@mari_moulin try and think of your depression more as your just in a funk. When I was at the branch and I was being consumed by depression. I thought of it like that my coworkers at the main office saw it too. When I decided to say over and over its just a funk and its going to pass. It seemed to not have as tight a grasp on me. I was once told you take things one day at a time and if that's too hard go for an hour . I was really sick and ruptured my stomach except according to my husband he was sicker. I was literally counting minutes. My husband no longer says he is ever sicker than I when I ask for help. LOL.
Exercise is done
We have rain in our forecast for the week

@2020pinktogo Great job on your goals. I like the idea of how to handle depression. I go through it sometimes. My big sister gets it way worse than me though. It makes me feel helpless.
@Skipper111 Sorry things were crazy, but great job staying mindful.
I think yesterday was a good day for me. Except my focus at work. Some days I really dislike my job. After work though, I went home and cleaned the kitchen, living room, my bedroom, did the laundry and made yummy potato soup for dinner.

@jdelaroy - awesome job yesterday! You did very well! Sorry about your job, just remember we all have days where we don't like our jobs 1 -
Good morning all!
Yesterday I was pretty productive at work. Most of my paperwork is done, so I have lots of time to just move product around & clean things up. DH has made a mess of the store. It is very frustrating. In his defense, we have too much stock because because once the pool season hits it sells fast, but he has changed how he wanted to organize things 4 times & has just left partial displays so product is EVERYWHERE. Sometimes it is really challenging working with your spouse. I absolutely have to make an effort to work through more of next winter so that in the spring everything is how I want it, nice & organized. This winter I went in just enough to almost keep up with paperwork. I have to get better. I am going to set reminders on my phone to remind me that I need to work December-February.
Goals for today:
-Continue to organize parts room & chemical area at store
-organize my dresser
-eat within calorie limit & macros
-work 6hrs
Weekly goals:
-exercise 5/7 days (0/7)
-eat at calorie goal 6/7 day (1/7)
-parts area & chemical area of store organized (getting there!)
-bedroom deep clean
-work 35hrs (7.5/35)
@carlsoda : I hope you get your run in tonight! the weather here is miserable so no run for me!

@lpeltenburg I can imagine it could be challenging working with a spouse. I could never do it with mine lol You have clear goals and will smash them!
@mari_moulin I do hope you are feeling better, I understand how difficult it can be. If it persists please don't be afraid to see your family doctor. Don't let it grow and keep you down, there is lots that can be done. If it is not chronic I do find getting outside in the sun, being with pets and just going for a walk can help. Something very soothing about nature.
Met my goals yesterday, and that was my "laziest" of nights for this week. Plus dropped .6 of my 3 lbs gain so hopefully that continues this week. I want back to wear I was just before Easter.
Today's goals:
20 min cardio - done
eat to plan
stay under calories
paddock clean up
start packing up office and finish hall
Have a wonderful day everyone!0 -

@Kendra2427 Good job on meeting your goals yesterday & making progress towards your gain! That's always an awesome feeling!
I've been busy & not able to check in. I'm doing pretty good with staying on my goals. Even had a plan set for my weekly "happy hour" of eating & game night with friends. This weekend she ordered pizza, which I knew ahead of time & asked her to also order a salad. I planned my day accordingly & checked out the pizza nutrition info, & did some walking that day. It was nice to be able to enjoy a bit, yet stay within my calories for the day! Now Saturday was a different story, that ended up with unplanned margaritas, but I was able to get back with it on Sunday.
Goals for this week
Stay within or under calories each day
Journal/log everything that goes into my mouth
Exercise 4 days this week
Drink 8-10 glasses of water (have 4 down already!)
Check out some new recipes
Have an awesome day everyone!! We finally have sunshine here & no rain!! 1 -
Good morning flowers!!!!
@GrandmaJackie your success is very motivating. Nice going on the run and bravo for all the yoga you're doing!!!
Yesterday was a good day. The training went great, calories were easy to fit in. I postponed my meals intentionally so that my last one will be very late and therefore I won't have cravings at night.
I made a separate list of goals for the week to keep my mind clear. I tend to put emotions over everything and sometimes it's best to see this process with a clinical eye and simply focus on the tasks at hand as if I'm running an experiment.
Today's goals are to duplicate yesterday: eat within calories/macros, training, chin-ups, steps, water and 8 hr of sleep.
Let's have a fabulous Tuesday!!!1 -
@catvlmack no, I've never been there, but tomorrow I'm going to Nottingham and Leicester till Sunday. We have two wine events promoting our wines and our wine region and we'll have some free time in between. Just looking for ideas on where to go and what to do
@danelutza19 well done on hitting your goals! You're doing really great and seem to have clear and achievable goals. Keep it up!
Well, it happened. My scale broke. It's still under warranty, but I need to take it back to the store and it's not really close so I'm waiting for when I have other errands to run in that city. I won't be able to weigh in for the 2nd milestone because I won't be home until Sunday. I'll just put the same weight in as last time. I'll do my best to keep moving while in the UK and try not to eat too much junk food or drink too much wine... Yesterday, I got on my mountain bike after more than a year! Felt so great, I burned more than 1000 calories! We went on a 2.5 h ride and the scenery was amazing. Have to do it more often!!
My goals:
1. Cut down on sweets
2. Up my water intake to at least 2 liters a day
3. Exercise at least 5 times a week
4. Lift/strength train
5. Work on doing 5 military push-ups in a row
6. Work on doing at least one pull-up
