Recovering from the Soda Debacle

Mamavation MondayThis has been a recovery week. I think the statement most made in this house has been from my husband: “I just can’t believe how bad it was and so quickly!”

Of course, he was talking about my face. That sounds harsh. I mean the result of my soda binge and the toll it took on my complexion. It was bad, people, really bad. And that was just after three days of non-stop soda drinking.

Yes, I learned the error of my ways. But I think the KEY to my error can be summed up in three statements:

  1. Soda, while tasty, really isn’t full of good-for-you ingredients.
  2. If you’re going to have soda, you should at least balance it out with a glass or three of water.
  3. If it’s that week, and you know you’re going to be susceptible to the Siren call of soda, don’t let yourself or your husband purchase it.

My accomplishments this week:

  • No soda
  • Took a walk even on the mornings my head was bursting
  • Maintained my weight
  • Did some of my extended 2 week challenge

Goals for this coming week:

  • Actually do the full 2 week challenge workout for each corresponding day
  • Lose a pound or two
  • Take a nap

What are your goals this week?
