Hello and Welcome to 2008

Starting out this New Year with a focus on two things.
My mental and physical health. (Which are intertwined.)

YOU: is Me

I am doing a plan that is 'doable' for me.
YOU: on a Diet. ... But my portions are still too big.

Research has not proven what percentage
of calories from carbohydrates and proteins is best;
The figures below are my guideline to work towards.

Caloric Breakdown for approximately 1950 calories:

Fats 25% --- 54 grams
Carb 60%...

My Dieting, or lack thereof, history:

From 17 - 25 I weighed 123 - 127 pounds. (37/24/36)

Stayed consistent even after the first three children when I gained two inches in the waist. Never dieted or did exercise. Just routine movement and dancing to the radio.

For most of a thirty year span from age 26 (last of four children) until age 56 (when I gave up smoking) I weighed between 135 - 145.

I wore the same size through that ten pound fluctuation. Just a larger hourglass than before the four children. lol. (39/28/38).

My first Blog ever will begin in January.
