    For anyone wanting to join us, this is not set up as a "Group". We would love anyone that wants to post = you do not have to write and ask to join us. Love to hear from anyone wanting to take this one day at a time!

    This is an awesome group. So much support. So far it's a good day, but I do well at work, because I don't have all those snacks here. At home I have 2-16 year olds and I get them snacks. I do get them snacks that I don't like which helps me alot and then I try to stay upstairs and not come down except on occasion if I need to do things.
    This weather is totally sucking here, there is a chance for frozen precipitation tomorrow right at the morning rush hour. So if it gets bad, I will be back at home again, in which I get bored, which is a bad thing for me, because I want to eat.
    Well, I'm just going to keep trying to stay strong and I know I will prevail as long as I keep trying and don't give up.
    Everyone have a good evening and I enjoy hearing from everyone on this post.

    1. Take a walk. I'm taking extra clothes with me so I can get a hike in the snow. :D Hiking in snow is harder than I remember. But I did have fun. :D
    2. keep track of my eating and no snacking after 9pm. :D
    3. Relax and enjoy my half day off. :D I know grocery shopping is not relaxing for some people, but I enjoyed getting a chance to pick out healthy choices for my next week.

    Bonus I had enough time to cut up some fruit and make a salad that I can grab for my lunches the next couple of days. :D

    So Happy Friday Everyone! Just for today I will

    1. Take a walk. I will be able to get out of work for a while, so I need to get to the mall and walk.
    2. keep track of my eating and no snacking after 10 pm
    3. Focus on the positive. Dwelling on the negative does not help anyone.

    Have a Good Day!

    Yesterday, 2/19
    1. Carry a glass of water with me so I remember to drink instead of eating :)
    2. Log everything I eat :) I SO wanted to get a cookie at McDonalds, but I stopped myself. Then last nite I went to my quilting club meeting - they had all these goodies all over the place - cookies,chips, even brownies! But I told myself I was not hungry, and walked away. A huge victory for me. I want these smiley faces!
    3. Report here tomorrow how I did, and do it again tomorrow!! :):)


    So Just for today, friday
    1. Carry that glass of water with me all day to remind me to drink water
    2. Log everybite that I eat
    3. Remember that to change old habits, develop a new habit. I have a habit of eating in the evenings - my worse time. So working on developing a new habit instead of eating!
    4. Report here how I did - and do it again the next day!


    I hope you all have a great FRiday!

    Just for today I'll concentrate on getting myself to my personal training weekend without spending time worrying about whether I'm ready, or going to pass, or fail, or whatever.

    Good morning everyone!
    Hit a wall yesterday so I allowed myself to rest & just be OK that I'm not perfect.
    Was great to share with my MFP friends.
    Feeling good this morning.
    Just for today:
    1) Drink at least 8 glasses of water
    2) Don't binge on Quest products because they are "better" :p
    3) Manage calories a little better
    4) Stay grateful :)
    Make it a great Friday (*)

    2) Walk/jog 55 minutes on treadmill- done
    3) Work out on weight machines for 30 minutes
    4) Stay at or under 1200 calories
    5) Stay out of the kitchen unless I am cooking for the kids and then not excessively taste testing what I am cooking. (A bad habit of mine.)

    Just for Today 2/19
    1. exercise 30 minutes :)
    2. log everything :(

    Logging seems to be such a struggle, but I'm gonna take a win. We met a friend for dinner after work yesterday. Got home around 7:30. It was dark and drizzly out. I meandered around the house for a about 15 minutes trying to find a reason NOT to get my walk in. Then I just did it. So happy I did!

    Just for Today 2/20
    1. exercise 30 minutes
    2. log everything (gotta keep trying)
