New Ways

As tempting as it is to step on the old weight loss resolution train again, I think this year I'm going to forgo the pleasure.  After 35 years it's time to try something different.  I think where I go wrong is that I go whole hog; low calories and lots of exercise.  I lose weight but I also burn myself out and then I don't give a crap anymore.  So this year I'm thinking moderate exercise ( I really do want to start running again but only a couple times a week plus a little bit of toning to keep some of my muscle) and higher calories (more like 1800 calories instead of 1200).  So we'll see how it goes.
