Just For Today:
I will drink a lot of water and eat as much soup as I can manage.
Hang in there and I hope you feel better soon.
I know that personal defeats are somewhat a downer but sometimes it is liberating to just say something about it ...and you did so you are human ....so I know you'll do better because you believe you're worth it and I know you are
take care

Outside 15 Minutes
June Challenge
Do 10 Something's at work
Write in Journal
Plank Challenge
Swim or walk tonight
Yesterday I didn't get out and make any sales. I did buy the safety equipment I need to enter construction areas to talk to people though. I have to go out today though for a bit to attempt this whole sale thing.
I didn't exercise at all last night except for my plank challenge. I did spend 2 hours prepping food after I got home from getting groceries and I dyed my hair. At least I wasn't just sitting on my butt all evening. The scale is moving excruciatingly slow! Today was day 10 on the Give Me 10 Days Challenge and I ended up 0.4lbs higher than when I started. I have the proper foods in the house now though so I should be able to get back on track for then next 10 days.
I posted this as my fb positive pic last night, but thought it fit here as well.

I don't even want to discuss last night! Had a great day in every way but food. Lol. Stupid free girl scout cookies!
Anyway, today is the first day of 6 weeks without my manager. She's out on disability because she's having a procedure done on her foot. So far the day has been really good. Way slow but LK and I have been talking a lot. We found out last Thursday that she's moving to NC in two months. It's a little terrifying for me but really good for her and her husband.
Yesterday I started fixing our predecessors absolutely horrendous filling system. I really enjoyed it! I've been saying for months now that if I could make a living as a filing clerk/organizer I would absolutely LOVE it! I think I'm going to spend some more time working on it today.
Anyway! Goal time!
1. Eat sensibly
2. Have fun but stay on task with D
3. Leave D by 9
4. Bed by 11
Have a great day everyone!5 -

Thank you very much. It's amazing what I can do when I stay focused and determined...I surprised myself, lol!2 -
Yay! Great job @toaljasa!
Had a good day myself yesterday. Mostly easy to make good choices through the day. In the evening a couple of moments where the June challenge kicked in and I avoided temptation. It helps that this time of year there is some really lovely fresh fruit in season. Had some gorgeous cherries as a treat and I’m getting through lots of berries at the moment. Anyone else feel like it’s easier to eat well in the summer??

Loved seeing all the check marks. Yes I do think it's easier to eat well. The fruit is so very very tasty. And this just adds to the momentum. (thanks for the rah-rah...it really is a huge boost)
Hope your day is filled with peace and joy.0 -
Didn't manage to post yesterday, was working from home so didn't have my commute time, or indeed any time at all in the morning as i just rolled out of bed in time for my 9am call
Had an emotional eating session on Tuesday. I was a bit wound up after my French class (I'm struggling to progress and my teacher is harsh/useless) and ended eating several packets of junk on the way home. Once I started it was hard to stop... I think I have been craving junk.
I've decided I'm definitely going to take my weight loss target down to 0.5 lb per week now, to allow myself small treats little and often rather than denying myself them and going crazy. At the same time, like many others I also need to keep working on this emotional eating thing as that was a bit part of the 'episode'!
Today's commitments:
- Log everything I eat
- Stick to food plan
- 3 bottles water
- French podcast + article + book
- Stop working by 64
