Just for today, I will:
•Do 20 mins HIIT and strength training after work.
•Drink 2 litres of water.
•Go to bed before 11pm.1 -
After a weekend of eating way too many leftovers, including pie, brownies, etc., time to get back on track. I should have just thrown away all the dressing, sweets, etc left over from thanksgiving, but I hate to throw away food.
So back at it, time to get back to healthy eating.
so JFT
1. dentist appt today, so my mouth is still numb! So drink lots of water!
2. log all food. I have not been doing this -- this is an important step in the right direction
3. get out and walk today. I pulled my back when the grandsons were here, so I have been taking it slow. At least walking is something I can do until it is better to get to the gym.
4. get back on here tomorrow. Be accountable!1 -

We could be twins! I ate too many leftovers that I had planned on throwing away too! Then, I hurt my back so was on the couch with a heating pad after cleaning up toys in the basement the grandkids left out. And FINALLY, I have not been journaling since the day before Thanksgiving. I have been a sassy, sassy girl and I paid for it at my weigh-in today!
Good luck! We can do this!

Soooooooo, just for today/Tuesday:
1. Pack my breakfast and lunch for work and stick to what I packed
2. JOURNAL EVERY BITE
3. Hydrate. This does not mean coffee...this means WATER.
4. Get out and take a walk today at lunch time. Get out of the basement I work in and see the sun. Get away from colleagues and just rejuvenate.
5. I will not listen or partake in office gossip today. I will walk away. Everyone has their own story and I really don't like listening to people judge others. Not my circus, not my monkeys.
6. Earbuds in to tune out negativity in office if it starts again today. Kills my joy.
7. Weigh in and take the advice without feeling defensive. I blew it. That's it.
8. Gym tonight after work for 30 minutes activity, tanning and massage chair. (This is a maybe if I don't work too late).
9. Go to bed one hour early to get some quiet time and write in gratitude journal and read a few chapters out of novel.
Making my goals for tomorrow, tonight...
Just for Today/Wednesday
1. Pack healthy breakfast and lunch and stick to plan.
2. Journal every bite
3. HYDRATE!
4. Focus at work. Get my task list done! Stay on track. Tune out any negativity. Everyone is stressed. It's okay.
5. 30 MINUTES OF ACTIVITY TONIGHT!!! No EXCUSES!
6. Bed one hour early to get quiet time, gratitude journal and read to wind down.
Keeping it simple. My main objective is to get off my butt and EXERCISE tomorrow. *sigh*
Have a GREAT day!

Yesterday wasn't great, was feeling really blue after work so ended up drinking a ton of mulled wine and port with boyfriend in the evening. I think we'd been deprived of Christmassy drinks because I've been avoiding alcohol lately.... This was a bit of an emotional binge to make up for it!
Today's commitments -
- Log everything I eat
- ABSOLUTELY NO unhealthy snacks
Two small sweets...
- Lunch under 400 cals 450, but not too bad
- No alcohol
Rather a lot....
- Stay within calories with mini deficit Went over by a VERY large margin due to the quantity of (sweet Christmassy) alcohol consumed
- Meditate Didn't find the time or will to do it because of self pity
- 30+ minute lunch break
- Put yesterday's event out of mind in order to focus Didn't really manage that well
- Except for lunch where take the time to consider how to deal with it I did do this at least. Have the beginnings of a plan
- Focus on report and get it done - no faffing or perfectionism! Ish... I did get it done but was a bit perfectionist about it.
Today: no booze. Start to get over things. No self-pity!

Wednes
Its late in the day again, but still, not too late to set my goals for the remainder of the day.
1. Drink water. Remember, its thirst, not hunger
2. exercise -- already did 30 minutes on treadmill this morning
3. get some sewing done on xmas gifts1 -
For many of us, including myself, the holiday season is hard. Not only because of the hecticness of the season, but because, at least for me, it reminds me of all the loved ones that I have lost way too early. My dad passed away on xmas eve, my brother, who was just 53, passed away January 3rd, another brother, who was just 63, passed away on thanksgiving day, and another brother, who was only 51, passed away early Feb. So during the holidays, when families are suppose to get together, I feel the loss even more. And I watch my daughter, with severe mental illness, seeing no joy in life, and a struggle everyday getting through each day. So I try to cheer her up, without bringing myself down.
So for me, to get on here everyday, know that even though all the losses, I still have so very much to be thankful for. And putting one foot in front of the other, no self pity, and taking good care of myself.
So I hope you guys will all join me - in helping each of us get through this season, without gaining a lot of weight, and even better yet, maybe losing. Or if nothing else, eating as healthy as we can, and being thankful for each day. As as a support system for each other.3 -
