    WEEK 1: 1 - 7 May


    I am grateful for NEW STARTS.

    So many of us waste our time and energy on feeling guilty about all the things we don’t do that we forget all the small triumphs we have every day.

    💡💡💡A friend in another group does a Done list instead of a to do list. She finds it more inspiring to see what she has accomplished, rather than what she didn’t get to!

    This month I have decided to be mindful of the positive in my life, and concentrate on what I HAVE achieved each day.
    DAILY ACCOMPLISHMENTS: 1 May:
    I will update this list tonight.
    • Mindful meditation
    • Get up: do Wake-up workout
    • Write/post intentions for May
    • Weigh/record weight
    • Short walk
    • Herbal tea/supplements
    • Plan/Log food for today
    Turning up is the ultimate success!

    JFT, Saturday, MAY 1st
    I cannot believe it is May already. At the beginning of the year I was under 200 .. and vowed to lose the weight I had gained. Well, its May, and I over 200. I need to work much harder at this .. mostly bad habits. This has not been a good year for me, and being an emotional eater.. it shows.
    JFT, MAy 1
    1. log all my food
    2. concentrate on water
    3. mindful eating ... slow down... wait 5 minutes
    4. No nitetime snacking .... personal challenge
    Thanks @beachwalker99 for the challenge idea! I am usually really good with my exercise .. love a challenge to motivate me to do more. This year, like everything else, this is on the backburner. Need to make it a priority for myself.
    I am also starting my own personal challenge of nitetime snacking and trying to lose 5# each month. I know I need to control my snacking this to lose weight. I eat healthy most days... my meals are OK. Its the nitetime snacking that is causing me to gain weight and not lose. I know once I get this better controlled I will start losing again.
    I'm also doing again the 5 pound challenge.

    I think that I need to set some longer-term goals too, so here they are:

    Six-month goals--due on Halloween:
    1. Buy new home and move
    2. Get house set up in a basic way, identify longer-term projects and plan them
    2. Get kayaks fully set up and get on the water regularly this summer
    3. Be consistently active/exercising 5 days/week
    4. Take/enjoy large trip (Barcelona in September) and weigh 250 by time of trip
    5. Weight=240 by 10-31-22

    Is anyone up for an exercise challenge in May? We could set our own goals (number of days, time, distance, steps).

    I'm supposed to get 30-45 minutes of intentional exercise 5 days a week, but I haven't been reaching that goal. A challenge might help push me to make exercise a priority. Anyone in?

    I am up for an exercise challenge!

    Ha .. should have been 120 minutes of walking .. not 120 miles!!
    And I just realized my trigger to eat .. worries about my daughter. She came out tonite .. and the first thing I want to do is go and grab something to eat. I did eat a handful of popcorn.. but I am going to stop at that.
