This comes inspired by my friend, Abbie, who started doing 30 days of cardio and logging it on Facebook.
Now, while I don't really want everyone I know on 'the Book' to know what I am up to, I really wanted to challenge myself on a similar level. I thought that creating a blog would help hold me accountable!
Research shows that any habit can be formed in 21 days, so my goal is more than double that and make it to the New Year without missing a day of cardio: 46 days.
My reason for doing this is simple: to get into a healthier lifestyle where exercise is just another part of my day. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer at a young age, and I should be taking better care of myself to do everything in my power to leave my fate purely up to genetics only. I also have diabetic maternal and paternal grandmothers - another fate I would like avoid.

As another part of my motivation plan, and after much deliberation, I will put my weight on here as well. My goal is to get back down to 195 pounds - what I weighed after my freshman year of college. This will not happen by New Years, that's for sure, but my goal is to not end this blog at New Years, but make it so that "I will exercise more" does not become another faded resolution that is abandoned by February.
I hope you enjoy following me; It all starts tomorrow!
