Hello Friends!

   I'm new to the world of blogging, so I hope you'll bear with me! I have just finished a week long stint, filling in as a substitute page administrator for a weight loss support group. I found that having that responsibility forced me to take a hard look at what I was doing so I made the decision to do a blog. I hope that this blog not only serves to keep me accountable but that it serves as inspiration for even just one other person. If I can do that, then I'll be thrilled! 

   I want to be healthier so that I can enjoy my children and grandchildren for as long as possible. So I started a healthy journey! I am counting calories, but simply because it helps me to see when and what I am eating. In the past 4 weeks, I have lost 10 lbs. by simply writing down everything I eat and by making healthier choices.   

  Exercise is the next tier. I know I have to exercise, however, I have osteoarthritis in my feet, knees, hands and back. Yes, I'm a mess! I can only walk a short distance without pain on a good day! If I try to push through the pain, I literally lock up! I have a physical scheduled for Oct. and I'm hoping to get some advice or treatment that will help. Trust me, I am not walking out of the Dr's office without a plan!

  So who are Chris, Chi & Ellery Anne, you ask? Well, those are the names of my two grandsons & my future granddaughter, if it's a girl, that is! We may have to change that name to the Chris, Chi & Alexander Scott Plan, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it! lol

I'm always looking for healthy new recipes, so if you have one that you love, please share it! 

Hugs! Grandma B
