We are approaching the completion of one month of healthier living. Four weeks of sensible choices. Thirty one days of eating with intent, walking with a purpose. How's that working out you ask? I would have to answer okay. Not great. Not wonderful. Not exciting. But okay.
Do I feel better? Yes. Definitely better.
Have I lost weight? Yes. Not a lot but the wardrobe has expanded as the waistline slowly shrinks.
Is it easy? No.
Do I get frustrated? Yes.
I have to keep reminding myself that this is a life style change. A marathon of living better not a three week sprint with a hot fudge sundae waiting at the finish line.
It is about intention. And choice.
As January draws to a close and February looms on the horizon with its twenty nine days of unique challenges, I choose to continue.
I choose to be intentional about the food I eat.
I choose to be healthier.
(Check back at the end of February to see if my resolve holds up under pressure.)

Tim - You don't know how many times that word is repeated in my head every day! Maybe if I'm intentional about repeating it I'll live it better.
Amy - Thanks for the support.
