2) finish my gardening work I started yesterday
3) get laundry done
4) prepare mentally for hectic football schedule that starts tomorrow for son. Do not let myself slip away due to excuses of all the running I will be doing to get him where he needs to be. Make time for my exercise.
Yeah, met all my goals yesterday....
JFT Monday
1.) stay on 16:8 eating plan
2.) workout at lunch
3.) make left over chicken into chicken salad tonight when I get home after long day & late meetings
4.) be grateful for where I am at in the NOW
Keep rockin on everyone! We can do this one day at a time together. It helps to know other people are trying and struggling just as much as me.

Just for tonight, no more snacking
I am going to try to get up early & jog, it's so hard with my allergy med cocktail to crawl out of bed early0 -
Doing this one day at a time makes this more manageable. I've been stuffing myself with carbs today and I have got to stop. So, I'll start over tomorrow and set my goals. I desperately need to get off the sugar and simple carbs. I put that stuff in my system and I seem to just loose all control. Tomorrow I will not eat sugar or "white" stuff. Glad this community is here and offering support0

@wanderinglight I can recommend Head space as a meditation app. Free to start with and quite reasonable after 10 sessions in my view... :-)0 -
Hello, I've been MIA again. What a roller coaster life is! I have been struggling with depression I believe. Maybe a mid-life crisis. I'm at that age, and really am not looking forward to the hormonal swings of menopause. In the midst of all that, I did get engaged and since we've been together 9 years, decided to do a quickie legal ceremony and a bigger even later on. So Friday, I will be a Mrs. again.
Since the things that are out of control in my life are more than just diet/exercise, like my job attitude and my house, I will use this to try to gain control.
Just for Today 08/04
1. Pull dead peas and lettuce
2. arrange pumpkins so they grow standing up
3. vacuum house
4. meditate 5 minutes0 -
