Ah, well sometimes you have to start again.

It's always difficult to start again. Especially when you feel like such a failure for stopping. But I've got more than me to think about, and I've got to understand that more than anything.

I did Shred for three weeks straight, saw amazing results, picked up great eating habits, and yet I still managed to stop the program in its tracks and fall back into bad habits almost immediately. I suppose that 21 days is not enough to quit bad habits and keep good new ones.

But that's okay!

I need to start again. There are so many reasons! I need the energy, I need to lose this unhealthy weight, I need to feel good physically, I need to get my body ready for another baby (no, there is no bun, I have to deep-clean the oven first).

So here we are in June. I'm alone at home with only my toddler to keep me company, and husband who only eats dinners at home. The rest of the meals are completely up to me to make and serve to myself and to little miss Alice.

I looked around and finally found the Shred book I'd bought months ago. I'm going to go read it and really try to get the ideas in my head. I've also made a vlog, which I will include at the bottom of this post. 

It's time to get serious and healthy and happy. :) Let's do it!
