    My February was a "maintain" month - hadn't planned it that way but that's how it turned out. Into day 5 of March, and though I am eating my planned meals during the day, the candy jar keeps calling my name and my activity has been low, so..

    Just for today:
    1) I will do my exercise activity as planned
    2) I will NOT eat any candy or sweets

    Made it yesterday and will do the same "just for today"

    1. Take a walk. While I need to relax, I do not need to spend the whole day sitting still. :D
    2. Log everything I eat and no snacking after 10pm. :) Logging is still a work in progress but I didn't snack at night. :)
    3. Keep in touch with my parents. Dad is in the hospital for observation after a minor fall. They do not want to worry me, but they only live an hour away, so if they need help, I can be there relatively quickly. :D Dad is out of ICU and OK, but confused because of the pain medications he is on.

    Happy Friday Everyone! Just for today I will

    1. Take a walk before work. This is the only way I will be sure to get it in.
    2. Log Everything I eat and no snacking after 10pm.
    3. Call Dad before I go into work. Now that he is out of ICU I can get through to him at the hospital.

    Have a Wonderful Day. And if you have been ill recently, I hope you are feeling better soon.

    Just for today 3/5

    1. log what I eat (even if it's not the best!)
    2. do 1 hour of power yoga and some dance practice
    3. Be gentle and loving with myself. I've gained a few pounds this winter, but I'm barely over my goal range, my clothes still fit and I'm still 20+ pounds lighter than I was at this time last year. I can get rid of those couple of vanity pounds with no drama and no self-loathing.

    So, I logged & I did my yoga and dancing. I wasn't always successful at being gentle with myself, but I vented at my husband, who gave me some perspective.

    And this morning, I was back into my goal range. Thank you, ToM, for making me nuts the past few days. :-)

    Anyway, for today
    1) log
    2) get to my yoga class and do my dance practice. Feel the meditation
    3) It's Friday, so have a drink! But log the drink, even if it puts me a little over.

    Haven't posted on this thread in several days because I have been very sick--so sick that my doctor asked me to voluntarily quarantine myself to my home. I have continued to log, but haven't exercised all week. I did get out of bed today and I will post some goals tomorrow, March 6.

    So sorry to hear you have been sick. We have missed you:) I was wondering where you went to. I hope you are better soon ((((hugs))))

    I'm adding to - just read someone elses post about mental health. This was rough yesterday - nothing to do with my diet - so "just for today"
    1) I will do my exercise activity as planned,
    2) I will not eat any candy or sweets
    3) I will count my blessings, not worry about the things I cannot control and breathe at work

    Ok so I didn't have soup for lunch - I had a jacket potato instead (with beans and cheese) and a snickers :( I have a cold and I find it really hard to be hungry and poorly at the same time!!
