My Year of Exhale

Well, we made it 2012. So much have gone on I don't know where to start. New job, graduated from college, new home, ups and downs.... yeah alot. But one thing have not changed, my love for working out.  I have continued to run, workout at home, at the gym and changed my diet. Life have been interesting. Speaking of food. My food choices have changed greatly and it has been exciting. From how my body on the inside been reacting to the outside.
( later I will post my new food "gotta hav's")

 I am totally hype because along with a huge change in diet during this challenge I'm gonna get more strict with my self and tackle my second food craving detox...SUGAR!! Yeah I said it SUGAR!! I am not going to go cold turkey I been weaning my self off for 3 days now. The reason for the weaning ( say that 3times fast...lol) is that I don't want my mind to play tricks with me. I don't want to "feel" like I'm fasting ( to much pressure) but I'm gonna take a serious one day at a time, mindful, thought provoking decision to do this.
 Also I'm doing in 30 day increments a focus to fat burning. Which means I will be focusing on consuming foods that promote fat burning. Plenty (more) of proteins, grains, veggies, water, fruit, rice- milk, Shakeology. Even fewer portions of wheat and grain types of bread, dairy, with needed portions of carbs!
 I am so excited about this and now I feel mentally ready to do this. Alot of times that's what it takes. You must be mentally ready to tackle whatever goals you place in front of you. Whether its health and fitness, choosing higher education...etc.


 I will make posts on Facebook about this 90 day journey I'm about to embark on. Along with pictures, videos ( if I figure out how to post it) and plenty of comments, encouragement, challenges and whatever...
So stay tuned for 'My Year of Exhale!' I'm turning 40 this year and I'm expecting it to be a great one!!
