Ok, so here I am writing in again. Over the past six months or so, I have taken steps to take some kind of control over my health. One of which is going to the gym on a regular basis. But, it would seem I have reached a plateau of sorts. I am not sure if this is good or bad. I mean, I still go, but am I doing enough?I do about 45 minutes of cardio every time I go. I do circuit training on the equipment and every once in a while, my husband gets me into the weight room to do some real muscle building. When I get done, I feel sore...a good sore, too.
I enjoy my workouts but I don't seem to be dropping the weight like I wanted. Oh, well. As long as I keep going, I'll know its a good thing right?
One thing I noticed on a recent blog from Alexandra is a posting about the list of things a 90 year old woman had written for a graduating class speech she gave. I believe it was printed in her local paper and it has now made the rounds via email...around the world, I am sure.
I actually recieved that same article in my email a few days ago. I printed it out and placed it on my refridgerater for any and all to read. It has some very valuable advice to it. I actually saw my son reading some of it the other day. I'm glad.
I think about this blog alot and what it is I want to say to anyone reading it. I want anyone and everyone to be very aware of Heart Disease and its devastating effects on an individual and the people who love them. Without saying "I want..." too much, its important to me that the message get out there. If I can affect one person into action, then its well worth any effort I may have put forward for this.
Please visit the American Heart Association website at http://www.americanheart.org/presenter.jhtml?identifier=1200000 to learn more about heart disease.
If you know of anyone who could benefit from following me on my journey, please, by all means, send them my blog link.
I could also benefit from your comments and support. As of this date, I am looking to make contact with the AHA in providing a link on this blog that anyone can use to donate to such a worthy cause.
Say a prayer that I can make that right connection!
