Affirmations!
I haven't done these in a while but they work. So the rule is. You start with one. Write what you like/feel about yourself. Then the next day you repeat that one (or how many you have) and add one to it. If you can't think of something new, then repeat something you've already written. * I am a kind person
Hello everybody
I’m glad that the first group such as this one I think that this is going to be a great way to start the year by being able to motivate and our health very serious. I think that if we work hard enough and have a good support we want to be.

Mucky's Diary
For many reasons (Kids, surgeries, covid lick down, remote work), I have allowed my self care to be a low priority. This has resulted in poor fitness and weight gain.
