Hi Everyone,
I keep doing the same thing, I do really well all day, make healthy choices, eat sensibly and then throw it all away right at the end of the day. What a muppet! I'm feeling pretty frustrated at the moment. I don't have an excuse, I'm just not being discaplined enough at the moment. Any way, enough, no point beating myself just have to try harder.
Tuesdays goals:
1. Under on calories. With out fail.
2. Shred, walk & something else
3. Plan meals for the week.
4. Early night.
Hope you all have a lovely day.

May 2 goals:
1. Water.--Yes.
2. Log my food!--Yes! AND I'm under (by 15 calories! LOL!)
3. AM workout.--Done.
4. Bed by 9:30.--Yes.
So, I did not do another workout yesterday--unless you count picking up the cracker crumbs the my grandson got all over the carpet! Do his parents REALLY not see those?
Anyway--mentally it wasn't a good day--I felt cranky and depressed most of the day--which doesn't help with my emotional eating tendencies. BUT!!! I stuck to healthy choices and stayed within my calories (and, more importantly, carbs) and feel a lot better this morning!
Welcome to any newbies I missed. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: This has become my absolutely favorite thread!

3) 30 minutes of cardio
