Two for one -- kind of not by choice

So now that I've told my little secret, I can officially check off the two things on my list that were basically forced by that news.
One.  Nick & I like to have "parties".  I think for most people, it's a pretty lame definition of "party" since it's just to two of us and either World of Warcraft, a deck of cards, or our Wii and a few too many alcoholic beverages.  But we're entertained.  And have been for years.  Probably too often.  For as healthy as we are (try to be) with our eating & exercise, we know that our parties are just a sassy thing we should cut back.  And have tried to, relatively unsuccessfully.  It takes just one of us getting home from work, looking tired, and the other says "Party?" and there we go again.


Well.... now that there's a little Lemon Lopez to look after -- that's not an option.  So, #25 - One month, no parties.  Check!  For Valentine's Day, Nick got me a book called Preggatinis, but non-alcoholic ones don't count. :)

Two.  I think vitamins are good for you.  Especially because there's no way that I'm eating 9 servings of fruits & vegetables per day (or what ever the crazy suggested amount is).  However, I can't remember to take the dumb things.  No matter how prominently I put the (Costco sized) bottle - I still ignore it. 

And again, Lemon Lopez requires additional nutrients, so I'm trying my darnedest darnedest to be good about it.  And I have been.  Mostly.  I do try really hard!  I think I've been successful enough that I'm going to count #22 - take a multi vitamin every day for a month as a success.  And a continued success, ugh.

Kind of cheat checks, but they count!  I'm at just over six months left - gotta keep it up!
