Welcome to Resolution Sunday.
Every Sunday, I’ll resolve to do one simple thing in the coming week in an effort to change my life for the better.
Rules are simple for Resolution Sunday.
- No incredibly unrealistic goals, such as “I will stop eating refined carbs.”
- Resolutions must be small, small steps in an overall big picture, so as to minimize the pressure of having to accomplish anything meaningful.
- Only ONE resolution per week.
- Resolution Sunday posts have to be really short. Otherwise, this will undermine the underlying point of Resolution Sunday which is to avoid writing a “real” post.
- I reserve the right to add and delete rules as I see fit.
So, this week’s resolution?
- Drink 90 ounces of water every day this week.
- Why? Go see for yourself.

I’ve tried to drink that much water and it’s surprisingly difficult. I probably drink 50-60 ounces a day, too. Good luck with your first resolution!

Good one… I’m thinkin’ your Resolution Sunday thing is a great idea. Water, lots of water, should be attainable…. I on the other hand am in agreement that carbs are NOT an option for a reasonable resolution! LOL Carbs = YUMMY!

Avitable: I bought a super cool water holder from Target to motivate me. It’s blue.
B.E. Earl: Well, I suppose if “beer” means water in another language, then…yes, beer counts.
Stef Reed: Especially refined carbs. From McDonald’s, you devil woman, you.
Crys Awesome. LET’S DO THIS!!!! lol.
Sybil Law: You hate water? Isn’t that like hating, I don’t know, air? So, do you not drink water, at all, then?

What a neat idea!
Let’s see… 90 ounces is just over 11 cups of water a day.
That’s a lot of peeing!

I always forget to drink. Even when I was pregnant.
But I love the idea of Resolution Sundays!

I like the idea of a mini-resolution. My mini-resolution will be to come up with an idea for a mini-resolution.
