How in the heck am I going to do this? How am I going to get my body into the chiseled health machine that I want and need it to be? Well, I have steps that I'm going to follow and hope and pray that it produces the results that my mind is picturing (alright, alright...I know it will if I actually stick to it). So here's what I'm going to follow: THE HEALTHY EDGE and THE EAT CLEAN DIET (both of which are very similar...The Healthy Edge is the mental and knowledge part, The Eat Clean Diet is more of the "how to"). Those of you that know me know this isn't a big surprise, considering I'm a facilitator for the freakin' Healthy Edge program! Which is one of the many reasons why I'm doing this blog...I've been a facilitator for the program for the past year and a half and I feel like a complete fraud! I haven't been living the principals, and it completely shows (although I hide it with some well fitting clothes and Spanx!). But no more! I'm sick of living under a pair of "suck your thighs in" shorts beneath all of my clothes. Here are the basics:
1. Drink 80oz. or more of water every day
2. Take a high quality multivitamin twice a day
3. Eat "green and clean foods" every day
4. Exercise 45 or more minutes every day
5. Eat every 2-3 hours
Surprised that there is no magic pill I'm taking? I don't believe in magic pills. I know that the only way I'm going to reach my goal is through hard work and dedication. I'm sick of the "have to have it now" mentality and I'm not going to hold myself to those standards anymore. Very few quality things are built in a day, and my health is one of them!
So here's how I did on the five goals today:
1. Yep!
2. Of course!
3. Yummy!
4. An hour and a half...leg day is always a killer!
4. I never feel hungry!
So far so good...feeling up to it? What are you going to do to CHOOSE YOUR HEALTH TODAY?
