It's a new day!

Last week, beginning Nov. 11th, was my first day back on the wagon--for about a YEAR. Yep, that's right! Nearly a year off the I-work-out-every-day wagon. Am I upset about it? Nope. I mean, let's face it--I only gained 6lbs. Yep. A year of breast cancer, multiple surgeries, and NOT working out consistently, and I gained 6lbs.

Even though I wasn't working out (I couldn't, most of the time), I remained as active as I could and continued to eat clean. Shakeology truly was my lifesaver. I knew, that as my body was healing, I was getting all the proper nutrition I needed. AND...all my doctors were so impressed with my level of health--especially with my blood pressure. (Again...thank you, Shakeology!) If I wasn't 100% sold on this stuff before, I am now.

So...as I embark on my fitness journey, AGAIN, I have a renewed vigor for my life, and this body that puts up with me so well. There are still a few things I have problems doing: pushups, pullups...pretty much anything that takes chest muscles. But i'll get there.
