    Just stopping by to say hello.

    I was out of town for several days and did not track or set goals. I've been a little off track with exercise (lots of time in cars and boats, not enough enough time moving) but my eating was fine.

    I need to go to a fancy event this Friday, so tomorrow I will be back to setting strict goals.

    Cheers!

    Good day yesterday. Came up short on my work out time at 42 minutes but was below my calorie goal. Walked away from a late night snack.

    Reminded myself of my I'm getting healthier, both morning and evening.

    Monday

    Just for Today:
    1. I will look for the positives in my day and not focus on the negative
    2. I will eat only whole food. Nothing processed.
    3. I will drink 10 glasses of water.

    Have a wonderful week everyone!

    Tuesday's Just for Today:
    1. I will write down my to-do list and check off items as I go so I can see the progress I'm making
    2. I will again look for the positives
    3. I will drink 10 glasses of water

    Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! B)

    2. Log everything
    3. Exercise 1 hour

    o:) I will resist the box of baklava at work. It killed my calories yesterday and while I left an allowance for a couple of biscuits, I didn't allow for this.

    I could NEVER be trusted alone with baklava! I would have to take it outside and throw it in my neighbor's garbage can. No. I would have to have one of my kids do that, because I would probably eat it on the way!. :wink: :blush:

    Had to report back already on one of mine. Didn't get frustrated, mildly impatient and confused at the lack of the system interaction, signed, and have a new car. Now to work on getting more driving time before my driver's license test on Sept. 11, which should be easier in a vehicle that isn't my husband's baby and is smaller and easier to drive.

    Tuesday's goal:
    - no sugar type snacks, whatever else I do. That's it. I'm going to break the sugar monster's hold on me!

    Hmmmm... not quite. I had a 2 biscuits at the conference venue I was working at today. The only good news is that I talked myself out of the 'well I've blown it so might as well carry on' conversation and stopped. Made myself really check in with hunger level (which was generally at 'ravenous' all day today) and what I really wanted, recognising that craving might just be a symptom of something else.
    Just asking myself that helped me to break the urge long enough to start doing something else.
