Eco-Chic Lifestyle Change Week 4: Weekly Update

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! 

I am happy to report that things are still going well!  Last week I finally bought a new water bottle, it's not a glass one which I had originally planned on buying, but it is a beautiful purple metal water bottle.  
I haven't had many challenges this week, I think I am getting used to drinking the amount of water specified above, so it is becoming less and less of a challenge to drink the water.  I do however feel that I want to add on to my SMART goal since I have reached a point where I am feeling "comfortable" with my goal.  With that said my NEW SMART GOAL is to: drink six to eight 8 ounce glasses of water everyday in my re-usable metal water bottle, and to also use a re-usable bag every time I go to the grocery store!
I learned this last weekend that I use plastic bags more than I think I do when I go grocery shopping.  This is my main reason for adding on to my goal.  I want to make myself more aware of non-environmentally friendly habits that I have and work toward getting rid of those bad habits.
An interesting website that I found called Twenty-Five Reasons to Go Reusable , is something I think everyone should check, it has some pretty good facts about plastic bags and why using reusable bags is so important!
I am excited to start off this week with a re-vamped goal!  Hopefully I will have lots of good things to report in next weeks update!
