Wind Chill or Heat Index?

I would take Wind Chill of 10 below zero and a foot of snow any day over a Heat Index of 110. This heat is kicking my butt.

Being overweight makes it even harder to make it through this extreme heat we are having in the Midwest. I was thinking this morning how hard it has been on me the last week. If I still had on the 78 pounds I have lost, I honestly don't know how I would make it.

I still have 80 pounds to lose which is a lot. However, I encourage anyone that has a lot of weight to lose to not focus on your total weight loss goal but focus on 10 pounds at a time. It is amazing how much better you start to feel as soon as you have dropped 10 pounds and then it even gets better as 10 pounds increases to 20 pounds of weight loss and even better as you continue on your weight loss journey.

I used the excuse for years, I have to much weight to lose to even try and it will take way to long to lose it all. Well then as I get older it amazes me at how fast time passes. It seems like we just get through the Holiday season and it is time for Christmas again. Then I started to think if I don't do something I will be overweight as each Holiday season rolls around. Yea maybe I won't lose it all from one Christmas season to the next but I can make a huge improvement.

Plus the other thing I realized is time is not going to stand still so I used it to my advantage and set a new 10 pound weight loss goal according to different personal events throughout the calender year. There are a lot of special events which occur throughout the year so it makes it easy to work toward my goals.

Until Next Time ... Keep Smil'n & Stay Healthy!
