New Changes

I've had digestive issues for many years and while I always correlated to eating meat I usually only made half hearted attempts to fix the issue as I really really liked meat, lazy, scared of change etc.

This past week though, officially on June 13th I finally took the plunge and gave up meat, no more beef, chicken or pork.  I'm still eating eggs occasionally and cheese/dairy and sometimes fish but eventually I'll at least also give up fish too. 

So far I feel great with lots of energy!! I've never been huge or consistent on eating vegggies and salads but I'm supplementing that with greens drinks/smoothies now. 

I haven't weighed myself really and I plan not too until July 13 which will be a full month. My focus though has shifted a bit from weight to health but luckily they go hand and hand. 

I'm working out everyday, either walking/running on the treadmill or biking. Eventually when I figure it out I'll start strength training too. 

I'm reading these books or have read them or have them on my wishlist to read:)

Brief Update

New blog name and new blog address so please update if you are still interested in following me:)  I'll post a more lengthy update tomorrow but needless to say I've had some recent changes in my health and well being and my blog will be reflecting that:)  I still have the goal of weight loss but now I'm looking at it in a different way.

One thing that has happened in my life is that I have recently given up meat.  Though I really don't care for labeling myself I'd say at the moment I'm a Ovo-Lacto Vegetarian:)   I tried this in the past but it was a major fail but I have a good support system set up this time too:)  I may or may not go totally vegetarian in the future but I'm not in a rush.

Much Love
