My apologies for being MIA for the past few weeks! In the past month, I have taken a new job back in North Carolina near my hometown. This has required lots of packing, moving and 9 hours of driving! However, my husband and I are in the process of settling in and LOVING being here in North Carolina. It is such a great place to live - I am so glad to be back and don't plan on EVER leaving again!!
While moving though, I've learned that it becomes a challenge to eat healthy and workout while you are doing all of this. BUT, I also realized that as long as you make it a priority, it doesn't just become an option and is easier than you think. Gas stations now offer healthier choices thankfully - I found fruit in several and fiber one bars! It is just so much better for you to make those choices than chips or a soda. Make wise choices!
I can also proudly say, that during the move, I only missed one workout - a swim! Completing this triathlon and being successful in it is VERY important to me and I refused to let the fact we moved interfere with anything. I have found there are always gyms in hotels or nearby, plus pack your sneakers- you can go for a run anywhere!
With the move to Sanford and Bud's new job, I've also reverted to being a morning gym person. Yep, alarm goes off at 5 and I am at the gym every morning between 5:15 and 5:30. I never thought I would be that girl at the gym so early - but you know what? I LOVE IT! It feels incredible to knock out 5 miles before breakfast and not have to worry about it that afternoon! Try it- you might like it!
I've got some great ideas for some upcoming posts including the Fit Chick Credo and other's opinions on you and your healthy lifestyle. Stay tuned!
