HEALTHY HABITS

Here's the deal. We've been eating too much junk lately. It is a bad habit, but an easy habit to fall into. And we fell hard.  Head first. 

But we have picked ourselves up and decided it's time to get back to eating clean by filling our plates with more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, lean proteins and much less junk.

With that comes drinking more water.  Drinking water instead of other beverages. Except my morning coffee. I still have that. But I have eliminated the daily diet soda I was having.

Along with better eating habits comes daily exercise.  Cardio. Weights. Walking. Running. Kettlebells. Planks.

Last week, I started eating better.  Better food choices, smaller portions, more water.  This week, I added the exercise part.  I started by getting out of bed a half hour earlier (and that is not easy) and making my way out to our "home gym" (the garage) and jumping on the treadmill for 30 minutes. 

It's been since October when I was regularly working out. Then came our vacation to Tennessee, my nasty fall down the stairs which resulted in my workouts coming to a grinding halt and they have have been stalled ever since.

But, four months later, my bruises have nearly healed and I am ready to tackle the hard work ahead of me to reach my goals.

Three days down.
Baby steps.
