My Noro Plaid scarf is coming along nicely. My camera is out in the car, so I will need to post a picture at a later time. Maybe I will finish the scarf this weekend, then back to the yellow cable scarf I go.
I have heard the name Elizabeth Zimmermann for a few years, but only recently have I gotten to know her. I love her books. I bought several skeins of Cascade Pastaza in blue and green and plan to make an EZ sweater using the EPS system. I will log my progress on the blog so you can follow me and the results. I have high hopes that the sweater will be wearable.
I am very conscious of the dangers of my current eating habits. Diabetes is preventable, so I am trying to eat a lot healthier and get my weight down. Slowly old habits get transformed into healthier habits. More fruit. My vice is Southern-style sweet tea. I think I need to cut it out of my diet altogether. Because once I indulge once I am off and running and indulging every day. I'll let you know how I do. Tonight I ate a Morning Star Veggie burger with Avocado. I won't tell you what else I ate with it because it was not a healthy choice, but I am working on it. Small change by small change I will get to a big change which will result in me looking and feeling better.
I signed up for the Wellness program at work today. It is a 13 week all inclusive wellness program which includes a weekly personal trainer and monitoring of nutrition. A year ago I did this with the goal of improved mood. This time I am doing it with the goal of adopting much healthier eating habits, along with a moderate exercise program. I am excited about the program and plan to commit to working out 3 times a week plus doing 30 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week. I think I will join the local Y and start swimming--an excellent exercise with minimal impact to the body.
