Yeah, yeah we’ve all watched those advertisements.  If I bought every miracle weight reducing, body trimming, tummy-tightening machine that came down the pike my house would explode.  Then there are all those miracle weight loss pills, yeah I’d rather toss my money down the toilet it’s just as effective.

     What works is less food and more movement.  I can tell, now that I’m outside more and working in the garden again, my jeans are starting to fall down.  Where did I put that belt?   Sweat equity melts off the winter weight.

     G and I are starting to do our twice-weekly mile long walks.  The pups love that I’m taking them for an evening walk weather permitting.  I walk them separately so that means I go twice as far as they do. 

     Warm weather meals are lighter and contain more fresh veggies and fruit than my winter meals.  The last two days I had the grill up and running again so that means less fat too. 

     DH, otherwise known as Mr. Fluffy since I had to pick him up from the floor last week, will drop a few pounds too.
