To A Healthier New Me

I'm very proud of all that I accomplished today.  The list of activities was long; health things for work, cruise things, packing, cleaning my room.

While that list may not seem extensive, I often get side tracked and leave half of said list "to do tomorrow".  And we all know how that story goes; tomorrow the items never get accomplished either.

Anyway, upon taking a "Wellness Review" to see how healthy I am, the computer generated that I am 54 points out of 100.  Thank you machine that calculates my well being after some simple questions that either require a "yes" or "no" or pick between 1 and 5.  

I'm going to try and be more positive though with this health thing.  First, I don't have the pressure of $500 charge because I didn't get something accomplished.  Instead I got it done months in advance.  Second, after the cruise, I'm going gluten free.  I'm lucky enough not to have an allergy like many people I know who have to go gluten free.  Instead I'm doing it for my health and fingers crossed, it'll make the inflammation go down.  Also after the cruise, I plan on working out more.  I may not join a gym, but I don't think it's really necessary to join a gym to be healthier and work out more.  First, spring is almost here and I'm going to try to get back into running.  And I really want to try Yoga....I think the whole stretching your body and learning to breathe correctly is a wonderful way to destress.

So this is my promise to myself, to become healthier starting mid-March when I return from my trip.  It's my body, why don't I try to start taking the best care of it possible?
