A New Approach

A large part of me loves to track stats - like calories, fat grams, fiber grams, etc.  I get obsessed about calories burned too.  I am going to try to appease that part of me and find some balance and moderation.  I will write down what I eat, but not be so anal about it.  I will wear a heart rate monitor while exercising so I can track what % of my max heart rate I am in.  I'll write down those calories burned, but no more.

I want to find a balanced way to make healthy choices without getting bogged down in stats.  I'm still trying to find a way that works for the long haul.

So, I am committing to myself that I'll exercise for at least an hour every day for the next week.  I will lift weights 2 more time this week (I lifted yesterday), giving my muscles 48 hours to recover before lifting again.
