Freeeeeedom!
Almost. Since I'm on the 30 day plan and not the monthly plan, I actually don't get to have soda until Sunday. Which, by the way, I'm waking up and grabbing a Code Red Mt. Dew, I tell you what.
After that I'm probably going to keep soda drinking to a minimum still as it really just isn't that good for me. Running every day in January helped me drop 2 pounds. Running waaaaay less often in February (I got a bit burnt out and lazy, sue me) but cutting all those empty calories helped me lose another 4. While I do miss the sweet sweet taste of deliciousness it's not nearly as bad as the start of the month so I don't think it will be hard to keep it to a soda a week when out at a restaurant or something. Plus, coffee just has SO MUCH caffeine in it, it's fantastical.
As this is the first of March, today kicks off my third 30 day challenge, giving me a couple days of overlap. This month I'm going to be following the '1 Minute Rule'. In short, anything that I can do in a minute or less, I will do right then instead of putting it off to a later time.
Examples would be:
-Taking an empty coffee mug down from my desk instead of leaving it there for a day or two.
-Hanging up my coat when I get home instead of throwing it on my bed.
-Emptying the dishwasher when it's done so dirty dishes can be put straight into it.
-Sending out a response email to a co-worker instead of letting it sit in my inbox.
I kind of feel like in general this will be a tidiness quality of life month, but I'm interested to see how it impacts my life beyond that. I'm curious what sort of things I normally micro-procrastinate on that will come to light because of this. Plus I'm betting my room will stay a lot cleaner.
