Bailey and I at her school field trip in May. I am frompy looking so I hope I can change this. I am growing out my hair, it has been a long process but I am doing it.

I do not write a lot about myself or what I have been up to lately, so I thought I would take that approach on this blog post. On Father's Day I started a new diet according to my blood type. My chiropractor gave me a list of foods that were medicine for my blood type, neutral foods, and posion foods for my type. Pretty strict diet, but I am liking it actually. It has made me realize all the junk I put in my body before I started the diet. My goals are eating healthier to a healthier me, having more energy, which I need as a domestic engineer AKA stay at home mom, and finding if there are certain foods that create more problems for me with my acne prone skin that I have dealt with since a teenager. I am not doing any eggs, milk, or dairy of any kind for this diet. I can eat red meat, fruits, veggies, some nuts, fish, lots of it, turkey, chicken, and so much more. I prayed that I would not have any cravings or extreme caffeine headaches. I was a one cup coffee drinker, maybe a pop in the afternoon sometimes and I love my sugar and breads and grains. I do not get any of these with this diet. You can say "poor me," but really I feel so much better getting rid of this stuff. I make much healthier dinners and food choices just in 4 days. If I lose weight with this that is an added bonus. I would not mind losing 10-15 more pounds. I have found with this diet you can really do anything you set your mind to and your heart. I have lost 2 pounds in 4 days which to me feels like a slow start but I am thankful for the 2! Woot Woot!!!

I had 5 free sessions of Holy yoga, so I thought why not while I am eating better. Wow! My idea of yoga was a lot of meditation and relaxation, not so much. I loved the music the instructor played while working out. Let me tell you....it was a work out. I did yoga for the first time on Monday night and it is almost Thursday and I am still sore. A good sore though. Yoga made me feel at peace and it made me put my day aside and focus on God and to worship him during this time. If you are struggling with something right now or have in the past give it all to him and do something with giving it your all!!! Have a great week!!! What are you doing for a workout regime or diet these days? I would love to hear your comments.
