    3. Drink enough water
    4. Reduce sugar in tea & coffee. Use stevia instead

    RECAP Monday 12/3/18
    Hit 10,100 steps. Actually hit 11,796 B) . I’m going to up my step goal to 11,000 when I do cardio in the mornings.
    Give myself credit: :/ I’m trying but it's really hard to remember.

    JFT: Tuesday 12/4/18
    Hit 9,000 steps. Today's workout had very little steps so I'm challenging myself to make more than the 8,000 that I typically make on these type of days. Not sure how it will turn out but I'll try.
    Give myself credit.

    We have our staff holiday party today and I'm soooo looking forward to the Kentucky Derby pie! It's my favorite pie in the whole wide world!. I'm not going to restrain myself but I do want to listen to my body and see if it may tell me one piece is enough. It'll be interesting. :D

    Y'all have a great Tuesday!

    Had an OK day yesterday, I am so tired for some reason. I'm not sure if it's just the dark evenings or what, but I feel so tired. I have to go do laundry this week and I'm really trying to decide if I should just buy a clothes drying rack and do a load a day when needed. It is just hubby and I so we really don't have a lot of laundry and if I need to do a big bunch I could still go to the laundromat. My only concern, is I remember what clothes felt like from the line and I didn't like the feeling, maybe if I used fabric softener too???? I really don't want to trudge to the laundromat but we can't upgrade our electrical panel right now so I can't run a dryer.

    I have brought some ornaments with me to work on today, I'm hoping I have a chance to get them finished. I was supposed to meet a friend for lunch but she has had to cancel. It helps keep my calories in check cancelling, but I will miss seeing her.

    Thought I'd check in to let you know that our staff lunch went super! I kept on track with the food but.....I was so concerned about people taking the derby pie that I rushed through lunch; forget about eating slowly and mindfully! It really was an attack of FOMO and even though I was aware of what I was doing, I couldn’t stop myself :s . It's amazing how those FOMO instincts work!

    I took a good sized piece of pie and also rushed through it but did not have a second serving :) . Sooo, those demons still are haunting me but I feel that bit by bit, my relationship with food is changing. Next time I have something special for my palate, I plan on breathing deeply and really savoring the food instead of rushing through it no matter what! I also plan on limiting my portion b/c it was a big piece of pie :D.

    I don't regret anything even though I could have enjoyed my food more had I not been anxious but this is a learning experience and journey. I'm glad I'm here with y'all and have you as my coach! Thank you for reading me and keeping me accountable! <3.

    @Snowflake1968 I hope you get some rest and TLC. Sunshine and lots of energy your way <3

    So I managed to get on this morning before work to post my goals. I didn’t get a chance to update about yesterday.

    The DH and I had a blast making cookies and decorating my parents house. The afternoon/evening wasn’t so great. The DH had a couple of tantrums because some people are stupid. Lol. He has a temper but he has never really directed it at me. He was in therapy for it last year but we ended up just stopping because we couldn’t afford it. I think it may be time to get him back into it. We stopped by the store he is hoping to be transferred to when he goes back to work. His old manager is there and said the main thing that is making him hesitant to have him go there is his temper. He’s never rude to customers but if there is an employee who does something stupid he will let them know. But this manager knows how hard of a worker that my DH is so we have a few months for him to learn what he needs to control it all.

    I may not be spending the evening with the DH tonight though. D is putting together baskets to auction off at the annual Boy Scout Christmas Auction that my Dad’s troop holds. It’s the main fundraiser for the troop. It’s really awesome and it’s next week. So I may be helping her tonight. Lol. I have to do another round of baking on Saturday but a small one this time. Just one kind of cookie. I am known for my awesome Peanut Butter Blossoms. They are a basic peanut butter cookie with a Hershey kiss in the middle. They are amazing and one of the cookies that I binged on last night. This time they are going to go right into the packaging and not coming out. Lol. I’m glad that I can’t bake them at home. That would be a major problem. I have no self control…hence the binge. Lol.

    Anyway, there’s less than an hour of work left so I’ll post this and do my end of day stuff.

    I’ll try to get back on tonight.

    3. Class 2-3: Present Machiavelli projects. Reflection 45. WM ch 2. Add to class website; update class websites. Need to practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me).

    I was an adult taking a computer course before I finally had someone explain this to me that made sense. I still question it every time I say/write it though.

    What I generally do is practice identifying compounds, then hone in on compounds that use pronouns once they're good with compound concepts. Then, if you can drop the non-pronoun part of the compound, you can generally tell by sound which it should be:

    My brother and ___ went to the game. Leave off the 'my brother' and it's pretty clear that you want 'I' not 'me.'
    That was a gift from my brother and ___. Leave off 'my brother' and it clarifies it that you want 'me.'

    Sometimes even when it's grammatically correct, it sounds wrong, just because it's not a structure that's used as often. One example that has really stuck with me was from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, where Mr. Beaver hears noise outside their home while the Pevensie children are hiding there, and he goes out to check and the sentence is something like: "It's all right! It isn't her!" he said, ungrammatically.

    Sorry! hahaha I find this interesting, and I can go on and on XD

    Seems quiet on the boards today, hope everyone's doing okay. I have been exercising consistently in winter guys! I have found indoor biking (I have a trainer I fit my bike into) and doing HASfit youtube videos is working for me. The HASfit are at the top of my challenge level, but most moves have an adjusted move I can do. A good day overall, and the rest of today is just for loafing-YAY!

    Yesterday's commitments:

    - Log everything I eat :smile:
    - Stick to food plan :/ I ate some chocolate at work as was forcing myself to do some work that I REALLY didn't want to do (re-running those incorrect numbers that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago). I felt I needed chocolate to push through, which is probably not true. However the chocs were only tiny (130 kcals total)
    - Be in the green :smile:
    - 4 bottles water :smile:
    - No alcohol :smile:
    - Run to work (even though it's cooooooold! :#) :smiley: And it was my fastest work run in a while! I think it was combination of getting fitter and wanting to get warm....

    - Savour every bite :smile:
    - No eating whilst standing :smile:
    - Give myself credit! :neutral: Sometimes
    - Differentiate between hunger, desire and craving :neutral: Didn't really come up, unless you count the desire for chocolate and in that case I was pretty clear that it was desire and decided to eat it anyway...

    - 45 minute lunch break :smile:
    - Pick up prescription/ buy tights/ insoles :neutral: 2/3 - didn't get the insoles, need to pick up today (inside of boots is worn out so uncomfortable to walk, not good for increasing steps!)
    - 2+ of French podcast, article, book :smile:
    - Finish work at 7pm latest :neutral: 7.15
    - Read Beck Diet Solution :/ Ran out of time
    - Gratitude journal :smile:
    - Lights out by 11 :smile:


    Today's commitments:

    @jeschepp Thanks for the tip on the videos! I will look for those - I do a DVD at the moment (Davina) but would be good to try something else as I've been doing mine for a year now! (That said, it still makes me hurt in the two days after...)

    @Faebert Well done for not overeating when tired! That is super impressive - I invariably crave stodge and fat when I'm super tired and it's very hard not to give into it... You should be very pleased with yourself!

    Tuesday Status:
    1. Walk for 3 km minimum X
    2. Do sudharshana Kriya X
    3. Do not spend more than 30 bucks on food - Done
    4. Use stevia in tea & coffee - Done
    5. Be within the calorie limit - Way over limit
    6. Be mindful of volume of my voice. Avoid situations that are argumentative in nature. Get away from it. And don't take it into heart if I do get into such situations & when people talk behind my back. (I live in shared accommodation like a hostel, so often there are disagreements) - X increased my voice thrice when speaking to mother.

    Wednesday JFT (05.12.2018):
    1. Walk for 3 km minimum
    2. Do sudharshana Kriya

    6. Be mindful of volume of my voice. Avoid situations that are argumentative in nature. Get away from it. And don't take it into heart if I do get into such situations & when people talk behind my back.


    Things I need to work on gradually:
    1. Be consistent in exercising
    2. Work on saving money
    3. Drink enough water
    4. Reduce sugar in tea & coffee. Use stevia instead
    5. Be within calorie limit & create a deficit
    6. Learn something w.r.t work everyday

    @snowflake1968, I say get the clothes-drying rack. I used this method for MONTHS; much easier than hauling everything to the laundromat.

    I hope you have a functioning dryer soon though. :)
