Retreat

I took time for a spiritual retreat yesterday.

MORE INFORMATION:
I was feeling pretty stressed out from caring for my husband and moving into our house necessitated by my husband falling twelve feet and breaking his back. I was eating everything in sight, but a day of connecting with God and planning my schedule has really helped.

A matter of balance

Maintaining means calories in is approximately equal to calories out. If you've been doing a lot of cardio to burn off pounds, I wouldn't suggest stopping that - but you might want to tone it down. Similarly, build up the calories - FINALLY - you can have a snack or 2.

MORE INFORMATION:
It takes time but the balance does come!!
