Most of my friends know that I can read a subject to death. Instead of walking, I might get 10 books on how to walk and never leave my lounging spot! Constantly in self-improvement mode, one friend said, "You need to stop reading books and forget about it", helpfully meaning .. get on with the ACTION of DOING.
Again thanks to this forum I am still walking but I just can't help myself I am also still reading.

I thank my sweet mother for her inspiration. She takes walks everyday, and tries to keep up with my father, who still bikes, goes to spin class and I don't know I lost track. In addition, she reads EVERYTHING. Books you would never think of, titles that make you laugh and some that just make you frown and say, "WHAT!".
My love of architecture, art, history, reading also comes from my parents. Look at their beautiful Bed & Breakfast, Gansevoort House Inn and Galleries. On the web page you can visit all the interesting things my parents are doing!
Oops, got off track again.. My point started out.. there is so much information. I'm torn between the Sparks Program. and the new book Mom sent, " Flat Belly Diet!". The Spark program is awesome. you must try it. Just plug in your information, how much you weigh and how much you want to lose,.. and it makes not only a menu but a grocery list. If you don't like what is on the list you have many alternatives to choose from. You enter your progress with the fitness as well and everything is documented, graphed and measured, easily. I think vanity, as I have, well I'll kindly say, " I do not have a flat belly" will win. I am looking forward to reading the book. Thanks, Mom. And many thanks to all the people cheering me on. It is inspiring.
Oh by the way I did walk today, measured and I walked 3 miles per hr! Did a little over a mile. Until I walk again!
