HELLO from Texas

Winged equine such as pegasus?  You have chosen a great goal for this challenge!  Finding time for yourself when so many others depend on you is imperative for success!  It took me many years to realize that by giving more of myself than there was to give and taking absolutely no time for myself really hurt those around me, as well as myself, instead of making me feel better I just felt more stressed.  I would just think that finding time to exercise or take time for just me was just another thing to add to my already busy schedule.  However, in the end, after I gained all that weight, I realized that my health and well being was important too.  What good would I be to anyone if I became ill or had a heart attack from not taking care of myself. 

Take small steps and find those few minutes that are just for you.  I like walking because once I am away I am forced to realize that the world can run without me and I am in a place where I can clear my mind and problem solve.  What is your favorite exercise?
