Things are going pretty well so far. The snow is crazy in St. Louis so I am pretty limited to indoor activities. I would rather be outside, but I am trying to avoid frostbite.

I started going to Curves three times a week, but I haven't gotten into walking on the treadmill aspect just yet. Between playing soccer once a week and Curves, my knee is back to its old self. By that I mean it is starting to swell a bit and is a little sore. I know I need to work through it, so I am staying focused. I actually feel that my knee isn't so bad until I get to my off day and thats when it swells the most. Weird, huh?!

I am also educating myself on nutrition and eating habits. Do you know what one of the most unhealthy sandwiches at Subway is?? It's the Tuna Sandwich!!! I couldn't believe it either. The more I learn about food, the better I can regulate how many calories and fat grams I consume. My biggest focus for the next week is balancing both my nutrition and my exercise. Today I talked to Coach Jenny and she really emphasized the importance of both nutrition and activity. I know I can't just eat better without burning calories and vice versa. So the next week I am going to focus on finding that balance. Check back to see how it's going!
