    After reading some inspiring blogs on MFP last night I'm applying some good habits...
    Pre-track food-done!
    Mow lawn & walk
    Prep some veggies
    Bring fruit for snack in car
    Buy more fruit
    Drink 8-10 cups of water
    Preplan meals for the week
    Try not to snack while tired.
    In bed between 9-9:30!
    Have a great day everyone!

    Earlier today I responded to a post with a comment that spoke right to my own heart...I said
    "letting go of the past for today. A very good goal indeed! Go for it...the past just becomes a heavy drag...Today you can do without it!! "

    This needs to be one of my goals TODAY and not worry about if I can also do it tomorrow...today is enough for today...I'm too tired to keep pulling 60 years of past and it hasn't done any good! So I'm putting down the chain today! Awesome...feels good and it is right....blessings you all....

    Yesterday, Monday, 9/7
    1. keep water with me in the evenings to keep from snacking. If I am really hungry, drink a glass of milk. :)
    2. replace one bad habit with a good habit. Bad habit today - eating while sewing. Just for today, no eating in my sewing room :) - I had some nuts, but I stopped sewing, went and ate them in the kitchen!
    3. My legs are tired yet from the past 2 days of exercising, but I am going to try and get out for a walk tonite - maybe a 30 minute walk. :/ Got in a 15 minute walk - but saw storm clouds building, so decided to get back home.


    JFT, Tuesday, 9.8
    1. NO eating in my sewing room -- REplace this habit with a good habit.
    2. Drink water in the evenings to keep from snacking
    3. get in a 40 minute walk or bike ride tonite!

    Huh? What do you mean?

    In this context, a thread and a topic are the same thing...

    Tuesday's goals
    - Really enjoy and appreciate the time I'll have with my 94 y.o. Nan.... I don't see her as much as I should so really.make it count! :)
    - Manage portion size at lunch at my dad's tomorrow .... to help me come within 10% of calories target :( Not so good. Did limit portions but still ate a bit too much of the quiche and had more ice cream than I needed for dessert. Am about 20% over target today.

    Rather on the late side for today, but this is more for the rest of the week and not health or fitness related (at best it counts life improvement). I will keep calm and not freak myself out or work myself out about my driving test on Friday. I'm not a horrible driver just not good yet either. Passing would be awesome and what I really want, but failing the driving test the first time is not a big deal. Very Inconvienent and very annoying, but not the end of the world and is not an overall sign of failure. Accept it and move on by learning from my mistakes, practice some more, and reschedule the test again as soon as possible.

    2. Attend Patchwork Group this morning



    Terri - are you a quilter? Just wondering if this is what your Patchwork group is. I love to quilt and sew. Mostly in the evenings -- now if I can just keep doing this instead of grabbing snacks in between sewing :)

    What a great idea! I feel much of my binge eating or late night snacking is due to boredom sitting in front of the TV, finally " relaxing"... I'm not into quilting but it seems like I need to find something that works for me. Any ideas?

    I do all sorts of crafts, paint watercolours, write poetry. I am an ex-teacher, so I run 4 groups for a local charity and belong to another 10 or so, but will have to put them on hold until I recover from my hip op. I have a new patchwork project, my first full quilt, which I hope will keep me busy. :)

    JFT
    1. Listen to the Doctor/physio and follow there instructions
    2. Go home. Yippee!
    3. Relax. Op went very well! Say the X-ray.

    On track for a speedy recovery :)

    JFT Wed 9/09
    1. Do physio exercises
    2. Get up and move every hour
    3. Be thankful
