Word of advice to myself... even when you do all the chores you need to... do NOT reward yoirself with too many drinks. You will still enjoy yourself having 5 rather than 10 or more :(

Reinvention
Started to slip after being home for Christmas. Really not happy with myself since moving to Canada. It isn't a time issue, it is a desire issue. I would rather sit on the couch with Kyle than get my ass to the gym. My solution, morning workouts. It only sucks for like 5 minutes... once I can work up the effort to get my shoes on, I am like... well, I made it this far, no turning back now. PLUS then when I get home, I make dinner and lounge on the couch guilt free. I already kicked my butt that day... I can relax and enjoy my time. My eating habits have made a complete 180. By focusing on what I am buying at the grocery store, and making healthier choices, I feel better, look better and do have more energy. I eat probably 8 times a day, but this means- small breakfast (a banana, bagel, something small), piece of fruit 2 hours later, lunch (soup, chicken salad) something clean and with protein, then 2 hours later another healthy snack. Dinner, then another snack! I never thought that would work for me, but by making the right choices, I really notice a difference... and I feel good. Amanda knows that when I do eat something bad, I notice immediately! And I am back to that point. Why put crap in my body if it makes me feel like CRAP!
The other thing I did was stop smoking and limit drinks to 3-5 per week. It is only week 1, so we will see how that goes!!!
