I've been striving for optimum health for as long as I can remember. Who doesn't want to look and feel their best at all times?
But I also love to eat...and drink - and live life to the fullest! And I don't want to spend all of my time counting calories and obesessing over everything I put in my mouth...
So, it's been quite a journey and over the years, trying different diets, exercise plans, supplements and detoxes. Counting calories, fat grams, carbohydrates - you name it! Reading books, listening to meditation cds, attending countless Weight Watchers meetings and scouring the Internet for answers.
And life keeps changing. The last year was particularly eventful to say the least! I spent the better part of it planning a wedding, married my best friend, went on an amazing honeymoon, celebrated the holidays to the fullest and rang in the new year with a bang...
Now, here we are in 2011 - a new year with all kinds of potential. I started off with a 30-day Bikram Yoga Challenge which was a pretty intense, but definitely a worthwhile experience. I'll write more about that later. I've also recently decided to cut meat and dairy from my diet as an experiment to see how it makes me feel. It's been about a month now and I'm feeling pretty good. I don't know if I can officially call myself a vegan yet, but I'm taking it day by day. It has had it's challenges - and it's rewards - and I hope to chronicle them here.
So, if you're curious to see how it goes, stay tuned... :)
