Today should be interesting
March 27, 2008 by Julie Beavers
I just got finished having my morning video chat with Eric, and we have decided that today is the day that we start our “get healthy” plan. He went to the doctor last week and found out that he needs to start watching his triglycerides. We decided that we would use this excuse to work toward getting more healthy. We are launching a new diet and workout program. The first thing that we are trying to shake is caffeine. This means no more of my long coveted doctor peppers. I am not sure how this will pan out, but he is giving up his first love….coffee. I will not cheat… but it is going to be hard. Eric has already given up smoking and has cut his alcohol intake dramatically… and today he told me that the booze had to go completely along with the coffee. We are also going to start walking again.
Wish us luck as we attempt to better our lives through self sacrifice (and maybe a little personal torture!!)
I will be praying for you. Anthony gave up a lot when he was having the cholesterol problems, but not caffeine, we just switched him to coke zero and me to diet doc or dew. The Sprite Zero has been high on my list lately though and it is really good with no caffeine. Be careful, I gave it up my first pregnancy and those head aches from the withdrawel’s suck!
