Health and Fitness Checklist Challenge! Come along for the ride!

A couple of days ago I wrote about how starting the Monday after Easter I am going to start my new health kick. Here is the daily/weekly goals I have set for myself. I am going to print out a tangible copy of this list so I can have the satisfaction of physically checking off each item as I achieve it. Hopefully after doing this for a while I will have formed habits out of these tasks.

 Weekly:
1. Cardio 5X a week (running, spinning, aerobics class)
2. Weight training/resistance training 3X a week
3. A minimum of Yoga once a week
4. one planned cheat day a week
Daily:
1. Limit breads, starches and simple sugars (more on this in a later post)
2. Eat vegetables at every meal
3. drink 8 glasses of water a day (also awesome for your skin!)
4. wake up by 8am every day
5. no eating past 9pm
6. take my multi-vitamin and omega 3 supplements every day
7. Floss every day

I would love any feedback, comments, or suggestions from you guys. OR if you guys joined me that would be AWESOME!

Getting in Shape for Summer

Now that spring and summer and dawning upon us most of us girls have something haunting our minds... swimsuit season! I'm guilty of overindulging and lacking (majorly) at working out on the regular. I find that I go in cycles of being super motivated with eating healthy and working out, and then cycles of being so lethargic and unmotivated.
Starting this Monday (after Easter of course) I am going to start fresh again. I am in the process of making a weekly daily/checklist of all the health and fitness goals I was to accomplish each week. Whether its run 3X a week, drink 8 glasses of water a day, and so on. I'm going to compile the list and then post it on my blog and update it with how well I am doing along with stats.
I would LOVE it if any girls wanted to join me in my new health kick. Let me know and we can share tips, recipes, goals and motivation. Summer, here we come!

Diet and Exersice...and my sugar addiction

 If you new me personally, one thing you would definitely know is that I'm an addict...a SUGAR addict. I love candy, cookies, cake, ice-cream...anything sweet. Mmmmmm.... But lately I've been feeling my addiction creeping up on my waist line and I'm NOT liking it. So, today I made the decision to make a new start.  Also, my family, my boyfriend, and I will be heading to the Caribbean in January and I should start thinking about beach photos ;)

Now, I'm not obese in any capacity, but as of late I have not been feeling my best physically. I have been feeling lethargic and having no energy. I am going to start exercising daily and experimenting with some new healthy foods and recipes! So if you would be interested in reading my regular posts , or even better, joining me on my journey, then follow me for daily updates! If anyone else is interested in joining me leave me a comment :)

In my next post I will reveal my starting stats, my plan of action, and my goals.
