A few weeks back I challenged myself to drink more water. My goal was to only have non water beverages early in the morning (coffee) and during meals. Overall, I am very pleased with my progress on this one. I take my water bottle with me to work every day and normally I go through it and have to refill at some point. And it's working. I drink a lot more water than before. The only downside is I do tend to use the restroom a lot more, but oh well. At least I know it's in there LOL
I did not post my next daily challenge, but starting last Monday I decided that I was going to make a concerted effort to take more pride in my appearance. My typical work attire is long dress pants and some kind of button down shirt. I had always been keeping my shirt untucked because I thought it more comfortable. Plus, our that's how our executive director at the time was dressing, so why not? But I do not carry myself well when I dress like that. My posture is way too relaxed and slumped.
So, last Monday, I tucked in my shirt and opted for suspenders instead of a belt. People commented on how they liked the suspenders, which was nice. The next day I wore something dressier, with a belt this time, and got lots of comments on how I looked. When I did it again the next day, people asked me if I had a job interview...if that was why I was dressing up. It's not, but it was nice to make people think. And it's nice that people were noticing. And, like I said, I carry myself better. I stand up straighter. I keep my shoulders back in alignment and that also helps me to look a little thinner than I am.
All in all, I am happy with the changes I am making. Now, time to think of a few more to add to the mix.
That is all.
