    J4T/Friday, 9/30
    1. Make healthy choices and journal them :/ Hard to stay with healthy choices when your husband takes you to A&W to grab a bite. I will instead just be happy he wanted to take me out for a bite and not beat myself up over it. The rest of the day, I was good.
    2. At least six 8oz glasses of water :) I did it!!!
    3. Walk at least 30 minutes today ;) I didn't actually go for a walk but I did exceed my step goal on my FitBit so it's something I guess!
    4. Continue to take the high road when coworkers whisper about each other cubicles. Life is too short to not be kind to one another. (Drives me insane!) :) success! Put in my earbuds and some music and ignore, ignore, ignore!
    5. Buy a digital weight scale today ;) Didn't grab one last night but am running to Walmart in a few minutes to buy one so I can accurately measure my food.
    6. Be grateful for another beautiful brand new day! :D Absolutely!

    @joan6630 Thank you for your kind words! It makes me feel so happy to do nice things for others. I've always gotten such joy out of that, so actually maybe it's me being kind of selfish? :smile: Anyway, I DID meet my goal of six 8 oz glasses of water yesterday!! Thanks for the motivating water challenge. I'm halfway there today too!

    J4T (Saturday)
    1. Healthy choices
    2. Journal every bite and every drink
    3. Buy a digital food scale
    4. Exercise at least 30 minutes, perhaps the gym with a reward of sitting in the massage chair afterward?
    5. Read something for pleasure
    6. Do something to make my husband smile today
    7. Random act of kindness

    Have a GREAT weekend everyone!

    So last week was pretty rubbish diet and exercise but somehow in my weekly weigh in I have dropped 3lb!! Body makes no sense...

    Suspect it's just that last week I weighed in at a 'heavy point' in the fluctuation cycle, whereas this week I'm at a 'light point'.

    Either way I'm pleased, but need to not be complacent and keep working hard - I got away with it last week but won't be able to keep doing so!

    Today's commitments -

    - Log everything I eat
    - No unhealthy snacks
    - Choose healthy option for dinner
    - If go for drink, G&T only
    - Dance class after work
    - Do not exceed calories by more than 300

    - 30+ minute lunch break
    - Listen to music to stay upbeat
    - If find self getting stressed/overwhelmed, take a quick break and breathe/have a cup of tea/think positive thoughts

    A terrible weekend - foodwise - but otherwise, a great weekend. My brother-in-law and his wife were here, so lots of eating out - and took his wife shopping. So at least I got a little walking in. My now today, here I am, eating leftover homemake bread and cookies! At least the stuff is almost gone.
    So my list is going to be simple today --

    just drink 8 glasses of water to flush all the sugar, carbs out of my system!

    Thank goodness for yard work or else I would have blown my calories this weekend! So, since I am back at the office today and no playing in the garden - I have to be good.

    JFT:
    No midnight snack! And no sneaking into the bagels!
    No wine
    Take the kids for a walk after (before?) dinner
    30 push ups
    core work (time to get that belly left over from the last baby!)

    Good luck everyone!
