? ? ? Today's Vow ? ? ?

Val asked me to start posting the morning "I vow..." posts again because we always found it a good motivator to start the day. A vow is a lot more serious than just "I'm going to try..." So... tooday I vow to: ? Eat fewer than 1000 calories ? Get in a minimum of 60 grams of protein ? Drink at least 80 ounces of water Feel free to join in with us and post your vow for the day! Accountability is a positive thing. DeeDee

Hey DeeDee...I'm up, but not for long. This is a great idea and I am happy to join in. Today I vow to... ~get my one hour walk in ~drink at least 100 oz of water ~get more packing done for the "big move" at the end of Aug. ~eat more veggies and fruit ~TAKE A NAP!!! Have a super day...Cap'n K-Man

I wish I could include a vow to take a nap today too! I see toddler's who struggle to take naps and think "you don't know how fortunate you are to have nap time included in your daily schedule!!" =) Good luck with your vows today! DeeDee

Morning DeeDee, Today, I vow to stay under 1000 calories - hopefully under 800 and to do the best I can. I also vow not to beat myself up if I'm less than perfect. I have come to the conclusion, the more I berate myself for my stumbles, the more I stumble. I don't feel it necessary to vow to get the protein or water because those are givens with me. However, I need to vow to stay away from starchy foods like crackers, bread, chips and to not eat peanut butter. I also vow to be prepared for the day - to have the foods I need available so I don't give into temptation if I get hungry. Have a great day. Patty
