Goal time
Decided yesterday that given I am in a remission of sorts I must build on it. Got fairly fit when travelling, humping pack and using local transport - NO CAR!! So time to take charge of myself. Time to stop using the car so much. I live in safe country and while there are days when it seems the total NZ population is driving on my local roads, I know compared with some places we are pretty quiet. So I can get walking out there!
So have just put up a goal. I miss tramping, my eldest daughter has just made me envious as she is tramping up Mount Taranaki this holiday weekend and staying in hut - all stuff I used to do before the Beast. So I am going to get fit enough to join a local easy tramping club who do day trips into our lovely bush. Want to get fit enough to join one in new year after Silly Season when all the clubs get going again in February.
So half hour daily walks and shift some of that flab that I have allowed to build up since 2006. Plan is to get rid of about half of it first time.
So any lovely DS friends out there reading this give me a kick in the butt! And by "going public", something that I never thought I'd do on here but have come to a point of trust in the site, I am less likely to make excuses for myself and let myself off hook!
Saw GP for migraines and he ordered tests to see if any obvious imbalances but actually been heaps better. Seems to suggest that if sensitive to some foods their negative affects in the body take a while to clear. It is now three weeks of being back on the path of good behaviour re gluten and dairy and no migraine for a week after almost daily ones.
