Recap and catch up!

Hello there again! It's me! This past week has been insanely busy! 10 hour days at work and late nights at home make for a not so easy week when it comes to eating and exercising! I did however get at least 10,000 steps every single day Monday through Friday just at work alone!! Which is like 5 miles ;)

Anywho...kind of to sum up where I am at the moment. I have started taking the first five minutes of my day and beginning it with scripture and quiet time with God. This is something I felt I needed to do and there is an app on my phone called first 5 and it lets you set this nice pretty alarm sound and you touch it and the devotion opens up. This is really helping me set the tone for my day which helps keep me focused! 

I haven't had a chance to watch any videos from Netflix but my Plan is to watch some each day on my lunch break to help me get my mind wrapped around what I. Really need to be doing to fuel my

Body! So with that being said, I have decided that the month of September I am really going to focus on my food and diet. What this means for me is that I am going to take care to plan my meals and really pay attention to how each food fuels my body! I've also looked up several detox smoothies that I want to try for either breakfast or lunch during the week! Something to just help me flush the toxins out! I am really going to focus on watching the gluten and sugar intake for sure...but I will allow myself one cheat meal per week! :) 

As for exercise...I'm not really going to focus on that this month other than trying to be more conscious about being more active at home...aka not just sitting down! There are plenty of things to do plus some cute little toddler loves to run around! 

Emotional wellbeing and me are still struggling but I really feel as my frost five minutes of my day starting out with God has a really helped me! I plan to continue that and really just actively trying to remember I am a beautiful woman that God created...yes I have flaws and things I don't like about me but I am working to change that one day at a time! 

Challenge time! This is something I really wanted to do for myself this week so I figured we can do it together! I want us to kee a food journal! Every meal, snack, what we fdrank etc. but the kicker is...I want us to actively think about and jot down with each meal/snack how hungry we were and how we felt after eating (as in how did it make our body feel...more energized, satisfied, sluggish, etc.) I'm

Hoping this will help me (and you to bro) to really be in tune with what we are eating, why we are eating it and how it makes us feel! 

Write back wth your thoughts :)
