    You know how the day will pan out when your pour a cup of tea and the mug splits in two randomly pouring hot tea everywhere. What do you even do in that kind of scenario LOL. Its too early for this.
    @Bex953172 ... Good Morning Sister!!! How are you? I woke up and said ouch.. Lol…. My whole body hurts which must mean I'm doing something
    right. I barely walked the girls to the bus stop. Mary got out the thera rub
    And did just that.. Rubbed.

    Don't do that Mary. Don't allow feelings to stop your progress... Take a nap, then get up and beat yesterday's numbers...👏👏👏

    Recap W 9/26
    1) Walked dog before work / 3.57 mi 1:04:47 / stretched + washed some dishes = happy dog :smiley: & happy me :smiley: Because so dark when we leave house now, dog wears her blaze orange vest + LED collar, and I'm wearing reflective hat, LED vest, and headlamp ~ we're definitely visible! :D
    2) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work = Fitbit 14,068 steps, 250+ steps 13/14 (happy hour) & 42 floors :smiley:
    3) Usual breakfast, lunch & snacks prelogged / happy hour w/ former colleagues & there will be adult beverages ~ have previewed menu online & prelogged choices ~ not great choices since it's a pub, and meal plus beer will be almost one day's calories for me! But I won't fret about it & will enjoy time with my friends from another job. = Stuck w/ plan at pub, ordered Tuscany chicken panini which came w/ fries (and since I was busy catching up w/ friends, forgot to ask about substituting the side) & 1 pint beer ~ ate/drank everything b/c I was hungry. Net calories red 500 (est.), sodium RED (yikes), sugar green (wow), fiber & protein ok, 12c water. :p
    4) Enjoy hubby time when I get home ~ so rare for him to be home on weeknights! = So nice to be with hubby at home in evening! <3
    5) Unplug 9:00 :smiley: / FLOSS really this is so ridiculous :smiley: yay / RETAINERS ditto :smiley: / verify alarm, in bed & TV off 10:30 :smiley:

    JFT R 9/27 ~ last workday for me this week ~ going to enjoy personal day w/ hubby tomorrow :D
    1) Walked dog before work / 3.42 mi 1:01:09 / stretched = happy dog :smiley: & happy me :smiley:
    2) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work
    3) Prelogged meals (leftovers day) & snacks & have wiggle room ~ yay ~ stick w/ plan & net calories green / 12c water
    4) Evening: mail car payment check (can't believe I nearly forgot) / choir / read Sunday ads / meal plan & grocery list / hubby time
    5) Unplug 9:00 / floss (2 days in a row?) / retainers / no alarm but bedtime not too late

    @jeschepp I like your recipe and your For Today list with the check offs. I used to do run walk intervals and loved it. My doctor said no more running.

    That really sucks to have restrictions placed on something you love. Have you found other exercises you enjoy?

    Did everything but the peppers and staying green. Was running around so much today (I'm calling an unplanned power-walk my exercise) that I hardly had time for snacks at all. Till I made a Starbucks run for the busy bf. I caved....

    - drink 64oz water
    - meditate
    - pepper snack for real
    - no major sweet things to make up for my brownie/frappuccino splurge

    @maryrobinson40 Those days are the worst. Being in a funk and not knowing why. I have found the best thing can be to go to bed early and start tomorrow new. It will pass. Much love to you sister, and know we are here for you <3

    Today went alright. Not terribly stressful but also not terribly productive. No word yet on my PTO so we'll see. Excited for the weekend. I'm doing fall shopping with my sisters and apple orchard with my best friend. Thinking of all who struggled today-I see you, I hear you, I believe you.

    For today:
    Stay between 1.2k and 1.4k calorie range ✅ (counting exercise calories)
    30 minutes exercise ✅ felt up for a tough jog, inspired by my fellow survivors today.
    Track food and exercise ✅
    5 good groups ✅
    Water challenge ✅
    Gratitude: today I am thankful for creature comforts. Sitting right now in leggings and a cozy sweatshirt, watching GBBS and drinking hot tea from my Harry Potter mug :blush:
    Sleep log: bed at 10, up at 6
    Post here for accountability ✅

    For tomorrow:
    Stay between 1.2k and 1.4k calorie range
    30 minutes exercise
    Track food and exercise
    5 good groups
    Water challenge-80 oz.
    Daily gratitude
    Sleep log
    Post here for accountability
