Today

Today represents the beginning of hopefully a healthier me! Deliliah, my partner and fiance has made the decision to join the Air-force. Deliliah is skinny, she denies it all day, but she is. She has decided to get in shape for the Air-force. I have decided to join her.

Today we start out 1700 calorie intake diet. Just thinking about this puts me in a great mood. I so far have had:

Breakfast: 1 cup of wholegrain Granola-400 Calories
1 cup of whole milk-160 calories
1 large banana-120 calories
Total: 680 calories
left: 1020 calories left for day

Today I also started exercising. After searching on demand exercise TV, I found Yoga for beginners. I decided to give it a go. Man it was amazing. I could only do the first 15 minutes because the rest of it was impossible for me to do due to my weight. My fat just gets in the way. The first 15 minutes were amazing though. I felt the burn! Before I started I just did some basic stretches, stretching out my arms, legs, thighs, and abdomen. Then I began the yoga. Now that I am finished I feel so loose and calm. The breathing techniques they use I found really help round out the activity. It is calming and stress relieving.

I really cannot wait to get into shape. Yoga is something I would like to continue to excel at, and carry through my weight loss and beyond.

I told myself I would drink to cups of ice cold water before I go for that glass of diet coke. (even though diet coke has zero calories!) I know it is still not very healthy.

So here is to me, my baby, and the rest of our healthy life.

Your support, comments, and love is always greatly appreciated! Please join me in this quest to become healthier, fit and confident!
