Monday goals
1.) gym at lunch cardio 25 minutes & leg weights
2.) no cookies or candy
Went through starting stages of sugar detox last night but made my goal of no cookies or candy. I was really glad when it was time to go to bed so I could put it out of my mind. I just keep thinking JFT and that really helped.
Tuesday JFT
1.) gym at lunch cardio work out and upper body workout
2.) no cookies, candies or sweets
3.) try not to overthink it and just go with the flow, 50% if this is a mind game for me

Preplan suppers for week.
Drink 9 cups of water

Walk 45 minutes
Instead of procrastinating, set timer on iPhone to prompt moving forward.

Be patient with kids
Daughter has a lot of emotional outbursts lately so need to avoid emotional eating in response (try chewing gum) & have an activity ready for her.
Research emotional/reward eating.
I have to be able to maintain my healthy habits in order to be successful. Be patient...trust the process.

JFT, 1/05
1. Stay within calorie limits
2. Walk the dogs
3. Cardio workout of some kind - still trying to find something that's intense enough to clear out the cobwebs without being high impact. It sucks. I guess I'm stuck with the elliptical until I figure it out
4. Go try to find some swimwear suitable for exercise swimming instead of just lounging-around-by-the-pool swimming. Sports Authority or REI are likely my best bets around here. I wonder if I'm going to have to find someone to teach me correct form and technique for swimming laps. Hmm.
