I Joined The Team of Sue, Mary Kay And Rocky

Sometimes you aren't looking for something and it finds you anyway. A few months ago I started my adventure with gout and I have been surprised by some of the things I've been finding out.

Less meat or chicken works out ok so far. Years on and off Atkins had me thinking how much of a carnivore I am. But we can change. Some days I don't even have meat or chicken or fish.

I had forgotten how much I like smoothies. When you make them at home you can add Stevia instead of sugar and still make them sweeter if that's how you like them.

An old friend and former Toastmaster got back in contact with me and told me about Isagenix and she is sensitive to my individual needs with regard to gout and doesn't try to make me fit into a one-size-fits-all regimen. She's also kind as well as smart and her mentors seems the same way. So I joined the team of Sue, Mary Kay & Rocky and now I start my Isagenix adventure. Here's my new site!

A Quick Ten Furlongs Before Breakfast

My wife and I like to go out for coffee sometimes on Saturday morning. (Actually, I have tea a lot of the time.) This morning when we got back from our time spent reading the paper and sharing a hot beverage I decided to walk the dog before I went into the house. This is a good strategy for getting more walking in. Mellow and I did a mile and a quarter (ten furlongs) before breakfast. How many times can you do that in a year? Even three times a week means 52 times 3 times 1.25 miles and that's 195 miles extra a year. That is...do whatever you're doing PLUS walk 1.25 miles three times a week and you will have walked an EXTRA 195 miles a year. You'll feel better and you will weigh more than five and a half pounds less than you do now. Six times a week (it only took me a little over 20 minutes) and you'll weigh 11 pounds less than you do. IF you changed NOTHING else! If you added in a better diet/regimen/life plan/discipline (whatever you call it) you can lose even more. Over 5 years that's 55 pounds of weight loss. Think about it.

Walk always.

Keep walking.
