    Fantastic thread Joan. SO glad that I've found it :) Is it too late to join?
    Its rather late here in the UK so just for today:
    1. I'm going to squeeze in an exercise dvd before bed
    2. Have a protein drink after, and
    3. Log everything I've eaten today

    Well after doing the ironing last night I failed miserably on the first of my two aims for the day

    Just for today, Sunday, I aimed to:
    1. Go for a walk with my sons
    2. Log all my foods for the day
    3. Have a protein drink

    I am pleased to say all 3 goals were accomplished, yay!!!
    I even managed to go for a quick jog this evening too. I can't even remember the last time I went for a jog but it was definitely last year. I'm feeling SO achy and tired now, but in a good way :)

    I love this thread! I think it is exactly what I need to keep me motivated. I will try to commit to three challenges for my "just for today" posts. I will have a mental challenge; a food/drink challenge; and an exercise challenge.

    1. I will accept myself as I am. I will think about improving my health, not losing weight or looking skinny. My worth is determined by my attitude, not a number on a scale or a dress size.
    2. I will plan my meals for next week today so I have time to shop and prep before I get too busy.
    3. I will get out for a walk today.

    2. Keep busy in the evenings to keep from snacking. I plan to sew :\ I did do some sewing, and trying to learn applique, which was more frustrating than fun. Ended up eating a protein bar out of stress, and then popcorn later. But I think with my long walk, calorie-wise I still did OK.
    3. Drink Water!! :\ Forgot to drink my water


    Just for today, Monday, 1/19
    1. Just because the scale was UP this morning, I will not let that lead me to eating unhealthy, or eating too much.
    2. Drink Water - remember to put a pitcher of ice water on the counter, and drink the entire pitcher
    3. Get out for another LONG walk
    4. Log every bite I eat


    Happy Monday everyone!

    Met goals yesterday...I'm finding this helpful as an end-of-day reminder.

    1. Do crazy-intense Zumba class.
    2. Get at least 15,000 steps for the day.
    3. Enter in my recipe for SW chicken soup and not guestimate on nutrition.
