Morning all :)
It is still a bit chilly here in Central Texas :( But alot warmed then other places in the world so I guess that is a good thing :)
Wednesday found me being lazy, cozy and warm cuddled in the house and no exercise :(
But Thursday found me being cozy and warm but getting off my bum and movin a bit :)
Did 30 minutes on the treadmill yesterday for a total of 1.40 mile walking between 2.5 to 3.0 mile/hr.
My goal is to walk 3.0 to 3.5 mile a hour for a total of 1 hour a day. I will get to that goal by extending my time as I go ...... nothing big just extending it 5 minute increments as the weeks and months go by (with a minimum of 30 minutes to start with) The exercise part of being/livin healthy is something I have to work on a bit at a time. Because if I try to do it all at once then after a week or two I throw in the towel and say forget it ...... Do you ever have that problem?? An all or nothing attitude??
Eating and water have been good :)
Work is good :) I have this weekend off ..... Sunday will be sitting in front of the tv rootin on the Steelers to win the superbowl :)) GO STEELERS :))
Have a great day and just Keep on Keepin on :))

Hey there Blogland
Hope this finds everyone doing fabulous !!!!!!!!!!
We are having freezing rain here in Central Texas (Yukky)
first time we have had real bad icy roads in the six years I have lived here
It has snowed 3 times since I have been here (well if you want to call it snow it was gone with in a few hours LOL)
Today has been a good water day 6 16.9oz bottles of water :)
Eating well lacking a bit on veggies but still pretty good :)
Exercise ROCKS ........ 30 minutes of treadin it 1.33 miles at a leisurely walk pace (but did work up a sweat) which is good and what I am working towards :)
Work was good tonight and I made it home slow (35 to 40mph)
Have a great day and Rock On :)

Hey there Blogland!!!!
I think today went a bit better in the food department but still room for improvement
Breakfast was 2 nutrigrain bars at 6 am
Lunch was 2 packs instant cream of wheat with one banana
Diner was one chicken enchilada and a small salad (lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives) with just a hint of dressing . Hubby and son come to my work and had diner with me :) How cool that was I LOVED it (even if I only get a 1/2 hour lunch time)
Water was 6 16.9oz bottles
Exercise was alot of walking in the hospital tonight (we are packed for the 3rd straight day....have patients in ER overflow) Packed house (and we have 250 rooms put 10 ER overflow rooms that are Packed full)
I have the weekend off so will be taking in some football on Sunday. I am a BIG time Steelers fan and cant wait to HOPEFULLY see them in the superbowl on the 1st of Feburary.

Hey there BlogWorld
Another great week or striving to live a healthier stronger life :)
I got the chuggin water down pat... getting in atleast 6 16.9oz bottles of the clear cool stuff everyday. Eating is getting better and better..... I will start journaling all that I eat again soon :)
Now exercise that is another story. I have yet to do any "real" exercise..... just all the walking I do at work ..... but I need to get on with the real exercise up and beyond what I do at work.
My hubby is doing awesome on the exercise though ........he has walked a mile every single day on the treadmill since Dec 26th I am so very very proud of him :)
I do believe though some if not all of the 6 lbs I gained last month is off now. I go back to the doctor on Janurary 22nd so we shall see then :)
Have a great day and keep on keepin on

Raising my bottle to a great day :)
This is my weekend off (thank goodness) and I have to say I am VERY happy the holidays are OVER !!!!!!! Don't get me wrong my favorite holiday is Christmas but this year I am just glad it is over and we have our house back to normal WOOHOOO :)
It has been very nice weather here the past two weeks (talking in the 70's) tomorrow our high is suppose to be 49 just a bit chilly and they are forecasting rain. Boy can I feel the rain too.... my fingers are swelling up a bit (they usually do this when it is fixing to rain)
Today's food has been pretty good...
I had a turkey sausage on one slice of whole wheat bread for breakfast brunch type meal
Lunch 3pm was a deli chicken (sliced) sandwich 1/2 cup 1percent low fat cottage cheese and 15 pretzels
Diner was 2 homemade spinach enchiladas (thanks to my hubby)
on my 6 16.90z bottle of water
Hate to admit it but exercise is still NONE existence
My hubby has been doing a mile (one episode of Mash on DVD) for 8 or 9 days straight now.... I am soooooooo proud of him ..... Hopefully I will join him in the exercising :)
Raising my bottle to a better tomorrow :)

Just something to share
I got this from someone I work with and thought it was "true, real and worth passing on"
25 Tips For A Better Life !!
1) Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.
2) Sit in silence for at least 10 minurtes each day. Buy a lock if you have to.
3) When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, " My purpose is to ____ today."
4) Eat more foods that grow on plants, and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
5) Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds and walnuts.
6) Try to make at least three people smile each day.
7) Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.
8) Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner lik a college kid with a maxed out charge card.
9) Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
10) Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
11) Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
12) You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
13) Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present.
14) Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
15) No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
16) Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"
17) Forgive everyone for everything.
18) What other people think of you is none of your business.
19) GOD can heal everything in His plan. We just need to trust His bigger picture.
20) However good or bad a situation may seem God is in control.
21) Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch !!
22) Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
23) Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements:
"I am thankfull for _____ ."
"Today I accomplished _____."
24) Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.
25) Please share this with everyone you care about. Life is what you Make it :)
