Introduction to the wellness blog

My workplace was looking for a new "wellness champion." After trying to ignore the request, then finding out no one else had volunteered, I decided it might be fun. I'll post items from time to time, and hope others will contribute their own suggestions. The goal is total wellness - body, mind, and spirit.

I'm on a new exercise kick myself - thanks to Groupon and Living Social. I bought all these cheap one month trial memberships to various exercise places around town. Now I have to use them. The timing was great since I can't afford the new wardrobe I'd have to buy if I didn't start to change my bad habits.

This isn't going to be easy. I've been exercising at least 3 times a week for the past month, cut back dramatically on my food intake (and no, I'm not starving myself - can't use that as an excuse for my body deciding to stop digesting my food), and managed to loose 2 lbs, which I gained back after one delicious meal of bbq ribs. But - I'm not giving up!
