My goals for today ~ March 11th
1. Type up 3 items at work
2. Tidy up the bedroom / organise it
3. Set up my new Garmin watch
Friday is my 'treat day' I can either chose to have a takeaway meal or chocolate & crisps. I'm just making as many changes to my diet as I can. Baby steps. I don't want to completely overwhelm myself- so I am eating healthy about 80% of the time currently.
I was just told recently by my Health & Wellness Coach that a good diet 80% of the time is a fantastic diet! You're doing awesome!3 -

JFT Sat 12th
- Morning meditation ✔️ 10 minutes... The kids couldn't stay quiet to 10 minutes. I had earphones in but it's hard to focus on the meditation when I can hear them in the background.
- Log all food ✔️ just finished it this morning
- 6 waters ✔️ 5 again, ticking because.my minimum is 4
- Exercise? ❌ Knew this wouldn't happen 😂
- Clean all pots ❌
- Get laundry away❌
So I did start cleaning yesterday, I got all the lounge cleaned, polished, swept and organised the TV shelving. Lit a wax melt so it all smelt wonderful.
And then the kids made it a mess again. It wasn't too bad, couple of clothes and dress-up items. But they had also got out the kinetic sand. My.lounge is covered in sand. I gave up at that point.
And plus I wasn't getting any help from anyone else in the house so I thought F it.
But today I've woken up with a full blown cold, headache, sore throat, dry cough and twinges of ear ache. It's like I've taken a frying pan to the face. So I don't know how I'm gonna ge my cleaning done today, I feel awful. Really awful.
Gonna do my best on goals today but also gonna make it easier on myself
JFT Sunday 13th
- Log all food
- Drink 6 waters
- Clean girls uniform and P.E. kits.

Sunday JFT 03/13/2022:
▪︎Rest and Refresh
Sunday's I do not like to post goals, etc. I like to take one intentional day off each week and that is Sunday for me. I still plan to complete my yoga DVD in my quest to regain control over my healthy habits. Then this week I'll be incorporating my BBL 4 week plan to kick my butt back into shape, Lol.
Thank you ALL for the support, encouragement, hugs, and prayers. I genuinely appreciate you all. I will stand in courage and not allow fear to consume me during this unknown time. Also, to answer the question regarding results; the medical group I am working with has a policy of immediate result availability. There is a chance I'll be able to see the diagnostic report even before my doctor. The online patient record gives me this access. It has it's pros and cons, Lol!!
Enjoy a blessed Sunday my friends!!🌷🤗🌷4 -
@BeIn2day Happy birthday tomorrow! I'm glad you had a nice time at dinner last night and took time to pamper yourself. We don't take time to have enough of those days, do we? :flowerforyou:
@Bex953172 I'm so sorry to hear you feel so awful today! I hope the girls and Ash will baby you today the way you do them every day, hon. Happy birthday on Thursday! Turning 30 is not a bad thing. You're still only half my age. LOL My 30's were better than my 20's, and my 40's were better than my 30's. I hope you have a very special birthday on Thursday. Do you have plans? How is Casey today? Is she feeling any better?
@BeIn2day and @Bex953172 My birthday is Friday! Three of us this week. It's a good week, eh?
@MLCTX I said a prayer for you immediately. I know the underlying anxiety of waiting for results all too well, and I'm sending you (((Gentle HUGS))). I like that you take one day each week for yourself. I used to declare Sundays as my OFFLINE/Tech Free day. I worked in IT, so it felt more important while I was still working, but I still find it healthy to take a break from texts and FB at least one day a week. I hope you have a nice peaceful Sunday.
I know there were more I wanted to reply to, but my brain's gone blank!

Happy Sunday! We turned our clocks forward today so it's already after 10:00 a.m. I've never been a fan of this daylight savings change. I know it's supposed to be wonderful because of more daylight hours, but I've never enjoyed losing an hour of sleep. Pretty sure I'll be dragging my *kitten* all day today!
I don't have a lot of 'busy' goals for today. I am going to try to spend time doing non-stressful things. My husband has the news on all day watching the events of the world. It's very anxiety producing and makes me feel as though I need to do something to help but I don't know what...so I pray. We don't have a large house so I can hear the tv no matter which room I'm in. I am thinking that today I will spend time downstairs in my sewing room and turn on a silly movie or something.
There is a fresh layer of snow on the ground this morning, with sunny blue skies. It looks so clean and fresh right now...how's that for putting a positive spin on winter? Soon it will be spring and the flowers will poke through and the robins will come back. I am really looking forward to spending more time in our yard this year. I used to love gardening, and I think I'm going to get back into that hobby again. I'd like to try canning tomatoes this year. :flowerforyou:
Have a nice day!
Just for Today:- I will make a 24H Plan and assess yesterday's 24H plan.
- I will drink 64 oz of water before 6 pm
- I will follow a plant-based whole food diet
- I will create a new Weekly Plan and assess last week's plan
- I will spend time reading my Bible plan and reading from the Bible
- I will spend time in self-care--Journal / Podcasts / Yoga or Tai Chi / Sew / Nap
- I will go to bed an hour early and take time to wind down by reading

I really enjoyed Nandos. Food was lovely. I would go back. I liked how u could get unlimited refills on the drinks. I felt exactly the same turning 30. Leaving my 20's made me feel a lil bit sad and disbelief if I'm honest. I was like okay, so I'm actually getting older. This is real. This happens 🤣🤣🤣 the time just flies. I can't believe I'm in my mid 30's now 😳 I still feel like 20 though, so I guess that's the main thing 😅
Haha 100%!!!
That's exactly how it feels. I've never been more aware of my age 😂
Yeah I still feel young.. and I look young still which is bonus haha I still get ID'd... Every damn time. I dread the day I don't get ID'd 😂3 -
@MLCTX hugs and prayers for you. I know it's a scary time, but remember over 9 out of 10 breast investigations turn out to be benign. keep your chin up!
@BeIn2day and @Bex953172 you are both mere youngsters lol. Bex I am twice your age too! Sorry you've got the cold, mine is on the way out now thank goodness.
Sometimes I wish I could shout out to all the young people trying to lose weight to Just do it! Don't be like me and reach this age wishing I'd managed to maintain the numerous times I lost weight in the past. Do it young and enjoy life fit and healthy!
I am sure there were others I wanted to reply to but I'm in a rush. It's 5.30pm here already and this is the first time I've been online today. No TV either. I'm limiting my time watching the news too @PackerFanInGB .
Had son and grandson here all day. We've had some fun, and also made progress at parents house. I met with a man today who will be able to help me with some of the big clearance issues I have. The burden feels a bit lighter now, I'm grateful that he was recommended to me.
Haven't logged today but think I'll be just under maintenance if I don't snack tonight. (I felt like crisps the other night but couldn't remember where I'd hidden them. Seriously, I couldn't find them lol)

Hour commitment - I won’t eat again until tomorrow.1
-
Sw: 310.7 lb
Ultimate Goal Weight: 180 lb lean muscle
2022 Goal Weight: 280 lbs
I'm late to the game, but I hope it's ok that I jump on board! My word for the year is accountable - Not only in my health habits, but also in all the other areas of my life. I started school on February 21st, and I'm determined to not let my being out of high school for 13 years stop me from succeeding.
Daily goal for tomorrow: Monday, March 3- Stay within my calorie goal
- do a chair workout
- call the rheumatologist about a steroid injection
- Meditate
- do the last 18 exercises in schoolwork
Goals for the year:I have dropped out of school before, because of my mental health and because of having to care for disabled family members, and I'm determined that that won't happen again. My main goal for the year is to make it through school, and in order to do that, I'm taking a holistic approach and attempting to care for my body, mind, and spirit every day. So My daily goals are going to look related to weight, but they're also going to encompass mind and spirit too. At the end of the year I want to see 280 lb on the scale and 6.2 miles/day on my Fitbit.
Commitment for the rest of tonight: No more eating and only drinking water!4 -
