    2. log every bite
    3. Watch sugar and carbs
    4. write in my gratitude journal

    I'd like to join this. I think the idea of one day at a time is a great idea. I am restarting my weight loss and healthier eating today. Any extra support to get going again would be so helpful. My goal for today is to walk on my treadmill, not eat any sugary foods, and to do some juicing. Wish me luck!

    Glad to have you join us!! I find this group so encouraging, and it keeps me going each day -- one day at a time!! I am with you on the sugary foods - I have to work hard to avoid those!!

    Thank you joan6630!! Yes I got into the habit again during the holidays. I feel sluggish again and need to get my body healthier. This group looks perfect for me! If I look too far ahead I get so discouraged

    Those are great goals! You can do it! The thing that has worked for me in the past is make sure you get rid of all sugary temptations in your house. Then stock your house with healthy snacks. Increasing good proteins helps keep you full and eating lots of fruits helps with the sugar cravings. Hope this helps :smile:
