as working out on my weight machine with my son training me...I just need to add some more muscle so I can burn more fat and get these last few lbs off of me. It seems like the last few pounds takes a lot more work and a lot more time. I will post my progress in a few weeks.

If your new photo is a reflection of the new you - then you look really good now, Shannon!
Glad you checked in. Some of us were wondering if you were still around. Glad to know you are.
Getting rid of the last bit of weight is a challenge. You've been reducing calories and building muscle. But muscle is more dense than fat, meaning that you're putting on weight while losing fat, because of your exercise. Which is why it seems the last bit of weight (actually fat) is tough to lose. But you'll do it!
Wow. your blog has become an inspiration for me.. since time immemorial the weight issues are deep settled in my mind. Great You are still with me.. Write more often here.. in fact a day to day progress about your health regime will be more invoking for all of us.
