    I have two goals today:
    1) Don't eat my WHOLE lunch (we're ordering out)
    2) Stay out of the M&Ms at work

    My goal today is like almost any other one!...make it thru the day sometimes hour by hour!...eat healthy,be happy and move more!....

    Also need to clean fruit, make a salad,fix dinner,clean the pantry and unload dishwasher!...it’s really nice having a husband that does so many chores around the house....with his RA he doesn’t do much outside, but he does stuff inside most of the day!

    I'm trying really hard to get back into the swing of it, I had a good deficit yesterday and 2 lots of exercise so my goal today is to have a deficit, do at least 1 form of exercise and bed by 10.30pm.

    I've also invested in new scales, I opted for the Nokia Body Cardio which measures practically everything! Hopefully all the new stats will reignite my interest and motivation, they should arrive by Sunday so looking forward to that.

    To Do List for Thursday, May 14

    Must Do List --
    Eat Mindfully & Drink 8 water & Log everything in MFP
    Do 15 minute Richard Simmons stretches
    Do 30 min chair yoga routine
    Dining Room -- declutter, vacuum, mop floor -- still decluttering

    .... bought a Trillium plant at Farmer's Market on May 2; need to plant

    Had a small gain after my indulgent weekend and it's still with me. Need to be extremely mindful of my food choices for the next couple of days, get in a bit of additional exercise, and drink even more water!! Hopefully that will help me to get rid of the gain. I'd hoped it would be gone this morning ... but no such luck. So, really need to buckle down ... low cal/low carb/low sodium food choices, NO snacks, NO coke, yada yada. Keeping fingers crossed 🤞

    HAVE A GREAT DAY Y'ALL!! 👋

    2) Stay out of the M&Ms at work

    I did both of these, PLUS I talked myself back into a workout when I had almost talked myself out of it.

    WTG!! Getting that extra bit of exercise in can be really difficult. Keep up the good work.

    .... bought a Trillium plant at Farmer's Market on May 2; still need to plant

    Had a 4 lb gain after my indulgences last weekend and a bit is still with me. Need to be extremely mindful of my food choices for the next few days, get in a bit of additional exercise, and drink even more water!! Hopefully that will help me to get rid of the gain. I'd hoped it would be gone this morning since it's weigh-in day ... but no such luck. So, really need to buckle down ... low cal/low carb/low sodium food choices, only popsickles for snacks, only 2 Cokes for the week, yada yada. Keeping fingers crossed for a loss next Saturday.

    Hang in there Y'all ... we CAN do this!! Just need to stick with the plan! Supposed to be partly sunny and in the low 60's here in Michigan. Maybe can get outside for a bit today; that would be nice!! Hope Y'all have a great weekend! 👋 😀

    Had a bit of a care-free weekend, shark week seems to have wiped me out for the latter half of the week. However made up for my laziness Friday by going for a 10km walk yesterday (all within our 5km restriction area). Didn't get much else done after that though :lol:

    going to try that 5.25 mile walk I did way back in March that I barely accomplished then by the skin of my teeth. I'm guessing it won't be nearly as difficult now :)

    That is, if the weather will cooperate......

    :smiley: yup, and added another mile and a half on top of it for a total of 6.8 miles in today! I am tired but it was also on the warm side. I'm going to have to take more water on these warm days, though!

    My Sunday to-do list largely was avoided, I did some steps, some laundry and prepared and cooked the chicken feet (which were delicious I am happy to report).

    I wrote down a list yesterday but didn't get around to posting it here, had a very productive day, lots of cleaning & food prep, sponsored by our good friend - caffeine.

    Well, our house has sold. So we have a sixty-day countdown to pack everything and find a new house. This is going to be a bit exciting. (wry grin)

    I have got the china packed today as well as a lot of flower arrangements, and the deity statues and the decorations and pictures from around the mantelpiece. Also ordered moving blankets so I can wrap the antique tables and such.
