If you are a dreamer, come in

If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,

A Hope-er, a Pray-er, a Magic Bean buyer,

If you're a preteder, come sit by my fire

For we have some flax-golden tales to spin

Come in!

Come in!

Good Monday Morning! Well, I made it but just barely! I definitely prefer juice fasts! I'll fast again in late spring but it'll be a juice fast! I find it to more re-vitalizing and honestly, more rewarding! If I see another onion, I might be sick! I lost 1 1/2 inches off my true waist! You know, that place where those 'boy' pants fit snuggly, and let's everything hang over! I have more to go but that's where my walking will help me out!  I also lost 3 pounds.

After the initial fast, which ended yesterday, I will now start eating;

• fresh fruit
• vegetable juice
• garlic
• radish
• turnips (the Chinese use turnips for lung imbalances such as sinus problems)
• salads - lettuce, cabbage, celery, cucumber, carrots and more onions
• More boiled and steamed onions (I'll happily give these up!)
• tofu
• whole grains
• vegetables
• seaweed

But I already committed my first blunder...I grabbed a coffee! Mmm...I missed it!

Here in Quebec, St. Patrick's Day, usually marks spring! It was a blustery -14°c with the wind! But I'm still able to plan, right? It's supposed to go up to plus 16°c on Thursday!! Here's some links to help motivate! If you decide to start a program, let me know, I'll be your cheering section!

• Starting an Exercise Program by Vicki Pierson
• Introduction: exercise and fitness - Merck Manual Home Edition
• ExRx - Beginner's Page (This is a great place to start and go back too!)
• The Walking Site

Oh gosh...I have to go wake the kids! It's 5 to 8!

Blessings,

Thea ><><
