    1. DO a minimun of 20 minutes of exercise, whether it be ellipitical, walking, or anything! :) Got in a small walk, but after just being sick for a week, this is at least a start!
    2. Focus on 8 glasses of water :) DONE!
    3. Log everything I eat! :) Even logged my mindless eating a handful of M&Ms
    4. Keep my sugar grams within MFP guidelines :) I was over by about 7 gms, but much better

    Just for Today...
    1. I will remember that sometimes I mistake THIRST for HUNGER. Drink a large glass of water, and wait 10 minutes before I go and get something to eat.
    2. Still not feeling all that great, but I will try and do at least 20 minutes on the ellipitical
    3. Concentrate on drinking WATER WATER WATER!!!



    I enjoy SO much reading everyone's posts! Thank you all -- keeps me coming back and staying on track one day at a time!

    Well, I weighed myself this morning, reset my weight. Yikes, How can weight go on so quickly! But I know what to do -- watch my sugar intake. So I added another thing for today

    2. Listen to my body.
    3. Eat consciously
    4. Walk
    5. Do strengthening exercises.

    01/02 Just for today:


    3. "let it go" - not being able to keep a spotless house does not make me a bad person. I am not the only person living in this house and the only one working full time, I cannot do it all.

    I know for me also, I try to do to much. I now don't really worry about the small stuff -- taking care of our health is the most important thing we have!

    I'm about to get my walk in but wanted to share this first:

    I don't go long without eating. I never starve myself: I grab a healthy snack.

    I love this idea, and I am so glad I found this posting.
    Just for today:

    1) Log my food (check)
    2) Increase H2O intake (so so 4 gl.)
    3) Not eat bad carbs (did pretty well ate 1 pita w/ supper and tasted not even a tsp. of cake batter)
    PS the cake is not for me. :)
    4) Tell myself I am proud of myself for even doing this much.

    Good night to all, going to Lumosity to work my brain :)
