Toast To A Better Life

Today's post is a toast to a awesome future. Starting today there will be many changes in my life. Though most of them are related to my mental state and lifestyle there are, nonetheless, very important. Everything from my diet, to my attitude and outlook on life is going to have a strong and drastic change. No more slacking and/or riding through days without any productive and positive outcome. From now on everything matters and each moment of every single day should be spent doing something great.

There is exactly six months left till the end of this year, which means that every moment counts more than ever, so I better get moving. 

Being the first day, I took things moderately, ate well, dressed well, made both of my blog posts, made dinner, went for a walk, and even managed to do minor cleaning around the house. For a start I'll accept today's productivity, but will only continue to better myself every day and surely keep my loyal readers updated on my progress.

However, many of us tend to reach for the more sugary drinks to help quench our thirst instead of nature's number one gift to humanity. The benefits are countless and the importance or water consumption could never be underestimated. So the best thing to do is to drink as much as possible or at least 8 cups per day.

 

Here are some of the most know benefits of drinking water:

My Vitamins

It would be wrong for me to tell you that I am a very health conscious person, however, I do like to take care of my body and health. And even though there are many temptations that steer me away from a very healthy diet, I try my best to maintain a good body weight, figure, and overall health. To help me in my quest for a healthier and more active lifestyle, I use a few vitamins and diet supplements that help boost my overall well being. Baring that in mind, I have three primary vitamins and herbal capsules that I like to take on a daily basis:

 

1. One A Day Women's Gummies: Complete adult multivitamin. 

 

2. Cinnamon: Helps regulate blood sugar and metabolism.

3. Evening Primrose Oil : A direct source of GLA Evening Primrose Oil is great for smooth skin, lustrous, hair, and strong nails, among other things. It is great for hormonal balance, helps support the structure and function of: inflammatory and immune response, glands and organs responsible for hormone metabolism, nerve function, joint health and skin cell production. It is an absolute gem, and my most prized and safe guarded beauty and health secret.
 

 

 

It goes without saying that theses are my personal opinions and choices, and is in no way shape of form a medical advice or promotion. Everyone should consult his/her physician before taking any type of supplements, vitamins and/or medications.

 

I find that the combination of these three work best for me and provide enough balance for my overall diet. I also try and take things as organic as possible, which in return help me benefit the from these herbs at their purest form available.

Make A Wish

One of my favourite things to do is make lists about everything and anything. Seriously, I make lists for almost everything in my life... things I have to do, things I want to get, places I want to visit, books I want to read, groceries, resolutions, expenses, bills, even this list goes on and on. Nonetheless, I enjoy this habit of mine, so much so that I go over all the lists I have multiple times a day, constantly making adjustments and adding new items to my ongoing chain of hopes, dreams and responsibilities. Among them is one that I cherish the most, the one that holds my most desired and highly anticipated wishes. 

They are as follows:

10. Get to my initial healthy weight of 115 lbs!
9. Meet Celine Dion!
8. Travel to Paris with my husband!
7. Be completely depth free by my 30th Birthday!
6. Have the wedding of my dreams!
5. Be the proud owner of a luxurious Day Spa!
4. Buy my dream house!
3. Reconcile with my parents!
2. Become a mother!
1. "No measure of time with my husband will be long enough. But we'll start with forever."
