Ready to Start a New Week!

Great meeting tonight. I lost three pounds, which is great - but gained a lot of wonderful tips and had some great connections with people.

Here are the goals for the week:

• Keep watching portions! Fist size portions, and smart choices.
• WATER, WATER, WATER! It was suggested that we start our day with 16 oz. first thing each morning. That is a simple and important thing to do starting tomorrow.
• Eat less, exercise more. A calorie is a calorie!
• Research GMO (Genetically Modified Food). I've already found a list of GMO-free brands, and will have lots more resources and information about this.
• Do what you can to replace soda, juices and sugary teas with water. Dress up your water with cucumber, mint, ginger, oranges, lemons, limes, etc. Small steps - if you drink a lot of soda now, try to replace every other one with a glass of water.
• We decided last week to stop all soda in our house, and also avoid getting soda if we go out to eat.
• Keep those healthy foods visible for the whole family!

Finally, bring your problems to God. If you eat something you shouldn't, bring it to God and He will help. Don't get down on yourself!

Have a blessed week!
