When I was invited to this I thought, "hey, a fight club? I'm game!" As it turns out, it's a little less Fight Club and a little more diet and self esteem. Well, ok, I'm still all in.

Whether it be the desperately difficult challenge of correcting my diet or the exponentially more difficult task of gaining a physique worthy of the term, "fit," I hope to be able to rise to the occasion.

I have a few goals in mind and I'm sure more will be added as I realize the veritable impossibility of improving my diet without making a goal to eat a certain amount of vegetables or realize how difficult it would be to decide to run 4 days a week without making a goal for buying some fitness friendly clothing beyond the glittering spandex unitards to which I am so accustomed, etc. . . So here's the list:

GOALS (I put it in read because it's more menacing that way.)

Firstly: To drink more water. At least 8 cups and maybe even a titch more depending on how much I pretended I drank when I actually doused my overheated self with it during the workout.

Secondly: To run or otherwise raise my heart rate 2 times a week.

Thirdly: To do yoga once a week.

Those are tough but now come the biggies.
Fourthly: To not eat anything that is loaded with sodium, sugar or that takes the form of any of my favorite Wonka candies.

Fifthly: Eat a balance diet.

Sixthly: GO TO BED EARLY!

That last one means that I should be ending this post sometime aaarounnnndddd NOW!

P.S. It's a pleasure to be part of this challenge and I am so excited for the opportunity to improve my diet and health.
