? ? ? Friday Vows ? ? ?

Today I vow to: ? Eat fewer than 1200 calories ? Drink a minimum of 80 oz. of water ? Visit my surgeon and find out why my Zinc & Vit. A levels are low & how to fix that ? Get my hair highlighted (shhhh, only my hairdresser knows it's not natural!) I kept my vows yesterday and it was nothing more than sheer determination to be able to post "I kept my vows" that made me go to the gym after work! For any of you who are finding this accountability helpful let me assure you that posting this helps me tremendously and I thank y'all for joining in each day. I think of you all throughout the day, knowing you're striving to keep your vows and it makes me more determined to keep mine. And for that I thank you all most sincerely! What are you vowing to do today? Have a Fantastic Friday! DeeDee NOTE TO SELF: "You really only want what you are willing to pay for. If the price of attainment is too great for you to pay, you do not desire that particular thing or condition with intensity; hence you do not deserve it."

Dee Dee, Now you have to follow through With at least #'s 2 & 3. I want to know what makes your Vit levels low Too! And you can't go for tests without getting in all your water Or you won't be able to fill that special little cup And place it in the little special "cabinet" at the Drs.' office. And while getting you hair done (Shhhh) You won't have time to eat more calories! Have a great Friday! My Vow? Meet with all of the incoming students today To start the school year. My itinerary is blocked down to the 5 minute increment today! I Vow to "Make the Best of It!" Best Wishes- Dx

I did the whole round of testing a couple of weeks ago (all that well-woman stuff too). Everything looked really good except for the zinc and vitamin A. I try to eat a small spinach salad every day during the work week and I eat a lot of fish. I'm really curious as to how my zinc levels are low considering I'm taking my vitamins. I meet with my surgeon today and we'll go over my diet and bloodwork results. Fortunately I don't have to be fasting for today's appointment! Have fun with the new school year! We're scheduling to go to several colleges the first of October to interview their upcoming MBA grads. I had five summer interns this year who have returned to school to finish the last year in their MBA program. And most of them are going back to school with offers from us knowing they'll have a job as soon as they graduate in May. I remember when I was young enough to date the college grads who interned at a company where I worked. Then I remember when my daughter was at the age to date the college interns / new recruits. And now both of us are too old for the typical college student!! YIKES --- how'd I get this old this fast? Have a Hotty Toddy day! DeeDee

Hey Dee, Today I vow to increase my water intake. I have been poor with it lately. Thats it, keeping it simple, still fighting this cold. I like the "note to self"! Wendy
