First Post

It's lunch time and I just had a turkey and cheese sandwich. No chips. Great! But, that doesn't say much about this blog, does it?

This blog is created to be a pivotal force of support to encourage weight loss, light meal eating, and fun physical activities. OK, basically it is for us to describe our struggles and triumphs in achieving a life of total health, thus the title, "We Fit for Life".

Please feel free to write about feelings, struggles, work-outs, fun activities, goal settings and accomplishments.

I look forward to reading and writing entries. If you know of anyone who would like to join our little goup as an author, please let me know.

  2. This has been my experience for the last 3 or so days of "dieting."

    It's not really dieting! It's more about making better choices. For example: last night I went out to dinner to a restaurant. It was a steakhouse, and I was so tempted to get the biggest steak possible with a baked potato (yum!).

    I ended up getting the grilled chicken salad with leafy greens. My choice for dressing was blue cheese (so I did splurge there), but I didn't have any of the apptetizer bread.

    After all was said and done, I was fine! For the last three days, it's been easier than I thought it would be.

    I always thought food was my vice and there was no way I could change, but it's mostly a mental wall that prevented me from making the better choices.

    Ok, so let's not get crazy - it's only been 3 days, but I feel great!
