    SO my goal for today
    1. enjoy mothers day dinner out tonite with hubby and daughter. :)
    2. enjoy the day with hubby -- he is going to take me out Plant shopping ---- I need more flowers for my garden :):) But did not get flowers -- but hubby bought me a beautiful plant for inside (and more gardening gloves!)
    3. log all food, and eat wisely :) Over on calories though, but mostly healthy choices.
    4. concentrate on water!!! This is something I need to really work on :/
    5. get back on here - be accountable! :)

    JFT, MOnday
    1. log all food
    2. tiny habit:
    after shower ... take vitamin
    after breakfast ... fill water bottle, and drink
    after dinner ... brush/floss teeth
    3. concentrate on water. drink 2 glasses with each meal
    4. only 1 diet pepsi --- drink ice tea. This will be hard for me, but I know I need to cut out the diet pepsi. So going to try to substitute tea (which I do not like, but I will try it!). Trying to get more water in.
    5. get back on here - be accountable

    JFT Saturday/Sunday Recap
    1. Keep it simple :)
    2. Be kind :)
    3. Log food :)
    4. Drink water :)

    It was a "bad" weekend - typically I'd unravel at my first off the rails encounter. But I'm taking this one in stride. My weight stayed the same Friday-Sunday, but I saw a slight increase today. Too be expected after eating at maintenance all weekend. I still made better choices than I would have previously - I indulged a bit but not every time. Reminding myself that "Just cause your popped one tire does not mean go slash the other three." Don't remember where I heard that but its so relevant for me! And actually it was a GOOD weekend! Family time - a rest day - and an unexpected visit from some friends.

    JFT Monday
    1. Meds AM and PM
    2. Be kind to yourself
    3. Log all food
    4. Stay in cals
    5. Eat lunch outside or with window open
    6. Finish final office moving tasks - empty 2 drawer file cabinet, consider moving job files?

    Just for today, I will be patient with the people who must enter my home to install something. (I don't like strangers in my house. I barely like friends in my house.)
