It's my Birthday...

And I'll cry if I want to. Actually there will be no crying today. It is a great day.

I was a little worried that I would be depressed...turning 30 and all, but I am not. I still feel 20, and I have always heard, 'YOU ARE AS OLD AS YOU FEEL'! So, I guess in that aspect, I am still 20.

Still being 20 and all in my head does not mean that my body still feels the same way. I have decided that I am am taking a new healthy look on life. I am going to eat better and exercise more. Besides wanting to lose weight, I have to lose weight. We are going to Chile for New Years...and I can not be the "TYPICAL FAT AMERICAN". Another reason for having to lose weight is my husband is running for congress, and I refuse to be the "Typical Fat stay at home wife/mother."

So, starting today, I am making new lifestyle changes.
1)More organic foods
2)Cooking nearly every night (meaning 5 day/week, and not just heating up leftover or using frozen meals)
3)Exercise at least 5 days/week
4) 5 walks with Hannah and Will/week
5)Trying to talk my husband into some of these changes as well. (now this is going to be a hard one)
