    JUST FOR TODAY!

    I am going to believe in myself, that I can change for good.
    I am going to exercise because it makes me feel better
    I am going to control myself, and not let food control me.

    I don't need to eat junk! I don't want to eat junk! I may have wanted it in the past, but not anymore.

    I really love scrolling up and seeing other people's daily goals. Maybe one of these days I'll randomly copy whoever is directly above me!

    But for today:
    1. Meditate
    2. 30 minutes of yoga stretching for back pain
    3. Keep sugar under 30g
    4. Log everything

    Oh I love this idea! I'm kinda late to the party this evening but this is how today went...
    o:) I made the commitment to my weight loss consultant to maintain for four weeks. If I lose well that's great, but I need to reduce the pressure on myself at the moment whilst still halting the gaining weight trend.
    o:) I spent time out with my husband, in my favourite place at the coast. I stuck with an ice cream that I enjoyed a lot rather than fish and chips, an ice cream, and hot donuts (which is what I would usually have)
    o:) I walked 1.71 miles with the hounds in 30 minutes. I started out wanting to walk a mile but my planned route wasn't quite long enough, so I ended up going a lot further. This is great as to my shame, my hounds don't get out as often as they should and it's important to keep their fitness up as they get older.

    So, my just for tomorrow goals...

    <3 I want to walk another mile. Anything more is a bonus, but the mile that will count must include the dogs.
    <3 I will pre plan my meals and snacks, which I will not scarf all of by ten am.
    <3 I will spend some quality time with my husband (we work opposite shifts most of the week)
    <3 I will not weigh myself. Being obsessively on and off the scales is detrimental.

    I hope you don't mind me joining in, I felt so inspired reading your posts!

    Great to see a new face, Colleen, or is it Pamela? You are doing well so far. :)
    @azulvioleta6 Sometimes you have to listen to your body and ease back a little.

    That late night snacking is a killer, Rebamae. Why does our resolve fly out the window? Sometimes I just have to go out for a late walk to stay away from the fridge.

    Limited computer access this last due to new job. I missed my July 15 date of 5% weight loss by a pound or two. I did hit it and then some yesterday though, which means I lost weight on the weekend. Hubby is on a get healthier kick as of this weekend, so it should be interesting. Despite my slow weight loss he said he thought I had gained and that I'm clearly lieing or messing with the scale. Grrrr. So my JFT Monday is get past his comments and get on board with his wanting to be healthier even if he claims it's just for my health.

    Good morning on this Monday! B)

    We had a real wind storm come through last night. There was an actual hook on the radar so we are thinking more than just straight-line winds :s We are very fortunate that we only lost tree limbs. All of the electricity poles south of us were broken for 3/4 mile. More down on south and east of us.
    So, that is my excuse for mindless eating last night.
