The Dawn Project, Day One

Intake for the day, I used the CRON-o-meter and I'm at 1248 calories. I have to figure out how to add more calories for a total of 1700, but I haven't gotten there yet. I'm thinking maybe a big bowl of broccoli and some rice?? It seems like a lot of food, but that's what happens when you start eating well again. More bang for your buck.

-Coffee with half and half and little sugar
-Smoothie made with blueberries, banana, hemp protein, and water
-3 c. romaine
-1/4 c reduced fat feta cheese
-2 TB homemade vinaigrette
-1 apple
-Raw gazpacho
-2 large eggs
-Salsa
-1 c pineapple
-1c watermelon
-2 veggie 'chicken' patties
-Hamburger roll
-3 mugs green tea w/ total of 1 TB sugar
-H2o Galore!!!

I'm back, baby! I didn't make boxing yesterday, my son's father was late getting to my son's soccer game, and I didn't have time to make the class. Grrrrr. I was really really ticked off when I got back home, but I ended up discussing it calmly with him and he apologized.

However, today is the day. I'm calling it The Dawn Project. I know, silly name, but I even made an Excel sheet. I was inspired by a new blog I found, called Ag's LIFE & CRON Blog. I've put columns for weight, calories, and exercise. Today I got in Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred, Level One. I really wanted to quit about halfway through, but I didn't. I sucked it up and I feel so much better for it:) My little one was my workout buddy. He would watch me, watch the video, then do the exercises. His squats were soooo cute! He even did 'crunchies' with me! I'm proud to set a good example for him that will hopefully stick with him for life.

So to anyone out there who's struggling, come on and join me. I've been slacking for far too long and it's over, rover! I'm over it, how about you???
