Happy New Year!

So I have been reviewing my daily calorie charting, and I haven't been consistent in staying under 1500 cals per day, so that is my first goal.

I also got an email from my yoga studio back in Ottawa, and they are starting a 40-day Yoga challenge. The premise is simple, this is the message:

It takes 21 days to change a habit. According to yogic science, it takes:

40 days to change a bad habit into a positive one;

90 days confirms the new habit in you;

120 days allows the new habit to become who you are;

1,000 days ensures you have mastered the habit

So in the spirit of this, I am going to incorporate that into my new habit of staying within my daily caloric range, and regular exercise. I have 17 weeks until May 2010, and I know I can do this.

I struggle with the all or nothing approach to life, so I'm learning to let go, and to just take things one day at a time. And to love myself no matter what size I am.
