    I’ve been feeling in a funk lately too. I’m starting to think its February and lack of vitamin D. I can’t wait for spring. The good, the bad and the ugly - love it!!! I think I could do a challenge from this - the goof, the bad and the ugly...hmmmm.

    Good for you for finding some motivation!

    Well I haven’t quite found it yet (lol) but reading that article did help a lot. The part that really resonated....

    “Consider every thought you have as a suggestion, not an order. Right now, as I'm writing this, my mind is suggesting that I feel tired. It is suggesting that I give up. It is suggesting that I take an easier path.
    If I pause for a moment, however, I can discover new suggestions.”

    I am going to practice this because I think it will help a lot. There were many other parts of the article that were great too. Really changed my perspective. I needed that. I hope it will do the same for you!

    The quote I liked most is “At some point, the pain of not doing it becomes greater than the pain of doing it.”

    This is totally me right now. I feel worse not doing anything. I’m already starting to think about my pre-routine - what to do before bed that will make waking up to work out easy. Putting my workout clothes out so I can just slip them on, picking out my workout the night before so i start getting mentally prepared.

    @AustinRuadhain thank you so very much for that article. I found it extremely insightful and helpful.

    I love the articles @AustinRuadhain shares! I’ll be reading it on the train tomorrow during my commute 😊

    Aww! Thank you both @Kres567 and @sunshineplace !

    If you are left wanting more, Clear has an entire book called Atomic Habits, which I am currently reading.

    I wanna start by thanking you all for the comments.

    Well Mr. Anti-Doctor went to the doctor today. To my surprise the doctor was really nice. Basically I'm on cough gels and antibiotics. With that said I still do not know what is wrong with me this time.
    To give you an idea how miserable I am, i don't want coffee. 😨

    Hope you feel better soon!!!! Take it easy, especially if you don't even feel like having coffee!

    Friday check-in
    Calories: under
    Water: way over
    Exercise: 45 minute treadmill walk

    Well, I completed my first 18 hour fast and it wasn't that bad at all. I got a little hungry but it wasn't until I started to feel a little shaky that I ate something. The problem was that I took too much for lunch and my stomach didn't like that much food at all. So that is a good thing! Another good thing is that I've already drastically cut my artificial sugar addiction by at least 75%. Now to just see that scale start moving south! :D

    I will record my steps tomorrow. :)

    Steps
    2/21 - 15,296

    Friday check in

    I'm checking in early so I stop eating. I have a planned snack (zuchini & hummis) then I'm done and calories will be under.

    Water: under

    Exercise: 90 min pre-vacation walk (I put my suitcase in the room farthest away from my closet and packed). The bonus is after 90 min I know which shoes are comfortable enough to wear for a week.
    40 min trying on swimsuits. That should count as a workout.

    Tomorrow's plan: bake some keto crackers and pack some healthy snacks. I want to eat low carb while on vacation or at least lowish carb

    Friday check in:

    Calories - under
    Water - equal parts water, coffee, again
    Exercise - 10k steps via walking
    Goal for weekend: behave!!

    I love your goal for the weekend! I need that goal too!

    @Jactop I have got to remember to buy some zucchini. I forgot how good that is raw.

    Friday check in....

    The good....I’m checking in. Water intake was stellar and I tracked every last morsel.
    The bad...didn’t get as much activity as I would have liked but 12,896 isn’t that bad.
    The ugly...My calorie intake was way high.

    Goals for tomorrow. Exercise, water, track and check in. Or as @broncobuddee put it, behave. Lol
