My Journal for my exercising practices.
It’s a new year and many people have already started working
on accomplishing their new year’s resolutions. I have tried for a few years to
keep my resolutions with little to no accomplishment. This year I decided to
make resolutions that I know need to
be addressed instead of making a list that’ll make me cringe……..never
again.
[I will most likely make a proper New Year’s greeting post
by the end of this week…….if I’m in the mood :p]
On my small but significant resolution list is to regulate and stay consistent to a
healthy living lifestyle.
Life is a blessing and I want to care for the body that I
was blessed with. It is also the temple of the Lord and He wants us to care for
it, spiritually and physically. The Lord Jesus blessed me with all my body parts
that still work as they should and I don’t want to take that for granted.
Today began the start of accomplishing that goal that will
forever affect my life in the future to come. I am a very petite young woman
(looks real young for her age ;) ) but that does not mean that I’m healthy and fit.
Size is not the only factor in living a healthy life and experiencing the
benefits of such living. I have my mom backing me up (more like harassing me to
exercise and such……..I LOVE YOU MOMMY!!!! MUAH!!!), and with her encouragement
I know I can make it.
So from today I will be documenting and charting my progress to my small/tiny body in shape and see how it affects different aspects of my life.
Hope I can be of some help to someone who is passing by my
blog.

Completed 15 minutes, then did another 15 minutes using resistance bands. Not bad for my first day of exercise of the new year.
This has made me realize that I am really out of shape and I am not getting any younger (I sound soooo old).
Here's to a healthier lifestyle and eating habits for 2015 and beyond.
