I am proud of not drinking any soda this week. I find that having enough fluids in my body affects my hunger level (less hungry). It makes me wonder if people that do not have a natural thirst are more likely to be over weight. Another perspective might be that some people misread thirst as hunger.
I did some research on natural sweeteners and will stick with agave nectar to sweeten my tea. It is low on the glycemic scale and has trace minerals. I will have to find a way to get myself to drink WATER. I just like to drink things with flavor, but flavor equals calories. I don't like to use artificial sweeteners due to all the controversy about whether they stimulate your appetite, and health issues. Perhaps I will plan other tasty (or tasteless) drink throughout the day.
As for exercise, I have not made any progress so far. However, I have an idea about the use of music. I think I will pick one song to develop a brief exercise routine for the morning and the evening. The morning will be movement with all 4 limbs combining aerobics and anaerobics. The evening song will be devoted to stretching.
I will print up my blood pressure charts this weekend and start charting.
