I am too excited to finally start this blog. Thank you for visiting. I will be posting fairly frequently to keep track of my nutrition/exercise, and weekly I will try to discuss an article, recipe, news piece, book, or whatever applies.
I will begin by providing a little bit of background for those who don't know me. I'm from Ohio! I'm a month from thirty. I stay home with my two year old son. I graduated medical school in 2009, and I want to eventually become a child psychiatrist. I have been dabbling in vegetarianism forever. And I love to dance!!!
I became interested in veganism in 2011, and have been doing a lot of reading, and "googling" since then. Personally, I want to become "veganish" because I want to eat clean, decrease my carbon footprint, and feel comfortable about the origins of my foods. My husband and son both choose to keep their chicken, and I will continue to support that! My GOAL is to jump in head first -- tommorow -- that being said -- Christmas is on the horizon, and I will be going home AND partaking in dairy products. I just want to be perfectly honest with you!
I just joined a gym a couple months ago. I have been going about 5 days a week. My husband has so graciously helped me make a strength routine, which I will share with you down the road. Currently, I try to attend spin classes at the gym three times a week, and belly dance class once a week. I continuously tell myself when I reach my goals I can enter a fitness/figure contest, which is pretty much garbage, as I don't have the time, nor resources for such things! We all can dream! Right now, I am apparently 5'4", 120 1bs, 22% body fat. My goal is to trim down to about 18% body fat, and look better than I did in high school.
As I wrap up this post, I will admit I just finished off some Papa John's and two tofutti ice cream sandwiches (Yummy vegan treats!). It was all so very good, but the fun and games end now my-friends! Peace and love!
