I've read that it takes about 21 days to make a new habit. So I'm using the time off work with the kids to tackle a few areas and make some new, healthier habits.
I'm going to up my water intake by starting the morning with a glass of water and by keeping a bottle of water by the bed for sipping on. (Has to be a bottle or the cat will help himself to my water!)
I've joined the local fitness place. It's not a gym, but it does host lots of fitness classes and I've taken advantage of their half price offer for the first month.
And I've got a food diary to start being more mindful of what I'm putting in my gob. I have good food habits when it comes to work lunches, but I won't have any of those til Sept. I need to make good habits when eating at home too. Like portion control and not going back for seconds. Like including fruit and veg more. And not finishing every meal I eat with a sweet something afterwards.
