To Begin Again

A new year and a good time to begin again.

So far, over the past year, I have lost 17 pounds.

It's not the first time I have done that, I have lost more in years past.

But I have never been able to keep it off.

This time has been different.

Even though I have not been trying to loose any weight these last couple of months, I haven't been really paying attention either to what I have been eating.

And since the middle of summer, I haven't been tracking my food.

I still eat pretty good - more sugar than what I should be eating does seem to find it's way into my diet though.

Exercise is still a priority - but not as much as in the warmer months - the lake is frozen for swimming and the morning exercise routine gets done about half the time now.

But I must be doing something right - the weight has stayed off.

So, as the new year begins, I will start to pay more attention again and see what happens.

From what I am seeing, it can only be a good thing!
