My Healthy Choice Today!
28
Wed, 07-27-2005 - 2:26pm

The Challenge-
Each day reflect on what decisions you made, and post the one you're happiest about. For example: instead of a soda at lunch you guzzled a big glass of water!

Focussing on positive decisions will help with confidence and motivation.


Good luck and let's see those healthy choices-
(Thanks Kiervin for the idea!)


ps. keep this thread going by adding your daily choices each day

I'm going to put down the things where I could have made a bad choice but instead made a good one. Is that the right idea??


Yesterday at lunch:



  • Salad instead of fries

  • Water instead of shake

These were huge for me. I was at a restaurant and you should have seen the wonderful looking shakes in those old fashioned shake glasses with whip cream on top.

Yea that's the idea Gretchen, but whatever way people want to view this challenge as is fine!


Mine this week have been-




    • Monday: Half portion of that pasta lunch instead of a whole one

    • Tuesday: Salad for lunch instead of something fried

    • Wednesday: No soda-- only water! (I have to catch up with your water drinkers!!!)

Monday - Not buying any snacks at work and bringing healthy snacks.


Tuesday - I roller bladed into work even though it looked like rain (and I made it too - it didn't start raining until I was in my car!!)


Wednesday - I went swimming, even though Matt hadn't brought his clothes to go to the gym - I let him just sit there until I was done!

Went out for breakfast this morning, and although the chocolate chip pancakes sounded yummy I chose to order the coconut french toast instead.
