In the swing of things

So its the second week of school! YAY!

There is very little likely that I will keep up with my blog during this semester. I am taking SIX classes! YIKES! I know.

Well, I am going crazy 24/7 almost juggling everything I am doing. And you know what, its working. I have to give God all the credit because without Him I would fall and not get back up. I started my nutrition and diet therapy class last week and love looooove the book. Now the teacher, not so much to love. She is one of the monotone teachers, who says "UM"... A-LOT! I am super duper bored in class because I am already so far ahead in the book. I am trying to keep interested, but my patience is fading fast. I just may try and switch to her online class that way I can speed through this super easy subject, and not have to go to school so stinking early. Well, one good thing that is coming from the class is that she talked to us the first day about the choosemyplate.gov website... I love the site. I found it at the very beginning of this year and was addicted after the first day. It had loads of information about eating healthy and balancing meal plans and all that jazz. :) YAY! I'm a nerd, I know. Whenever it comes to nutrition, I want to know everything! Annnnnyways, I have since found my way back to the web site and realized I've lost 3 lbs. since the beginning of the year. WHOO HOO! OK. So, I am once again hooked on the super tracker part where you can input all the food and drink you eat in one day and it will tell you how you are doing on eating right, etc., etc. CHECK OUT THE SITE! IT's truly awesome. It will blow your mind with how good or poorly we are eating. I was shocked about how little carbs and protein I really eat. I stick mainly to veggies and fruit. Well, needless to say, I think, I am back on to balancing my diet... AND I have starting working out again. BIG YAY! I have already worked out 167 minutes this week. :) GO me!
Anyways, I just wanted to blog about the first week of nutrition. I don't even have time to begin to rant about my other classes.

Lesson learned this week: Balance my diet better. Hello!  ;)
Thing I am doing well: eating lots of fruits. and working out strong.
Things I need to work on: Better balance my diet, for real. and staying in my budget for food each week...
Things I look forward to this semester: toning my body through Yoga and Running!!!

Gotta love it!

God gave me the desire to be a Holistic Nutritionist.
