Welcome my friends. I’m tweaking my weekly journey with my healthier living. It’s a step in the right direction for sure. I hope you come along for the ride. Instead of day-to-day comments, I’m going to post something from my personal journal to share. Hope you enjoy. Remember all of us go down this path and we are all in it together ❤
Week of 02/18-02/24/2018 – Week 7
“Dear Journal – It seems like food choices are beginning to become easier in decision making. That’s a great and awesome thing. If you would have told me this time last year I would be choosing water over a soda, I would have laughed at you. I was so addicted to fully leaded soda! It’s such a relief to break myself of that addiction. I don’t have to worry about diet soda… I would much rather drink water anytime. And I think water is so much better for my skin as well. This was definitely a good week of eating. I need to pick up the exercise a bit more. I’ve been doing a combination of walking and exercise. There are seven exercises that I’m trying to incorporate into my routine everyday. It’s working for me and that is what matters. I think I’m going to rope the hub unit in doing those seven exercises with me every evening. It may make things go faster and it would certainly help to boost both of us for sure.”
This week walked: 8.27
TOTAL 2018 Miles: 61.57
TOTAL 2017 Miles: 541.06
❤ small goals turn into big accomplishments ❤

Keep up the good work. I, also have been trying to make healthier choices, and I’m walking more. So far, I’ve lost 20 pounds. I still have cravings – sugar is one of them. Take care, and good luck.

Good on you! If you’re going to drink soda, you might as well drink rat poison. ☠️ And diet sodas are even worse!

Nods had. That is so true! They don’t even taste good anymore so why even drink them!

I only like the fizzy part and if I’m going to go for empty calories, I’d prefer something with alcohol in it. 😅

Lowers head and laughs. I know you’re right but I’m going to try… maybe if I get a long stick and hang it in front of him that has a doughnut on it? LOL

Once you get use to drinking water it is hard to not drink it! It is a great change.

You are so right! I’m drinking more water than anything these days. Of course, there is the occasional glass of wine every so often… but that’s made of water, right? LOL
