I don't know about you, but I am ready for another week! Last week, I did really well in some aspects, and others; not so much. I drank a LOT of water last week and it made me feel really good. I did a good amount of strength training, and I followed some of my dinner plans for the week.
In case you're new to my blog (or just in case you have forgotten) I've got a few goals for the month of January. So far, I am doing really great at reaching them!
Monthly Challenge for January
- Take vitamins daily
- Log into Healthy Habits e-course daily (http://www.myknowledgegenie.com/HealthyHabits2014)
- Make meal and exercise plans weekly
- Weigh-in weekly with photos for accountability
Vitamins:
I'm currently taking a Prenatal Vitamin and Folic Acid (to prepare my body for the future), Vitamin D (to help keep my MS under control) and Vitamin C (to keep myself from getting sick).
Healthy Habits e-course:
I have really been enjoying the Healthy Habits e-course. Most of the material is taking be "back to the basics", but I'm thinking this is exactly what I needed! So far, the course has gotten me to focused more on water, and how much I am actually suppose to be drinking. I have been drinking nearly double the amount of water that I have ever drank daily, before. The results (aka the way I feel) have been incredible!
Here are a few more things I've retained from the course:
"While junk food may be 4 times cheaper than vegetables, there's 20 times less nutrition." - Michael Greger, MD
"Improve {yourself} by just 1% a day, and in 70 days, you're twice as good." - Alan Weiss
Perfection isn't the goal, progress is!
