Well, diligent as I was, I did not make it through the June challenge. I was high raw for most of the month, 100% for part of the month. It was the family reunion we had last weekend that kicked me in the butt. I know I had a choice as to whether to eat the cooked food. There is always choice. I made the choice to eat it, so now I am going to jump back on and make the choice to get back on the raw wagon for the month of july!

I started taking Tae Kwon Do last Wednesday. It is exhausting. I am not used to intense work outs, or work outs of any kind for that matter, because I have not had a regular work out routine for a few years. Yeah, years. So, now not only will I be learning something fun, I will be getting myself in shape as well. They make us do about 20 minutes of warm ups each class, which was the hardest part because we have to do sit ups, push ups, reverse push ups, leg presses and kicks across the room, BUT I am loving it! :)

    I heard a saying once. "The failure is not in the falling down, but in the staying down." Good for you for getting back up and moving forward! It's a lifelong journey!!

    Good for you, Magglepie! I, too, fell on my proverbial butt in June, and am back for the July challenge! I'm also learning something new after being fairly sedentary for a long time - belly dancing! It's gonna be a great month!
