Zone Diet Catcher Upper

On May 14th, 2010...

I decided to make a lifestyle change. For over a year now, I've struggled with my thyroid levels (grr!), and now my other hormone levels aren't where they should be. Tsk tsk!

So...

With the guidance and suggestion of my doctor, I decided to completely change my eating and exercise habits. After some searching on the web, and some researching at my local Barnes & Noble, I decided to start the Zone Diet--a low carb, lifestyle change, which helps to regulate hormonal stimulation and production. And as an added bonus, I'll lose some weight, work on becoming physically fit (again), and with any luck my hormones will start behaving well again! :)


Additionally, I incorporated regular, weekly exercise (swimming, walking, and yoga) and meditation twice daily. If you know me, once I decide to do something, I give 110%. This lifestyle change is certainly NO exception!

Most of you know...

I started this journey on Facebook (for personal accountability reasons), and now I've decided to write and post my food/yoga/me pictures here. I invite each of you viewing the blog to comment and encourage me as I continue my total lifestyle change. And please! If you have any carb-friendly recipes (or recipes in general), or low-impact exercise suggestions, I invite you to share those with me (and others), too!
