My #1 Ground Rule

Never...EVER....ever make rules that you can't do or eat anything. From experience, that's an instant way to fail.

Plus, red wine is good for your heart right?

Here We Go!

Well...here is my first blog post! I'm starting this blog out as a way to help keep myself motivated as I work towards a healthier way of living. I've done just about every type of diet you can imagine, but it's just so hard to keep up with them! As my mom keeps saying, it's not a diet- it's a lifestyle change. So, here I am, prepared to change it!

I hope you'll join me on my journey and maybe this blog can help you just as much as I hope it helps me. I plan to post any fun new workouts, recipes, and overall thoughts throughout this process. 

Here's to A Changing Lifestyle and here's to a happier, healthier me!
