Earth Day April 2014I celebrate Earth Day each day that I walk for weight maintenance. I aim for 60 minutes of walking most days. It's my way of being very Primal.
Walking outside helps me connect to the earth, other people, de-stress, practice my photography hobby, and helps me keep my weight in the maintenance zone. One action, many hours of awesomeness. Sometimes, I'll take a trash bag and pick up trash as I go. Pay it forward.
The great thing about walking, I could still walk when I was 70 pounds over weight.
I started a new Instagram hashtag #walkingforweightmaintenance
If you walk for weight loss or weight maintenance, tag up some photos

BE SMART: Don't use the location tag if that would put you or your family in any sort of danger. I don't do the same walk twice or on a regular schedule. Most of my photos are from the last 2 weeks up to the last 2 years.
Anyhoo- I'm off to do some projects and take some more walks. Happy Earth Day!
Awesome that you said that!! I picked up trash on my walk today too, in honor of earth day - I think I'll make it a weekly habit to take a little bag and collect trash on my walk!
ReplyDeleteIt feels good to play a part in a bigger picture, Jeanette. Love your hiking photos.

ReplyDeleteBrilliant - just wish a few more people would do as you do Karen.
I always look forward to your photographs and your BE SMART tip is such good sense.
All the best Jan

ReplyDeleteMy vegan has taken probiotics for years.
DeleteMy vegetarian (the one who was just so sick) just started because her GI system was so inflamed.
Saw this note on food and inflammation and wondered if you had seen it.
I hadn't seen the article , Vickie. I learned in my workshop in 2012 that acne and other skin conditions are inflammation so I really have seen food make a difference.
