Pre-logging rocks! I do it every day. At times, I end up changing what I want to eat with snacks and other times I am not hungry for the snacks and.....it gets deleted
Because I do not know what I will be eating for lunch or supper, I allow 500 Calories for lunch and supper. See my food log.
Tomorrow:
I will stay busy doing housework for at least an hour (timed).
Drink my jug of water. My water intake is very poor.
I did my housework for sure!
I failed big time at drinking the water from my mug. I did have (1) hot tea, (1) Diet Soda, (1) Coors Lite for fluids today.1 -
Wednesday
Walk for an hour.
Timed housework for one hour.
Drink that water in the mug!
Go out to lunch with husband.
15 minutes (Work on clutter in bedroom)
Clear off Dining get room table & clutter by door.
That's enough!3 -
@llbrixon LOL!!! Well, the tea & the soda count. When I am having a hard time getting in my water, I make peppermint tea and ice it and just drink that all day. Or I make limeade or lemonade with the juice of a lime or lemon, a couple of Truvia packets, ice & water. It does make it easier to get in the water that way. Better luck tomorrow!2

LOL this didn't work out. But when youre sick youre sick, what can you do. Back at work today and here are my goals:
1. Only eat what I packed and logged. No extra snacks from the break room, because the only thing breaking Is my wallet.
2. Go for my run today!
I didn't go for my run. And I also got snacks. TOM is so hard.
ANYWAYS today I will set an easy goal for myself. Go for a walk after work
Now were getting somewhere! Walked to the store last night for food of course lol.
JFT: Take one of the puppies for a long walk today.
I didnt take the doggy but I went for a long walk myself today todays goal is to go buy stuff for a healthy dinner tomorrow.
Bought my food! Yummy tomato soup 2 -
I haven't posted here for a few days - we had another grandson in town, and thursday I am going there to babysit for 4 days, so hardly had time to get on here.
But I am determined when I get back to buckle down, and stick with losing weight, and getting into shape! Today I went to the gym this morning for 40 minutes, and went for a walk tonite. And I even got hubby to go with me to the gym this morning! This is a routine I would love to start - a great way to start our day before starting work!
So I am starting August out right!
My eating was OK, until tonite, when I got into the mixed nuts and ice cream. But... it could have been worse. I stopped at just a handful of nuts, and had just ONE skinny cow ice cream sandwich.
SO here is to a new month --- a great start. 5 months until Christmas. Wouldn't it be wonderful if all of us can say in December how happy we are that we stuck with this, and our weight will show it! I would love to be 15 lbs lighter by December (if not more!).

Hi All. I'm pretty chronically awful about sticking to dietary goals for more than 30 minutes so I am going to join in to see if I can just take it one day at a time!
Today: 1) hit gym at lunch for longer than 30 minutes (done)
2) no late night snack!
3) one helping at dinner and, if i'm still hungry, i can have more salad.
Good luck everyone!4 -
Today is my silver anniversary (logging for 25 days), yay! Today I will meet or stay under my calorie goals; meet my water intake goals & make or exceed my 10,000 steps. YEEESSSSSSSS!5
