this I am ... this I wanna

 So this Saturday I AM running in my first official "race".  Deets posted next week :)

Above YouTube clip ....... now that's what I'm talking about.  R.A.D.

WHO ROCKS? ... the warpaint

well YOU do!

* I wanted to send a shout out to Sara T.  I got this great email, in which she told me about her running.  up to 5, under 60.  that's awesome.  entering races.  ie: fun runs.  i'm proud and impressed.  *

For those of you that made some sort of, any kind of commitment to a healthier 2011, how's it going?  I enjoy sharing our progress, and our tough days too.  didn't anybody ever tell you, "we're stronger together!"  or "united we stand, divided we fall!"  or .. ha psyche.  i think you get it.

I have some fun runs coming soon.  i'm excited.  we gotta keep pushing, choosing, deciding .. put on that "warpaint" and hit the track, the tready, the trails whatever.

on this evenings menu:

a seared tuna steak (covered in seasonings such as cumin, cayenne, coriander, s&p)
sauteed zucchini, spinach, mushrooms, and grated carrot with fresh garlic and ginger and a little sesame oil
tossing the veggies in to some brown rice and garnish w/ cilantro

mmm.  xot

1/5 - Louder Than Ever

 of the 5 senses this may just be my fave.  music.  laughter.  the sound of the rain on a roof top ( a pnw girl .. you miss it when you leave it) the growl of an engine that belongs to a sweet old car.  the first few times a year that I hear a lawn mower.  the sound of my breathing when i make it over that "hump" and find my pace (isn't that sweet??) these are some of the sounds that bring me joy.  i was thinking about spring coming and soon, i'll be taking my runs out to the streets.  i can't wait to get outdoors and listen to all of the sounds of life, the sounds that remind me that i am a lucky girl b/c i am alive.  b/c i can hear.  and better yet, i'll try to actually listen.  hearing and listening are defined differently ya know!
the cold war kids will be in boise 3.6.11   i can't wait.
i'm a lucky girl.

i love all types of music.  from social distortion (pictured above) or sufjan stevens to the boise philharmonic. music from the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, and so on ..  i'll admit disco is my least favorite.  i dig rap way more than some of that stuff. ha ...  to bands that are just now discovering their own voice, or are making songs in their dorm room on their electronic synthesizer! MGMT
i like all of this stuff b/c if you listen, all great music is about the stuff of life.  some of the big things and all of the little things and it is emotional stuff.  my adrenaline gets pumping, and i feel connected.

so anyway ....


of the 5 senses this may be my fave.

eat your heart out ..

I cannot take credit for this creation whatsoever.

"CM" is Chris, my vegan step-brother.  This is his dessert.  He brought it to our parents house this Christmas and it was so yummy, and guilt free!  I can't help but share the recipe.

With Valentines Day approaching I've been thinking about the typical sweets that go along with the day o'love.  Chocolates, or the little hearts with the sweet messages ... well, they are NOT Leeg approved.

BUT, this is!

Flourless Chocolate Tart

1 cup raw pecans
1 cup raw walnuts
3/4 cup granulated sugar
4 TB butter (Vegans like Earth Balance)
16 oz nondairy semisweet or dark chocolate chips or bar
2 cups milk (I'm sure regular milk would work, but if using nondairy I
would probably use Almond, hazelnut, or hemp)
2 TB kudzu or cornstarch
1/4 cup water
Sifted confectioner's sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375

Pulverize nuts and sugar in food processor.  Add butter until a thick
batter forms.  Press into a 9 or 10 inch tart pan.  Bake for 10
minutes until the crust turns golden brown.

Meanwhile melt chocolate in a double boiler or microwave.

In a saucepan, heat milk over medium heat.  It should be scalding hot
but not boiling.  While milk is heating, combine kudzu or cornstarch
with the water in a bowl or measuring cup until completely dissolved.

Add melted chocolate to milk and whisk thoroughly to combine (I
recommend whisking most of the way through putting the chocolate in
and then scrapping the last bit into the pot).  Whisk in thickener and
stir well.  Lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

The chocolate mixture will thicken slowly.  Pour over baked crust and
allow to chill two hours or overnight.

Dust with sugar before serving.  You can cut out a paper stencil and
lay that over the cake while dusting.

Enjoy!

I send many thanks to CM for sharing.xoT

NO PAIN .... no LOSS.

Why didn't anyone say anything?

A few weeks ago I picked up a copy of Valley Of The Dolls.  The title sounded familiar to me.  I had heard it was controversial in its time, but I had no idea exactly why.  ???

Haa.  I found out on page # 110.

There were two films made after the book.  I just Netflixed the original.  Patty Duke, Sharon Tate .. and some actress I've never heard of!  I'm looking forward to seeing it despite the mere 2.5 stars rating. lol  I guess the screenplay for the second "remake" film was written by film critic, Roger Ebert.  It has a rating of NC-17.  Umm yeah, that's soft core porn folks ...

Anyway, one of the characters in the book, gets a "picture deal" and moves out west.  Hollywood.  She begins taking "little green pills" that kill her appetite.  ***Just FYI, "Dolls" is code for PILLS.   YIKES.

 What if Leeg was just a little, easy to swallow green pill and the side effects were, a great body, and improved emotional and physical well being?  If only it were that easy.  But I think if we reflect on our lives, most of the good things didn't come easily.  I have noticed that my running has become a bit monotonous.   My "life-coach" said something to me last night that, at the time he said it, caused me to roll my eyes, it was "push yourself harder!"   I did today.  I ditched the "rappod" and the head phones period.  I only watched the Food Network today and had to wonder what it was the chefs were saying.  When I was done with my usual run I went over to the bike and did a cycling workout.  I was sweaty and I could feel it and I could also hear those words .. "Push yourself harder!"

It can be frustrating starting a new workout plan, changing our diets darn near completely, and as the weeks go by it doesn't seem that all the hard work is making any difference.  I'm sure we've all heard that it takes longer for women to lose weight than men.  Statistically, most women quit their workouts do to frustration because of a lack of results.  The female body was designed to support life.  We (generally) carry more fat and our bodies are reluctant to give it up.  This is just one of the reasons why the food choices we make are so important ... our bodies, by design want to keep that fat, ya know .. just in case we have a little baby.  And when the hormone changes kick in ... well I've heard that's a doozy too.

I know it gets repetitive, and can be hard keeping ourselves motivated to go to the gym.  Enter cliche here ............. NO PAIN, NO GAIN.  Or in our case NO LOSS.  Sorry ladies and gents, there is no magical little green pill.  Not one that won't effff you up in the long run.

Next time you find yourself on that tready or elliptical and you are wanting to get off, repeat these words to yourself "PUSH YOURSELF HARDER" ... remind yourself of the other things you have done and accomplished in your life that were no small feat!  Graduations, giving birth, raising those babies, getting and keeping a good job, reconciling with a loved one, forgiveness, fixing the entire Thanksgiving meal .. alone ...... whatever it may be that you have done before, Leeg really isn't that much different.

I was thinking today while running about some of the things I have learned from my parents. (yeah, I know.)  I was thinking how my mom has been a great example of how to love somebody.  Despite all the bumps in the road she has always remained faithful, positive, and encouraging.  Believing in her children, when quite possibly she was the only one.  I thought how I hope to take that example and show those I care about the same kind of devotion.  So fellow Leegers, I believe in you, in myself.  We can reach our goals.  I know it in my bones.

Rant- Some girls who go to the gym

Okay, so I am a firm believer about the gym. I am not someone who can work out at home for the most part because I get way too distracted. When I go to the gym I am able to focus and get a real work out going. Now with all that being said I tend to find myself being a gym snob. I don't want people to talk to me... I am not there to get hit on, or to make friends, I am there for one reason. Since I have this attitude I have a problem with getting really irritated with other people at the gym. This week I was at the gym getting my run on using the ellipticals that outline the indoor track. Two ladies walk in and start to walk around the indoor track and as they walk past I see the clothing that they have decided to where to the YMCA to work out in. One girl has decided that she is going to look like she is presentable with blue yoga pants, and a pink tank top. However, the other girl has decided to where black sweat pants with "pink" on the butt, and a white lacy tank top, with a bra that leaves no mystery. I kinda laughed when I saw her and decided well maybe she didn't have anything else clean to work out in. Then both of the girls proceeded to now run laps around track. After that the clear intent of my they were at the gym was clear, as both of their chests bounced around the track. Seriously!!!! ugh....! Sorry, I know I am a hater but child please. In my opinion the gym (especially the YMCA) is not dating pick up spot. Anyway, that is my rant...ugh, some girls who go to the gym...give me a break!

" ITALIANO"

Ciao!!! 
 I heart Dean Martin, and I couldn't think of a better way to introduce my current favorite little treat.

( What about my Detox you say?  Well I actually just got my hands on that aforementioned juicer last night around 9:30 ish and I was not going to start juicing then.  I am going to make all my juices Sat. and start it Sun, like I had originally intended!)  

On to yummy, "Italiano" style treat.

Now part of eating "Leeg" is simplicity.  Preparing food in a way that really showcases the amazing, fresh flavors of the veggies.  I'm not sure if I'd call this a Brucshetta or a Crostini??  I think Brucshetta is just the charred bread and it officially becomes Crostini once it is topped.  Most traditionally, with tomatoes.  This is how I make it!

Heat 1-2 Tbls olive oil in a small pan.  Add minced garlic clove and crushed red pepper flakes.  1tsp usually adds flavor without too much heat.  So naturally I go for 2 :) let simmer until fragrant (1-2 min)

Grape tomatoes.  I especially love to use the multi colored pack.  Red, orange and yellow.  I like the grape tom's because I find them to be a little sweeter and just the perfect size.  I slice them in half length wise.  Throw in the pan.  Saute until the skins start to peel, or about 10 min.

(Last night I also added baby bellas, and the tips of a few stalks of asparagus.  This bulked it up, and added a great source of anti oxidants and other nutrients)

chop fresh parsley and fresh basil leaves creating a generous Tbls and toss with veggies

sprinkle with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper!

You could use any artisan bread that you love.  For "Leeg" I tried a whole wheat loaf.  Honestly, it has been my only disappointment in this entire switch to eating only whole foods, grains, raw ... ie: uber healthy.  It just didn't get the crunch of the regular, more traditional breads.  Now, that being said, USE IT ANYWAY!  This is "Leeg" for crying out loud!  The flavor is still there, believe me and .... Today, I wore my old Juicy track suit thing(I had an easy day and acupuncture).  Yea, the one that gives the instant JLO booty.... and it was loose.  LOOSE.  My client said my butt looked "tiny".  I said, "did you just say tiny?" and he repeated "tiny!"  Well excuse my Italian but, "santa merda!!!"  I digress, just eat the wheat!  Hey, lol that should be a little saying of ours here at "Leeg" .... "Eat the Wheat!"  ok dumb.
Where was I?  Oh yes, just toast or throw the slices in the oven and top with the veggie mixture.  It's fresh, simple and perfezionare!

I dedicate this post to my Italian sista form another mista!xoT

Hola.  I have not forgotten about you, oh faithful reader(?) ....

I think the last time I posted was a week ago.  Yikes.  I'm not exactly sure what makes a good blog, but a whopping 7 days between posts can't be on the list.  No bueno.

So here are a couple food ideas, yummy ones.

Lunch:

1 whole wheat flat bread
spread with hummus (roasted red pepper flavor is yum)
bean sprouts
mushrooms
red onion
broiled/grilled chick breast if desired
pepper

Yopliat GREEK yogurt  2X the protein, 0 fat

Diet Ginger Ale if water just wont cut it.

mmm

So as I have mentioned before Saturday are my "free eat days" ... and this Saturday dinner was amazing.
I have not had any red meat in some time, but what kind of girl passes up a fresh cut fillet min??  Not this one.  So this is what we had ....

*1.5in fillet, patted dry, rubbed in olive oil, rolled in fresh ground pepper/kosh salt covering all sides.
        heat 2tbls olive oil in pan and sear each side of fillet 1-2 min.
        place a pat of butter on fillet and in the pan, place in a 400* oven.  cook until internal temp is 125ish
          for med rare!
*toss cauliflower in olive oil, minced garlic and red pepper flakes and roast in oven about 30 min.
*heat Tbls olive oil in pan, add red pepper flakes, minced garlic until fragrant, add chopped Kale.
         cook down kale for about 10 min.  add a splash of chicken broth, and spinach and toss!
ADD RED WINE. YES YOU CAN HAVE RED WINE IT'S A SATURDAY REMEMBER!!

had a little dark chocolate gelato for desert.  it was great.

On that note, I'll be starting a 7 day detox of sorts Wed.  Wed is such a weird starting day I think, but here is thing .. I need a juicer and wont be able to make my Super Green Juice, Carrot Beet and Ginger Juice, or my Blueberry Almond Milk smoothies until tomo when I can use a friends juicer.  I've been thinking I need to invest in one of my own.  Have you ever priced a juicer?  Pricey.  I'm thinking about looking on Craigslist to see if I can adopt a "slightly used" or "never been used" juicer.  One that some new year "resolutionist" purchased and then quickly realized they could not, would not use the thing and now are unloading said juicer. Ahhh anyhow ...  I'm gonna use this place as a food journal of sorts.  I've never done a detox before.  Most of them seem so ridiculous to me.  "Nothing but lemon water for 21 days"  Yeah right!  Impossible for this here food consumer.  I like this detox because I can eat on it.  I understand a detox of any kind may not be in the cards for some of you, but I recommend looking here and just checking it out.  I think even incorporating some of the detox into ones regular routine will add so many benefits and cut calories!

Coming later this week:  
detox progress/updates/rants
acupuncture (i heart it)
more healthy yummy concoctions
neo tundra cowboy @ the bouquet (p.s. i know the lead singer, he's rad.)  just listen!!

Another Long Lonely Road

mlk

had a nice run today ... gave me a little time to think about the power of mlk's words. while this blog is dedicated to the betterment of our physical bodies, my hope is that we can also cleanse our minds and find the kind of inner peace that really allows us to embrace, learn and care for others!xoT

Sugar...beware...cause it's every where!

I realized it has been a long time since I have posted, school has kept me really busy. I feel like I have no fun time any more. I knew this would happen as soon as school started but I am not happy about it. Plus this week I might be getting a 3rd job. I am a busy woman. So, my progress has been weird. My weight keeps fluctuating and it tends to get me down when the scale goes up. However, I am eating very healthy and working out 5-6 days a week...so, I know that extra weight can't stick around for long. I have been really good lately about packing my own food and eating about every three hours. This has really helped me to not get super hungry and eat what ever is in front of me.
Now to get to the point of my post. I wanted to share a little trick when it comes to how to pick items and food not over run by sugar. If you are trying to watch what you eat and not eat any added sugar make sure you are reading the labels of the food you are eating. I know the best way is to just not eat any processed foods..but c'mon lets be real it's pretty much impossible not to pick up something that comes in a box or a can. A general rule I follow when reading the labels of the food that I am buying is: read the ingredients and if one of the first five ingredients is sugar, do NOT buy it. That means that sugar is one of the main ingredients and it's not good for you.
This quarter at school I am taking a health education class and we learned that MSG and high fructose corn syrup are ingredients that trick your body into still feeling hungry. NO BUENO!
So, I really just try to be aware of what I am eating. I am feeling good. Go me, Go Tam and Go Leeg!

....

..... and the weekend comes to an end!

So, how was it?  Did everybody do something fun, or relaxing?  Have any yummy food?

I have made myself this little deal.  All week, I eat really healthy stuff and then comes Saturday and you know what .. I like food and I allow myself to have whatever it is I want on Saturdays.  Now this doesn't mean I go ahead and gorge my face all day, oh no.  I basically allow myself one meal.  Thus far, that one meal has been dinner.  I still eat healthy things for my other meals, which is no big deal because as I've mentioned before, I really truly like just about all foods and so my steel cut oatmeal w/ sliced banana is filling and good in my opinion!!  Just what was my indulgence you ask!  Well, I was out and about watching the playoff game and went ahead and ordered three, yeah that's right three Sierra Nevada's and calamari with a yummy lime aoli sauce.   I loved every minute of it! lol

Sunday a.k.a. "day of rest" .. (where have I heard that before?)  no running, no body pump class and didn't even do my new butt workout I stole from my new love GP's trainer Tracy Anderson.  Instead I watched some "Weeds", took a small nap and made some Baja Shrimp Tacos sans taco shell, replaced with brown rice.  Yum.  Gotta make some quick guac and pico and black beans too and seriously, it was so good and fresh and "Leeg"!!

Quick recipe for ya:  for 2

1 cup brown rice
black beans, throw in a garlic clove and some cilantro and let warm in a small pan

PICO:
quartered grape tomatoes(just eyeball)
1/4 diced white onion
chopped/seeded red chili pepper
cilantro
little fresh squeezed lime juice
dash kosher salt

GUAC:
1 avocado, mashed with a fork
1/4 diced white onion
cilantro
fresh squeezed lime juice
dash kosher salt

clean up raw shrimp
squeeze lime juice
salt and pepper
grill/saute

either use a corn tortilla or for an even more "Leeg"version just get a little pile of the brown rice and pile on the shrimp, beans, pico, and guac and enjoy!!!

The Golden Globes are on.  Of the nominated films, so far I have seen Black Swan(wowza! great) The Fighter(loved it) and Country Strong(ha, duh)  not sure which song was nominated!  I love going to the movies this time of year.  The good ones have finally come out!

Hope you all had a great weekend and if the winter rain and cold starts to get to you, make yourself those Baja Shrimp Tacos and be glad we all have a little more winter to go.  You know before the season of less clothing is upon us!!xoT

"Country Strong" 2

Sorry but ... I want to be asked to dance to this tune. I love L.O.V.E. enjoyxoT

"Country Strong"

A major part of Legion is diet.  The exercise is important, but to really begin to transform my body I have to watch what I'm putting in it!  I mean I can run 5 miles and depending on my pace only burn 400 calories.  So if I'm just eating any old thing my workout is erased and no change will ever happen.  I'm adjusting to eating mainly.. Protien.  Lots of it.  I want to be healthy first and foremost, and I want to be strong and toned too. Here's a look at what I've basically been eating since ol Leeg started.  I'm lucky b/c I enjoy these foods.  Their flavors agree with my pallet.  Eventually I know I'll begin to grow tired of the same old stuff and will have to bring out the recipes and switch it up a bit.  I also know that to get the look I want will absolutely require a strict dedication to the food choices I make.  As I've said for some time now, life is about trade-offs.  This is one I'm willing to make!

Breakfast:
Kashi Go Lean High Fiber/Protien Cereal with non-fat milk, 1/2 banana sliced and a handful of blueberries
1 slice whole grain/dbl fiber bread with a conservative spread of Nutella and the other 1/2 sliced banana
green tea w/ a bit of honey or 1 cup Starbucks coffee (thanks Jen) w/ a splash non fat milk

H20 H20 H20

Lunch:
marinate 1 chick breast in lowfat balsamic, grill or broil
mostly spinach and some romaine
grated parmesean
baby bellas large slices
1/2 avacado
squeeze fresh lemon juice
drizzle w/ red wine vinegar and balsamic + pepper.
                        ~ OR~
1 slice (aforementioned) whole grain/dbl fiber bread
spoonful nonfat cottage cheese
spincah
avacado
tomatoe
drizzle w light balsamic dressing + pepper

H20 H20 H20

Dinner:
I like to do a simple and so yummy eggplant parm.  For "Leeg" I just leave out the Provolone.

H20 H20 H20

been Snacking on raw almonds, Luna bars, apple or orange to get that sweet tooth and OJ .. calcium/vit d added!!

You know who else eats like this, and I will post more of her stuff ???   GP  I just saw her latest film  Country Strong.  1.  I love music and she did all of her own singing in this movie 2. she is fast approaching 40 and look at her!!  I heart Pandora and I heart  Gwyneth Paltrow. lol

" Ay Bay Bay"

Ahhh Sunday.  I did not work out today.  I am letting my muscles relax and enjoying some other forms of escape.  Found a great piece of milk glass today for 5.85 to add to my ever growing collection. And copies of Adventures of  Huck Finn, bc Mark Twain is brilliant and funny, and Valley of the Dolls, just cuz! Listened to a friends stupidly awesome ipod.  Who else has an ipod like this?  So many great songs. I can't think of the names, let alone the artists, of 3 good songs when I sit down to upload tunes on my ipod. So this brings me to the "rappod" I referenced  yesterday.  Did anyone wonder what that meant?  An ipod full of rap you say!  Yes.  I think the name was a dead give away.  But there is a story behind it.  My ipod was left out in the elements, or something so I was told.  Either way it didn't work anymore.  One of my besties works up at Crystal Mnt. and snagged me a new one out of the "been in there forever" lost n found.  I had to charge it before I could find out what was on it, and when I was finally able to turn it on .. the very first song was "

draft

with the exception of a few, the rest of the songs are all pretty similar to the Hurricane Chris jam.  lol  hence, my "rappod".  Anyway ... I don't listen to my ipod to relax ... I listen to others.  Or Pandora.  I heart Pandora.  I also like to look at photography blogs.  I covet this ability!  So if Hurricane Chris isn't how you like to relax on a Sunday either, and you have oh, 5 minutes DO check out the photos of one  Vivian Maier   As some of you may know I have a great appreciation and love for things from an era gone by, so maybe it's because of that love that I have fallen so deeply for the images Miss Vivian was able to capture, or maybe it is that she just snapped pics of regular folks, doing regular things out on the streets in the city my grandmother grew up in! I hope you look, and do enjoy!  xoT

Running From ..... Running Towards

I never was a runner before, and I'm not sure I can technically call myself a "runner" now, but I like it.  (Shhh... kinda a lot)

I had to move my runs indoors a while back.  We got some snow here in the Treasure Valley and it got really cold.  See now a real runner would be out in that stuff.  Not me.  I moved my operation inside to the Y and have been hitting the treadmill.  Running on a treadmill is different, yea I get that, but it's better than not running at all so let's just move on okay.

I used to think that running at the gym would be easier.  If for no other reason than I wouldn't want to get on the tready, run for 3 minutes and then stop with all those people watching me. Gasp!! To be so out of shape.  Well first, I no longer am under the impression that anyone is watching, nor cares and secondly, I think running on the tready is hard.  It's hard to focus my mind.  I get on the same machine everyday so that I'm positioned just under the two tv's that have on Fox News and the Food Network.  I plug in the "rappod" and read either the news or whatever cooking show is on at the time.  And my mind still wonders.

In a class @ BSU I was once asked to do about ten minutes of stream of consciousness writing.  It was goofy the things that popped into my mind.  How totally different one thought was from the one that followed it.  Running is like this, only I run for 55 min+/- so there is a lot of time for a lot of thought.  Yesterday I was thinking about this blog and how I was going to contribute to it.  "Would I be interesting?"  "Add lots of photos!!!"  "Will it ever have more than 1 follower?"  .......  "Why am I running?"  

Some people love to run, and others don't.  I can't say that I love running in and of itself, but what occurred to me yesterday is the stuff falling in love is built on!  Do I hope to get healthier and hotter?  Duh the blog isn't called Legion for no damn reason.  But it's deeper than that and reader(all 2 of you) strap on that oxy tank cause we're about to dive deep.  How deep?  Real deep. (Ry shout out) I realized that I'm running for myself, for a different type of "health".  I'm running away from old resentments, and past mistakes.  I'm going to leave old offenses in my dust.  I'm gonna run away from the cynical me, that saw just about everything through a negative eye.  I am choosing to run to fill up some time rather than pollute my body and mind with old habits.  I want to run away from the person, that despite being told over and over again how pretty she is, can't see it.  I am running towards peace of mind.  Towards a goal of, most importantly, self acceptance.  I'm running towards a more confident me.  Running to obtain a body I don't really have to worry about.  Running into a life where exactly what happens is what I choose.  I'm running to have 1 hour a day to myself to think about and remind myself of the things that are important to ME.

I was told once that I was "running away" .... guess what, now I AM.  and I'm running towards something as well.

Disappointing Day

Today was quite disappointing for me. I have been working really hard at legion and not seeing the results that I want. This has caused me to be stressed out and sad today. I know that I have to realize that its going to take time. I think I need to up the intensity of my work outs. Not sure but I feel down and depressed today.
-J

Metro Station - Shake It

This song is the inspiration of the day!
I love when this song starts playing during my workouts. It helps to keep me going. Hope this song brightens up your day.
Don't forget to SHAKE IT.

1st Day of Legion

Today is the first day of a brand new year and the first day of a brand new me! 2011 is going to be my year and I am going to change my body to fit what I want and achieve my goals. Today I am going to have to do my offical weigh in and measurements along with before and after photos. I wont be posting any of that info yet, but it will be on here at some point. I must say I am very excited about getting my body back into shap and having a lot of fun. I know it's going to be hard work but I am willing to do what it takes. I am also going to be incorporating the Body for Life Diet into my Legion along with the work outs.
So, with all that being said day one is not going as perfectly as I would have wanted. Need to go grocery shopping to get myself all set up but it will happen.

Hope that every one has a happy and healthy start to the new year.
