One Month Ago

So, I started really focusing on being healthy starting on January 1st and it’s now February 2nd and so far I have made the following improvements and had a few setbacks as well:

Improvements:

 1.  Almost completely stopped drinking coffee - I can count on one hand the number of cups of coffee I’ve had since 1/1

2.  I’ve made strides in my yoga practice - I’m going to my third yoga class this week

3.  I’ve been eating healthier, working on more improvements (cutting out red meats, eating local and organic produce/meat)

As a result of #2 and #3 I’ve lost 5 pounds.

Struggles/setbacks:

1.  I started doing p90x and I saw immediate results (being sore and exhausted) but I quit, I did not have the time or commitment to stay with the program and that’s my own fault.  

2.  My boyfriend’s unhealthy eating habits are my own (reeses ice cream mostly) I need to work on making healthy decisions even if he isn’t.

3.  When I get stressed out, I stop exercising which is exactly the opposite of what I should be doing.  

It’s 10 pm and I’m eating. I’m eating because I’m hungry and my body deserves the nutrients it needs after biking 75 miles today.

So shoot me.

What’s your favorite breakfast food?

I’m currently sitting here listening to Oldies eating oatmeal with walnuts and blueberries, a spinach smoothie with mango and banana and of course my fuel, coffee.
