Welcome to my adventure



Thanks for checking out my blog. I have worked in the health and wellness business for over 30 years but as they say in the movie trailers "this time it's personal". I need a wellness makeover. I am 56 years old and have several chronic health problems including psoriatic arthritis, diabetes, heart disease and Barrett's esophagus, all of which have been well managed. Lately though I have realized my eating is awful, my body composition is deteriorating my physical activity is
sporadic and mostly aerobic and my relaxation and sleep are terrible. I don't feel as well as I want to! So between now and July 2nd I will follow Canada's Food Guide and Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines (as I have advocated to hundreds, maybe thousands of clients over the years), and will document the adventure here. Not because I think there is a burning desire on anyone's behalf to read it... I just need a way to "seal the deal". Here's to Feeling Good!

Day 15...

Not a bad day but I really need to focus on getting the food groups all covered.  It is actually hard to fit all the great food in during the day.  I did have a little slip with a bad supper which was bad enough, but I realize it also throws off your evening and you end up not getting proper food.  On the good side I did get some exercise including some weight training.  The Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines recommend weights at least twice a week.  I have only done them once a week so time to pick that up.  So for today Eating is a 5/10 Exercise a 6/10 R&R 4/10 and Work and Learning 5/10.    Maybe I can fit in a little bit of studying before bed...
