Happy New Year! It's 2012 and a new year is a wonderful reason to make changes. I'm excited we are starting this blog to create a support system for each other. Let's use this as a way to post what we're doing to create new lifestyles-recipes for good food, exercise plans, a log of physical activities, websites or tools to check out, things that inspire us, tips to improve our lifestyles, or anything else you can think of.
Through a new website I found called zenhabits, I learned about FITOCRACY. I sent you both invites to join this website. It makes fitness into a game where you earn points and rewards. I'm just getting started learning about it but you can follow people who sound interesting or inspirational. I think we should try it.
I'm also reading about how to live a simpler, less cluttered lifestyle through an ebook you can download onto your iPad or iPhone at http://zenhabits.net/effortless/. There is a "suggested price" to download it but you can change the price to $0.00 in the checkout and "pay it forward" if you feel so inclined. So far I like it, although he has an interesting view on goals. He says not to create goals because if you don't achieve them you will be let down and feel like a failure. How he explains it kind of makes sense, if you plan for something you end up there. If you don't plan for something, you can end up farther than you thought or in a totally different spot than you imagined.
Okay, that's all for now. What are your suggestions for doing this? Should we post things like 'Before/After' pictures or pounds lost? Successes and what we want to work on?
Love you guys and looking forward to your posts.
Hearts,
Abbey
