The car is definitely not OK--it may be totaled. I'm waiting for the whole insurance process to runs its course.
On the plus side, this gives me even more opportunity to walk. Uff--I did't realize how far away my credit union was until I had to walk there today to deposit a physical check.0 -

Meals not grazing - This one went pretty good, when I had a snack I had really thought about it and drank water 3. Record all food even if not measured - meh only like half successful 4. waste less time on the internet -nope not even good.

Facebook and MFP trolling not so much)

3. get in 10K steps
4. clean house

@saragirl2 and feistyjojo: I'm glad to see you both "back" (even though you have been on here longer than me, of course!) You really offer unique encouragement and inspiration on here, so may you receive some of that back at you, of folks saying--"YAY!!! Brush off your knees and keep going!" Hopefully, Sara you really enjoyed the vacation, and Jo--was there was something "fun" about the work experience (being around French people?!??)? Anyway, hope you both have a successful re-start!
I already posted my JFT last nite for today....so, Happy Monday All!0 -
Just for today April 27, 2015
This is my first day back to living a healthy life. I have a commitment to keep. This thread will be a wonderful source of inspiration when I need a kick in the pants.
Log every bite - no matter what.
Make good choices

Keeping it simple again. I have been so busy lately, both work-wise, and doing yard work. So I have to remember to take care of myself.

Just for Today 4/27
1. Log every bite
That is all for today. I lost my motivation and have to get back to basics. I was doing so well before I got sick. Cannot let something like that throw me off so hard.
Regarding: getting back to basics....
This was the topic of our church sermon yesterday. Our pastor related it to getting back to reading your bible but it really relates to any area of life where you are trying to grow.
He showed a clip of a football plyer who made a spectacular one handed jumping catch and then fell over the goal line onto his back. He still held the ball one handed with defenders all over him and he made a
touchdown. It was really amazing to see and the player won all sorts of awards and fame as a result.
Next we saw maybe 20 or more short clips of the player in high school, college and the pros at practice after practice after practice working on this exact skill. Over and over and over and over!
So here we are trying to improve our health, lose weight, exercise consistantly, and reach the goals that we are dreaming about. If we keep falling back on the basics, practice over and over the fundamentals and work diligently toward our dreams, someday in the future we will all fall over the goal lines that we have set for ourselves.
