    I will express my wellness mantra twice, both morning and afternoon
    I will stay within my calorie budget for the fourth straight day and not overindulge in any single food
    I will work out for 60 minutes
    I am expressing gratitude for the love and support of my parents. Tough couple of days for my lovely bride and I. Parents have checked in daily to see how we are.

    Meh, that could have gone better.

    Way over on my calories and definitely overindulged.
    Did work out for 1:12 and got off the couch to go walk late in the afternoon
    Expressed my wellness mantra but only in the morning

    For today, it's a new day

    I will express my wellness mantra twice.
    I will stay within my calorie budget for the day and finish my week on a good note
    I will work out for 60 minutes
    I am expressing gratitude for the incredible experiences I've had in my life. Most recently a few days in Estes Park enjoying the views and winter weather.

    Good day

    Reminded myself of the reasons I'm becoming healthier twice
    Stayed within my calorie budget and didn't over indulge
    Worked out for 73 minutes including a 2 mile walk at 17:40 a mile. Getting back into it.

    For today:

    I will express my wellness mantra twice. Already done once.
    I will stay within my calorie budget for the day and not overindulge.
    I will work out for 60 minutes. Got up early and have 34 minutes in the bank.
    I am expressing gratitude for the flexibility of my job. While I flew out on Sunday evening, it was my choice so that I could be in market first thing Monday morning.

    I have been unactive on this site this past week, so I am trying to get back on more. I think I am just in a slump.

    I'm posting my goals tonite for tomorrow, in hopes that I can switch this mindset around!

    Just for Today - Tuesday
    1. Look at the positive things in life, and appreciate the small things.
    2. Try to understand mental illness. It is hard, but try to remember that my dear daughter is doing the best she can. Just be there for her, and encourage her.
    3. Eat as healthy as I can -- which means no sugar at all! Sugar only will make me feel worse, not better.

    Tough day.

    Way over my calorie budget, certainly overindulged, worked out for 34 minutes and expressed my wellness mantra once.

    For today:

    I will express my wellness mantra twice.
    I will stay within my calorie budget for the day
    I will hit the treadmill when I get back to my hotel tonight
    I am expressing gratitude that it's a new day and that my body is wired to turn to tacos when I encounter trauma instead of drugs, alcohol or gambling.
