Pause and Go

I feel like I have fallen into the world of failure again, but I haven't!

I have just been B L A N K... ever have that happen to you?



I recently just started Meal Planning and I am enjoying it. Of course cooking every night is just something I have to get use to, but I'm using better ingredients, controlling the sodium in our diets and pushing more fruits and vegetables daily. It's worth it!

Last week I made breakfast 3 out of 5 days and I could tell the difference. The days I didn't eat breakfast I felt so tired and just couldn't get my every day groove going!

On a different note I have quit drinking the soda!


It wasn't as difficult as I was expecting... I Facebook my last drink of Dr. Pepper on March 16, 2013. 6 weeks since that last delicious drink! I really don't miss it, so much as the carbonation!

My next move is to take away the morning coffee. I dread this one. For some strange reason, during the week I have trouble sleeping and in the morning I drink the laced coffee with French vanilla. It's first used to wake me up and next to keep me moving until lunch time. I know terrible! I have implemented a water reminder app on my phone. It's coming in handy this past week. I don't know if I can rid myself of coffee! It's another big step, but necessary!

Summarizing, I have taken baby steps and I actually feel better about myself this time around!

Baby Steps

Baby steps...

One little step at a time. I feel like I'm at the bottom of the stairs and all I want to do is climb 2 or 3 at a time just to get there faster.

Cutting corners any way I can think of; I've always seem to do that. Get to my destination as quick as possible, but then when I glance back and realized I have focused too much on my destination that I forgot to enjoy my surroundings. Why?

I have stopped drinking soda. I'm very proud of this! I have had one temptation, but like a motivated health nut I have rejected as soon as it entered my head!

Baby steps!
