98, 99, 100

In keeping with my lack of moderation, today is day 100 of good, clean living. Let me say that again.

100.

No nicotine, no alcohol. One. Hundred. Days.

And for the past fifty-something days, I've had no caffeinated coffee, no coca-cola. I'm on a health kick high. I've been drinking lots of water, doing Bikram Yoga about once a week, hitting the gym on average 4 days a week. It's kind of crazy. Not sure what happened. It just snow-balled.

I feel really... clean. In the truest sense of the word. My skin feels good and I feel good in it. I feel myself. And I like it.

Does this mean I'm going to be a tea-totaler forever? I don't know about that. I really don't think I should start making promises, to myself or anyone else. I still think mastering moderation could be a very worthy goal. But right now I feel good. I feel strong. Don't look now, but I've got WILL power. And lots of it. Who knew?

And I've got momentum. Momentum can be powerful stuff. Still, no promises about 300 days or 200 days or any of that nonsense.

But I am looking forward to 101.

That is awesome, Tam! I have actually always admired your will-power. I have very little. I'm good about working out, I think just because i actually enjoy it as crazy as that sounds. But, the diet is a problem for me. And, caffeine is hard too. And, I'm hosting bunco in a few weeks so the alcohol thing will HAVE to wait.

See where I get into trouble? I think I need you to come and mentor me on the ways of the strong willed and dedicated. HA!
