My Journey to a Healthy Lifestyle

Hello everyone!

These past couple of weeks, I’ve been feeling a little down because I realized my body is not on its highest potential anymore. A friend of mine told me, “If you want tomorrow to be better, you have to do something today”  So, today I will start my journey to a healthier lifestyle. I don’t want to go on a crash diet or go on a exercise overload. I want to figure out a healthy plan that I can do for the rest of my life, not just momentarily.

Agenda #1: I am giving up chocolate.  I just called my husband to tell him about this & he decided that he will give up soda. I’m so glad we’re in this together.

Agenda #2: I will not make any excuses to not workout. Come on Grace, 30- 60 minutes of sweat won’t kill you. YOU HAVE TIME, trust me. JUST DO IT!

Agenda #3: No eating 2-3 hours before bed. Go to bed hungry.

Agenda #4: Drink lots of water.

Tell me your healthy goals? Any food suggestions or workout routines?
