My first real Health Kick!

Over the years I've always had some interest in being healthy.  I got into organic eating my freshmen year of college.  I always enjoyed walking and being outdoors.  But never was I truly into working out. 

Last summer I got into the couch to 5K app, and though I enjoyed it--the summer heat eventually had me give up. I've always been that way until recently.

My hubs has always been very athletic, he is an excellent golfer (had been playing since age 6) a soccer player, and an avid tennis player (plays three times a week).  This always discouraged me and intimidated me.  But, in starting yoga and enjoying it I've really found my own path to being fit and healthy!  I highly recommend it.

Now, in addition to yoga 1-2 times a week I also have an app that has 15, 30, and 60 minute classes (yoga studio--totally worth the 4 bucks).  I've been doing this guts and glutes work out from Pinterest:


And, I've been watching everything I eat and starting my days off with something like this:


And I feel so much better!  These days, I wake up and I'm not exhausted.  I'm happy to go hang out with my sweet girl, split a smoothie with her dad, and be active all day.  I get home from work and still have energy to go on a jog or to yoga!

The best part is noticing my body slowly tightening up.  Noticing that I feel comfortable in a fitted shirt.  And it really doesn't take that much effort.

My main objective in this is to really get fit--and to hopefully have an easier time having babies because of it!  

If you have any tips to share I am all ears!
