    Just for today, I will:

    1. Remind myself that peer pressure can be a good thing. When I attend a holiday dinner with my friends tonight, I will stay close to friends who don't overindulge. I will tell them my goals and ask for their support.
    2. Drink extra water, especially right before dinner. If my tummy is full of water, there'll be less room for turkey gravy!
    3. I will head outside for a walk today.

    Just for Today January 1 I will

    1. log everything I eat :)
    2. take a walk. Anything is better than staying on the couch all day :) Not very far, but a walk anyway.
    3. come back here and report how I did :) Yep, here I am.

    Now for January 2. Just for today I will

    1. Really enjoy being with my family
    2. take a walk
    3. log everything I eat

    Today is the day my family is getting together to exchange gifts and spend the day together. It is at my house, so I need to focus on visiting and enjoying, not trying to make everything perfect. Even though I want everything to be perfect, I know that focus is how I make myself crazy and miserable. Enjoyable, comfortable and good enough is the plan.

    01/02 Just for today:

    1. log everything I eat
    2. do 5 minutes meditation
    3. "let it go" - not being able to keep a spotless house does not make me a bad person. I am not the only person living in this house and the only one working full time, I cannot do it all.

    What a great idea- I tried to do something like this with my husband, just verbal accountability but it got overlooked on many occasions and eventually was forgotten about.

    Just for today-
    I will drink 100oz of water
    I will minimize my snacking (not have any of the candy on the "freebie" table near my desk)

    1. DO a minimun of 20 minutes of exercise, whether it be ellipitical, walking, or anything! :) Got in a small walk, but after just being sick for a week, this is at least a start!
    2. Focus on 8 glasses of water :) DONE!
    3. Log everything I eat! :) Even logged my mindless eating a handful of M&Ms
    4. Keep my sugar grams within MFP guidelines :) I was over by about 7 gms, but much better


    1/2/15
    Just for Today...
    1. I will remember that sometimes I mistake THIRST for HUNGER. Drink a large glass of water, and wait 10 minutes before I go and get something to eat.
    2. Still not feeling all that great, but I will try and do at least 20 minutes on the ellipitical
    3. Concentrate on drinking WATER WATER WATER!!!



    I enjoy SO much reading everyone's posts! Thank you all -- keeps me coming back and staying on track one day at a time!
