I'll start!


1. Drink at least 64 oz of water a day I am REALLY bad at this, and I shouldn't be.

Well I guess I have 3 goals, but only 2 of them I want to reach & the 3rd tags along 'cos it's good for me...


Goal 1 = eating breakfast on a regular basis
Goal 2 = meal planning to get eating healthy down to a habit rather than a hardship
Goal 3 = drinking water


It won't take much for you to realise which one is the tag along goal - yucky stuff that!
Working on the breakfast & water goals 'cos they coincide with gym approx 5 mornings a week...
The meal planning will happen once gym is more of an auto-pilot thing...

Thanks for getting us started Rebecca,
Wow those are tough ones I think ..
Except the water maybe .. drink til you float.
I believe it's good for you to while BF as well if I recall ?
Maybe when DD is napping you can *divide* it ..
Some fun & some work
You will get back into the exercising ..slowly , little at a time.
Great you're taking Dd out in her stroller, perfect for you both ..
Hang in there ..
You made a huge start so be proud of what you have done already :)

We're all works in progress Gail,
Thought it was time to revisit ourselves looking at new habits to do ..
Not necessarily new but ones we want to do .. kwim ?
That's great Aileen's challenge is already helping with one of your habits.
Makes it a bit easier for you then hopefully ..
Ok now here we go off to a grand Monday :)

Never too much Aileen,
Always better to have too many than too few
Great ones for you to work on too :)

1) drink more water..or at least more Crystal Light


2) keep up the exercising


3) read more


It's always a work in progress. I did conquer the healthy eating as I never buy anything but healthy foods except on occasion..not often at all..when we'll buy one something or other that is bad, like a donut or cookies or ice cream.


Now to conquer the other's..won't be as easy. I still love walking, always have, but still have to push myself out the door.


I have to remind myself to drink more as I don't get thirsty very often.


To read more, I'd have to spend less time online..not easy.

Great habits to build on Donna,
Not being on the computer is definitely NOT easy ::blush::
However it can be done
Maybe with the warmer weather you'll find it easier to drink more water/Crystal Light.
As for the walking .. you will .. watch & see.
Like you say we are a work in progress & get a frest start everyday :)
