Day One

Started the day a little sleep deprived! Stayed up a little late and had to get up at 5:00 AM to catch a flight! Over slept a little, but made my flight to Atlanta to work with a Customer.

Nutrition is going pretty well today, but I still need to find a nutritious low calorie Dinner. I did my first true Interval Run in a long time and I forgot how much it pushes your aerobic level! Of course, in addition to the interval training part I was in a residential area in Buckhead and it is not Indiana down here, they have Hills!

I also almost Tripped over a Christmas Tree! Someone had laid their tree out to be hauled off and I was trying to step around it. The street was narrow and SUV's (Land Rovers Actually, Nice Neighborhood!) were coming both ways and I was trying to stay close to the curb and I caught my toe on the top of the tree, NOT COOL.

Overall, day one was a success. I know from my last BTWG, that I will get my diet and exercise grooving, but it will take some time to get my routine down. I am a little nervous about the strength training, not because of the difficulty, but more about getting the flow moving. I am looking forward to the positive energetic person I was near the end of the last BTWG and beyond and I look forward to getting to the next level of Wellness on my journey!

Christmas tree jumping - I didn't see that on the cardio exercise sheet! Surely, that counts for extra points! Congrats to you Matt on a great first day especially while on the road. Go get some sleep, dude!
