My big challenge this month is to participate in Veganuary — eating only vegan food this month.

I've technically already lost 😅 because I helped to destroy an open thing of cheddar cheese that we had already gotten — it just seemed too wasteful (and delicious 😝) to throw it out, haha! But we're not buying any new animal products for the month.

Aside from Veganuary, I'm doing this 22 day ab workout (really mostly a mind-muscle connection kinda workout) along with alternating leg and arm days to get in better shape — a lot of it is compound moves and body-weight exercises like push-ups & pull-ups + squats & deadlifts. I have a ski trip at the end of the month, and while I'm not fooled into thinking I'm going to get ripped ahead of the trip, I just wanna get my mind & body communicating a bit better so that I feel as in control as possible as I'm barreling down the Colorado mountains with long slabs of wood attached to the bottom of each foot. 😅

Oh that is cool! And noo for the Cheddar, it's better to eat than to throw away, that's totally understandable! Great motivation for the muscles, good "luck"! (I think?)
