[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 232853, member: 3907"] Hello everyone. Sorry I'm so late to this. Glad to hear that everyone is either sticking with or renewing a commitment to healthy living. Sounds like you're all off to a great start for the new year. I have been sticking to a (mostly) healthy eating regimen, and I'm proud to say that I have been able to stick to my No Cheesies resolution since September 2008. This is in a large part due to husband's diet. It's really cruel to sit there and pig out on cake and cookies when he's not even allowed to eat corn or carrots. We just don't have junk in the house, so I don't have the opportunity. My big struggle right now is finding balance between work and everything else. The contract I was on last year had bouts of extreme busy-ness interspersed with lovely long calm periods when I had lots of time to pursue hobbies, do things and take care of myself. This new contract is a constant treadmill of busy. It's not (quite) overwhelming, but it is a lot. I feel as though I'm just working all the time and can't carve out time to do anything other than that. I know that what I have to do is just...get up from my desk and go for a walk at lunch. Or go home and put on the Latin Dance DVD that husband gave me for Christmas. Or shovel the driveway. Or walk down the hill to the supermarket, and then back up with the groceries. There are so many small, easy things I can do to build exercise into my day. I'm just struggling with it. I'll have to think on it for a while. I don't think it's depression, because I bounce out of bed rarin' to go. I don't think it's lack of motivation. Maybe I'm just letting my job consume me...not the best approach to balance... Any and all suggestions are welcome ladies. This is an issue I've always struggled with. Trinity [/QUOTE]
