That's a great question and one that I'm not entirely sure that I can answer sufficiently right now. Let's take the title apart for starters and, as you can see, this blog must having something to do with weight - more specifically, my weight. The fact is I've spent a great deal of my adult life at an unhealthy weight. I'm sick and tired of being unhappy with my weight and I'm ready to make some positive changes for the better.
An examination of the how and why I got to the weight I'm at today leads me to the conclusion that there's more than just one or two contributing factors (like over-eating and not being active enough) that have brought me to this unhappy place. I feel like I have had my fair share of shortcomings in the psychological and spiritual arenas, as well. My hope is that this blog will be a place for me to reflect on these factors and try to figure out what I need to do to make things right, while I still can. Incidentally, reflection is useless if it's not honest in every detail.
I want to run races and help other people run them, too. I want to wear something besides a moo moo and walk up the stairs without my knees feeling like they're going to snap with my next step. If I can do these things then I can be around to run and play with my grand kids in twenty or thirty years. My posts here are about what does and doesn't work for me as I try to achieve contentment for my body, mind and spirit. I know it's unlikely that I'll have everything figured out in the end, but at least I'll know that I made an honest effort. Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you find something useful. Blessings!
