Turbo Fire Day 1!!

Well, I survived! I kept trying to talk myself into quitting, but I powered through. Today was Fire 30 and Stretch 10. Stretch 10 was AH-Mazing! It felt wonderful after such an intense workout.
I vlogged this morning about my breakfast smoothies.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I am also anxious for Wednesday. I got a second wind tonight and found myself wishing I could go run it out on the treadmill. 

I had a good day food wise- not the best, but a lot better than what I have had recently. Tonight's dinner was so good! Its amazing how good REAL food tastes. 

Grilled chicken breast topped with sauteed onions (sauteed in coconut oil) 

Broccoli steamed and tossed in cracked black pepper and sea salt. I also melted a teeny bit of fresh mozzarella

Squash sauteed with coconut oil, sea salt and cracked black pepper.  

I'm Vlogging!

My first vlog is up. Be gentle. ;)

Here we go.

Yeah, its Thursday- but I'm ready to get started with my 2014 fitness goals. I'm having to be a little creative at the moment because I've figured out that it is a bad tooth that is causing my pain. The antibiotics have helped significantly, but I will need to go get it taken care of soon. I'm not sure how strenuous exercise will leave me feeling, but I guess we'll find out. I miss it! I miss the gym, I miss the feeling of being strong. I'm still planning on starting Turbo Fire on Monday. I can't wait!

We did find out this week that we have several other Dallas trips that are imminent. Thankfully, my gym is Anytime Fitness, so surely I can find one that I can travel to with ease. Otherwise- I'll have to get creative and find those stairwells! ;)

I have two projects I am thinking about adding to my journey. One- is I would like to take daily (or almost daily) pictures and create a time lapse video at the end of the year.
Secondly, I want to start vlogging, and break into YouTube.  I may not make many videos- and I may not get any views, but I think it will be fun to look back and see where I started and where I end up.

I have a lot of things I'm working on to help myself, and to create my support system.  I'm feeling the fire again- and feeling very excited. I'll share links to my channel and videos once I get it set up!

As for now- if you aren't following me on Facebook, you can do that here.

Happy 2014!! I am so excited for this year and what it holds for me and my family. The new year has greeted me with some sort of face pain. The doctor says its a sinus infection, but I have no other symptoms. There has been a mix up with the medications so I have been unable to start on anything yet. I am hoping that it will be all cleared up by the time I am slated to start TurboFire.

My anxiety is at a peak right now for some reason. It seems to come and go. I have faced some situations where I expected to feel horrendous anxiety and I have faced them with ease. And then, times like now- where I really have nothing to be anxious about- I feel anxious day and night. The nights seem to be the worst. They always have been. One day soon, I will wake up and be anxiety free. There seems to be no rhyme or reason.

That being said, I am so very excited for this year. I am going to try and blog on a daily basis. There may not be much sense to it, it may be random, but I miss blogging so much. Facebook has taken over, and its so much easier.

So here's to the new year, and the continuation of improving me!

May your 2014 be filled with blessings!
