New Beginnings Wednesdays (Oct.27)

((For the main post about this new WEEKLY EVENT, click here)).

To remind you of the way this works, here’s how to play:

First — post your list of New Years’ Resolutions in a post at your blog (or in the comments here, if you don’t have a blog).

Second — every week, on Wednesday, write a new post about how you’re doing with each of your goals … you’ll have to list them, again, each week, as people won’t remember what you’re working towards, otherwise. Be brief in your updates, as there may be several blogs to visit! ((come give a quick update here at Should Be Reading, if you don’t have a blog)).

Third — after you’ve written your update, come back to Should Be Reading, and share your link so that we –the other New Beginnings participants– can stop by your blog and encourage you!

Important! … It would be absolutely great if you could visit at least ONE other participant’s blog  on Wednesdays and leave a comment on their post to share some encouragement for their efforts! Show your support! That’s what this event is all about — standing by each other to finally reach our goals!

My New Years’ Resolutions:
1. Move more. I plan to exercise for at least 15-30 minutes, 5 days per week. I’d like to work my way up to being able to jog, 3 days per week.
2. Eat less. I plan to follow my hunger cues to eat in moderation. No more mindless munching.
3. Shrink down. I’m aiming to lose about 45 lbs.
4. Read through the Bible in one year. I did this a couple of years ago, and found it really helped me to stay focused on what’s important. So, I’m trying it again.
5. Give up pop. I have been drinking way too much Coca-Cola, and it’s not helping my health any. So, I’m giving it –and all other sodas– up for good. They are just cans of chemicals, anyway, and I definitely need to stay away from the caffeine in them. So, no more pop.

I’ve done nothing regarding my goals, this past week, except read my Bible. Stressing over stuff, so I just haven’t been in the right frame of mind for anything else.

PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own NEW BEGINNINGS update, or share your progress in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks!
