Pretty Ponies All in a Row

Better Late Than Never!

It's been a while but here I am!

As with any shiny new year I made goals. I no longer do resolutions. The word just triggers the reaction to break it.

Well this year, instead of going in all gung ho, I've done nothing. I've just been fuzzy headed and just lackluster.

On Monday that cleared up some and I got to work on me. One thing I resolved to do was to work on my health and just be, well, healthier.

I didn't resolve to lose weight or exercise. I made a goal to get healthier. Move a little more. Not as many trips through the fast food window. Eat cleaner, less processed food.Cook at home more Can I get an amen on getting an air fryer? Make sure I take my meds and supplements every day.

Doable, right? Right.

I've made some small steps toward that goal. I love Pinterest and I have a Healthy Me board with healthy foods, quotes, a few easy exercises, anything that will lead me to become a healthier version of me. These little steps may lead to losing some weight. Good for me! I may get a little stronger and have more energy. Yay! I may even be able to get off some of my meds. Super duper yeah!

I'm ordering an water infusion water bottle and some "on the go" snack/lunch boxes. Easy peasy, right? I can bring those to work. I won't eat junk because I'm filling up with fruits, veggies, lean meats, nuts, etc. I like that stuff. I just get lazy and eat junk. Then I crave junk. The most difficult thing will be cutting down on Diet Dr. Pepper. I was given a single serve coffee maker for Christmas. While I need lots of creamer and sweetener in my coffee, there are lots of teas on the market. I need my one jolt of caffeine in the morning. My cardiologist wants me to cut it out completely but I have to have one in the morning. Then I can switch to water/infused water or caffeine free tea.

Doable. All doable.

I have other goals but this is my focus right now.

Go me!
