I attended a webinar yesterday hosted by Health Fitness Provider Network. Awesome! Dominique Adair, MS, RD was the speaker and she kept me interested for 2.5 hours. Know how hard it is to sit still for that long??? Diet Hype: Seeing Through the Haze and Navigating the Maze was the theme. Tons of info! What I really took away from it, though, was the importance of keeping a food log. She actually refuses to take on a client if they will not agree to logging their food consumption. Of course, she took it one further since her audience was primarily personal trainers and really hit home with journaling exercise as well as food. I'm getting my journal out today! I'm challenging you all to keeping a log of food and exercise this week.

Here I am! I always encourage my clients to try new things, so today I am breaking out of my usual routine and flexing some new muscle. I am certain that there will be moments when I'd like to stop; I know that at some point I will feel like I just can't complete the set-it's too heavy, too hard, too long. I also know that with perseverance, confidence, and a little help from my friends, this goal will be reached. Welcome to my new venture!
