    JFT 7.9.16
    - morning yoga :)
    - do not snack between breakfast and lunch :)
    - take a sensible amount at lunch :smile:
    - have only fruit and / or yogurt in the afternoon :)
    - find a healthy choices for dinner on-the-go :/ On the plus side I was so pressed for time, I couldn't buy something, which kept the calories down. But on the downside it wasn't a very nutricious evening, and was a bit snack-y
    - log everything again :) which I'm sure helped

    JFT 8.9.16
    - morning yoga :)
    - do not snack between breakfast and lunch
    - take a sensible amount at lunch, no bread
    - have only fruit and / or yogurt in the afternoon
    - no alcohol this evening
    - no snacks in addition to dinner

    I need to figure out better afternoon snacks. I think I'm still eating rather a lot of sugar, albeit in the form of fruit. But that's still sugar. Suggestions?

    Tonite I go and get the MRI of my ankle. Hopefully no surgery will be needed. So frustrating how one little slip can bother me for 3 months!
    Hope it went well!

    1. log ALL food :)

    5. Keep off the scale. :/ Well, already cheated on this. But I am down 1 lb, so that makes me feel better. :/
    6. remember that I am 65, and the weight will not come off as quickly as when I was 50. Concentrate on eating healthy, and exercising everyday. :)

    Yesterday's commitments -

    - Stay calm at work :/ Definitely didn't do this due to very stressful deadline. Have decided to write coping mechanisms on flash cards to look at when I'm in a flap

    - Take a half hour lunch break out of the office :)

    - Stay within calories, with 500 deficit (to make up for over indulging on Tue, Wed and Thu...)

    - no alcohol :)

    - meditate :/ Was difficult to do this due to mum visiting - no time alone. Need to start planning when to do this when my normal slot (train home) is disrupted

    - catch up on diary :/ As above - will do this tomorrow instead

    - do not take laptop home (can take papers if necessary) :/ Urgent deadlines make this necessary. I have to make sure I don't do this next weekend though.

    Today's commitments -

    - Stay within calories
    - no alcohol
    - meditate
    - write up coping mechanisms on flash cards
    - use some to help me relax (particularly when working later)
    - be nice to boyfriend, don't take out stress on him
