So last weekend I had this revelation that I need to quit five things! I am on a six week quit from a few things and I am going strong....this is only the second week! The first being sugar! It is so embarrassing to admit that I would eat croissant rolled up with Nutella at night....like 4-6 of them! Who does that? I also baked cookies almost every night or brownies! It was out of hand. I was eating like I was pregnant! Gross! So I have quit desserts....for the time being!
I also quit excuses to NOT go to the gym! I have never been in shape and I have decided to put the excuses and friendly meetings aside to commit to going to the gym five days a week. Right now I am doing spin on MWF and yoga on TT. I have always enjoyed yoga but, spin is somewhat new to me. I was doing it hard core before I found out I was pregnant with Harry...so like five years ago! Anyway, I seriously think I am going to pass out during class! I also insisted that I was having a heart attack yesterday! It is a great challenge! We will see how it goes!
I also quit Facebook. I quit getting on it a while back before my quitting spree! It just bugged me and I it was so easy to access with my phone...it is also embarrassing how much I was on it! I am keeping it active because I did have to get on to message a few people about some things but overall....I am done reading statuses and writing them. Maybe I will spill the beans on what put me over the edge! I have actually decided to just read the Bible when I want to get on. I was doing that before too. For every status I would read I would go to the Bible app and read a verse. I believe God's word is benefiting me more than statuses and events.
Another embarrassing thing I do is bite my nails. I have done this since I was three! Gross I know, but I don't gnaw at them. Chad didn't even know I bit them until I told him a year or so ago! It always bothered my GG but, never me. We will se how this goes! Once again, when I start to pick at them or bite them, I start giving thanks to God.
I don't know what started my movement to quit. It is all mental but, so far so good! Here's to my six week program!

Quitting FB was one of the best things I ever did!!! It was amazing how much time would be wasted on it!! I need to cut sugar too....my sweet eating has been OUT OF CONTROL!!!
Good for you!! I bet you will feel so good when it's out of your system/habits. I quit caffiene a couple of weeks ago and feel amazingly better. I have way more energy and feel like a have a better outlook on life. I can think more clearly. I also cut way back on facebook a while back. Now I get on it pretty much solely to check on my friend, Susan. It's such a time waster! Love you!
I am very impressed! I need to follow your example!
