21 Days huh?

So I think my inconsistent blogging, my inconsistent exercise, and my inconsistent weight loss would indicate I have some sort of commitment issue, and the saying is that it takes 21 days to form a habit, I am on a 21-day quest. For the next 21-days I will exercise every day, blog every day, and track… Continue reading 21 Days huh?
