Another Verdict!

So drinking more water starting in February was.... so-so. I did drink more water, but still not what I should be drinking.

Now to March: Pedometer time. I starting using my pedometer last week and averaged between 6,000 and 7,000 steps a day. The challenge is to walk 10,000 steps a day or 70,000 per week.

To be continued...

The Verdict!

I survived two weeks of no sugar. On the 15th day, I had a brownie, which wasn't as good as I was hoping it would be so perhaps the two-week detox worked.

On to February --> Drink more water.

January 28, 2010... Note to self: Keep looking for pedometers.

New Year's Resolutions

So instead of having one resolution that would have been put in place on January 1, 2010 that will probably last all of three-weeks, this year I decided to do monthly resolutions that will hopefully turn into lifestyle reality. Not sure what each month will be at this point, but so far so good.

For January, I decided to work out at least four times a week and eat less sugar (cookies, cake, brownies). A coworker, who is a fitness buff, suggested that I go through a two-week sugar detox. He had done this previously and it worked for him so why not. Today marks day 12, only two days to go.

For February, I'm going to drink more water. Currently, I don't drink nearly enough.

For March, I'm going to start taking at least 10,000 steps a day, but before that buy a pedometer.

April - December - to be determined.

Some of these will include more date nights, saving more, and taking vitamins.

January 16, 2010... Note to self: Research pedometers.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

So this year with Keith being able to come home, I decided to put up the tree, with the help of mom and dad, and decorate Bruno in the process.
