So, already I am slacking in the blogging aspect of my life! Note to self: Must remember to update blog!!
Dan and I haven't started the solid raw food diet yet. I have read a lot of research on it and plan to try it one day. As for now, I, (Keelie), have joined the fitness challenge at my gym for motivation to increase my class attendance and weight loss. I am hoping Dan will be able to join me soon.
I regularly attend Zumba, Pilates, Abs and Buns, and Kickboxing. I am hoping to attend as many free bootcamp sessions on Saturday as I can, but it will often interfere with our twin's t-ball games. Dan has taken on coaching the t-ball team (Go Rockies!) and so we have a lot of added responsibilites in our lives now. BUT, at least this is sports related and gets us all out of the house and requires some fitness challenges.
I have been making healthier choices both in my grocery shopping and when eating out. It is a lot easier than I thought it would be. I have lost 6 lbs in the last 2 weeks, but have lost 15 lbs since October. I hope to lose 20 more lbs by summer.
Until next time,
Adios!

Something has got to change.
Today, we have decided to document our journey to obtaining a healthier lifestyle. We have MANY excuses of why we cannot eat right and exercise. Hopefully, by creating this blog, we can now hold ourselves accountable and actually be successful this time. We hope to post our exercise efforts of the day, and what foods are working out for us.
As of this hour, we are researching the raw foods diet. This particular meal plan, seems to be the healthiest but most challenging to accomplish. This is a fairly simple concept. Eat uncooked fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, grains, sprouts and sea vegetables.
There are many reasons why people eat a raw and living foods diet:
Health: Persons embracing this type of diet invariably experience improvements in their general physical and mental status, including more energy, better health, more energy, weight loss, detoxification, and a sturdier immune system that better resists and recovers from just about any kind of disease... and the list goes on...
Energy efficiency: Since you no longer have to cook, you don't waste electricity, and save the environment.
Since you eat organic agriculture, you help to save the planet. Most become more in-tune with their body; many report definite spiritual improvements.
No animal products are used, so the animals appreciate it.
