Oct 25
5th pass day (I think)
Exercise - 15 minute MommaStrong, 30 minute walk
Tracking - Planned the day, adjusted the plan - and started out continuing to track as I ate extra but gave up tracking when it was clear I was over calories - and continued to eat
Calories - Over, but not by a huge amount
This was actually the first time I've gone over on a "normal" day while mostly tracking. Every other time has been some kind of a "celebration."
@Jana_2020 I liked your post. My trouble with my actual 5 year old and also with myself yesterday is knowing when to be kind and firm, and when to give in. My 5 year old has a tendency to collapse and say he is "SOooooo tired" when asked to do any kind of chore. And probably sometimes he really is tired and sometimes he really isn't? Sometimes the chore is really hard for him and sometimes he just doesn't want to?
For me, my cravings for food were really strong and my resistance to them was really low. Like I snatched up a cookie and ate it before I even thought about it. I couldn't tell if I should listen to my body's needs because I am still recovering from that GI bug and maybe need the extra calories, or if I was just using that as an excuse. Probably a little of both.
Hopefully today is easier.

Pass day #5
Did a three mile run.
My friend had a super bad day and she’s super pregnant and said she wanted cake… so I made her vanilla cupcakes with lemon butter cream. While I did not eat a cupcake, I had to taste the butter cream while I was making it so it hit the right “lemon” balance and I’m honestly not sure how to account for that given it wasn’t measured - it was just a taste here or there as I went - so I might not actually be over at all but since I can’t tell it’s a pass day. A pass day for a good cause. 🤗
Love the honestly and so nice of u to bake for it friend. Xo1 -

✅✅❌ all but the exercise. In the summer I can at least walk around the block a couple times in my shorts and t-shirt. I need to get a new mindset with the onset of late fall and winter. I'm reminded of the saying, there's no such thing as a bad weather, only bad clothes.7

Your message hit home @Jana_2020 so thank you for that 💛 Compassion and loving-kindness are so much easier for me when extending them to others. Myself, not so much, and have been actively working on this because it is getting in the way of my happiness.
I listen to some of Pema Chödrön’s audiobooks on my long walks. Two recent favourite quotes:
“The most difficult times for many of us are the ones we give ourselves.”
“It is said that we can’t attain enlightenment, let alone feel contentment and joy, without seeing who we are and what we do, without seeing our patterns and habits. This is called maitri—developing loving-kindness and an unconditional friendship with ourselves.

Exercise? No
Tracking? No.

It was not a good day for me. Hell, it's not been a good month for me. So, it's time to turn that around.
