    Thursday
    1. rest to try and get rid of this cold :) I rested a lot yesterday --- and feel SO much better today! Still not feeling great, but compared to yesterday, a big improvement!
    2. try not to snap at hubby and daughter. Rest instead :) Laid in bed and worked on business expenses - something I just hate doing! But watched "shark tank", and drank my Orange juice, and got a lot done
    3. drink water :)

    JFT, Friday
    1. drink water
    2. eat as healthy as possible, but focus more on getting over this cold

    @Moxie42 -- Great job!!

    By 10:30am yesterday, I'd eaten my calories for the day. And at the point, I just said, screw it....

    2 glasses of wine last night with dinner, a lovely night with my wife, and 9 hours sleep! I'm in a much better mood this morning.

    Goals:
    1. Water water water
    2. Plan menus for the weekend and go grocery shopping

    I cannot thank each of you SO SO much for being on this journey with me.

    I started a new thread for the year 2018 --- I hope you will all join me there as we have a year, a fresh start. I am hoping this year to reach my weight goals, meet new online friends, and encourage each other throughout the year. I can't wait to see what the new year brings all of us.

    So please join me!

    New Year's Day!
    Always a thoughtful day.
    I always make and usually keep New Year's Resolutions. This year I have several... one I will share:
    Log in every day and keep under my calorie goal for the 1st 100 days this year.

    Here we go!

    Good luck to everyone with their Resolutions and their 'just for today' goals.
    Day by day!!

    Monday:
    1. Plan and pre-track exercise for the week.
    2. Do food prep. for breakfasts and lunches.
    3. Pre-track breakfasts and lunches.

    Baby steps today.

    Just for Thursday:
    1. Journal every bite honestly. Don't leave out one single Hershey kiss. Don't worry about staying in the green at this point, just get in the habit of tracking EVERY single bite.
    2. Increase water intake. At least eight 8 oz glasses
    3. Activity tonight. Even if it is 15 minutes. Get some.
    4. Rewrite my Advantages Resource index cards from Day 1 of Beck Diet Solution.
    5. Look at menu online for Margarita's restaurant where our boss is taking us for lunch today and pick something healthy.
    6. Take one hour of "me" time today to rejuvenate by doing something I enjoy and find relaxing.

    OMG --- I am also! I gained almost 8 pounds over christmas. I am reading the book by Dr Beck: The Beck Diet Solution: Train your brain to think like a thin person. It is a lifelong struggle I've had. You can do it - just keep getting on here. I found that at least helps me to try and stay focused one day at a time!
