Anonymous asked: I have been chronically thirsty for 8 months or so - I've just started drinking more water for 2 weeks now, on its own as opposed to juice mixed with water etc.... since doing so I seem to be worse and can't keep up with it.

Smoke free for the past 9 days now!
I had a pretty intense craving for a cigarette today… I was not in the best of moods, anyway I was about to stop at the gas station but for some reason my body didn’t turn the wheel to pull in, so I ended up just going back home!

My first healthy habit that I want to instill is drinking a lot of water. I am kind OK at this already but I need to really ingrain it, and since this one isn’t too hard to do I thought it would be perfect to start out with. I want to start out really easy that way I don’t get the urge to quite before the habits are in place.

Health/Weight
Sorry that I haven’t been updating this as religiously as I should have. But I plan to continue to post in this blog as much as I can.
Going through the ups and downs of dieting, eating healthy for about a week and then just saying “screw it” and eating whatever I want; has been really tiring, annoying, and enfuriating the past year. And truthfully I am tired of getting on my...
