May 1st

It has been almost a year that I have been eating anything and everything that I want.  Am I happy with this choice....no I am not.  I have been feeling miserable and since this is the beginning of a new month I am making the choice to start eating clean.  I am going to try and exercise daily too.  This is when I am happiest and I want to be happy and feel good about myself.   I want to be able to run again and not feel so out of shape.  I want to continue building up my strength, love my bootcamp classes.

One thing I need to keep telling myself is that this will take time and a lot of patience.  I can't expect results right away.  I just need to take it one day at a time and eventually it will pay off (like 6 months from now when I am on a beach in Jamaica).

I have a few things in mind to make for my meals this week so today and tomorrow I will be cooking away so that I have things that I can grab quickly.  I know that this works for me so I will start prepping meals 1 or 2 days/week so that I have easy access to healthy food choices.   For this week I will be having my sausage, rice, peppers and salsa,  clean sloppy joe's and a clean chicken tortillas soup.   I will make the granola from the cleanse which I will have with yogurt and fruit and when I am home for breakfast I will have my protein smoothies from the cleanse.  

Tomorrow I will be exercising 2x.  run/walk 3K and then a bootcamp class.  I am meeting friends for lunch so I need to make the healthiest choice I can and not beat myself up for not eating "clean".  I think I am so hard on myself that when I eat out I just fall apart.  I need to stop doing this.

I am going to do this.  I want to reach a healthy weight and I also want to have a healthy lifestyle.  I think all around I will feel like a better person which is what I want for me and my family!!
