WHAT: Get off to a healthy start in the mornings.

WHY: I don't do well if I don't eat breakfast, but eating a 400 calorie breakfast sandwich is NOT the way to go. I'll hit a roadblock in my weight loss if I keep up this bad habit.

HOW: Get up earlier to eat cereal. Bring fresh fruit or granola or yogurt to work. Anything that doesn't involve ( Read more... )

Been a busy couple of months. I've been way more social than I can usually manage, which has left me a bit frazzled, but mostly happy. I was recently able to enjoy one of the items which was on early iterations of my list that didn't stick around to the current one; it was wonderfully enjoyable, and I'm glad to have done it, even if I don't get ( Read more... )

So... it's been a while, huh? The past few weeks at work have been insane, which doesn't really excuse the week or two prior, but still... I've got some good news.

• 12. Done. No matter how I want to define this one, I'm considering it done. I've replaced my juice consumption with water. I now drink 64 ounces of water most days, at least. And I got ( Read more... )

Yeah, slacking. I know. At least with these posts. I've been pretty good about... well, some other things, anyway. Let's take a look!

• 12. I've been drinking nothing but water, really, with rare exception. And I'm trying to cut out the exceptions. I've got water bottles for both home and work. I'm working on modifying this goal so that it's more ( Read more... )

It's been just about six months. There are so many goals I haven't even touched upon yet, and that makes me a little sad, but I've made a lot of good changes already. Doing this list has made a noticeable difference in my life. It makes me happy.

• 12. I've been doing really well with this this week, but I have two concerns. First, I really think I ( Read more... )

• 13. This is not as easy as I was hoping it would be, quite likely because I'm failing on #20. Getting up early to eat a breakfast which I find awesome some days and tedious others is not easy. That said, I am managing this a couple times a week. It's a start.
• 21. Down a couple more pounds this week. I've been weighing myself on Sunday mornings for ( Read more... )

Yeah, I've been slacking on posting updates. Or posting at all. January's been a weird month. I've stumbled on a few things and done well with a few others. I think it balances out.

• 2. We ate at Liberty Union last night as guests for their soft open. I'm sure we'll be going back, and not just because we know the manager. The food was very good, ( Read more... )

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I stumbled last week on the update. Life's been weird. We have a new roommate (as of the weekend just before the last update), who is currently sleeping in our living room until she gets a job and we get the second bedroom fixed up for her. This makes life really strange. Routine's a little more difficult than usual. That said ( Read more... )
