    Happy Wonderful Wednesday B) I hope yours has not been a Wacky Wednesday (Dr. Seuss)

    You will not believe what I did.
    Last night I could not get to sleep so fixed a cup of hot "get some zzz's™ tea". Mind you - had no thought of food but I opened the refrig door and found a handful of red sweet cherries.
    And did I even even think about NO LATE NIGHT SNACKING. No :s

    I was in pain the whole day yesterday, therefore nothing was accomplished. :/ Today is much better. :)


    Tues 7/715
    :/ 1. I will eat only my planned food - no late night snacking.
    :/ 2. Finish the dining room
    :/ 3. Walk out side if my leg can handle it.
    :/ 4. Mail return packages
    :) 5. Start following Fly Lady again.

    Today is a repeat of yesterday but I am hopeful I will accomplish a few of the goals.

    Wed 7/8/15
    1. I will eat only my planned food - no late night snacking.
    2. Finish the dining room
    3. Walk out side if my leg can handle it.
    4. Mail return packages
    5. Start following Fly Lady again.
    6. To Dr. for prothom test

    - double bootcamp
    - hit or under calorie target

    Connect with myself and others.

    Achieved first two. And pushed so hard at both bootcamps!
    Working on the 3rd and did give it some attention today.

    Thursday's goals:
    - prep bike for cycling (pump tyres, check lights etc)
    - if all ok cycle to evening social event to burn some calories
    - stay within 15% of normal calorie goal. I find this really tough on non bootcamp days.. so am slightly flexing the target on 'social days' to still lead to weight loss but just be a bit more achievable and enjoyable. Target still works out at only 1420 with adjustment and I'm good with this.

    I'm going to join everyone here to come up with my goals for the remainder of the day and tomorrow.

    7/8/15
    I have been successful completing most things on my to-list today, but spent too much time checking this and other sites, which prevented me from being productive in other things.

    Tonight: I will:

    1. Complete 3 more items on my to-do list. (the 4th/last item may have to wait until tomorrow)
    2. Not eat anything but drink water/tea after 10 PM.
    3. Be in bed by midnight. Will attempt to sleep before 1 am. (I've become nocturnal)
    4. Not check mfp or other message boards unless logging any more calories.

    Tomorrow 7/9/15 I will:
    1. Wake up at 7 AM and get over of bed by 7:30.
    2. Post my goals for the day with follow-up of tonght 8 AM

    JFT 9 July:

    2. 3+ pints water/tea
    3. Exercise 30+ min
    4. Get thru an overwhelmingly busy day with PATIENCE!!
    5. Call the "garage sale junk" guy who buys what's left of people's gsale leftovers.

    P.S. @mom216: Yes, we love books too--I'm pretty sure we probably have over 1000...but there are always ones that we just don't end up using/liking anymore...Once we sell some, I don't feel so bad about getting MORE :) !

    @feistyjojo: I've been wondering for a while, what are these bootcamps that you do? Do you have to go to a gym, or can it be done at home?

    4. At least 30 min exercise. Run/walk or gym
    5. In bed 11:30. Try to sleep 12:30
    6. Don't waste time with unimportant things on computer. (ex. Limit social media (including mfp, games to the time I allowed myself on my schedule)
    7. Stay focused on "work" tasks. (Ex. Research no more than 30 min each item. (focus for 25 min)
    8. Complete other items on personal task list

    Tomorrow AM:
    1. Wake up at 7 AM and get over of bed by 7:30.

    Computer is not happy with me and I can't find yesterdays goals, but I'm pretty sure they didn't happen as I was a bum last night.
    so JFT Thursday (how is that possible?)
    1. no munching, meals and planned snacks only
    2. running slow this morning and forgot the milk for my coffee, so only one cup to avoid the sugar and creamer.
