So much for the glamour of the Oscars, now it’s time to get back down to earth and forget about trips, happiness and flag waving, not to mention figure hugging gowns. So let’s get serious about something that is usually preying on every woman’s mind during the winter months. Weight gain.
I expected to lose some weight while I was away but when I went on the scale yesterday I discovered I weighed the same as when I left. At least I hadn’t gained any weight. While away I read Richard Simmon’s blog every day and I have certainly learned a lot from him. A lot of what Richard writes about is wisdom we all know, having learned it from other sources over the years. I find Richard very inspirational and the only reason I wasn’t staying on course was because there was no room to exercise. I couldn’t even walk very well because the terrain was unsteady (and sometimes muddy).
But no more excuses. It’s time to get control of my eating habits and my exercise. I say that with a box of Pot of Gold at hand (my brother gave them to me for Valentine’s Day). Chocolates are my true weakness. I can forego cupcakes, cookies, chips, buns, and so forth. But it is really hard for me to say no to chocolate. The last couple of years I wouldn’t buy any candy over the Christmas holidays but I was weak this year.
Onwards and upwards. Richard lead the way!
