                          1. Totally accept that this is a lifestyle change not a DIET!
                          2. Understand it will be a slow learning and re-training process.
                          3. Forgive myself when I make a bad decision and keep right on going.
                          4. Maintain a heart healthy kitchen.
                          5. Plan my menus and prepare the meals ahead of time.
                          6. Allow myself to splurge once and awhile.
                          7. Get more sleep.
                          8. Exercise in the morning.
                          9. Make water my new bestfriend.
                          10. Move more - whenever & wherever I can.

                          We are an obese nation.
                          Heart disease is the number one killer of Americans.
                          And it is almost always preventable.

                          I am over weight. My cholesterol is too high. I rarely get any exercise. I don't get enough sleep. My diet is awful. Guess what! I am slowly (and not that slowly) killing my heart!

                          The longest journey begins with a single step.

                          I have to make a change in my lifestyle - for me and for my family. I want to live a long time.

                          I have created this website as a way for me to track my progress, to motivate myself and as a learning tool. I hope other members will help and encourage me along the way. Maybe I can encourage them as well.

                          I will continue to build out the site, adding useful and fun information, so check back often.
