    Just for today...

    I will log every bite...every morsel..every crumb.
    I will walk after work for at least a 1/2 hour.
    I will savor the day and know that I'm doing this for myself.

    Late again getting on here .. Did SO much better yesterday. :)
    So just for today,
    tues, 4/14
    1. walk tonite.
    2. drink lots of water to flush sugar out of my system
    3. log my food. I have been so bad with doing this. So busy, and just not taking the time. But I know it is so important --- so back to logging everybite I eat!

    It's so nice to hear this!

    Do you pre-log Joan? That can really help with staying on track and it is good when you have time constraints.

    3- Log said unknown dinner.
    4- Drink 4L of water/tea.

    Hey, this thread is a real inspiration! Good people all fighting the same things. So, just for today no post work stress relief bingeing! Been doing my exercise this week, but fell prey to the wine & cheese monster a few times and undid all my hard work. So frustrating. So for today - just today - no late night snacking! :smile:

    I am finally getting a haircut, for the first time in two years. Don't have much money and don't want to go to a Supercuts-type place, so I am going to try the Aveda Institute and see how that goes.

    No idea what I will do if I ever get to 200. :)

    My post might sound strange as I am in Australia so my numbers are in Kilos but i will add the lbs as well. Plus i am not struggling with diet or logging at all. Procrastinating other things...very much.

    I have lost 23.6kg (52lb) since early November last year, with 37.4kg (82lb) still to go and have now been logging all my food and exercise for 102days straight. (I have logged 55,000 calories of exercise and 162kms of walking since 5th Jan...wow)

    This thread might help me with other things i would like to get done and i might be able to inspire others that need to log or keep up exercise (I walk or swim 5 to 6 days a week)

    It is mid afternoon here and I'm still at work so my list for today is:
    45mins swimming (straight after work)
    Have Dinner
    Complete food and exercise log
    Complete 1 of the clearing jobs (7 cupboards to clean/sort out)
    Be in bed before Midnight (this is my nemesis...)
    Plan to wake before 8am tomorrow

    Let's see how i go!

    For next week and today - double edge goal

    1. Stop fantasing of blueberry muffins and strawberry waffles from Norms in LA (going next week for a week from London to see my family)
    2. Psyche myself that I can be on calories even though a whole lot of yummy food will be on offer and I am on holiday
    3. Log everything, weigh myself on arrival and vouch to myself not to put any weight on - bonus would be to lose some
    4. Not to eat airline food - although boredom will kick in on a 11 hr flight and I am sure and will look forward to all the food, good or not

    1. Today stay on calories
    2. Be active (gardening and cleaning)
    3. Reward myself with fruit rather than with cake
    4. Take back a dress I bought back to the shop - although I love it - it is not flattering on me - the term mutton dressed as lamb comes to mind
    5. Drink water

    Have a good day everyone

    Yesterday's goal was simple enough. Log all food. Accomplished!
    My goal just for today is to log all food and stay under my limit.
    Should be easier than yesterday because I ran this morning.
