30 Day Challenge: Day One

I hate diets.

Like absolutely hate diets, however they hate me too so it is okay. I know I did not invest too much time into yesterdays post, mostly because it was late and I already KNEW that today would be too long to sleep little. I was up at 4am to get to work by 530. Its basically been a party.

So day one as a non-junk-food vegetarian:

My day started fine enough, two kids packs of apple sauce and a bottle full of water.
For lunch I had a vegan burrito, which I favored long before I EVER thought about being vegetarian. Following I splurged on a few animal crackers and gold fish. I also had a gatorade.

Around 1, my migraine started. I am no rookie to caffine migraines, however their effects never really get "easier". So today has been tough.

The Ted Talk I watched was about living passionately, and my exercises were killer. However, I did not quit. I did complete the day, and all thats left now is some alone time with my God.

Thank you for believing in me. Im sorry for the abrupt post. Not feeling quite as fabulous as one would hope.  

Change By Fire

I have to be pretty quick with my thoughts, as I have allowed myself only 10 minutes to write today.

It is no surprise to you that this Changed Living Journey has been going on for *sigh* maybe 21 years now. This blog itself is about two years old, and my ultimate growth as an individual, though widely expanded, covers few (if any) of my original goals.

I am educated. I feel smarter, open-minded, innovative and creative. I feel like I have the sources, and I have the knowledge to make these life changing decisions based on actual premise and not because I want to look like a model on TV.

So here it is. Take 75.
And the thing about this change, its going to be a lifetime of decisions. A lifetime of messing up and restarting, a lifetime of a battle. Thats okay. I use to put myself down because I felt incapable of making changes, of pursuing a goal- but some things come naturally, and some things are 21 years in the making.

I promise to do my best to make this my first step towards actual change.

-30 days of a plant based diet, no meat. Vegetarian.
-30 days of fitness. Hard fitness. No giving up Fitness.
-30 days of Jesus. Of God. Of pursuing the lord, not men, not alcohol.
-30 days of Prayer.

I am also going to do my best to surround myself with inspiration, and positive influence.

I am running out of time to type tonight, but tomorrow is official day one. I look forward to writing you..

Yours,
TJ
