I read a blog the other day that precisely explained my thoughts about weight loss and health. The author, health activist Kathy Freston, suggested that the secret is to crowd out, not cut out. That's what we are trying to do. We eat more, not less, and are always adding to what we eat in a day. Granted, you have to make the right choices....to add more fruits and vegetables, get more fiber and nutrients. Never, ever feel so hungry that you binge and eat badly.

Another good point was made in a blog about ending weight loss. Stop it, immediately. Work towards your real goal, which should be better health. The scale and BMI are not accurate measures of health, just very rough guides. Ask yourself daily if you moved enough and if you ate well. Simple.

I went to my run group last night. Dean played softball. How about you?
