    Review of today - kept my pledge for no sugar and no snacks. Didn't get a 30 min walk in but got off my bus two stops early as a compromise.

    Tomorrow's commitments:
    1. No sugar
    2. No snacks
    3. Get that 30 min walk in tomorrow

    I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow, and I tend to throw things in the cart that don't need to be there. I've planned out dinners for the next 2 weeks, and made a list of what I can get that will last that long (because it's a 30 minute drive to a big grocery store), and fresh produce can be bought at the little store in town as needed. I'm hoping this will limit what's around to snack on.

    Yesterday, sick all day, and spent most of the day in bed.

    1. log all food :)
    2. drink water :) But not as much as I should
    3. rest and get better :) ALmost the entire day in bed! But feeling a little better today

    Friday, 1/6
    1. log all food
    2. drink water. Concentrate on this -- I need to make this a daily habit of drinking at least 6 glasses a day
    3. no exercise today, as I am still not feeling well, so concentrate on healthy foods today

    Hope you all have a wonderful friday. You are all doing great - such motivators!

    What a great idea!
    I have started my journey today so this is opportune.
    My goal for today....
    Stay within caloric intake (1400)
    Be mindful of what I eat
    My goal for January
    Same as today but everyday!
    Yoga four times a week
    Drop a few lbs....

    Kind of simplistic but I hope its a good place to start....

    - 10k steps via FitBit (I got 9298 - spent most of the day with a sick toddler :( )
    - 100oz of water - DONE
    - Stick to my food plan - DONE
    - No snacking after baby bed time - Hubby brought me my favorite kind of cookies, and I had a couple. :(
    - Stick to my grocery list, no extra treats! - Weather prevented us from going grocery shopping, so this one is N/A

    Yesterday was hit and miss because of yucky, icy weather and a sick kiddo.

    Today it's a sick mama, too, and I'm keeping my goals light and easy today, while I'm feeling so crappy.

    Goals for 1/7/2017
    - Stay hydrated (not counting water because I'm drinking a lot of tea)
    - Walk when I can (aim for 10k, but don't stress if I don't make it)
    - Eat at least 1200 calories (Sinus drainage is making my stomach upset)
    - No snacking after baby bed time

    Joan, I hope you feel better! I struggle getting water in also. Have you tried any of the ideas on Pinterest for adding fruit or cucumber to a pitcher of water? Cucumber, lemon and a bit of mint leaves is pretty good!

    Have a great Saturday everyone!

    weight was down 2 lbs from a week ago, that that was encouraging. But ... I am also at my all-time high. I did awful last nite. Still not feeling good, and most of the day spent in bed. Then my daughter came out, and found a cheesecake mix in my pantry, and make it. I think I ate half of it (and my daughter ate the other half!). but ... at least it is gone now.
    When I don't feel good, unless my stomach is upset, I tend to over eat, so have to watch myself.

    Yesterday
    1. stay hydrated. drink water :)
    2. rest :)
    3. log all food :/
    4. GET WELL :/

    So JFT, simple again....
    1. log all food
    2. drink water and stay hydrated.
    3. rest so I can get better
    4. try and "attempt" to clean my sewing room
    5. work on quarterly taxes

    @joan6630 I am the same way when I don't feel good. All I want to do is eat. I'm also an emotional eater. So if I feel down or stressed, I might as well place my recliner in front of the refrigerator because I'm going to sit and eat and watch TV all day. It's a vicious cycle. So, I get it... At least you didn't eat the WHOLE cake and it's gone now. Every day is a new start.
    Just for Saturday, 1/7/2017
    1. Focus on making healthy food choices :s
    2. Journal every bite :smile: Even the stupid candy bars that snuck up and got me.
    3. Complete budget for January :/
    4. Do an exercise DVD that doesn't put pressure on left foot (yoga maybe?) :/
    5. Write a real letter (not email or Facebook) to someone and mail it. :/
    6. Make a meal plan for next week and put together grocery list ;) Kinda? Made a grocery list anyway!
    7. 1 lb of fresh veggies :/
    8. Random act of kindness :):):)

    I have a huge list for today, which is probably why I fail! But I need to write down physical and mental things during winter to keep me on track. ( I get seasonal depression every winter really bad. )

    Just for Today (Sunday, 1/8/17)
    1. Focus on healthy choices, physically and mentally
    2. Journal every bite...even cheat bites. Keep track of what is happening when I cheat in my notes section.
    3. Finish my work tasks I didn't get done while sick last week
    4. Exercise DVD but careful with left foot
    5. Write one letter. Doesn't have to be long.
    6. Clean and cut up veggies I just bought at grocery store
    7. Plan and pack my lunch & snacks for work tomorrow
    8. Set out clothes and prepare for work tomorrow
    9. Try to go to the gym to use the tan beds for a "sunlight" fix and sit in the massage chair and relax.
    10. Hang reminders around the house of WHY I am doing this for motivation
    11. Bed early and unplug, read and journal
    12. Oh, and how could I forget? I will cheer on my Green Bay Packers in their playoff game today but I will NOT eat any of the tailgating food (i.e. chips, dip, salsa, etc.) GO PACK!!!

    Have stayed off sugar and snacking this weekend which I'm so happy with myself for doing. Weekends are when temptation hits, as I'm not working I don't have as much structure with meal times either.

    Tomorrow I pledge:
    1. No sugar
    2. No snacking
    3. No technology 20 mins before lights out. Read a book.

    I was hit and miss on these goals. I stayed hydrated, and I got close to 10k steps (9950 or something). I got to 1300 calories... and that includes the cookie I had right before bed with the excuse of "I need something in my belly when I take my meds."

    Goals for 1/8/2017
    - Stay hydrated
    - Rest and get well
    - No, seriously, rest.
