Me time!

I had a mental break this weekend, and I think I have figured out why. I think there are 2 things I really need to be doing in my day to day life to improve my health, mentally and physically. The first thing I am going to start doing is I need to run, 3 times a week which will give me some regularity in working out, and increase my endorphins and my mood. (also making me skinnier so then in turn happier!) I am also going to start setting aside 1 weekend a month (or 6 weeks at most) aside to go do something new, something out of town (doesn't have to be far). I will look up some touristy things, talk to friends that have lived here for years, get ideas and then make the plans.. I think it is very important for me to do this so I am not just sitting at home or work day after day. so please share with me some ideas you might have for me to try!

Quit Smoking!

I Have made up my mind! I am finally ready! I quit smoking, my last one was on Jan 6th. I am officially 5 days smoke free! I made it past the 3 day mark, I am coming up on the 7 day mark soon! I dont ever want a smoke again! I already feel so much more healthy! I can now focus more on my weight loss plan! I can get my butt out side and work out! (and dont forget to watch the vlog (http://youtu.be/EjOTUQrZB4o) or read about it on my shared blog at www.thefitnesssisters.blogspot.com We would love to have you come by and say HI! ask us questions about our journey!

2013 renewal

As I sit here thinking about 2012 and my life, I think that I didn't get out and do much.. I worked, and I spent some time with my nephew, but that was all I really did. with 2013 here, I would like to set the goal of just getting out and doing more, learning something new. I would like to be more active in the community, take some fun classes, maybe piano, cooking, something. I am also committing to making the choice to eat healthy, not just diet,  but completely change the way I eat.. I want to start looking up at least one new recipe a week to try when I dont work. I am going to walk/run at least 4 times a week. I am just going to be a better person in 2013! this is my year to achieve the things I want in life!  If you want to see some of the changes happen check out thefitnesssisters.blogspot.com or https://www.facebook.com/TheFitnessSisters
