Day 5 begins on my WFPBNOSOS lifestyle. Yes, you read that correctly! Whole Food, Plant Based, No Oil, Salt Or Sugar! So what does that leave? Tasty plant-based goodness! I'm going to try keeping this blog up on my progress to lose weight, get healthy, and stay OUT of the cancer mill again. God has been sooo good and given me a second chance at life not just once, but at least twice, and I'm still overweight and unhealthy. There's a reason He has left me here. I still have a job to do. I don't know what it is, but I want to at least FEEL good while I'm trying to do that job! Or maybe THIS IS my job! I mean, the original plant-based diet was right out of Genesis in the bible, right?
So, in the spirit of the new year, I'm going to include my new day resolution list and start over on that! Here it is:
_______________________________________________________________________________
New Day Resolutions
In the spirit of the new year, I am resolving not once, but 365 times,
to begin again. Every day I will begin with my "New Day Resolution" and
have 1 or 2 things I will resolve to do that day. If I fail once, I
haven't blown the whole year. I can start again tomorrow! It is one more
way that I'm going to be gentler with myself and my {SLOW} weight loss.
I will weigh in on Monday, December 27 to see what my new "beginning"
weight is, every day I will choose 2 things from this list that I will
complete that day. This list will be added to throughout the year to
create more challenging things for me, but for now, so that I will not
fail, I will start with these:
Drink 8 glasses of water.
Eat 4 fruits/veggies
Replace a meal with a salad.
Replace a meal with a smoothie.
Walk on the treadmill 15 minutes.
Work out on the home gym.
Make 4 extra trips up and down the stairs.
Take my vitamins.
Use my dumbbells for upper body strength.
Drink green tea.
OK,
so I do some of these every day anyway. This is not meant to be a
challenge every single day, it is meant to keep me feeling successful
and motivated. As I need new challenges (that IS the goal!) I will add
them...but only so that I remain successful! Failure is NOT an option!
Happy New Year!
