Cheap Therapy Solution #2 and #3

(a follow up to my Cheap Therapy post)

Drink more water

 

The water cooler guy (for lack of a better description) was at my office.  He offered me a special on residential delivery. I thought I'd give it a try because our well water is very hard.  Now a month later, I'd say it's worth the cost.  My kids are drinking more water since the cooler is right there.  Both my son and I have given up sodas for Lent.  I do feel much better the days I drink more water.  As for extras on the water cooler, my daughter felt it needed some decorations.  The rocks are from various rivers and streams we've waded in.

Eat better

 

I can tell a big difference when I eat well and when I don't.  Maybe it's growing old but I'll pick feeling better over eating junk or eating too much.  Same goes for drinking - a glass of wine or one beer is about my limit these days.  My eating habits had slipped over the last few months.  I didn't feel as good either.  The thing is I like healthy foods.  My downfall is laziness.  I've made a big effort to eat better. To go along with Cheap Therapy and trying something new I have connected with a nutritional coach for a week (beginning next Monday) to educate and motivate me.  I will post about working with Sara and how I am feeling once we get started.
