Ok! I started my journey just last week on Jan. 9! I promised myself that every Monday I would post about my previous week no matter how good or bad so here it goes.

First, I just want to apologize to those who have sent me messages and those who have posted to my blog or on my page! I have not responded to anyone I don't think! I was snowed in the first part of the week with no internet and when it was finally gone and I had to go back to work that is pretty much where I stayed trying to catch up! I hope that I get used to this all soon and am able to keep up with everyone on here! SORRY :(

So as for my first week! I good have done better! I made a few small goals to start me off for the rest of this month and managed to stick with ugh one of the four! Wow that is hard to type! Anyways I have not had a coke all week and have had mostly water with a few glasses of tea over the weekend! I wish I would have taken the time to track my water so I would know where I stood in that area since that is all I have been drinking! Anyway, there were some times when I had the option of have a dr. pepper and had to say water quickly to avoid it but I did so that I am proud of!!

I had also set a goal to give myself a 5 min pep talk everyday and all I can say is this did not happen! No excuses I just simply did not do it! Although, I am making a small change to this goal for the rest of the month! I simply want to give myself some sort of pep talk or read something inspirational for my journey each day! I am going to work very hard for the rest of this week to do this each and everyday!

And as for that 10min of cardio! Well........! I again have no excuses just didn't do it! I guess I got hung up in the snowdays and just fell back into my lazy self stuck in the house!!! I did do alot of cleaning so I guess that can count for something! I am going to stick with this one from now on though! I can do this everyday for the rest of this month! It is just 10minutes!!!

I think that covers everything so as you can see Week 1 was a rocky start but I am still in this and am trying to get back up and do what I need to do!! I have tried slipping into that I feel sorry for myself place because of my lack of work last week so I am working to stay motivated and be accountable to myself and SP!!!

So as for this week! Sunday was not a great day either although still no soda and I cleaned for about 6 hours yesterday so I think I can count that as 10 minutes of activity! Today I have not kept track of my water but I still have not had any soda! I am fixing to get up and get that 10minutes of cardio in and then look for my daily inspiration!!!

I vow that tomorrow I will keep track of my water and stick with these small goals for the rest of the week! I know I can and I will!!! Looking forward to next weeks blog!!!

Hope everyone has a great week!! Won't be on much this week! I start back to school tomorrow so I have to get into the groove of that !!! Hope to be more regular in the coming weeks!!
