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 One...

It was a pretty good start to things.  You can eat a lot of food on Canada's Food Guide!  The day is over and I still have a milk, a couple of grains and a couple of veggie servings still available.  I had a great salad for supper and an excellent walk on the trails by Q-Plex.  No real relaxation but I am hoping to get to bed early.  I score it 7/10 for eating 6/10 for exercise 5/10 for R&R  and 6/10 for work and learning.  Not a bad day at all!
