The Beginning of our new Journey

Today I am starting our family on a new journey in life.  I am planning a healthy happy family in the end.

After suffering from a loss of a pregnancy last week I knew it was time that we do something.  Was any of this the reason for the miscarriage more than likely no but knowing I am taking this step to ensure that I am as healthy as I can be for the next baby.

So let me start by introducing you to the family.  We have our Sweet Pea born 9/22/09 still can not believe she will be 2 next month.  That is just crazy!  Next we have our lady bug 12/12/10 where the last 8 months has gone is beyond me!  And I can not leave out our dragonfly lost 8/6/11 I was 5 weeks along.  I am Shayna 27 and hubby will be 29 this week.  We have been married 3 years now 3/22/08.

Our plan is as follows:  We will be doing out workout DVD once a day that is about 30 minutes long.  Hubby will skip on Sundays due to working but other wise 7 days a week we will be working out!  Taking the girls in the stroller on a walk will be daily too.  Get them out and us walking to help!  Eating 3 meals a day is going to our goal to start.  Neither of us eat well so to eat 3 times a day is a good goal to start with.  Of course watching serving sizes will be with this too!

After we finish the soda in the house we are done.  No more soda!  I am hopeful with the working out that neither of us will need the caffeine for energy.  We should have natural energy!

I am going to personally start therapy for myself and also acupuncture with herbs to help prevent another loss when the time comes to try for number 4.

I look forward to sharing this journey with all of you and hoping that keeping this going will help me be accountable for everything and make sure I meet my goals.

Goals:
Lose 10 by Sept 25
Cut out all Soda by Aug 20
Eat 3 meals a day everyday by Aug 24
