There was a woman. With teen children. And baby chubble (on her, not on any baby). And one grey eyebrow hair. And entirely too much time on her hands. So she started a blog about trying to get back into a healthy lifestyle with as little stress as possible.
Welcome to 100 easy changes--the blog that says "Hey! You don't have to run a marathon! (hush C!*). You don't have to go right now and buy all natural fermented miscellaneous stuff (hush, K!*)! You don't even have to spontaneously decide that you are going to run a 5 k just to see if you can, like 2 hours before the race (yeah B, I am talking about YOU! *)! You do not have to raise your own chickens/ducks/turkeys/bees/rabbits (yep, that is you J*). All you have to do is make one easy change this hour. That's it. Nothing else. Just one, small, easy change.".
Easy enough right? I figure that instead of trying to TOTALLY change my life today with instant immersion into Runners World and Natural Mama, and wait for an EXCRUCIATING 6 weeks hoping all that becomes a habit that sucks less, I will just start with one hour and one change. This hour. And make one change that is better for me in some way.
(*BTW, do you SEE the peer pressure I have to deal with here? How can one person have such...DANG HEALTHY beautiful friends is beyond me. It bugs.** I need a few friends who think that poptarts count as a fruit (there is a picture of fruit on the box), who think cake mix soup is haute cuisine, and who have ever told their kids "No fruit until you finish that donut!". Applications within...)
(**I am kidding girls! You make me who I am and I would not trade any of you. :D ).
