Ask:
Well I only had two sodas today. Well... more like 1 and 3/4 but *shrug*
And I walked for 30 minutes.
Maybe not much. But it's a start, so I'm happy.
Answer:
Good for you! The best way to quit drinking pop is to slowly ween yourself offf- mainly so you don't receive those dreaded caffine headaches. i quit drinking Mountain Dew in January and honestly I have never looked back- I have had an occasional sip of Dh's pop and honestly it tastes like thick icky syrup and not satisfying at all! Keep it up you can do it!
Answer:
Good for you! Like stevesgal said ween yourself off slowly. I am having a very hard time right now with getting myself off of soda. I quite for a week and then was back on it. We can work on it together if you want. Maybe a daily check in to see how we are doing? Let me know I can always use encouragment when struggling through things like this. Stay Strong!

Maybe not much?? You went from doing nothing, to doing something! That's a BIG deal in my book! Keep it up, set realistic goals, and if you fall off that wagon, get right back on!!!
Answer:
That is a great start. If you went out of the box full speed ahead, you would die down after a mere few weeks if not days. Going slowly and celebrating the small step and achievements will help you continue on!
Keep it up! And do be sure to check in with the motivated mommies on Fridays. It helps to keep you motivated and makes you accountable for what you did throughout the week!
Answer:
That might not seem like much but it will add up. I started last July trying to get weight off and right now I have lost 34 pounds. I have done so many different diets, lost the weight and then put all of that weight back on PLUS a few more pounds. I hope that this way I will develop a new way of eating, you know a new lifestyle. Keep up making those small changes and you will see a difference. Way to go!!!! And I would love to hear about Motivated Mommies - what is that???
