1,2,3...GO!

So I am starting 3 new adventures in my life this week. Well, technically only two are new, but the third one might as well be new.

1. Start drinking black coffee. Yes, I am going to try it. Ryan says if I drink it black for a week straight I will be home free. (He actually said it may take two for me, but I am hoping for one) I really have grown to love my coffee, but I put about 1/4 of a cup creamer in it! Yikes! Not good for the waist line.
2. Vegetables Every Day by Jack Bishop. Its sort of like a mini Julie & Julia adventure. Let me start by saying, I am just a terrible vegetable eater! I tend to stay in the comfort zone of peas, beans, maybe a little salad, some corn and potatoes. Not anymore! I am planning on using this book to help me break free of boring and make a healthy lifestyle change of eating more vegetables and more variety of vegetables. It has the vegetables categorized alphabetically and goes through buying guides, how to prepare them, recipes and tips. Its really simple to follow. My plan is to buy what is seasonally fresh (which now supermarkets carry many year-round crops) and what is on sale. However, unlike Julie & Julia, this will be a weekly endeavor with a goal of introducing one vegetable a week. Some weeks will be vegetables that I already love, but prepared in new ways. There may even be weeks when I can use the vegetable in several different sides throughout the week, or really great weeks when I can use several new vegetables! The overall goal is to add new vegetables to my life!
3. Gym/workout x3 This is the not so new one, but right now it feels like it should be the first. I can't remember the last time I had a workout routine. All I will say is the goal is MOVEMENT 3 times a week.

I'm excited about my new little adventures. Most of all number 2. I will try an keep you updated on how things are going. If I don't do a good job, please keep me accountable:)
