It's a New Year!

I'm not very good at posting often, but I'll try to start changing that this year :)

I've got a couple of different resolutions (not going to post all of them on here), but I will post some of the big ones. Without further adieu:

• Give up Diet Coke
• Get back to a healthy, happy weight for me
• Workout more regularly
• Get my half marathon & full marathon speeds up - new PRs for both! 
• Do another sprint triathlon 
• Save up more money!

In other news....I'm doing a detox diet right now through my awesome nutritionist Ashley. She's amazing. The whole idea behind it is to clean out your system of bad foods and reboot your liver. Also - it serves as a basis for seeing what you're allergic to for food (oh how I need to figure out my allergies!) In the detox, you eliminate caffeine, gluten, refined sugars, chocolate, eggs, and milk.Eliminating the caffeine hasn't been that bad - I'm just drinking tons of water. The chocolate on the other hand....all I want is chocolate!

The fun part about it has been getting to try out recipes :) Yay cooking! I love to cook.  The newest recipe I tried this week (always great recipes on this blog)
