So yes, I haven't blogged in forever. Actually that's not true, I have been blogging on my website (www.dragonflydance.com) until recently when the lovely Shannon Siriano took over for me. So basically a lot has happened since my last blog, I got pregnant, had a baby, and started a company to showcase my work. So far all is going really well and other than being totally exhausted, I am very happy.
Which brings me to my next point. I am terribly exhausted and still holding onto about 5-7 lbs depending on the day. So I am on a quest this year to really get myself as healthy as possible and in terrific shape.
I take two ballet classes a week in addition to teaching as well as rehearsing. Which is a lot of movement but no longer serves to keep me in shape. I've noticed since I've had Jacob it takes SOOO much more. Hopefully once this snow melts and it gets a big warmer, I can resume walking as well to add some cardio to the mix.
So basically I am going to try to use this blog to keep a record of things I am doing with my diet and fitness that help. First up, I am trying to eat a LOT better. I'm cutting down on meat and upping veggies. Most days for lunch I eat a mixed greens salad with tomato, avacado and quinoa. I can't cut out the balsamic vinaigrette, because its too delicious. But I use the reduced fat Paul Newman brand.
I'm also drinking Mochatonix and trying to cut down on coffee. Mochatonix is AWESOME. All natural caffeine and vitamins. Mike calls it, "Mommy's little helper" because it tends to give me quite a boost. It also has a fat burner in it as well, which will hopefully help to kick start my metabolism a bit more.
Anyway, wish me luck! Hopefully I'll have that hot yoga body back soon!
