21 days to get back in the habit of healthy living

Start date = Tuesday, November 8th
End date = Tuesday, November 29th

Ok, so I intend on using this as a "jumping off" point for my fitness and do not intend on quitting after 21 days, but rather continuing. My point of doing this in a 21 day time period is to start out with small goals, build habits, and then go from there.

Exercise Plan (weekly) - subject to change based on weather

Sunday - Run (or swim)
Monday - Run or walk in neighborhood and abs
Tuesday - 60-90 minutes cardio and strength training with weights
Wednesday - 1 hour yoga class plus 30 or 45 minutes of cardio of my choice and abs
Thursday - 60-90 minutes cardio and strength training with weights
Friday - 60-90 minutes cardio and abs
Saturday - Run (or swim) and strength training with weights

Goals
- Limit calories to 1500 per day (utilize myfitnesspal to track food and exercise)
- Find more healthy swaps and healthy recipes
- Drink 64oz water EVERY day
- No soda
- 1 cup of coffee per day (either at home or from shop)
- Limit snacks (mainly salty ones)
- Lights out by 11pm and up by 8am

**Weekly weigh-ins will occur on Wednesdays BEFORE yoga**
