My goals are as follows:
- have surgery completed sometime this year (do all prep stuff so I am at maximum readiness)
- safely and gradually increase my activity level with my physiotherapist to avoid re-injury. Most likely more walking and biking. Possibly water aerobics in the summer.
- walk my dogs regularly, make it part of daily routine again rather than an occasional thing
- continue with the healthy eating changes I have made, adding new ones as needed
- keep my house neater/more organized so that I feel like cooking/eating there. this lowers my stress and reduces likelihood of eating out or ordering in, which is bad for my nutrition and my budget.
- practice mindfulness, meditation, and use cbt to deal with my life stresses rather than food. This one is always a work in progress as it is so easy to get off track
- use my gym membership: start short beginner level yoga classes being careful of my knee. get back into lifting weights - gradually/carefully so as not to re-injure my rib muscles
- keep experimenting with low carb high protein recipes, add to my cookbook
This year will be an interesting one for me I think and I am looking forward to it.

Skiing should be wonderful based on the snowy nature of winter thus far :)
Wow - the boudoir photo shoot takes lots of guts which i don't have...but I'm sure your hubby will love every minute of that!
Happy New Year!
