Goals

Ryan and I have gotten a little bit of an early start to our goals we have set for this new year.  
Since loosing my Grandma to cancer in July and then my mom being diagnosed with cancer a few months later, we decided that while we are in the prime age of our lives it is about time we change our lifestyle.
Not just "loose weight, eat healthy" but actually change the way we live.  We are trying to learn more about foods and what to look for on labels, as well as what work outs work the best.  Ryan has been learning a lot and teaching me and we are already starting to notice differences, the biggest difference being how much better we feel about ourselves.  
Along with this goal I have made a personal goal to learn how to cook (healthy meals) and to cook often for my husband.  
Did you know that just by maintaining normal weight you can expect to live an extra 11 years?!  Did you also know that an unhealthy lifestyle is the main cause of most cases of chronic diseases?!  That means it's not just bad genes, it is how you live your life!  Plain and simple, right!?


So needless to say we are pretty excited about this life long change we are making for ourselves and I am excited to become a better wife by being domestic! 
 Yay for goals and yay for new beginnings!!!
