Meal 1

Tonight I took on the task of my first fresh meal. I took on the challenge of Maniladas with White Cheese and Roasted Tomatillo Sauce.

This is a very labor intensive meal. The one short cut you can have is buying a cooked chicken. It was awesome because I finally got to try one from work. Then you rip the chicken apart and make the stuffing for the manicotti. Then you roast the tomatillos and onions. After roasting you blend them to make a sauce. I also made my first cheese sauce. It was awesome. Im doing good.

Monday!

Its Monday. Yeah Monday right? Today has had a good start. I am eating a healthy breakfast of Oatmeal. I love my oatmeal. Then I will have some cheese when I get to work because I know the oatmeal won't last four hours!

Two other things that I am doing to get healthy... I am starting today with stretching each morning. This morning it was a quick and simple stretch with my legs and arms. Just enough to feel it.

The other thing is my skin and teeth. I have never really taken care of my skin because I have not had to. I am trying the skin care line from Jafra. One of my friends is selling it so I thought I would give it a try. I can say I love it because it make my face feel so soft. I am also brushing my teeth at night which I really haven't done on a regular basis.

Are these important to my health? I think so but more in the head than physically.

Hopefully my Nike+ comes soon so I can start walking/running!
