My Weight Loss Group
has embarked on a
Healthy Habits Challenge
So far, I’ve completed a few of the options
so I’m hoping that after eight weeks of participation,
some of these habits
will become part of my regular routine.
Drinking water and getting my steps
are already things I try hard to focus on
doing every day but other objectives
on the challenge may prove to be just that
… more of a challenge.
I know if we’re not challenged,
we can’t expect to be changed
so I’m heading into this eight week project
hopeful for a positive outcome.
I know I need to be more mindful
of what is contained in packaged
or canned food that I buy.
I need to be more diligent in reading labels
and be more aware of the additives
and preservatives in food products.
Homemade Onion Soup
in the freezer.
How nice it would be to reach into the freezer
after a busy day and pull out a ‘ready meal’
that I’ve prepared myself and know exactly
what ingredients went into making it.
I’m retired so there really isn’t any reason
why I can’t take the time
to cook all my meals from scratch.
I need to challenge myself to do that.
This an element of the reset I have as my goal
for this year will probably be a bit of a challenge
but one that will give me a worthwhile, healthy result.
I’m trying to stay mindful of my word for 2025
And to find ways to add or restore ‘balance’
to all areas of my life.
