My first entry is about fitness. I have had three kids in five years…crazy, I know. My children have brought me immense joy and 10 extra pounds of immovable baby weight …a piece. That’s right 30 extra pounds people. I’m kind of ok with it. That is the problem. Firstly, I have completely settled into this new body of mine. Secondly, I have a new bigger sized wardrobe (If I lose weight, what a waste of money that would be). Thirdly, I have adjusted to the “I’m going to eat whatever sounds the most delicious” mentality (after all, diner always comes at the end of a very hard day…Waa). I do look at the fashionable women who can fit into cute affordable clothes (forever 21) and wish I could fit into a Large at this store. I’m not that big, I don’t think it is a lot to ask. I do wish my face looked cute from all angles, and as I am turning 30 this year I do wish I could join the club of 30 somethings that can tout “I’m in better shape than I was in high school!”
I have decided that I am going to change my lifestyle in three easy ways.
1. Wake up before my children to work out, which for me means 6:30am
2. Plan good meals..i mean stop pinning(on pinterest) delicious healthy meals and start making them.
3. When we do eat out , and we will, choose the best choice.
Now here’s to my first day of the rest of my life, here’s to my new blog to document not only what I find but what I DO and here’s to sticking to it!
MOTIVATION
BEING HEALTHY IS 30% WORKING OUT 70% WHAT YOU EAT
My alarm is set for 6:30am for the week. I am meeting my niece at 6:45 to go for a run. She just finished a marathon and runs 20 miles a day on a fairly regular basis. I threw my back out yesterday. We’ll see how it goes! But no matter what I will feel great….i may not get where I’m going but I will be closer tomorrow than I was today!
