Starting Again (and again and again) Day 1!

So many restarts and fails since my last post. Two weeks ago I ran a half marathon at Disney, and although I finished, I finally knew things had to change. I was 25 minutes slower than the last half I ran 4 years ago, I was so tired, and the pictures(eek). Things need to change and I have to change them.   

So today I started Advocare's 24 day challenge. No matter how much I worked out, my nutrition was not in check and I know you can't out workout a bad diet. 

I've seen some very positive results from people on this challenge and am dedicated to changing myself.   I got my pack in the mail last Thursday, but decided I needed to plan so that I could meal prep before starting it.     I spent a couple of hours figuring out what my meal plan would be and prepping the meals, snacks, and bags with my supplements.

I am glad I did! Today went so smooth. I was most afraid of not having my coffee, I was shocked that I didn't even miss it. I had appointments today and was stuck in traffic for an hour, so glad I packed my snacks, no temptation to stop somewhere. I really think I can do this. I stuck to the plan, got 60 mins of exercise, and feel good about the day.   I'm not quite ready to share the before pics I took, but I want to be accountable so I will post my highs and lows. Wish me luck.
