Prepared For A Good Start

Happy New Year's Eve!

I've worked this week to get set up for my new weight loss journey.  

I went out and bought new walking shoes.  I went to a podiatrist back in 2023 who made the suggestion that I not wear my shoes forever regardless how well they look, lol!!  She also recommended some brands, with Brooks topping the list.  I immediately bought two pairs and was amazed the difference it made.  I realized in the past week that the Brooks still look great but I've been wearing them for almost 3 years.  I was well overdue for a new pair.

Another brand recommended was Saucony.  I went to the shoe store and wasn't finding any Brooks that caught my eye so I went to the Sauconys.  Not only did several suit my taste but I was able to buy two pair at the cost of one pair of Brooks.  I was very happy!!  I went to another store and bought some ankle boots that are water resistant for those dog walks in the rain and snow.  It was a productive shoe day.

So, re-signed up for WW; bought new walking shoes; started a new blog; got a weight loss partner; starting a walking challenge tomorrow; and Kickstart starting next week..... I say I'm off to a good start!

Just a reminder:  KICKSTART is starting January 5th and it's not too late to sign up.  It's totally FREE unless you choose to purchase the Kickstart Journal/Workbook to go with it.  You do not need to purchase these, you may choose your own journal, plain old notebook or nothing at all.  This time around I'm going with nothing at all - I just lose interest with the journals.

To a New Year!!!
