My Philosophy on Health and Fitness

Lisa, you have so many readers because you have common sense! Thank you for making it all about health. Love your philosophy. I look forward to your daily tips in my email. Also, I just had to share the nature video on my Facebook page, although being winter in MN, I don't get out often; dislike the cold!

You did a great job Lisa! And thanks for posting the "Nature" video. It sure did make me laugh. I loved it.

I really like your outlook on the too-often frustrating and hopeless-seeming struggle to improve one's self-care and health. One small change is do-able. I will never be able to look like the 25-year-olds at the gym or completely eradicate the damage I've done to my body with unhealthy habits over the years. But I can do SOMETHING, and I actually am. Too often I beat myself up because I can't do everything, all at once. But since being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes a year ago, I have made changes, and I need to acknowledge that. Doing more is definitely manageable, if I don't let myself get intimidated. I've recently had the awareness that "perfection" is the enemy of improvement, at least for me. Loved your video and the one about nature!

I love the videos!! You are so right about the baby steps! It's a journey and you have to forget old habits and learn new ones. To me baby steps is learning how to navigate to grocery store, learning to read nutrition labels, learning to cook healthy foods for the whole family not just yourself. This doesn't happen overnight.

Thank you, Lisa, for your emphasis on body diversity. And you're right: the fitness industry is mostly centered around selling us equipment, clothing, instruction...and the best way to do that is often to foster insecurities so we'll buy what they're peddling. I love your common-sense approach and emphasis on real food.
