Celebrating the Victories

Almost a month later... sheesh! Okay, I'll have to work on that once a week posting thing. ;) I'm up to a MINIMUM of 72 ounces of water a day. Not quite 3 liters, but still a huge improvement over nothing but coffee and diet coke (I still have my coffee, but have been without soda for almost 3 weeks now. Yay me! DH and I have been following (fairly closely, but not religiously) the 17 Day Diet plan for the past few weeks and I am down 13 pounds! YAY ME!!! Just now, I added a reminder to my phone to do my 15 minute pickup today. I'll keep that going to help me remember every day. Exercise... still lacking a bit. I have started taking the stairs at work. A couple of times every day I walk from the 4th floor to the basement and back. Doesn't seem like much, but it is enough to make me huff and puff and any more than that and my knee gets pretty sore. It's an improvement, and that's worth celebrating. :) Yay me! All in all, not too shabby. I feel pretty great, and I'm just going to keep feeling better every day. YAY ME!
