Eco-Chic Lifestyle Change Week 8: Weekly Update



My Smart Goal:
To drink six to eight 8 ounce glasses of water everyday in my reusable metal water bottle, and to also use a reusable bag every time I go to the grocery store!
Successes & Challenges: 
Again I had a really successful week!  I really surprise myself sometimes with how much water I drink, I feel like a lot of the time I just pick up my water bottle and sip away at it without even realizing it!  I didn't go grocery shopping this week, but I did use my reusable bag a few different times this past week when I was bringing things to and from school.  This past week could have been a problem for me since I was extremely busy with school, but I think the fact that drinking all of my water is becoming such a part of my life that I just do it now.
Feelings: 
I think the best way to sum up my feelings is that I feel really good!  I feel good about my goal, and in return sticking with my goal makes me feel really good!  I know that just because I have chosen to drink all of this water and use a reusable bag every time I go grocery shopping for my goal, that I am definitely going to continue to do this after this semester!
What I Learned:  I honestly think that the biggest thing I have learned from all these weeks of doing my goal, is that I truly can do anything if I put my mind to it!  I'm not usually that big of a goal setter when it comes to things like this, I mean I do set goals for myself in school, but really I don't usually just sit down and set a goal for myself, so this whole experience has just been a really great one for me!
Plans For Next Week:
I am keeping everything the same!
