    Will stay under my net calorie goal
    Will work out for 80 minutes.
    Will listen to a health and wellness podcast on my walk. Don't buy a lot of the theories (Tapping, rebounding?) but am intrigued by the conversations.
    Will reinforce my reasons for becoming healthier both morning and afternoon

    Well under my calorie goal but didn't work out. If I don't work out in the morning, I find excuses not to work out the rest of the day
    Said out loud my mantra on becoming healthier.

    For today:

    I WILL work out for 80 minutes. Will walk and will do my workout routine mindfully, no TV or music
    I will listen to a health and wellness podcast on my walk, with an open mind
    I will reinforce my reasons for becoming healthier, morning and afternoon
    I will stay under my net calorie goal for the day

    Hello! I'm new to MFP but I just had to chime in on your thread because I feel this type of thing can really help to motivate me. I often fail because I concentrate on the whole goal so I think breaking it down to JFT will be very good for me. Thanks!

    JFT:
    1. Plan meals for one week.
    2. Take three deep breaths every hour.
    3. Weigh myself (haven't done that in about a year - I'm scared to see how much I weigh now)

    Did you know that there are indoor walking videos on YouTube? I find them invaluable in wet weather. Just do a search for walking and loads come up.

    Good day yesterday.

    Worked out for 89 minutes including a 2.8 mile walk at 16:44 a mile. Did afternoon workout mindfully with no tv or music, focusing on the activity
    Listened to a Extreme Health Radio podcast on my walk. The general message of mind/body gets through but not sure I'm ready for their level of "outside the box"
    Reinforced the reasons for being healthier, morning and afternoon
    Was 25% under my net calorie goal for the day

    For today:

    I will work out for 80 minutes. Will enjoy a morning walk with my lovely bride
    I will say out loud the reasons I'm progressing on this health journey both morning and afternoon
    I will stay under my net calorie goal for the day moving to a three day streak
    I will spend time getting myself organized so I can hit the ground running Monday morning

    Walk more

    Just for today,

    I give myself permission to not like my adult son. I will love him for who he is, and not who I want him to be.
    These are difficult for me today.

    1. Walk for 30 min
    2. Stay with calorie goal
    3. Drink 10 glasses of water
    4. Staying away from sugar
    continuing with my much more restrictive diet in an attempt to break this plateau. The first few days were the hardest. Hoping this will pay off soon.

    68myra, as you know grown children are exceptionally hard to parent. I know we have to stand back and let them make there own mistakes. Praying that you find peace.

    I'm either coming down with a bug or getting whammied by allergies so mine are simple today, extra liquids, more fruit and veggies, short walk
