Intro post: I'm a writer. I need to write things down in order to remember them, process them and stick to them. Writing every day keeps me accountable and motivated. It also gives me a safe place to record my successes, release my failures and plan for the future. 

I will post weight/measurement updates only once a week, but will post work outs and food stories every day.  My goal for this month is to lose 4% of my body weight (approximately 8 lbs). But I am more focused on the long term goal of being strong, active, and loving myself and my life. 

Thank you for taking this adventure with me. 

 

Week 1, Day 1

Work out plan: 21 DF (upper body) + 5 km run +1 km swim 

Food plan: Keeping it simple, grazable and sustainable. The big key will be to not snack on the kids' food ;)
