Today is Day 276 of my Daily Food Diary! 💝
It is three years and eight months since I started my general Health and Fitness Journey – diet, exercise, stress management…
Since I began this journey, I have noticed a number of benefits due to my new lifestyle. Most, if not all, creep up so gradually that I do not recognize them until one day – poof! I look at the scale and realize I have lost forty pounds, I try on pants that I have not been able to squeeze into for years and they are a perfect fit. I go to take out a bag of garbage and there is no struggle getting it to the bin out back or lifting it high enough to toss it in…
This morning, I came across such a benefit that had crept up on me…
I went to get my vitamins (B12, Lutein, D3) to fill my weekly pill dispenser and I realized that my cabinet had little else in it.
Over the past few years, I have done away with the giant bottle of Aspirin, the huge bottle of Tums, the cough syrup, the Imodium, the cortisone creams, and more. To be honest, other than the Claritin and my three vitamins, I don’t remember when I used anything in this cabinet.
Not only this cabinet, but my purse as well, used to look like a well stocked drug store. 😳
I still have my inhalers for asthma, bronchiectasis, and COPD. I have a bottle of CBD drops and CBD cream (which I seldom use) and I have my Collagen Supplement (which is not going anywhere, anytime soon).
Today it is time to celebrate another win. 🎊
