2013 has begun, and in 24 days I will enter into the final year of my 20s. If you remember back to the beginning, I started this because I didn't want to enter my 30s at anything less than my most healthy and physically fit. So, here we go. Starting tomorrow, my first day back from break, my fitness clothes will stay at school. I will be using the school's weight room and treadmill as well as my own classroom's projector for some videos to change things up, and when its not frickin freezin my sog might actually get to go on a walk! Simply put, 7 days a week, I will spend no less than 30 minutes being physically active. This is just a start, but a big one. I am queen of excuses, and this is a no-excuse pledge (learned by my previous professor and now colleague, Rhonda Fuelberth). Even if im sick, (unless I'm actually bedridden), or think I'm too busy between school, speech, honor choirs and the two nights a week I spend singing in my own choirs, I will be active. So, here I go. I'm not calling it a resolution, because those fail. I'm not calling it a diet, because so do those. I'm calling it a much needed alteration to my current lifestyle. As it begins I will only focus on exercise. But I know for maximum weighloss and health benefits my eating must also change, so look forward to that. But first, I must make it through 20 consecutive days of consistent, no-excuse activity. Then it's a habit and I can move to the next step. I will also aim for weekly weigh-ins and regular blog entries...hopefully! :) You ready for this ride? I am. And it starts now, with a walking video and some basic floor exercises and stretches.
