    Hey all!

    I didn't really post or do anything the way I'm supposed to do throughout the summer. So, now I'm back and trying to start fresh again. School is back in session so my daughter isn't home to bug me while I work. My husband is in the office. No out of town visitors scheduled through August. I have no excuse for not being back on the wagon. Since I've been more off than on for a while I'm putting really simple goals to start back up. I need to ease back in without being too crazy all at once.

    JFT:
    ☑️No coffee until 8am
    ☑️No food until 10am
    ☑️No food after 8pm
    ☑️Drink at least 90 oz of water
    ☑️Stay under 1800 calories
    ☑️At least 5000 steps on Fitbit
    ☑️Try to put a dent in work emails
    ☑️Dishes
    ☑️Make dinner (pasta tonight) for the family
    ☑️Don't forget to check blook sugars throughout the day
    ☑️Read at least 2 more chapters of Crane Pond

    @ryfit626 Welcome!

    @pridesabtch You sure do have a lot going on. I haven't gotten caught up yet, but it sounds like you lost a loved one. My condolences to you and your family. How is Gia doing? Is she doing well living with Sierra? Take care of yourself during these upcoming busy days!

    Yeah, my best friend passed. Gia is good, we have her this week because she got spayed. She is a very loving dog. First pic is at Sierra's apartment. She might be a little spoiled. Second is at my house, still spoiled.

    Just for Tuesday, 8/8/23
    * Make 24H Plan and Assess yesterday's ✅
    * Drink 64+ oz water ❌ 50 oz again. Why can I not just drink 10 more oz of water? Just do it!
    * Close activity rings on Apple watch. ❌ Short by 26 calories & 3 minutes of exercise.
    * Mom's for AQ video. ✅
    * Aldi run for fresh produce. Cut up cantaloupe, honeydew & watermelon from downstairs fridge. ✅
    * Podcasts. Journal. Bible Plan. Marco Polos. ✅
    * Admin Tasks ✅
    * Pick one thing off Joy List & do it ✅
    * Evening routine and lights out by 11:00 pm ❌ Dangggggggggggg. 11:30ish. I need to move this up because I've been way too tired.

    Habit Changes
    This week's small change is that I will eat at least four 1/2 cup servings of vegs/fruit every day. I will keep track by filling out a Habit Tracker every evening.
    8/6/2023: :) 1 corn on cob, 1 svg of fresh produce in Italian dressing (cucumber, peppers & onion) and 8 cherry tomatoes freshly picked from garden.
    8/7: celery & hummus. side salad for dinner with romaine, radishes, carrots, tomatoes.
    8/8: Melon (cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon), pineapple, blackberries. baby red potatoes, romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes.

    This week, I will do ONE THING every day that takes me out of my comfort zone. Pick any little thing and DO IT afraid. Answer the sentence... Today, I got out of my comfort zone by:
    8/6: finally wearing the strapless teal and black sundress hanging in my closet for 2 years.
    8/7: not snacking on our road trip - waiting for dinner.
    8/8: Worked in backyard, picking tomatoes and blackberries. I've been avoiding the heat so it did actually take me out of my comfort zone of the A/C. Yes, I realize I'm getting very spoiled.

    This month I will work on getting healthier by drinking 64 oz of water every day. I will do this by filling my pink 20 oz stainless steel container as soon as I place my coffee cup in the sink and I will have it by me all day. I will make sure to fill it two more times before 7 pm.
    8/6: ❌ Only 40 oz. Tomorrow I will fill my water bottle earlier.
    8/7: ❌ 50 oz. Better than yesterday but not quite there...
    8/8: ❌ 50 oz again. Need to stop this up on Wednesday! Seriously! It's not that freaking difficult! No more excuses! Get the 64 oz in, and get it in before 7pm so you're not up 4x a night using the bathroom!


    Happy Hump Day everyone! Today, I will focus on drinking 64 oz. of water before 7 PM. I don't know why I struggle to drink enough water. I tell myself that I don't like the taste, but water doesn't really HAVE a taste, so that's just an excuse.


    Just for Today (Wednesday 8/9)
    * Make 24H Plan and Assess yesterday's
    * Drink 64+ oz water before 7 PM
    * Close activity rings on Apple watch.
    * 30 minutes in sewing room
    * Home Care: Dust. Mop floors.
    * Declutter physical area for 15 minutes. Digital Declutter 15 minutes. Set the timer!
    * Podcasts. Daily Dialog. Gratitude Journal. Today's Bible app Plan. Marco Polos - watch and reply.
    * Admin Tasks - Financial stuff. Mail. Desktop. Habit Tracker for August
    * Pick one thing from Joy List & do it
    * Evening routine and lights out by 11:00 pm. Brush & floss. Coffeemaker. Dog stuff.

    14. Just for fun: Start sketching dragon on a pile of books, offering one to the armored knight, & banner that reads "Treasure should not be hoarded / It should be shared." Use AI for ideas.

    WFTY: Priorities. Busted my tail today (again!) but I got everything done that I'd hoped to. I have my first sub day tomorrow and I feel confident about leaving the classroom to others. It feels SO GOOD to feel prepared again.

    JFT Wednesday 9th Aug

    Log everything yes
    Stay in the green yes, just
    Foot exercises yes
    Back exercises no
    Only one snack 2
    Dog walk? 45 minutes

    Weather forecast says we will have 2 completely dry days so I need to do as much outside painting as my foot will allow. I really don't want to, I hate the prep work! I'd like to leave it until later, but we have had a very wet summer and there's no guarantee it will improve.
    I also need to go into town to collect an order this week, not sure when to go as there's a cycling competition on which has closed some roads and may make parking difficult.
    Can't decide, I'll just get off here and go and do ...something, anything!

    I did get moving and chose the easy win of walking the dog first, the dog is always happy to go out!
    Sanded and painted one side of the shed in the afternoon, and did a second coat in the evening. I also mowed the front lawn while waiting for the paint to dry.
    My foot was very painful. I've always used old trainers for gardening and painting as they get so dirty, I've finally realised that it's not good for my feet. So as much as it hurts (my pocket!) I've accepted that I should wear new supportive trainers for outside work as well. My "new" garden takes a lot of work so I'm outside a lot. (not really new, I've been here 3 years already!)

    JFT Thursday 10th

    Log everything
    Stay in the green
    Only one snack
    Foot exercises
    Back exercises
    Paint second side of shed

    Doctors appointment went well yesterday. Didn’t do much else that I wanted to. For the past four or five days I keep waking up at 4am no matter what time I go to bed. This morning it was 3:30am. So my energy levels are pretty low.

    JFT 8/10
    - Log food and water (really need to focus on the water)

    I had a rough couple hours yesterday when I just wanted to snack. I kept to some pretzels with cream cheese, allowed myself a diet soda, and got busy doing other things until the feeling passed. It was a close thing though... I really wanted to dive into the pantry. Stress eating is a huge thing that I keep circling back to fight. Maybe one day I'll stop craving junk just because things aren't going my way.

    This week's small change is that I will eat at least four different vegs/fruit every day.
    8/6/2023: :) 1 corn on cob, 1 svg of fresh produce in Italian dressing (cucumber, peppers & onion) and 8 cherry tomatoes freshly picked from garden.
    8/7: celery & hummus. side salad for dinner with romaine, radishes, carrots, tomatoes.

    8/6: finally wearing the strapless teal and black sundress hanging in my closet for 2 years.
    8/7: not snacking on our road trip - waiting for dinner.
    8/8: Worked in backyard, picking tomatoes and blackberries. I've been avoiding the heat so it did actually take me out of my comfort zone of the A/C. Yes, I realize I'm getting very spoiled.
    8/9: :( Didn't feel very good.

    This month I will work on getting healthier by drinking 64 oz of water every day. I will do this by filling my pink 20 oz stainless steel container as soon as I place my coffee cup in the sink and I will have it by me all day. I will make sure to fill it two more times before 7 pm.
    8/6: ❌ Only 40 oz. Tomorrow I will fill my water bottle earlier.
    8/7: ❌ 50 oz. Better than yesterday but not quite there...
    8/8: ❌ 50 oz again. Need to stop this up on Wednesday! Seriously! It's not that freaking difficult! No more excuses! Get the 64 oz in, and get it in before 7pm so you're not up 4x a night using the bathroom!
    8/9: ✅

    Hi everyone! Hope everyone is doing well. I'm not feeling great today, so lying low today. My only real goals are to drink all the water and go to bed on time, but I want to keep accountability going so here I am.

    @Snowflake1968 I am SO sorry. Gentle hugs to you and your family, my friend. :heart:

    @pamperedlinny When you learn the key to stop stress eating, please share with me! It is my downfall. I eat for happy, sad, bored, angry, stressed... But at least we are aware of it and can work on watching for it...

    @clicketykeys Glad you have some breathing room finally!

    @pridesabtch Gia is adorable! My mom has a goldendoodle named Honey. She's 8 years old now and is like a bit puppy. So cute. I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your best friend. My condolences to you and all who loved her. :'(

    Just for Today
    • 24H Plan & Assess
    • 64 oz water
    • Bedtime routine - lights out ON TIME tonight

    Habit Changes
    This week's small change is that I will eat at least four different vegs/fruit every day.
    8/6/2023: :) 1 corn on cob, 1 svg of fresh produce in Italian dressing (cucumber, peppers & onion) and 8 cherry tomatoes freshly picked from garden.
    8/7: celery & hummus. side salad for dinner with romaine, radishes, carrots, tomatoes.
    8/8: Melon (cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon), pineapple, blackberries. baby red potatoes, romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes.
    8/9: lettuce. corn on the cob, melon variety, pineapple, blackberries, tomatoes.

    This week, I will do ONE THING every day that takes me out of my comfort zone. Pick any little thing and DO IT afraid. Answer the sentence... Today, I got out of my comfort zone by:
    8/6: finally wearing the strapless teal and black sundress hanging in my closet for 2 years.
    8/7: not snacking on our road trip - waiting for dinner.
