Changing bad habits

I have decided recently to try to change some bad habits. I drink entirely too much pop and juice. Actually, I pretty much only drink pop or juice. It is nothing for me to drink a 2 liter of pop in a day. Starting early in the morning. I have been wanting to look better for a while but have not done a thing about it. I eat for no other reason than to eat. Not hungry a lot of the time, but if it sounds good, I have a hard time saying no. I hate exercise, but need to do it. I would rather lay on the couch and watch tv.

So, starting this morning, I am not drinking pop or juice for 60 days. I have also started an exercise program. Jillian Michaels has two dvd's, one is Shape-up Backside and the other is Shape-up Front. They are both hard, but doable. While I do not love these changes, it is time for something. I am going to watch what I eat, but not deny myself since I am already denying myself pop and juice. If I try to do too much too fast, I know I will lose heart and quit it all together. So, I am only doing the workouts 3 times a week. I am setting my goal for 10 lbs. You might say this is a small goal, but I would rather set a smaller goal and surpass it, than to not reach it.

Wish me luck and your encouragement will be greatly appreciated!
