What I Ate Wednesday #212
So I’ve recently set a few goals for myself. Nothing major, I’m not giving up cheese or anything ludicrous like that, but I figured I could baby-step my way into a few healthy habits and be all the better for it.
First, I need to control my drinking. No, not the beer; that can stay. THE COFFEE! I’ve gotten in the habit of drinking it so freakishly fast first thing in the morning that by the afternoon I’m crashing and craving another fix. I’ve been limiting myself to one 12 oz mug a day and starting my day with warm lemon water before reaching for the java. So far so good! I also want to drink more water during the day and put a daily cup or two of tea back into rotation too. Holy cow that’s a lot of liquids!
Speaking of coffee, I take mine black then buttered. It’s life changing.
My other goal is to remember to take my doc-prescribed Vitamin D supplement daily. It’s a combo with calcium and magnesium and super essential to keep my levels in check. I placed the bottle right next to the beer so I would remember!
Gahhh I’m kidding! It’s by the coffee, duh.
Lastly, I need to step up my veggie game. I know I put those gems in everything but I still feel like I don’t quite get enough. I look back at certain WIAW posts and absolutely see room for improvement! I hate wasting food, so a good way for me to amp up my veggie consumption is to buy a boatload and then I’ll have no choice but to pac-man my way through the produce pile.
Remember how I stressed taking WIAW back to it’s roots… the above reflection is one of the reasons! I basically have a cheat sheet of my eating habits from the good (hooray veggies!) to the not so great (hello frozen pizza!) to the food jag-eriffic, so if my body feels off (or it feels great!) I can look back at my meals and see what could be contributing to this.
I’ve rambled way to much today, let’s get on with the eats!
