My eco-chic lifestyle change SMART goal is to: drink six to eight 8 ounce glasses of water everyday in my re-usable metal water bottle!
So far things are going pretty well! I still am finding it a little challenging to drink all of the water, but I am doing my best. I had used a couple crystal light packets to make it easier to drink the water, but last night in my Women's Health Issues class I learned that aspartame is in crystal light, so needless to say I am going to steer clear of crystal light. I am going to just start using lemons and limes in my water to add flavor.
It is interesting how often I am hearing things about plastic bottles these days, I don't know if I am just paying more attention to what people are talking about, but every time I hear someone talk about how terrible plastic bottles are for our environment it makes me feel so good that I am doing this as my SMART goal!
I think the biggest thing I am learning from my SMART goal is that when you make a goal, even if it seems simple it feels really good to stick to that goal. Every time that I re-fill my metal water bottle I feel good because I know what I am doing is good for me and the environment!
I don't see myself changing much for this upcoming week, so hopefully things will keep going well!

Keep up the good work! And definitely get rid of that aspartame!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your statement about having a "simple" goal and how it makes you feel really good completing it. I like hearing about everyone else's goal because it makes me more aware of what else I can do. Good Job Hailey!!
ReplyDeleteWhoa I need to stop drinking crystal light too!
ReplyDeleteMy roommate drinks a crystal light packet pretty much everyday, I should let her to know! One of my favorites in water is lemons and cucumber, you should give it a try!
