Fell short on my goals, but I made some nice profit at my craft show so I’m still counting it as a good day. Going to bed with a headache that will hopefully be gone in the morning so I can chase my dream some more.3 -

I had a busy day, but yet enjoyed everything so it felt relaxing.
Tomorrow is cleaning day. I need to do that so next week when I decorate for Christmas it is clean.

People talking about not reaching their goals made me think about the Four Day Win book by Martha Beck where she said to choose a goal, make it 1/2 simpler and then 1/2 simpler again. It has to be something that is so easy to do and that you are sure you can do for 4 days. Then have a liitle daily reward and a final reward for yourself when you do it. For me, pretty emoticons usually were good rewards!
The idea is to start rewarding ourselves for all the good things we do. Of course the big goals are important but not as important as letting go of berating ourselves.
Anyway, her method really helped me! .. and over time it has allowed me to reach bigger goals.
Hour commitment - after my coffee stuff and metamusil I won’t eat again until DH wants lunch (might be an early lunch).2 -
Hour commitment -shared sandwich & chips & chocolate for early lunch. Now I won’t eat again until after 5 pm. No more dessert today.2

Back to work today after 10 days off. The break has been wonderful, but now the catch-up phase begins…2 -
The weekend was really good until it wasn't... Got all of my Christmas shopping done except for the in-laws & Sierra who we never know what to get anyway.
The rest of the family we got tickets to events they will enjoy rather than stuff. Pro Hockey tickets for one family, Blake Shelton Tickets for one family, Traveling Broadway Theatre tickets for my daughter, March Madness basketball tickets for my hubby, my niece we're giving cash because she is due with her first baby in January and you know how stuff just creeps up on new parents. Even did our shopping for our Angel Tree kid. I'll think he'll be excited to get his gifts this Christmas in addition to clothes and such, we got him a bike which was his wish item & his need item.
Sierra came home on Saturday and spent the day with us then went to see her sister in a play Saturday evening with her dad. She went to work on Sunday, came home had family dinner, and went to her room. We thought things were good. At about 11:30pm she came out. I could tell she was upset and she said she needed to talk to us. I knew she had been struggling with depression and anxiety since last year, but I guess I didn't realize how bad it was. She talked to us about it, for which I'm grateful, then she said she felt she needed to go back to Pittsburgh and that being home just wasn't good for her right now. I'm not sure why she feels that way, whether she doesn't know, or she just doesn't want to tell us. Either way it scares the heck out of to send her off to stay by her self when she is so down. She said they tested her for bipolar disorder and that she was boarder line, but with her family history that is a real concern. The last thing I want for my baby is to go through the things I went through. She's smarter that I was and is seeking help earlier than I did, but it is a scary disease. At the same time, if being here is bad for her, I don't want her to stay. She is going to come back for Thanksgiving day and spend the night, but that's all. If y'all could pray for us, I'd really appreciate it.
As for today I'm getting a little work done. The pets have a Vet appointment at 5:00pm and then I have nothing to do. Quiet time is hard...3 -

@pridesabtch: I wish I could only "say" I understand your concern for you daughter.. but I DO understand. Your daughter sounds so much like our daughter, except our daughter has been diagnosed with bipolar (actually schizoaffective disorder). Many times, our daughter prefers to be alone in her apartment, which worries me all the time.
You are very fortunate in that your daughter is talking to you, and expressing how she feels. That is the first big step. And it is wonderful that she will still be home for thanksiving, just not the entire time.
I am realizing with my daughter.. that she needs the quiet time she has alone. I used to worry so much about her being alone, but with someone with depression and anxiety.. sometimes being around too much people is very stressful.
Hugs to you all!
And wow .. I'm impressed with all your xmas shopping done already! We have decided to just give grandkids a $100 bill.. which I think they will love, and takes the pressure of of us.
@more_freggies76:
Thank you for your comment about setting simple goals. This is what I am trying today ... just one goal, and that is to eat just one healthy snack in the evenings.
I do great all day.. its the evenings where I seem to go on a eating frenzy!4 -

I missed 2 days again in posting goals... but I am telling myself again the 20/80 plan.. that if I am not perfect everyday... keep going. If I can get on here 20% of the time.. that is still better than giving up.
All day yesterday I could not reach my daughter. She gets even more depressed during the holidays, and her doctor has been adjusting her meds.. so it has been a concern. Saturday she came out, and was just sobbing in the bedroom. When I ask her what is wrong, she just tells me nothing. So when I could not reach her all day, I worry. Her car was gone.. and we didn't know where she is. As a mom.. I tend to think the worse... so by evening, I was all worked up and worried. She came out about 8 pm, and said she was ok... and she did seem better. (as my hubby says.. I worry way too much!) For her, each day is different. But when she left, again.. I mindlessly grabbed cashews and raisins. I tell myself this is a healthy snack.. but these kinds of mindless snacks are what is causing me to gain weight. I don't even know why I grabbed them.. just did.
So while laying in bed... I decided I was going to join Weight Watchers again today. I had lost 38 pounds in 2018 .. and reached my goal weight of 175 .. kept it off until 2020 when the pandemic was worse, and have been gaining again. I now have 25 pounds to lose. But.. I got online, saw it was $30 a month .. and that is online only.. no meetings. I could use that money for so many other things .. and I know what to do! I know why I am gaining weight .. its the mindless eating. I have MFP to log my food online! I have friends here.. so I decided to NOT join, use this platform, and vow to do better.
I like what @morefreegies said .. to set small goals.
So I got out a "new" 3 ring notebook... and will record what I eat in writing (in addition to here). And hoping this sets my brain into starting something new and different and I will be more committed. Its like @Bex said .. when I first started these threads in 2017 we were all so excited.. and motivation was easy. For some reason, it seems harder. So I needed something totally different .. ha.. as if writing it with a pen will help.. but I'm hoping it will. In fact, I WILL make it work.
My AIC is getting close to prediabetic, so my goal is to lose weight before May, when we have our yearly physical. So why not start now, instead of waiting until January like I always do.
So, my goals for the rest of today are just one thing
ONLY 1Snack tonite (If I need a snack), and that snack will be a apple, protein shake, or frozen grapes.
No nuts .. no cheese .. no raisins
Goals for Tomorrow, 11/22
1. log all my food .. both here and in my notebook
2. go to the gym
3. concentrate on water
4. pin xmas quilt
5. evening snack .. ONLY a apple, protein shake OR frozen grapes. NO nuts, cheese, or raisins!

Back to work today after 10 days off. The break has been wonderful, but now the catch-up phase begins…
Work went okay, didn’t make as much progress as I wanted. Tonight hormones are kicking my butt mentally (feeling down/anxious) and physically (stomach pain/weird cravings). Hoping the worst of it is over by Thanksgiving. Why do these things always happen at the worst possible time?
Talked to my mom last week and the plan was to do something low-key on Thursday - like just the three of us, and then having dessert over at my grandma’s house. Found out a few days ago that the plan has completely changed and now there’s going to be at least 15 of us getting together (11 adults, 4 kids/preteens), with a potential for 3 more adults. So much for low key 🫤
Looking forward to seeing all my cousins/extended family… but I also really just want this holiday to be over so I can have a few days of peace and quiet. I’ve been pushing myself out of my comfort zone a lot lately and I just need a break.
Sorry for venting again. Hormones really suck.

@pridesabtch - I’ll certainly pray for your family. It’s so hard watching our children struggle no matter how old they are.
@mytime6630 - I think writing it down will help. I may copy you again.
If I quit buying the junk I wouldn’t have it here to eat. I think that needs to be my first step.

@mytime6630 I have had to put things like nuts in a sealed container on a high shelf in my cupboard to make it impossible to grab a few. If I want nuts now, I have to get out my stepstool, and take the nuts out of a sealed container.2

Well the weight went the wrong direction, I know that it’s the chips I ate yesterday though.
@TerriRichardson112 - I used to only buy pop or chips if I was willing to leave the house to get it and then only a small bag or can. I need to get back into that habit again.
@clicketykeys - you still have a lot on your plate.
I’m piecing another stocking tonight. Was hoping to piece 3, but my imagination went a little nuts.

@Snowflake1968 I *do*! We're off this week and I've put in some hours at the Y and the library and we've made a trip to the used bookstore and the theater but I haven't been to the zoo or written any voter-info postcards and now there's more laundry to do but I can't get that started before it's time to head to orientation at Rock City because I just touched up my nails and I have to wait for those to dry...
Like. It's still on this side of manageable, but just barely!
(Also, minor grumpy note: how is it that the used bookstore had like half a dozen copies EACH of Dragonsinger and Dragondrums, but NONE of Dragonsong, which is the first book in the trilogy and the one we don't actually have a copy of?!!)1
