It's the new year, a time to focus on new goals. I started this health blog a while back, taking all this time to think how I wanted to approach it, what I wanted to write, what I wanted to admit or disclose. This blog will only be about health, eating, and exercising. I'm not that type of woman to count calories, I think it takes too much time, however I am seriously considering writing down what I eat during the day. I think that will make me realize what I am eating and when and make me realize the responsibility for my choices when they're written down.
Since last year I never disclosed my weight and measurements and rarely advised my exact plans and accomplishments in regards to exercise. I will be posting weekly, most likely on a Sunday evening, my goals for the week and a meal plan. I will also reflect on the past week and how I did. One thing I was nervous about was that I would put pressure on myself to write everyday, which I don't think is a good goal for me. I think writing once a week as a goal is a great first step. if I feel like I want to write an extra post about something I need to get off my chest, you know me, I certainly will. This will be a good start.
Now, I might be starting off a little slow, be warned. This might be a bit boring at first as I get my footing and see where this blog will take me. Also be warned that this might get a bit personal, I like to pour my heart out at times and being brutally honest may not be your thing to read, but hey, you're choosing to read it right? One thing I know is that I am not alone. Us women go through this a lot and I find my strength by reading other's blogs, it brings me back to reality knowing that we struggle with the same situations and we share in the same accomplishments. Go Us!
Climbing up my tree of life,

Now's the Time, It's 2009!

Wow, two blogs. Very ambitious! You may want to look up sparkpeople.com
It is a weight loss community/website and you can record your meals there. It will add up the calories, fat grams, carbs, etc for you. It takes a little time in the beginning but when you get your food entered the first time, it gets really fast after that. I used it a couple years ago when I wanted to loose 15 pounds. What I realized was that I was not eating enough! I was always tired and so I never exercised. When I increased my calories to the right amounts they suggest then I had much more energy. It shows you the whole picture by adding up the totals of different categories.
