"Drink" for thought . . .

Hmmmmmm . . .

Been off soft drinks with sugar for 5 days. I've lost 4 pounds.

That's math I can understand!

I'm better than I deserve! ><>

I haven't had a soft drink with sugar in years. So if I want to lose weight, I have to give up something I love more. Probably ice cream.

But the sad truth is, I just don't care enough. I keep having this thought about all the people who make so much effort to be healthy and live as long as possible. Long after they attend my funeral, they'll be shuffling around the nursing home on their walkers, wondering why their kids don't visit - if they still remember they have kids. Meanwhile, I'll be in heaven with Jesus. Lucky them.

I "see" the doctor this Friday morning. Not looking forward to it. Too many things are wrong with my big ol' bod'.

Not being as healthy as I should / could / outta be is a problem.

In reality, I have no one to blame except myself. I am the problem.

The short term enjoyment of taste, texture, etc., is no longer a justification in and off itself to eat some of the many things I like.

I tried to give up pop. I lasted about 2 days. And then, today, I stopped at the store and my favorite diet vanilla pepsi was on special. A deal I could not pass up...it's a sign right? I am cutting back tho, its s start.

:o)

I don't feel dressed without having a pen, pencil and notebook with me!

I'm at the age where I pretty much know what I like to have with me in terms of every-day-carry.   I like 4"x6" sized notebook...
