Don't Take Your Health For Granted

So many things the last few days have reminded me why I started this challenge. The anticipation of the lab tests - and now the loss of my aunt. Carolann taught us all so many things, especially these last years. Patience, not to blame God or anyone else for the things you can't control, and how to value you health while you still have it!!

I don't want to ever look back and regret that I wasn't able to do something about my health now. I have as much control over the state of my health now as I ever will. To not do something about this now can impact not just me but so many other people I have in my life and even those whose path I haven't even crossed yet.

I am very proud of the small things I have accomplished this week to start my way to my goals. I took lunch every day this week. I've only had 2 sodas since Monday each day compared to 4 or more. I'm drinking more water and Kool Aid as an option and Monty & I have had several rather healthy meals the last few days. We're also going to play volleyball tonight!

I am also looking to March 20 and the US Bank Climb for the American Lung Association.

Each little step gets me to my goal - A Healthier Me in 2010 and beyond.
Keep up your hard work - each little step is a new victory!!
