Did I do it? Yes after lunch I did the "Dance of the Inches: Calorie Blasting Party" on netflix.  It was a good fit for my current low level of fitness, but would probably be to easy if I were in slightly better shape/practice.  That said, I had fun and I feel really good now.

Just found this post about make SMARTER fitness goals.  

S – Specific  

M – Measurable

A – Achievable

R – Realistic

T – Time bound

E – Exciting

R – Recorded

So this weeks goal, Floss every day for 21 days.  It is specific, it is measurable, aachievable, realistic, time bound.  It's not really exciting, but I guess not having gum disease is a fairly nice if not exciting, it is recorded here on the blog.  

So this week's goal.  Exercise every day for at least a half hour every day for twenty one days.  Twenty One different work outs?  That sounds great.  

Day 3 - Flossing

Day 3
Habit: Flossing
Did I do it? Yes, after my nap.  My gums do feel tighter, but they are a little sore today.  Trying to decide what my next habit should be.  

Water? 

Exercise?

Vitamins?

I think that I will probably do water next week.  

Day 2 - Flossing

Day 2
Habit: Flossing
Did I do it? Yes, after lunch, gums feel more firm already.  Wondering if mouthwash after flossing helps or if it's just in my head.  

Day 1 - Flossing

Day 1
Habit: Flossing
Did I do it? Yes, at 11:30, after I realized that I had overslept and missed my dentist appointment.  A second chance to not get in trouble after not flossing.  Let's see if I can build this habit in 21 days.  I almost always forget to floss, today it was painful and bloody and gross, hopefully it will improve in the next 21 days.
