Operation- Healthy Me!

As most of you know I am in recovery from a recent back surgery. Along with the typical aches and pains I have also gained about 17 pounds. I know, right. It's rediculous. I would like to blame it on the steroids or even the baby, but frankly there is no excuse. NONE. That may not sound like much, but on someone who is 5 ft tall....trust me it's not cute.

Vanity aside, I want to be healthy. My absolute best! So I'm ready to develop a gameplan. My cardio level is acceptable to start P90x.(barely lol)but I don't think I'm ready for Insanity. As of right now Im doing around 45-55 minutes of cardio a day along with a 1200 calorie diet. It is BARELY peeling off. So it's time to take it up a notch.

First, I will be doing a week long detox. My detox of choice is known as the Master Cleanse. This is a excellent way to clense the colon and begin healthy eating.

Second, I will be restricting my caloric intake to 800 calories a day after I complete the Master Cleanse.

Third, I will bump up my daily cardio to 90 minutesfor around two weeks until my body adjusts through the cleanse and new eating habits.

And lastly, Once restricted eating has become second nature and energy returns to normal I will begin P90x.

Anyone that knows me knows how stubborn and determined I am. Stay tuned for the results...

Mommy is back!

So I quickly made the decision to become a stay at home mommy again. Doing this has left me with tons of time on my hands and given me the time to pay attention to things I truly care about. My family, my health, my house, and all of my fun hobbies! So I have started working on Eians baby book that I still haven't completed. Here are a couple of the layouts I am considering using for a couple of the pages.
