Women's Healthy Weight Day
(The men today can observe International Walking On Eggshells Day - ha!)

Today is a day to celebrate each other right at the size we are at.  I 100% support that. I also 100% support women, and men, practicing lifestyle habits that get them to a healthy weight.  The facts are too hard to ignore.  The more we weigh the more strain we are putting on our joints, organs, etc. Now. Our healthy weight is most likely NOT what media and culture will tell us, get with a doctor and discuss what your true healthy weight is.  Then make a commitment to yourself to get to that weight and maintain it.  It's a lifestyle not a flash in the pan diet.  Make changes that are realistic for a permanent lifestyle.  Here's 24 tips for losing and maintaining a healthy weight without dieting.
But today? Even if you aren't at your healthy weight, I most definitely am not, celebrate you anyway! You are not the sum total of your body size, you are SO MUCH MORE!

Answer your Cat's Question Day
We don't have cats, they make me sneeze and my eyes get so irritated.
Has your cat asked you a question lately?  If so, then today is the day to answer!

Celebration of Life Day
Most Google searches come up with ideas for memorial services, i.e. celebrating someone's life after they have passed.  But today is about celebrating people while they are still alive!  If what I'm about to say is a spoiler, I apologize.  In The Fault in our Stars some of the characters have a pre-death celebration of life moment.  It gives everyone a chance to say what they really want to and while the person is still alive.  The lesson of this could be that we should all be making sure to let the people we know and love how we celebrate them and their lives on a consistent basis!

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
