1. Try not to eat too much. I am keeping to healthy options and small portions from the clinic menus. The food is delicious.

Saturday's goals
- be within 10% of net calories
- get 3 jobs from my list done

Over on calories by 20%. Forgot I'd had 30g of muesli as a pre - supermarket snack... didn't remember till just now after finished eating and logging for day (would have been in line with JFT goal otherwise). At the same time am pleased with some of my decisions today:
-I realised I actually Didn't want a glass of wine with dinner. Sometimes I have one because it symbolises a treat, rather than because I really want one. Same goes for some other foods too....
- Did NOT buy a huge bar of junk chocolate that was calling to me at the supermarket. Instead bought some 70% good quality stuff and just had 3 squares.
- Ignored the urge to eat something sweet thus afternoon

Did not get 3 jobs done... reallocated them to other days next week and just did the one big cooking one I needed to do.

I CAN get rid of 4 lbs this month....!!

I am really down today for some reason. Not sure why, but some days it is hard to keep trying. But I am not giving up.

So just for today
1. get out and walk. Even though it is very hot outside, bring my water, and get out anyhow. I know I will feel better afterwards.
2. look only at the positives in my life. It is all too easy to look at the negatives.
3. Read success stories

I hope everyone has a great day today. We can do this - one day at a time!

Joan, so sorry you are in a slump. But sounds like your goals are sure to motivate you. Good luck with accomplishing them.

You can do this.

HANG in there! the down feeling passes. it always does. keep walking and thinking positive!

Just for 9/6:
Get as much laundry done as I can. Shop at the local market then healthy meal planning and preparation for a more organised and satisfying week ahead.

2. Attend Patchwork Group this morning

Terri - are you a quilter? Just wondering if this is what your Patchwork group is. I love to quilt and sew. Mostly in the evenings -- now if I can just keep doing this instead of grabbing snacks in between sewing

What a great idea! I feel much of my binge eating or late night snacking is due to boredom sitting in front of the TV, finally " relaxing"... I'm not into quilting but it seems like I need to find something that works for me. Any ideas?

Yesterday was a fairly good day; got a 2 mile walk in even though it was hot. Joan6630, I can relate.

It's a holiday weekend which sometimes brings me down. I have tons of time on my hands so I'm going to get busy. Got more than half the laundry done yesterday, logged my food until dinner. We ate out and I didn't get what I planned to order. Not sure how to log that food so I may just get close. I simply forgot to focus on the water drinking yesterday so that will be a goal again today.

Just for today:
(1) Go to church
(2) Log my food
(3) Drink allotted amount of water or more.

I am expressing my gratitude that there are several 2 to 3 mile walking options from my house. Keeps the walks fresh.

Solid day

Barely under but still under my calorie goal
Worked out for 48 minutes including 2.77 mile walk at 17:00/mile pace
Reinforced my wellness mantra twice

For today:

I will stay under my calorie goal and finish my week strong
I will work out for 80 minutes
I will reinforce my wellness mantra
I am expressing my gratitude that while my lovely wife is a runner, she'll slow down and walk with me instead, going on a trail walk this morning
I will complete my work out routine mindfully, no TV or music. Focus on the movements. Can do this once a week

Just for today...
I will watch my carb intake.
And check my sugar two more times.
Have a blessed day everyone
