Alicia’s Journey To Better Health

First I want to say thank you to all my bodyspace friends who have helped me through this difficult year. My grandmother found out that she had ovarian cancer in March. I have been taking care of her for the past 3 years, she died on Thursday. I spent so much time caring for her that I forgot to take care of myself. I know that she would want me to take care of myself now. It is going to be hard because I am now very out of shape. I have a diet and exercise plan that I, along with some of my bodyspace friends, put together. I am working on the diet this week and will start my exercise plan next Monday. I am starting the exercise portion on Monday because that is when my doctor said I can start exercising again( I have had a really painful back problem on top of everything else). I know that my grandmother would want me to take care of myself. I am going to do this not only for myself, but for all the people in my life. If you make yourself into the best you can be, you will be able to give your best to others.
