Kickin' things off right!

It's the start of Fall semester and the start to  my new weight loss goal! I figured if I made my journey public it would be good motivation to not quit because A) you all are holding me accountable so I don't want to embarrass myself and B) If I know I have to post things, hopefully it will motivate me to do more.
 So here it goes! I have 4 months to lose 30 lbs. Now I know that may seem like a lot, but I figure if you aim high then you will achieve more than you hoped. I also know from my NOLS course that I can pretty much do anything I set my mind to and overcome any challenge that comes my way.
So here's what I will be sharing with y'all:
1) goals and progress
2) Work outs
3) Recipes
4) Challenges and obstacles
I hope it's interesting, and if not I don't really care because I'm doing this for me, not you ;)

I have started doing Bethenny Frankel's SkinnyGirl Daily cleanse and weight management supplements that you can learn more about here. So far it's making me feel pretty good, and I can't believe I'm not craving any bad foods (except chocolate a little, but that's always a given). I was going to hit the gym, but my roommate's dog had already torn up the trash and my tortilla chips, so I figured he needed a little exercise (and punishment) too. This is the route I ran, almost a mile, but I was pretty proud that I ran almost the entire way, and even threw in a few quick sprints. Running outside and with a dog is much different then running on a treadmill. For dinner I made chicken fajitas and washed it down with a Kombucha and a glass of the cleanse mix. I've been eating pretty well the past few days, so here's to keeping up the healthy eating and exercise, even with a Hurricane on the way!
