    J4T Monday

    Had a difficult day today, too busy to focus on my plan.
    1. Protein Smoothie for breakfast - ran out of ingredients
    2. Finish laundry - folded but not put away. Close, very close!
    3. Assorted Christmas business and chaos! :smiley: this I did!
    4. Stick to plan for eating lunch and dinner out - plan got wonky, couldn't eat when I needed to, ended up hungry and tired, ate too many cookies!
    Didn't do any exercising!




    J4T Tuesday
    1. Jog 5k :smiley: Done before anything else!
    2. Plan dinner
    3. Stick to calorie goals one meal at a time
    4. Only eat pre logged treats
    5. Gym for weights and Abs
    6. Grocery shopping

    I hope everyone is trying to relax and enjoy the pre-holiday activities. Today I am going to try to not let me healthy goals stress me out. I'll just do what I can do and let the rest go!

    JFT 22nd and 23rd
    1. Stop eating sugar. It's everywhere right now and so tempting. But I can enjoy the holidays so much more if I focus on the wonderful people around me and not the treats.
    2. Enjoy the interruptions in my routine instead of feeling bogged down with my to-do lists
    3. Eat real meals to stop snacking throughout the day

    Well, I'm back! Have tried to stay on track and did well for all but 2 days. Have been staying within my calorie and nutrient goals and have been getting about 9000 steps per day, if not more. My husband has been away helping a sick friend and my Aunt and cousins were here for the weekend. It was my aunt's 98th bday last week(1 of the days) cousins here ( the other day) My husband got back yesterday ( our 30th anniversary) he got back too late to do anything- good for my food intake. He is having surgery tomorrow (angioplasty) hopefully that will work and he won't need the bypass, oh it is his birthday. We are staying home for Christmas(going to miss my daughter and grandkids) so I am going off my goals just for that day! I think I will need a break by then! Bad excuse? But JFT I will track everything, stay within goals and get my walking in, even though it's raining, will do that tomorrow and the day after Christmas and so on and so on! And I will be grateful! Happy Holidays!

    My theory on excuses...the only one that's not acceptable is one that makes you quit, because life happens and sometimes you have to change your plans but you only fail when you quit.

    I'm praying your hubby recovers quickly and his procedure is extremly successful.

    1) OT at 9
    2) Watercolor paintings for Thursday's get-together
    3) Figure out what to do with some odds and ends for storage

    ^no painting

    JFT Wednesday 12/23/15
    Went to a new orthopedist and found out I've been walking around for three months with an undiagnosed hip fracture. So...
    1) Made PT appt for Jan 7
    2) Made Pool appt for Jan 6
    3) Will not wreak vengence on the last orthopedist, but will definitely report it to my internist who referred me to the first one.
