So I’ve been on a health streak (did I mention this?) Where I’m completely revamping the things I eat and making sure I get some sort of exercise/activity each day. Even if it’s just stretching and doing floor exercises. Anyway, I’ve been at it one week and lost 3lbs! I’m excited and feel so much better! :) I looooove www.peertrainer.com (Oh, Julie, where are you!?) It’s the main reason for my success.

I spent the weekend with my daughter and her half sister, and everyone had so much fun. We stayed active almost the whole time, hiking and walking, and managed to get in some art projects too.

Being more active and getting writing in means less times on forums and surfing the net, and maybe even blogging. *Wince* I need to trim the fat on more than just writing things, though, it’s extends into RL too. No that doesn’t stand for Ralph Lauren. That stands for ‘real life’. So if you don’t see me around as much, that’s why. I’ve made a huge commitment to my health and my writing. Thanks everyone for being so supportive.

Anyway, onto….

    Shelli!
    That site hates me or something. I emailed them to see what’s up, but so far – nothing.


  3. 3

    I remember some of them but I think I’m older than you because alot of these things are after my time.

    Aaah Julie :( I’m sorry!!!

    Jolt was crazy. Crazy nuts.

    LA I was so oblivious in the 80′s I had to really think about it.


  5. 5

    Good for you Shelli! I’ve been doing the same thing, real life is sorta important after all. lol

    Hey you want weight loss and exercise? Spend a week at Disney World, I came back 8lbs lighter! LOL

    OMG Shelli, I love the list. And I remember everything on it. Although the banana clips gave me the biggest laugh. Remember how they gave a person kind of a freakish mohawk in the back of the head?

    I really need to overhaul my writing life and health, and I think I’m really on the verge of the writing part. Good luck and I think you’re doing fabulous!

    I remember all of those things except the Jolt soda. How funny.

    Ah, Shelli, the 80s! I love to chat about the 80s. Lol. Great list!

    I think it’s super cool that you’ve decided to get active and change your sleeping habits. It has an instant effect on your life, doesn’t it?

    Keep it up! Yay. :D

    Congratulations! You sound really happy and positive. If you have to spend less time surfing and blogging, then that is totally OK.

    Hey girl, congrats on making the big decision. I’m doing the very same as of two days ago. I’m determined to make it work. I want to be HEALTHY!
    Great 80′s list, I love those candy cigarettes:)

    I remember Jolt Cola! Never tried it but always wanted to…

    Take care of yourself sweetie. ;)

    And I miss candy cigarettes! LOL
