The Excitement is in the Air
I am so excited to start working towards a better and healthier life. I know we discussed not waiting until "tomorrow" or "Monday" but I have had a pulled muscle stopping me from doing a whole lot. I have taken the week to review notes and write up an eating plan and an exercising plan. I feel good about the plans I have. Now I just need to work my plans. Starting tomorrow I am going to be doing the Biggest Loser 30-day Jump Start DVD. It starts with 10 minutes a day and increases 10 minutes each week. My biggest hurdle with eating better is my addiction (yes - addiction) to Dr Pepper. I have thought about how to get rid of that addiction. I could drop it all at once or I could slowly get rid of it. I have chosen the latter. I hope to be done with pop in 3-4 weeks. Thank you Gina for all your knowledge and support. You are truly and inspiration to me. ~Rebecca

Rebecca,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that you are trying to make improvements. I think you are doing great because you know what you need to change and you are setting goals for yourself. It may be helpful for you to journal those times where you feel you need a Dr. Pepper so you can figure out your triggers and replace them with other things. Keep up the good work. We are all here for you.

Another note on something I read, was to try and limit yourself to one can of soda a day instead of giving up on it completely. By cutting back, you can look forward to that pre-determined time where you know you get to drink the Dr. Pepper and actually sitting down and enjoying it so you remember drinking it. Just a thought. I also like to drink water with lemon juice and a package of stevia or sun crystals(mix of stevia and sugar). It makes water less boring and more enjoyable to drink, plus it only adds 5 calories at most. So drink up!
