Can you believe we are 1/2half into the first month of the New Year? How are those resolutions coming along? Don't give up yet, there are 50 weeks left in the year, lose "just a 1/2lb" a week will make you 25lbs slimmer this time next year. Lose 1lbs, 50lbs slimmer!

Here's something to get you motivated.

I caught a blurb for Start! one morning and checked out the website.

Start! is an American Heart Association movement calling on all Americans and their employers to live longer, more heart-healthy lives through walking and other healthy habits.

And check this out:

Why walking? Because we know that walking is the easiest, most convenient form of activity — and it’s free. You don’t need special skills, the training of a marathon runner, or a membership at an expensive gym to benefit from walking.

When you join up, you can find out the following:

- Learn why being fit and getting at least 30 minutes of physical activity on most days is important to your health. - Though becoming fit takes you in the right direction against heart disease, eating right creates the balance you need for an overall heart-healthy lifestyle. Use our tools to eat right. - Read inspiring stories from survivors of heart disease. Through these stories we hope you'll understand why it's so important to Start! supporting the movement - Join MyStart! Online and become part of the movement. It's free and you get access to our fitness tool, newsletters and more.

Good stuff fellow fat fighters. I mean if nothing else, I'd LOVE to get a celebrity wake up call. Hey, it gets me one degree closer to Kevin Bacon
