I decided that I needed to become more accountable for myself and for what seems to be my lifelong journey to lose weight. So I decided that blogging would become my means of accountablitly and sharing. I am hoping to decide to join me on my journey and offer tips, tricks or words of wisdom!

I Am Back
Am not quite sure how many followed along with me when I was blogging more frequently, but I am back again, and I hope you follow along again. I have lost 11 pounds so far, and am exercising daily, it is a great feeling! I leave for a walk when Jimmy leaves for work in the mornings, it is so nice to be able to do that again. Plus I have drastically lowered my calorie intake, keeping a food journal is a great motivator to eat better. I have recently read some information on calorie-shifting, has anyone tried this or heard about it? It is a process of tricking your metabolism, and it does make sense. I have read a lot about it in the past few days and it sounds like something I might try this summer since I have a little more flexibility. The idea is to discover a baseline of calorie intake for yourself and then increase or decrease that by 400-500 calories every few days. The following website has some pretty good information on it, but there are lots more also. http://www.calorie-shifting.net/ I hope everyone is moving more and eating less, this is going to be a great summer for weight loss, I hope everyone joins in!!!! :o)

I totally agree with you it is so much easier to workout in the summer. I am so excited to get back on an outdoor walking routine.
