Starting off

Okay...here I go! I'm trying this new blog to help keep me motivated to be healthy! This is what you should know about me. I'm 23, I think. (I really can't remember half the time! Once I passed 21, I guess I didn't care anymore!) Anyway, I have 2 kids, a 2 year old boy, and a 1 year old girl. They are 17 months apart, which did wonders for my body! I have been married for almost 4 years, and I want to look AWESOME by my anniversary! (this August!)

I feel like I usually do pretty well exercising, but I need to do better with what I eat. My main weekness... SUGAR! I love it. Really that's what it boils down to.

I'm hoping to use this blog as kind of a personal health journal. I want to keep track of how well I eat and exercise, as well as any other thoughts relating to health.

So...to start it off I'm going to be very personal. Sorry, but I want to lay it out on the line! Right now I weigh 135. For my height, 5'2, a healthy weight is anywhere from 115-140 pounds. I know I'm in the range, but I'm at the higher end. My goal is to get to 130, and go from there. I've been stuck at 135 for awhile, and I know it's because I slip up on my diet.

Today:
Exercise: Ran 3.1 miles
Time: ??? (I need to remember top time myself! So I can improve)


GOALS THIS WEEK:
1-Run a 5k in 34 minutes.
2-Diet: (I've had a rough week. I had to cover a bunch of stuff in Chocolate for YW's which totally brought me downhill! I will do better though!) No sweets today! That's my goal!
3-Water: I want to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.
4-No food after 7:30pm. (This is a hard one for me!)

Okay, I figure that's good start. I'll let you know how I'm doing on it in a few days!
