    This is such a great concept.

    JFT:
    - I work at a catering hall so tonight at work, I will not eat leftover food just because it's there.
    - I'm going to a family holiday party today so while I'm there, I'll eat small portions and track everything I eat.

    jFt: log intake
    Host party at my house, have fun but careful not to go over budget
    Get my steps in

    Enjoyed having family over, did well considering amt of food available. Having veggie and dip, having half of dessert instead of eating whole thing, and now walking on treadmill. Also cleaned after the party. It all counts in a positive way.

    A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you!!!!

    The past 3 months I have been so out of control, and my weight shows it. I gave in to emotional eating, and honestly, just did not care. But I do care. I AM important. And eating food for emotional reasons will not fix anything.

    But I love the start of a new year, and am going to really commit this year. I know I will have days where I am not successful, but that is OK. That is how my mindset has to be to be successful. So this new year, lets all remember that.

    We try, and some days we may eat more than we should, or give in to emotional eating. But each day is a fresh start, and another new begining. The past is in the past.

    So just for today, New years Day, 1/1/16
    1. Think before mindless eating
    2. no emotional eating. Journal instead my thoughts
    3. start a gratitude journal
    4. log every bite
    5. work for 8 glasses of water - 2 at each meal.
    6. Lower my expectations. I have a mentally ill daughter, and have to remember that she has a brain disease. She is doing the best she can, and I have to always remember that.
    7. Put away Christmas stuff, clean up the house. A fresh start



    One day at a time girl ! Wish you nothing but success !

    JFT: when I go out with my friends today, I won't eat unhealthy foods just because they're not supportive of the changes I've made to my eating habits.

    Bring an apple or some lite snack. It helped me yesterday when I was out all day with the girls.
