Today I will:
Stay 2 steps ahead of my cravings.
Drink 8 + cups of water.

Walked 60min this am-done!
Be patient with others-breath.
Go to bed by 9:30.

May 15. Today I will:
*Plan ahead for cocktail party I am going to tonight.
planned but had epic fail at party...alcohol is sinful...note to self...alcohol makes me want to eat poppers!!!!
*Log all food
* drink extra glass of water 3x a day 11,2,5
* walk 10,000 steps almost...9700 is good enough
* aerobics class at gym
Plan in place but plan not implemented correctly. But it was just one 2 hour period so in the scope of things I can move forward. In the past I would have not gotten back on track but my mindset is different now.
May 16th
*today I will log food and stay within limits
*7000+ steps
*be kind and forgiving of myself and not dwell on failures
*drink my water0 -
Just for today I will not let Saturday night derail my calorie goal. Just for today there will T-storms all night so after work I will not make any excuses and get on my stationary bike for at least an hour. Just for today.0

- Clear all work by 1pm so I can enjoy the rest of my weekend ☺
- get my gardening done: After going to garden centre, build the 'fruit cage', plant veggies and sweet peas, weed beds, tie back the raspberries. This will count as my exercise for the day ☺ mostly done
- Hit calorie goal0 -
Didn't hit calorie goal. Had a completely pointless choc ice (I wasn't even hungry!!) after lunch. And chose to enjoy a couple of beers and wine this evening as my one completely kick back thing all weekend. Without the choc ice I would have hit target.
Learnig: Really, really check if I want/need a 'treat' before eating it. If it do... thoroughly enjoy it, rather than eating it without savouring and just wasting calories!0 -
Sunday's goals:
- relax and enjoy the day/my weekend before the insanity of next week working in France (3 x 14 hour days with clients AND speaking French) starts. Rest!!!
- Finish my gardening. ... I'll so enjoy the result!

Yesterday's goal, drink my water target. Achieved.
Today's goal: Not to go above my calorie limits (always struggle at weekends)
Epic fail. All went really well until the evening, damn you alcohol!
Still, got a loss on the scales this week so it's all good.
So, just for today, I will stay within my calorie goal.

I hope you have a safe but wonderful trip. It sounds all business but I hope you get to enjoy it all the same.0 -
Last night a good neighbor brought over some cupcakes that were left over from a meeting. I really didn't want to eat them since I've been limiting processed foods & sugar but I broke down & ate 1. I tracked it & now I'm moving on. Trying to stay focussed on making healthy choices for the long haul.
Today I will:
Preplan supper instead of scrambling to throw it together.
Track everything.
Focus at church.
Have a healthy lunch & pack a good snack for everyone.
Take family kayaking.
Get ready for the week.
Be grateful!
Enjoy your Sunday everyone.

So, so true... I never learn! Not only calorie packed, but kicks down willpower like an invading army.
I have absolutely no idea if I met today's target of staying within calorie goals, did Two Hours in the gym and about 4 Hours of garden clearing so I think I'm OK but can't verify it.
I've dug out my Bluetooth HRM now so can keep a closer eye on everything. (I love gadgets!)
