So I mentioned before that Tyler had been ill with a cold virus and ear infection. I always wanted to raise my kids to be good at sharing things.... all things except there cold germs. Sure enough, two days after Ty's Dr appt, I started coming down with the "crud" tuened sinus infection and I am still getting it out of my system! In an effort to feel better, and another goal of mine for 2012, I have decided to make some changes to make a healthier new me. Like everyone else, I keep saying "on Monday I'll start" or "I'll start when I feel better" and reality is I need to just do it! nike.
So the first thing on my list is the look better naked 2 day cleanse. Another good find on my new Pinterest obsession. A simple meal plan that will hit your body's "reset" ton? For only two days? SOLD! Deinately something I could do. It's not the most glamorous sounding meal plan but it's doable. It's day 1 for me and I've made it all the way to my 2nd snack only cheating with one piece of fruit.
On to the "no poo shampoo". That's right. I didn't wash my hair with shampoo today either. I know it sounds absolutely disgusting, but honestly I have had unhealthy hair for YEARS and quite frankly just hate it most of the time. This woman's story is inspiring and has been able to completely recalibrate her scalp and gone a year with out shampoo. I'm not sure I'll be able to make this til I hit a turn around, but I happen to be out of shampoo - what better time to try!
Workouts. There's really no medium - you either love to do or hate to do it. Personally I LOVE a good workout, I just have a problem getting motivated and sticking with it. I have found two things I have vowed to committ myself to. My friend Lynee recently was telling me about doing a 5k (yeah right!) and then about the training program she used to get up to 5k. C25K - Couch to 5k. Literally meant to take you from being a couch potato to "runner" in 8 weeks. Now I am NO runner - but after looking over the program and hearing Lynee's testimony, I thought "I can DO this!". Then after reading a post on myfitgr.com about a new fitness location called "Pure Barre". Even though there is no actual dancing, only using the techniques I am immediately intrigued being a former dancer! (Ballet folks - get your mind out of the gutter) After telling a friend and also fellow former dancer about this place, couple days later she is emailed a Groupon for 70% of 5 sessions there! What luck! Needless to say we immediately took advantage and signed up.
I'm sure this sounds like a lot going at one time, but as once said to me "You have to make time" and the words of my old coach "Go big or go home" and of course Nike "Just do it".
