Being on the road & visiting friends and family hasn't given me much time to post to a blog. I've spent time in the following states: New Mexico, Hawaii, Tennessee & Indiana & of course, my home state of California. It's been an adventure discovering the United States, which often don't seem so united, especially among its people. Californians take diversity for granted--something not so typical when visiting my sister to celebrate her graduation from Indiana University Northwest in Gary, Indiana. A friend of hers commented that her graduation party was diverse--not only in colors, but by size. This was something I realized while traveling in Tennessee & Indiana. It's almost like the norm is for there to be lots of obese people. The American diet sucks & I learned a lot reading, "In Defense of Food," while flying to Nashville, Tennessee.
My experience? I lost weight in Hawaii & California only to regain in it Tennessee & Indiana. The American Diet sucks! In any case, that was one of the things I learned about on my adventure in the states-- HEALTH COUNTS!!! In June I go to DC & NYC with Sandino, Shy, Angie, Adrian & Aja--the others are working... that trip will add to my "US" trips.
