    Just for Today (Saturday)
    • I will journal all food intake.
    • I will drink 8 cups of water.
    • I will do 15 minutes of cardio and 15 minutes of stretching and/or weights.
    • I will think before speaking today, as I'm feeling a bit irritable. I think I must have allergies to something in the house...woke up with puffy, itchy, watery eyes and headachy.
    • I will mark one thing off my to-do list.
    • I will eat more protein and less sugar.
    • Start over honestly on the Beck Diet Solution book and plan.

    Big challenges at work (new job/career/commute after a decade of working from home), being sick and dealing with the holiday season made last week a bit of a failure for me. Yesterday was the end of the holiday season in my culture...and my step-ish son wanted rosca de reyes, the special Three Kings bread. We have leftovers. :):( Guess I will focus on getting back on track tomorrow.

    TUesday, Jan 9
    1. log all food :)
    2. eat only planned foods :)
    3. carry my water bottle with me :) Doing much better with the water -- helps so much having a nice water bottle!
    4. brush and floss teeth after dinner to keep from snacking. It is so much work to brush and floss, so when I do this, it makes me stop and think about eating :)
    5. drink flavored water in the evenings. Something better than just plain water, and hoping it keeps me from snacking. :/ NO ..... but drinking plain water tonite!
    6. read simple abundance ... write in journal 5 things I am grateful for :)
    76. Get back on here tomorrow - be accountable :)

    JFT, Wed 1/9
    1. log all food
    2. be mindful of what I eat. Ask myself.... are the calories worth it .... and think
    3. when craving something .... wait 10 minutes..... sort out sock drawer. If I still want it.... then have it
    4. drink water
    5. get back on here ... be accountable

    @KareninLux - somedays keeping it simple is the best to do!

    Not only have I not been making choices to help with weight loss, I have been purposely choosing to eat the garbage and allowing myself to eat to much. Grazing plus meals has become my norm. I just haven't cared, food exercise whatever. But as of this morning I am unofficially up to 202.4 lbs (my normal weigh in is on Wednesday, so maybe I can make some smart choices to remedy that), so whether or not I want to care I need to start doing so again. So today
    1. Paper log all foods ( I didn't weigh out my foods this morning for breakfast or lunch)
    2. No mindless munching or grazing
    3. related to number 2, only eat the foods I brought at work.
    4. brush/floss before bed

    Still here. Jan was a bust. Initial loss but not much more. Just holding steady. Too much job stress.
    But I am still here!
    Today was a new day.
    Tomorrow is one too!

    2. Don't give up even though it's getting harder
    3. Lay off the chips
    4. Drink more water
    5. Stay away from those sweets
    6. I can do this 1 pound at a time

    So very sorry to hear you have losed a loved one. But you are so right ... going to the gym will actually help with stress, and your loved one would want you to stay healthy. You can do this .... 1 pound at a time. Hugs.

    1. Log food :neutral: breakfast, lunch logged; dinner not so much
    2. No unplanned food or grazing while cooking dinner, nope a little bit of both. It's a bad habit I've gotten into that is rather mindless and therefore is hard to make conscientous
    3. brush/floss before bed :neutral: brushed yes, flossed no
    4. foundation light day 1, :( Sat watching Olympics

    I think those same things again plus some chore stuff.
