Happy Monday

Happy Monday! I woke up today feeling like poo today, as I have many mornings for years. I call it "the Yuck". Sometimes it lasts all day and other times it subsides after I'm up and I've started my day. This morning had a little bit of a different twist for some reason. Even though I felt yuck, I was optimistic. Usually when I wake up feeling sick, I tend to be pessimistic and very grouchy. Something is different...I can feel it. I woke up ready to take on the day and I wasn't grouchy. I'm taking baby steps. I think that is what's making the difference. I'm not jumping head first into a "diet" plan and forcing myself to be good and follow a plan. I'm taking it one day at a time; one moment at a time really. I'm bursting with excitement because I can feel a change happening already. I want this to work...I know this will work. I'm in such a different mindset this time. It has to work!

  1. Give up soda....the caffeine is part of why you feel bad in rhe morning. Your ability to fully rest is inhibited because the natural dopamine in your body is not being allowed to do its job because of all the caffeine stimulus. Plus soda decalcifies your bones. Find a different crutch like chewing gum or bringing chilled carrot sticks to work. I enjoy a healthy, happy Debbie in the morning.
