    Goals for today:

    I’m home with a sick kid - just a head cold but she was up most of the night which meant I was too! 😊

    1. Stick to the meals I pre-planned
    2. Don’t snack because I’m tired and near the pantry
    3. Drink lots of water
    4. Try to get out for a walk, otherwise my steps will be really low

    Thank you, @UTMom81 ! I love it! :love:
    And as it happens, I was dancing in my kitchen last night (to my favorite twenty one pilots song, Trees). But badly compared to the chic people in this graphic! :wink:

    Exercise was 50 minutes on the treadmill

    I feel like I haven't been here in days! I've been doing pretty well but my weight is stalling big time. So, this week I'm going to try to keep my meals really simple and see if I can jump start some weight loss. :#

    Sometimes changing things up realy helps

    Exercise 11515 steps. I have the habit now of getting off the bus, and walking twice round the market square before getting my next bus. Ensures that some of those steps are in a brisk 10 minute stint!

    Hi @Kres567 ,

    Thank you! :smile:

    And -- sure! Top 2 things (this will be so boring, but it's true):

    1. Weigh and log all food and drink. I won't know what's working or not working about what I am eating if I don't log it.
    2. Meal planning and preparation. This included learning some simple meals that are healthy and easy, so I always have a healthy option.

    And on a related note -- I LOVE your Mindful Eating infographic!

    Two things I must get more consistent with.

    Question for you (and everyone else) - do you weigh and track raw veggies you eat through the day? I know I should but that’s the one food group I get lazy with - I cut them up and just throw them in a container. I figure I’m doing so good by eating them so isn’t that enough??

    I do weight them, but i can see why many peple do not. Some are so low in calories, so are not worth weighing, but others (such as potastoes) do have enough calories to make a difference. The main reason I weight them now is because I count carbs, and also if I let one thing slip, I may let other things slip, so I just weigh everything

    I do weigh all raw vegetables but I also think the chances of overdoing it on a non-root/non-starch vegetable is pretty remote. I tend to have 20+oz of kale, carrots, broccoli and cauliflower (combined) each day. Don't think I could do much more than that but the calorie count is basically negligible. On the other hand, some root vegetables and hard squashes - things storing energy - can add up amazingly fast.

    Hey gang!

    Yes, I'm still around F2F and Fitbit. :) I've had some physical challenges this month (horrific knee dislocation and a broken tooth) so, specifically with the knee, I haven't joined the last few Fitbit challenges but please keep inviting. I hope to be mobile again soon.

    Tuesday Check In
    Calories: over, but just a little (some almonds)
    Exercise: sore from strength training yesterday, so just walking morning and evening and at work
    Water: I’m telling you, buying this Nalgene 32 oz water bottle has really helped me drink more water. I’ve been over every day since getting it. I got the little insert that makes it easier to drink out of, too. Keeps it from splashing in your face.

    Goals recap:
    1. Stay in the green. :#
    2. 10 cups water. :)
    3. Walk for at least 30 min. Hopefully longer. :)
    4. No alcohol. :)
    5. Eat only while sitting down. >:) Found myself eating olives and almonds while cooking.
    6. Work on putting fork down between bites. :). I did use this during two meals today and it does help slow you down. I ate less at dinner because of this and drinking more water.

    Tomorrow:
    1. Travel after work, so eat carefully.
    2. Just do the best I can at my parents’ house the rest of the week. It will be hard.

    I worked from home last week. My home office chair was the easiest thing to get up and down in so I ended up parked in it all day long and working 12-16 hour days. The injury turned out to be a real productivity boost for my employer. LOL. Back the office yesterday with a pathetic hobble but getting better every day. Stay safe out there, northern members. That ice stuff is slippery. :)
