I’m grateful for spring also because this season of the year helps me in my efforts to lose the lard.
I’m growing leaf lettuce, head lettuce, radishes, yellow squash, zucchini, red onions, spinach, broccoli, tomatoes, and celery. Being able to look forward to harvesting some of this straight from the garden to our table at night makes a big difference in my eating. I can throw off the comfort food of the winter and embrace being outside longer each day and eating big, healthy salads for our dinners.
All of my outside activities encourage me to drink more water, as well. My pedometer takes notice of my increased mobility and that encourages me to do even more.
Fingers crossed that this all comes together and I can make some good progress on my efforts to get healthier, stronger, and more flexible.
