TOPS
OH NO! The country is
going to reopen, and I'm not
ready. I have to lose that 10
pounds that was given to me
by a generous benefactor,
COVID-19.
Actually, I gave it to myself,
and can't blame anyone else. I
kept rewarding myself for not
going mad during "shelter in
place." I gave it to myself when I was bored. I gave it to myself when
I was tired of cooking three meals a day and ate junk food instead. I
gave it to myself when the gym was closed, and I didn't take the time
to replace that activity with some other kind of exercise.
So, what to do now? Well, for members of TOPS, Take Off Pounds
Sensibly, it signals a return to that which we already know. Maybe we
need to start watching our portion size. Maybe eating mindlessly in
front of the TV is a bad idea. Maybe those on-line exercise programs
should be looked at again. Maybe we should join the Tops Zoom
meeting Tuesday morning at 8:30 am for some motivation to get out
there and walk a few miles. Maybe we should go back to intermittent
fasting. It worked before, and maybe we need it again.
Well, whatever your plan for eating a balanced diet that will help
you lose that 10-pound gift you received, get started now.
By June or July, our country may have a better outlook, and when
we are ready to come back as a supportive group again, we at TOPS
pray that you will be happy and healthy.
When safe, why not join us, and make a healthy difference in your
life today? We meet Tuesdays at 8 am in The Lodge Ballroom. ~ Andi
