Keep On Trying

Attempting once again to lose some poundage I am cutting back and adding more.

Cutting back on the carbs and adding lots of veggies. And not the starchy ones either.

Water is also something I am trying to get more of. Diet Pepsi is still a favorite but I need to slow it down with the sodapop and get some of good ole H2O and I actually enjoy it when it’s nice and cold.

So does this mean a new Ninja? No not yet. It is going to take some time for these habits to actually become habits. At least that is the goal.

And this on the eve of my 6th anniversary of quitting smoking.

The time to create some new healthy habits is now. It may be months before I will say I am a changed ninja but for now I am just gonna keep on trying.

You are awesome!!!! Those good habits are not easy to make happen (probably because diet soda is so yummy and vegetables sometimes aren't), but I believe if you were able to quit smoking you can do ANYTHING!!!! I'm so proud of you, my friend! LYLB (which has no carbs, yay!!)

Dude, you can totally rock this. Slow and steady change.

Rock the feel, bro. Rock the feel. :-)

Congratulations on making the commitment. I wish you the strength and confidence to see it through. You can most definitely do this.

Way to go, George! You're going to do great and rock those new habits. I need to do the same myself, actually, when it comes to sidestepping Diet Coke for water and just getting back out and exercising each day - something as simple as walking the dog. Here's to small steps that become habits!
