I'm at an age when many women believe their best years are behind them. I hope to convince my "Sisters" that many more of those "best years" are waiting to be lived! I'm living proof it is never to late to live them. Not to long ago I weighed nearly 200 pounds and was being treated for a long list of obesity related medical problems. Thankfully there came a point in my life when I decided to keep my self promises. When I did...my life opened to a world of possibilities.

Time rushes on!

Sometimes it seems we have so much on our plate....(not necessarily food.) This is developing into a very busy summer ahead. Graduations, vacations....college start up.
But as busy as things get---I know I can't forget the most important thing. Taking care of myself.
It is so easy to put off exercise and nutrition. The moment I do the old way of thinking rushes in. Hey I can always exercise tomorrow. No time to pack those four meals for the workday? I can always grab something at Subway.
There is an easy way and the right way.
Today--I've already had a full day of work and haven't even left the house for my real job.
Today--I took an extra minute to pack my meals. Today I took a few minutes to write this blog.
Tonight I will take a break and hit the work out room at work.
Time rushes by but we must take time for ourselves. If we don't there will be no energy or enjoyment for the fun filled summer ahead.

My son -- who's headed this fall to enter the University of Virginia -- calls this special time for self-maintanence his "me time."

We all need our "me time." It's not selfish to honor promises that protect our "me time." It's self-destructive when we don't keep such promises.

I absolutely love your near-daily contributions to the BFL guestbook and/or your BLOG. Thanks, Michelle. You rock!

Your BFL pal,
John Lesko
