Gearing up

You know when you realize that all the ways you used to see yourself are no longer? That you had the baby 7 1/2 month's ago and haven't regained your previous body, that you have become one of those people with a list of excuses as to why they can't take care of yourself. Well I have officially come to that realization and I am feeling really blue. Just disappointed that I go to this point. I am looking down at my stomach and the chub and feeling embarrassed. It is time to get up off the couch, desk chair, bed and prioritize my own health. So, I am.

Tomorrow morning I am starting to live a Paleo Lifestyle. I am a firm believer that some of us function better with more carbs and some function better with little to no carbs and more protein- I am certainly the latter. The hard part is doing it. All the crap is easy and fast and I have really gotten into some bad habits. It takes 21 days to make a habit, right? Ok. Here it goes. I really need your help out there, your support and encouragement. This first week might be rough, it might not be perfect, but I am going to do my best and keep you up to date.

Plan for Monday:
5am: Workout 45 minutes, 30 minutes on treadmill, 15 minutes stretching
Breakfast: 2 eggs scrambled and 1 apple
Snack: 1/2 oz cashews
Lunch: Salad with chicken & EVOO
Snack: 1/2 oz cashews
Dinner: Slow Cooker Pork loin with mustard and sauerkraut

To starting with a plan, creating a habit, and changing a life.
