So, 30's are good for many reasons, and not so great for many more. The pros are my kids are pretty self-sufficient. I guess, I mean they won't die if I don't make them breakfast, because they'd probably get off their little tushes and make themselves a bowl of cereal, ya know? (well at least Lana, my youngest would) My husband and I are financially pretty stable, awesome reason #2, 30's rock. And, we will be empty nesters, when we are in our early 40's!!! Awesome reason #3. Anyhow, getting a little off tangent here, or maybe showing gratitude. Yes, the latter. ;) So, the evil cons of being in my early 30's : HEALTH! You will start to feel old! I feel soooo old lately. My bones ache when I wake up. Probably arthritis, which has affected several maternal, and paternal relatives. I'm wicked fatigued a lot. My skin sucks. I have always suffered from acne, and oily skin, but since moving to North Carolina, this white girl skin of mine, has developed an uneven skin tone, most noticeably on my face. Which is why I only go bare face while sleeping. When I wake up I practically rush to the bathroom, wash the oil, which has managed to accumulate a coating in only 8 hours!!!, and put a light coat of foundation, to hide my horrible skin, even if I plan on taking a shower soon. Pretty much to save my husband, and kids from the ugly monster that I really am. My teeth have turned a lovely tint of yellow. And, despite running my first marathon this previous November, and running pretty regularly, well when I can find someone babysit for and hour, I still am a tad over the weight I'd like to be. My shitty eating habits, which include eating whatever I damn well please, whenever I damn well please, have kinda caught up with me too. After the birth of my daughter in 2010, I was given A large dose of antibiotics, because I was strep B positive (which isn't anything crazy). But, the antibiotics destroyed my gut bacteria. If I eat too much sugar I still will get a white coating on my tongue, and yeast infections. My daughter and I passed thrush back and forth from her mouth to my breast whenever I breast fed. Fast forward 5 years On top of these lovely ailments I have suffered with depression, and anxiety, which I find running regularly really cures. It gets me totally high. So, the other day I took the plunge and bought Rodan & Fields Reverse regimen. It's been a week now, and my face is looking pretty damn amazing, if I do say to myself. But, it got me thinking...maybe I should totally revamp myself. 30's Don't have to be so shitty right? Here is my plan of action to revamp. It's pretty simple, really getting back to the basics. The things moms, and slackers tend to neglect as we get older.
1) Take Vitamins
-Multivitamins
-Pro-biotic
-Coconut Oil
-Tumeric
-Fish Oil
-Glucosamine & Chondroitin & MSM
-Yeast Cleanse
2)Brush & Floss x2
3)R&F Reverse regimin
4)Excersize at least 30 minutes, Daily, or more!
Lots of H2O
Healthful Eating! (give me a break! I have kid food in my house)
No sugar after 8pm! (There goes my evening bowl of ice cream)
And, I'm going to do this for 30 days. Which most agree is the time it takes to form a habit. Let's see what happens. :)
