a new approach

So, here we go again... something slightly different, but very much the same.

ONE RULE: To keep going! Must not just survive week 1, but week 2, 3, 4 and so on.

I know I should and must try to >>

1. Eat healthier, plan my meals... (eat 1,100-1,250 calories/day on most days, and up to 1,600 calories 2 days a week!)
2. Eat more fruits and vegetables (at least 2 servings/day)
3. Have less process foods
4. Drink more milk (or 3 servings of dairy/day)
5. Exercise at least 3 times a week (30 minutes/day)
6. Continue running... just keep running! (nothing major, even a 10-15 min run session is ok)
7. Keep walking... try to get 10,000 total steps (walk/run) a day!
8. MUST incorporate strength training/abs.. and stretch!

That's it. Very simple... so pretty much, very similar to before, apart from the dough part cuz I'm broke at the moment, plus it didn't really motivate me in the first place. I don't know why... ahh! Let's just hope I can really keep up and stay with it. MUST GET PAST WEEK 1 and the weekends.

Alright, we'll see how everything goes. :)
