Excuses

i have fallen off the healthy living wagon. oh, i have lots of excuses (who doesn't). christmas, getting through a rough family time, traveling, blah, blah, blah. but it's been a solid month of not caring.

enough!

today, i am officially back on the wagon. my worst offense has been my eating habits. let me tell you i got the message on my flight back from the virgin islands. from atlanta to baltimore. i seriously thought i was having an appendicitis. turns out (i guess) it was just indigestion. my insides were just plain tired from the abuse i suppose. sorry body!

why am i telling you this? mainly because this blog keeps me on track. of course, recently you have probably noticed i have been posting less about clean eating and healthy living. i have a tendency to avoid posting about my less that stellar recipes.

today is a new day. i noticed when i posted my goal of a chin-up by january 31st, i actually did it! yes, i worked hard for that and i really wanted it but in the back of my mind i also knew i had mentioned it on my blog so i knew i'd have to follow-up and let you all know if i did the chin-up. so, here i am telling you all my new goal:

3 clean meals a day (and 2 snacks) 5 days a week

of course, i can eat well the other 2 days too, but i wanted to set a realistic goal. plus, i have a new exercise goal - i will hold crow pose for 5 full breaths by the end of march (i'll take a picture to prove it). i also plan to keep up with the chin-ups.

plus, here is my new weekly exercise plan:

2 days strength training (60 mins each day)

2 days yoga (60 mins each day)

3 days of cardio (30-45 mins each day)

i'll keep you posted. if i don't, please harass me!
