Happy New Year!!!! After all of our rituals and traditions to welcome a new year, we listed our resolutions and goals. Once the excitement of the night died down, we sat together and reflected on what we wanted to accomplish. From a raise of hands, it was clear that more than a few of us had resolutions we keep carrying over year after year. So, I added one more resolution to my list: help others keep on track with theirs. This was going to be easy for me thanks to the Unlimited Talk Text and Data/Web plan that most of us use.
The hardest resolution for me, and it seems for cousin D as well, is weight loss. For Christmas, Santa bought him a Walmart Family Mobile Samsung Galaxy Exhibit. I already had mine, so we are set. I know that with our Lowest Priced Unlimited Plans by Walmart Family Mobile of $34.88 per month, plus the fact that we have Unlimited Talk, Text and Data to be on the internet as much as we need to, we will definitively keep in line with loosing the unwanted pounds.
By the way, cousin D’s wife shared that Santa had saved some money at Walmart on the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit which was reduced to $79.00 from $99.88. This was perfect because she used the savings to get a second line for herself for only $29.88 a month. Way to go Santa!
Another great thing is the 5GB of 3G Data of our service offers because it means that we have more speed to do more with our plan. I am very excited about this because no waiting means there is no time to change our minds. We will stay to course.
The first thing we did was download a couple of apps. I chose a calorie counting one, while my cousin went for exercising kind. Indeed it was a breeze doing the download, and very quickly we were set with the first tools we wanted on the phone.
We sat together and also decided that each month we are going to focus on specific exercises: abs, push-ups, arm crunches etc. Now our January’s phone calendar has an entry for every day showing how many sit-up repetitions we are to do. We have also included some rest days in our calendar as well.
Also using the phone’s calendar, I scheduled a few alarms every month for the entire year, so I could send dear cousin D some motivational quotes, jokes on weight loss and simple reminders to stay on track. By the way, I have been searching the web at length for a few funny images with no issues of delays or long downloading times. I keep smiling with what I find. It is working wonders for my own weight loss enthusiasm!
Just yesterday I typed him a message reminding him to eat healthy and stay on track. I was excited because my text deterred him from eating an ice cream! I guess I sent mymessage at precisely the right time. This phone features and service is already proving that it does help our goals! Woot!
Now I don’t leave home without a bottle of water, some fruit and my phone. I am determined to achieve my weight loss goals this year and help others at it too. This far I am enjoying our calendars, exchanges, and becoming a cheerleader of sorts 🙂
Is a healthier lifestyle among your resolutions this year too? Anything special you are doing to keep on track with it? If you need a cheerleader, let me know, I will be happy to support you! Here is to your resolutions, water cheers!

I’m really not surprised at all the Walmart has such great deals on phones and phone plans. They have great deals on everything!
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
We are under contract right now, but this sounds like a great plan for when our contract is up!
Sarah Bailey says
I wish they had, had such deals when I was younger, I would whizz through my credit in no time with all the texting I did. x
Jaime says
Getting a smartphone for under $100 is almost unheard of. And getting a deal on texting and data is imperative. You did a great job!
Pam says
Walmart has some great prices on phones and phone plans. Our son had a go phone plan from them for a while and it was perfect for him.
Amber NElson says
This sounds like a great phone and a great deal too! I’m going to check into this.
Lois Alter Mark says
I’m always interested in hearing about ways to reduce our ridiculously high cell phone bill!
Mama to 5 BLessings says
Wow I had no idea that Walmart had such great plans – perfect for big families like mine!
Ann Bacciaglia says
This is such a great deal. I would love unlimited talk and text.
touristmeetstraveler says
Walmart always impressed with their great prices; it’s pretty crazy! A new plan would be nice, this one sound affordable!
Nicole says
I would never think to look at Walmart for a phone plan. It makes sense that I could likely get a cheaper one there.
Life As A Convert says
I definitely need to start eating healthier. I eat a lot of healthy foods, but I like junk food too 😉
Kay Adeola says
Sounds like a great deal,We have pay as you go pones and do not spend a lot on them at all since calls and texts between our networks are free.I think I have not had a new phone in at least 4 years and I really need one.
Rena McDaniel says
I really need to check into this! I pay an outrageous amount to ATT every single month. It is getting crazy and maybe this is what I need to do to save some money.
Chrystal @ YUM eating says
I think it is great that WalMart and Smart Talk offer such great phones and good prices. I often wish I could get my husband to switch because we ay an arm and a leg for our phone services.
Heather says
That’s awesome timing. Would you text me when I’m about to binge? 😉
admin99 says
Most definitely would be happy to text you and avoid a binge party!
Melissa Smith says
The hubs & I have been talking about switching carriers for our cell phones because it’s getting expensive. I think we just need to go to Walmart & look now.
Marielle Altenor says
So wish these awesome plans were available in Montreal! I pay so much for my data plan. =(
Paula Shuck says
I can’t believe you got a smartphone for under $100. That’s pretty amazing. Would never have thought to look to Walmart for plans either.
Tough Cookie Mommy says
Weight loss is so hard during the holidays. I am back on my grind after gaining some pounds this Christmas.
Danielle says
I found that by making sure I ate breakfast and always had a water bottle on me that I was more prone to sticking with my plan for the day when it came to healthy eating and exercise. Great resolutions! #client
