Well, I got back from my vacation in August and realized that I had started a great habit of walking at least a mile or more every day! I have kept up with it pretty well since then - hitting the gym or my neighborhood every day. I prefer the gym as I can't "mosey" as easily on a treadmill. Heh.

I even had a free consultation with a trainer who showed me a great weights/cardio combo workout that I have started doing once a week just to change things up.

Last week, on the last day of August, I printed out a 4 week walking plan from Prevention.com and started it on Monday. I really like how it's not the same thing every day and that it wants you to incorporate weights into the mix (not while walking but in place of a walking workout once a week.)

My dietary changes are coming along. I have started to follow a diabetic diet. It is a balanced way of eating and I feel very good on it so far.

I don't own a scale for many reasons, but I have noticed inches coming off now. I plan on measuring tonight and again at the end of the 4 week program.

Good luck to us all - you are all a wonderful inspiration to me!
