I Got Some Blogging To Do...

First things first...there will probably be a few catch up posts today...so I hope you all enjoy.

Now that we have that out of the way...I have to say...THANK YOU!!!

For what, you may ask...well.  You all (yes, you) have helped me to stay accountable.  When I first posted the picture of my short, brittle nails on my blog, I was hoping that it help me to stick to my guns and really concentrate on growing them out, and it did!!!  I have strong, healthy nails again!!!  Sure, this may be small potatoes for some of you...but it's not to me!!  I've been enjoying having fingernails again.  : )


Can't remember what my nails looked like when I started all of this?  Check out my original post here.

HUGE improvement, if you ask me...

So...the next thing you are all going to help me conquer:


Soda.  Yep.  I'm addicted.  BAD.  Like, it's all I drink in a day, and I drink a lot.  No water, no juice, no milk, no tea, no nothing...It's a very bad example that I'm setting for my kids.  So....I've decided to quit.  Cold Turkey - well, sort of.  I've been waiting for just the right day for it to be the first day without soda and I decided yesterday that today would be the day.  I kept getting hints from The Big Guy and I'm alllllll about listening to His hints.  I can take a hint!!

So, today is the day folks.  I poured and drank my last soda last night.

Sweet Nectar

I know this is something I can do...about 10 years or so ago, when I first met Gordon I quit drinking soda for a while, too. It was the skinniest I 've ever been.  Now, granted I've had two kids since then, but I am really thinking that without all of the extra calories and sugar that I've been pouring down my throat everyday, I'm bound to see an improvement.

I'll keep you posted on my progress...

  1. Your nails looks great! Good luck with the soda. I probably drink too much, too. And when I'm not drinking soda is mostly lemonade, which I'm sure isn't much better. You picked a good day to stop...isn't this the first day of lent? I'm not catholic, so I'm not sure...but lots of other people are giving up stuff today. :)

  2. Thanks, Adrien!!

    It is the first day of Lent. I'm not Catholic, either...but as a recovering Catholic...I know that. :-)

    ...and anything is better than soda!!!
