This whole kidney stone/surgery thing has opened my eyes to a giant fact: I need to get serious about my long-term health. I can't blame anything in my lifestyle for this stone, but the medical on-goings have made me realize how many OTHER trials are ahead if I don't make some permanent changes.
I want to break bad habits and replace them with something better. I need to lose a lot of weight. I need to have a consistent exercise plan. I need to eat well all the time, not just occasionally.
I want to grow old but healthy. I want to watch my kids suffer at the hands of THEIR teenagers.
And here's where YOU come in!
Starting with this post, I'm going to ask for good suggestions. I want YOU to tell me which habit to break or add. I need these changes broken down into easy-to-incorporate actions that are measurable. IE - "four servings of fruit/vegetables a day" rather than "eat better".
I'll choose one suggestion and get to work.
Every 3-4 weeks I'll let you know how it went, then ask for another one. This way each good suggestion will become a new habit, and I'll just BUILD my way to better health.
Are in you? Ok, then, let's heal Mnmom!
