    GREAT attitude! if you live in NC, like i do..... do it EARLY in the day! (forecast 102 today, yikes)

    You must be in the eastern half. I am in the Winston-Salem area and it is supposed to be 98 -a record.

    Yep. Raleigh. My poor garden is suffering terribly. I only water my favorite lovelies.

    Little lower temps today. But I think back to upper 90's tomorrow. The asphalt is so HOT. I walked a little outside early and did indoor treadmill this afternoon to finish up my 10,000 steps.

    Stay cool.

    I'm keeping it simple today.
    JFT 17/06
    1. Stay under 1200 calories. :) 3 days in a row! Is this becoming a habit.
    2. Pre-plan menus. This should help with No 1. :smiley: this worked well
    3. Drink 4 glasses of extra water and remember to log it. :smiley:

    The present is a gift.
    Be mindful of each moment.

    :star: Live! Laugh! Learn! Love! :star:

    JFT Wednesday
    1. log yep well paper
    2. brush/floss before bed yep yep
    3. cook chicken for salads, assuming I put it in the fridge. I really hope it's not sitting in the sink in a bowl of water to help defrost a little. Got home from work and the chicken was still in the sink, grrrr - decided not to tempt fate even though the chicken was in a vacuum sealed bag and didn't feel warm., not cold just not warm

    JFT Thursday.
    log
    ignore the headache
    brush/floss before bed

    Just for Today,
    I will mindfully experience the physical effects of last night's doritos binge and ask myself why i'd ever truly want to eat another one in this lifetime.

    I will log every single bite today. binge or no binge.

    just for today, i hate food. i love food, and i hate food. i also know it's just a feeling, i'm allowed to have it, and it will pass.

    here's to a healthier Thursday to everyone, including myself.

    well, i blew the weekend.. i continue to "start over" it seems... and my knees are hurting and it's 95 degrees outwside, so no running until this evening, which is when i will probably give up... Just for today, gonna stick to my known working strategies... slimfast, protein bar, almonds, water water water, vegies, and NO WINE!

    I know how you feel, by the end of the day it can be hard to have the energy to workout. Great job for starting over, one day at a time. I believe in you and I know you can do this. Start with baby steps and before you know it you will be running. I love to have a glass of wine at night too :wink:

    Feeling pretty blah about weight/food, etc. I have been yoyo-ing in this last "10 lb-to-go" area...down to 113, up to 117, down to 111, up to 115 (I am short and small-boned)...Any infraction on my eating discipline shows up way faster than during the time of my losing the first 35 lb--i.e., I never gained back weight while losing the first 35 lb!! Morning of graduation party, I only had 6 lb to reach goal. Now I am back up to 10 :'( . Post-party blues (and leftover food), I guess, too...So, I need to get remotivated.

    JFT 18 June:
    1. Stay w/i fasting calorie goal.
    2. Drink 4 pints water (starting now!)
    3. Go on 30 min arm exercise walk

    I have learned that feeling a little hungry will not kill me. It is a better feeling than that sick over-stuffed feeling any day.

    Sometimes what I feel is thirst and I have a glass of water and just wait until meal time. If I can't wait, I have a few unsalted nuts or 1 T of peanut butter.

    Can't believe these hanits have just become second nature. Am not going back to my old ways.
