Tying Up Lose Ends

That neglected lose end
Came apart at the seams
For you did not attend
To trouble's first signs

Example-  losing weight, learning, reading, writing, walking, exercising
I think all my New Years goals have involved habit change. Some goals were so fleeting I don't remember them.  I think they need to be written down and placed on high priority (on your mind a lot. )  There are so many tools available as well.
1. Brainstorm the goal- read about the subject
2. List why- vision it reached
3. How it is a wholesome goal
4. How it benefits those around you
5. Consider the twelve step pattern
6. Look for success stories
7. Plan for temptations
8. Pray
9. Keep a journal
10.  Baby steps
11. Set up accountability with a friend
12. Celebrate in your goal and in each milestone

Next: How many weeks does it take to kill off a sweet tooth? I am eating chocolate like crazy!  It is in the house.

January 3- I have been drinking some herbal tea and I don't crave sweets.  I think it is because I am drinking more. Now I am still eating too much snacky foods. popcorn and crackers.  I think it is the salt.  I guess I will try homemade popcorn and Mrs. Dash.
Last night I did belly squeezes.  I am not toned enough for crunches and my neck hurts too much as well. I noticed that it is uncomfortable to do the squeezes.  My poor intestines are not happy with me eating so much.
