It has been a year since I made the decision to take control of my diet.  Since November of last year, I have shed twenty pounds and managed to keep it off even through holidays, family gatherings, etc.  I learned that it is not a single action that produces the success but many, many small actions that have a synergistic effect.  I wondered at the beginning if I could lose the weight and, then could I maintain my target weight?  I am ecstatic that the goal has been realized. 

This weekend I cleaned out my closet and purged all pants larger than a 32" waist.  The significance of this speaks to my new found faith in positive results and I could not be happier.  And, I don’t mind the continual question of "Are you really 60?"  I am truly having fun re-inventing the perception of what "60" is and can be.  It is a blessing to have this opportunity!

In January, I will celebrate a year of being involved in some type of training regimen and look forward to seeing what that milestone will be.
