Feeling fitter already
I've made it through two days of my 30 days of exercise. Soon to be 3 days (I'm heading home soon and will do a workout video when I get there).
Day 2 - Did a 30-minute workout video on Netflix (supposed to be ab-based but really it's just good cardio) and my weight-lifting regiment. Felt really good after doing it. I was dancing around and just really happy. Matt even commented on it. I was being silly but it felt good.
I made black bean and sweet potato tacos for dinner. Along with the working out, I'm trying to eat better. I love veggies but hardly eat them, for some reason. So, I'm working on it. Also, I'm trying to make at least two of our dinners meatless each week. Matt is such a meat-eater that it's a bit hard to do. Fish doesn't count as meat, so I'm trying to make one dinner a week using fish. We just both need to eat better. I'm not a diet person; I love food too much. Everything in moderation, right? We've done pretty well so far this week - Sunday night was baked salmon with couscous, Monday we had pasta with veggies and white beans, and last night we had the tacos. Of course, he added sausage to his pasta (I had a little, too) and chorizo to his tacos (which I also ate - and was delicious!). I don't usually eat meat during the day, so I felt like it was OK to "cheat" a little.
