Spin Class Schedule and some diet changes/ramblings

Probably for the rest of the year my spin class schedule will be as follows:

Monday 5:45am W 7th
Wednesday 5:45am W 7th
Thursday 5:45am Hurst

They are looking for a replacement for my Wednesday evening class at W 7th.  I am just to busy at work this time of year and school started on Monday.

Now for my diet ramblings:

Some of you may know and some may not.  I have given up meat.  I have not had ground beef in like six months(since the whole pink slim came out) and I am a week without any meat.  Those who know me know I was never a really big meat fan so this is not really difficult for me.  The hardest part is finding soy free protein sources, as my activity level requires a lot of protein.  Thanks to google I have been able to find some.  I will not be cutting out eggs or dairy those will be staying in my diet. (Friday August 31st: All Natural Organic meat such as chicken and turkey IS remaining in my diet.  Like Jillian says "eat what comes from the ground or has a mother".)

I have not been as disciplined with my processed foods as I would like to be so I am going to try and get better at this.  Cutting processed foods mean not eating anything out of a box or bag that has more than 10 ingredients.  All 10 of those ingredients must be REAL things and not words you cant say that take up a whole line.

 I would also like to start cutting my sweets WAY down!  I will start this process on Monday.

I have started slacking on the soda.  I have not had a diet soda in 6 weeks.  I went 4 weeks of no soda at all!  But the last 2 weeks I have had a few sodas, they are now back out completely starting today!

I do all of these things to live the healthiest life that I can.  I do not want to be sick when I am old because of poor choices when I was younger.  Eating a clean healthy diet and exercising properly will help in that department.  I would also like to see the scale 10lbs down by my 30th birthday.  It is amazing how much your food/alcohol choices can out weigh your exercise routine.  When they say it is 80% diet, 10% exercise, and 10% genetics they were not lying!  That means you have 90% control over how healthy and fit you are.

That is all for now!

Stay fit my friends!
