My First Post

This is an attempt at accountability for myself and my fitness goals. I currently am 5'6" and weight 160 pounds. My goal is to weigh 135 pounds...so I have a little ways to go yet. For Lent this year I have decided to add a good habit instead of giving up a bad one. I have decided to workout everyday of Lent...all 40 days. So far I have stuck to this, but it's only been 3 days! I am hoping that this will keep me focused on my goal, too, as it only takes 28 days to form a habit. Today I did 25 minutes of cardio plus ab work. I am trying to stick to the Fat Smash plan by Dr. Ian Smith because I think that it is a healthy way to form new nutrition habits. Plus, I did it this summer and lost about 15 pounds. Then I got side tracked with the holiday season...don't we all? So now I am back to trying to stick to it. Nutrition is probably the thing that I have the hardest time with. I plan on weighing myself on Tuesdays and I plan on posting progress pictures as I go. I guess that means that I should post a beginning picture, too. I really want to just be fit and look fit. I want to be an example to others and an inspiration. I also want to lose my "baby fat" from my last pregnancy so that I am not carrying extra if I have another baby. I would like to try to have a healthy pregnancy and be one of those women who looks great even after having a baby. Hopefully I will be faithful enough to this to post every day! At least for the next 40 days!!!
