2012- year of healthy living

[cardigan]

So basically, my fitness/health goals aren't to lose weight or anything. I've always been thin (genetically blessed with being tall with a fast metabolism) but I really need to get back into shape.
All through high school I was a dancer and well as playing soccer. I graduated a few years ago and since just have really lost track of exercising. So my goal for this year is to get into great shape, as well as embracing eating healthier so I'll just feel better all around.
So! This thread will be for tracking my daily food intake and exercise. Yaylet'sgo!
Starting with yesterday, January 1 2012:
Breakfast: bowl of Just Right cereal with 2% milk, coffee with a bit of 2%, 2 glasses of water
Snack: wildberry yogurt with about a cup of frozen blueberries, 2 glasses of water
Lunch: toasted sandwich of chicken and mozzarella cheese on whole grain bread, herbal tea
Dinner: chicken strips w/ sweet & sour sauce, rice, carrots and coleslaw, glass of water
And my downfall was munching on things all day...peanuts, cookies, hot chocolate, leftover christmas chocolate and chips! All stuff leftover from the holidays, should be gone soon.

Exercise: 25 mins on treadmill, alternating 5 mins of running with 4 of walking
