Challenge Day 1

March 7th...This morning was the first day of my mental and physical challenge to be master of my weight and health. No matter the pressures of the day, my goal was to stay busy, stay positive, and stay the course. My challenge was drinking water. I do not crave water but since I am now watching what I drink and knowing soft drinks, crystal lite, herb tea do not count toward my water, I have had to force myself to drink water and stay hydrated throughout the day. This is going to be tough. After work, I went to Briauna and Brian's house for a birthday dinner for her dad. It was good healthy food, with salad and WATER to drink. B also showed me how to blog, so I could fulfill my other challenge and that is to journal. The next hardest thing to do is to read something that is uplifting or something that makes me feel good when I read. I don't even have time to read in the bathroom let alone in bed before I go to sleep. My challenges are not the physical ones so much as the mental ones to force me to make time for myself. This is going to be interesting.
