I saw my orthopedist yesterday and he x-rayed both shoulders and knees because of my increasing pain. After looking at the films, he said, "On a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being the worst case of arthritis I'e seen, you're a six - in both shoulders and knees". He says I wil need joint replacement surgery, ultimately. So, it will be easier for me if I take off some weight.RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-92020813571202872832011-01-13T04:48:33.109+00:002011-01-13T04:48:33.109+00:00Walking is not only good for the body, but also fo...Walking is not only good for the body, but also for the soul!

While we were waiting for our new house to be ready I had to walk with dog every day, some times two and three times; and I lost weight during that time, but it was soooo cold and miserable that as soon as the new house was finished and the fences repaired, I went back to just letting dog go out on her own.

Your journaling is like Morning Pages, a technique recommended by Julia Cameron in her book The Artist's Way. It starts you off on your way to becoming a writer (if that's what you want). If not,then do it for pure pleasure. Good for you!<br /><br />Walking helps me keep my weight in check too. Really. You do have to commit and it sounds like you're starting off on the right foot.<br />You go girl! <br />Oh, for my resolution? I am going with the word "confidence" this year.

I never make New Year resolutions because as soon as I miss a day of whatever it is I beat myself up and feel a failure.<br /><br />This year, I am not calling it a resolution but I am determined to eat my yogurt every morning and an apple every night. I figure it is not much but small habits can lead to bigger habits.<br /><br />I have the feeling that you are going to do a really good job in setting your mind to accomplishing your desires.Jules~https://www.blogger.com/profile/13732679095832415575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-76474144331689995912011-01-10T13:15:26.146+00:002011-01-10T13:15:26.146+00:00First of all, good for you for keeping with your w...First of all, good for you for keeping with your writing every day! I used to keep a journal, but I got away from it for some reason, and now I can't seem to get back into the habit. Losing weight and exercising is on my resolution list, too.
