    Hi All I missed the first couple of days because I just needed a break. I didn't exercise nor log but I didn't binge either. Sometimes it feels like I get to obsessed and when I do mess up it sends me on a downward spiral so I took the weekend to just chill and regroup.
    So just for today 3/4
    1) water water water
    2) eat what I log and log what I eat
    3) go for a walk this evening
    Good luck everyone!!!

    Yesterday, 3/3
    1. 30 minutes either walking or the ellipitical :)
    2. log everything I eat :)

    Just for today, 3/4
    1. 30 minutes on the ellipitical - since we are getting freezing rain today.
    2. log every thing I eat
    3. no popcorn tonite - find an alternative snack.


    I made it through yesterday without overeating. I started sewing chemo hats for the cancer center, and found that to be a great distraction. If I have my glass of water with me while I sew, it keeps me from munching! This also helps me from getting upset over things. Helping others is the best therapy - there are so many less fortunate that I am, and I have to remember this everyday.

    Our son lives in Michigan, so it is a 9 hr drive, but he was going to be only 4 hrs from us this weekend. Our daughter made it through 2 days of working, so we are happy with that, and right now, that has to come first. She cannot be left alone at nite, so our plan, if she does not want to go with us, my husband and I are going to make it a 1-day trip. Up and back in 1 day. We think that will work. She will most likely sleep all day from exhaustion of trying to work, we get to see our son and grandsons for about 4 hrs before heading back.

    But thank you all for the nice notes!

    Joan, I'm so happy you found a way to see your son and grandson. Plus your there for your daughter too, yay! Joan, you're an amazing woman to have so so much going on! YOU EVEN find time for yourself. Your such an inspiration to everyone here!!!!!!
