    Also brought dinner leftovers for single co-worker who struggles at times. Made her happy & made my day! :smiley:

    I LOVE that you did this, Carmela! These are the kind things I wish more people in our world would do. What a beautful world we would live in.

    Beautiful quilt @joan6630! Absolutely love it! You do such beautiful work! Did you do all the quilting by hand? Do you have a long arm? Very pretty!

    @Bex953172 I love the idea of monthly challenges! I'm in!

    My BIL and his wife have been staying with us since last Tuesday so I have not been in my normal routine. It's been so much fun, and I have laughed harder than I have in such a long time! My ribs actually hurt! BUT, I really need to hop on here and get back into a routine. We took them to Kroll's last night and I hate deep fried perch and fries, and my hands are swollen today from salt and grease. It was delicious but enough is enough!

    Just know I've read all the posts up to here and I'm excited about victories and thinking of you all.

    Just for Sunday:
    1. Journal every bite
    2. Stay in the green
    3. Eight 8 oz glasses of water
    4. Prep for next week
    5. Meal plan for next week
    6. Tiny Habits
    7. Submit taxes and get bills paid
    8. Run my errands
    9. Evening ritual - Simple Abundance, New Day New You, 5 things in my Gratitude journal
    10. Bed early because it has been a very long week and I'm exhausted!

    Happy Sunday everyone! :)

    JFT - Sunday April 8

    Write in Journal
    Find something to get me moving throughout day

    Had a good night with the grandkids Friday night, Little Miss has learned how to climb out of playpen so I got lots of steps in putting her back to bed. I did my weigh in this morning down to 155.2 only 5 pounds to go and I’ll be at my starting weight the first time I was on here.

    I have to figure out a plan for today to move, I find I sit a lot when the family is here On Sunday’s.

    Goals for Sunday:

    - 8 glasses - yep :)
    - Log all food! - nooo
    - Just keep house tidy today - *sigh* it’s a never ending task.
    - Maybe walk dog as a family?- nope, we all just chilled out today

    Wow so I don’t know what’s happened today, I must of cut down on a lot of sugar over the last couple of days because today I went absolutely crazy and I can not stop eating chocolate, literally CAN NOT stop!
    I’ve ate enough now I feel sick (not in one go, just over the day)

    Really must learn from this, somehow?

    Will post new goals in the morning!

    This weekend has been a bit rough. Managed to keep up the workouts and had a lovely time celebrating Greek easter with the family today. But food wise it’s been a bit of a bust! I really feel like I need to be more relaxed about going “off plan” rather than deciding it’s a disaster and then writing off the rest of the day.

    I’ve said it before so clearly this is an ongoing issue for me. But if I’m going to truly make this work as a lifestyle, then i need to try and find some balance.

    Anyway, Monday goals
    - morning exercise
    - 3ltr+ water
    - Stay within calorie goal
    - Yoga
    - School uniform shopping with the kids
    - Check in with lawyer
    - Early night

    Have a lovely evening all. X

    PS Not done so well on the water so far this month but I am still trying and very up for joining in a monthly challenge!

    1. Attempt to log, even if it means guessing. Brush teeth before heading out.

    Rushing this morning so I'll have to skim through posts tonight. We had a busy weekend so I didn't even post. I need to make an effort to post daily.


    Walk w/dog in park. Sunny but cold.
    Grocery shopping.
    Plan out week ahead for commitments to reduce stress (that would lead to stress eating).
    Pork tenderloin tonight.
    Tracked Breakfast & snacks so far.
    Stronglifts today-week 2, workout B which are new exercises. Prepared to look like a newbie today knowing that by Friday, I'll be more confident.
    Meditate. 2x 15 mins each.
    Continue with decluttering. Set timer for 20 minutes.
    Start planning for trip to Canada.
    Read something inspirational.
    Aim for 9:45 for bedtime.

    Setting some a new goal-no snacking 3 hours before bedtime. This is going to be a challenge (but remind myself over the past year I've increased water, protein, eliminated sugary coffee drinks and drive thrus).

    My father has expressed an interest in losing 70lbs and getting healthier. I will do my best to support him & be helpful.

    Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

    When there's no wind.....ROW!
