I'm back!

Just finished doing my first ever Fatbike event and a few guys, mostly younger, were shocked when they found out how "old" I was. A few comments of "not too many 50 year olds doing these rides" etc.  Telling them about my two hip replacements put them over the top!

All this got me thinking...I refuse to act my age and I'm loving it. Yeah, not too many people bombing around on a Fatbike at my age. Yes, I have an unhealthy bike fetish (you should see my garage) but it keeps me young.  I have a longboard (skateboard) too. I simply refuse to "get old." All of these thoughts prompted me to rename this blog and pick it up again. I'll also be starting up a new website - to be revealed soon enough!

How do I do this?  I take care of myself with a fitness and healthy living lifestyle.  I eat right, which includes a daily Shakeology (the best meal of the day) and, more recently, a paleo eating lifestyle. Since I've gone Paleo, I no longer take a supplement for my painful right knee and there is no more pain! I'm just eating good, healthy foods and taking a daily multivitamin. Eating healthier costs a little more but I'm weighing it against all of the saved costs: co-pays for Dr. visits no longer necessary, extra supplements, and other meds that are no longer needed. In the end I'm pretty sure that financially it works out in my favor.

If you want to follow along on this ongoing journey, I'm here for you. I can help you get healthy with the Team Beachbody line of workouts and nutritionals. I'm a Beachbody coach and I love what I do and love helping people to a better life.
