Long time no talk


So obviously it has been a while since I have written anything on this sad little blog.  I don't really think anyone still looks at it or reads it, so now I am just going to write on it for myself in hopes of documenting this little journey of mine.  Since I wrote on here last I had a baby!  We love our little boy and he has stolen my heart!  But in the process of having a baby ones body isn't exactly great :) So here I am again starting over to get to where I want to be.  My husband made a deal with me that if I weigh 140lbs by the end of the year he will buy me a ticket to Japan to go and see my sister!  Woot woot!  So the little game I play in my head is "would you rather eat that or go to Japan?"  It for sure helps me to stay away from the junk.  I am also starting to eat a "whole food diet" or clean eating.  That means no processed foods and very few animal proteins.  A lot of where I have gotten my research/information from is a book called "Eat to Live" and a documentary called "Forks over Knives".  I HIGHLY recommend both to anyone wanting to just live a healthy lifestyle and in the mean time lose weight and feel great!  

This morning I started a new adventure by starting to go to Cross fit classes!  It was hard but felt so good at the same time!  I can barely walk now this afternoon and will be really sore by the time the morning comes but I love that feeling and miss it!  I am also starting to run because when I go to Japan next spring I want to run my first half marathon with my sister Stacey!  How cool will that be?!?!  So here is to the new me and I can't wait to see what I look like by the end of the year!!
