    Had flu for a week and my lifestyle changes went to hades. Caught myself dishing out huge portions.

    Just for today:
    1) stick to my limit

    2) walk to work and try and get my 10k steps in. (Although there's a rapist on the loose in town and women are being advised not to walk alone at night so I'll play this by ear).

    3) not beat myself up.

    Wow! Great ideas and what a way to stay mindful of the journey.

    Just for today, I'm not going to think anything ugly about myself AND I'm going to bed at a reasonable time.

    I'm all in on this thread. :smile:
