Apologies for being late today.

Just finished my walking

18173 steps today
60 mins - walk/ run - sprints
20 mins walking with weights

Not too late at all - we are more relaxed now, except for SATURDAY which everyone will have to be very prompt. @Navydaddjtc and I will tally the scores and review the play-by-play to post the results first thing on Sunday.

@Kittu125 - do you have steps and/or workouts for Sunday? I seem to be missing your steps, and we'd love to put in some scores for Sunday for baseball too.

Tally ho!

Sunday steps -6090
45 minutes - Brisk walk

Team Weight No More's Week 3 Group Challenge Today Matters




A Four minute Four Circle goal setting tool
Adapted from Steve Chandler's book "100 ways to motivate yourself"

The Four Circle Method is a game changer if you suffer with the thought "I have so much weight to lose and it will TAKE FOREVER."

This is a great tool that helps you plan what you will do today to get you to that far away goal. You see, most of us are just disconnected from the smaller version of ourselves. We can't believe that the little things we do today MATTER. We think things like, "This bite won't hurt" or "I’m done… weighing 150lbs will take forever so give me a cookie."

The Four Circles basically trains your brain to believe how important today's tiny steps are. Yep...drinking the water matters versus our usual thought of drinking the water isn't enough.

Instruction: Start by drawing four circles on a piece of paper (see example below). The circles represent one year, one month, one week, and today. Inside each circle write down what you want. It can be anything. Start with the one year circle first.

The top left circle is the one year goal.
The top right breaks that goal down into a smaller piece, a monthly goal.
The bottom left is an even smaller piece, a weekly goal.
The bottom right is EVERYTHING you are going to do today that will help you reach your goal.

Without looking at our goals on a daily basis, we tend to lose sight of them and get caught up in reacting to people and circumstances, forgetting about our one year goal. If you hit your daily goal every day, your weekly goal is automatically hit. If your weekly goal every week is reached, the monthly goal has to happen If you hit your monthly goal every month, your yearly goal will be achieved.

Ultimately, success is dependent upon just one of the circles: the circle labeled "today". When you realize the irrefutable mathematical truth contained in this system, you have just proved on paper that your day and your life are the same thing. There is no future other than the future you are working on today. Your future is not stranded out there somewhere in space.

Now tell your team and share your goals. Every day matters. What will you do today?

I woke up this morning knowing I have to recommit to my health and healthy weight. I start each day with all good intentions, logging breakfast, measuring, planning and sometimes logging lunch, hardly ever measuring and logging dinner and the after-dinner treats… whether cocktails, healthy snacks or gluttonous binges. Still staying within the same 1-3 pound range which is fortunate. But this vicious cycle is getting to my head… making me just a little bit crazy, irritable, overthinking things, trying to justify my habits and behavior and I know I must stop self-sabotaging and pay more attention to my mental/emotional health.

So this challenge is perfect for me. Perfect timing. Perfectly simple. Perfectly do-able.

So here it is…
My Four Circles to Success
Yes, the colors are significant…
To me the color
Purple represents hope
Green represents growth
Yellow represents excitement
Red represents celebration
All are connected, one will lead to the next



Plan to see my success report tomorrow.

Happy Restart Saturday to me and to all

Not done steps for today. But the weather is awful and I have sitting work to do.

You can use the weather excuse to do an indoor workout! Get on youtube or something and find a good bodyweight workout of at least 30 minutes and you will not regret it - then march around the house and you'll get your steps in. I just spent 40 minutes on the phone with my mom, walking briskly round and round the downstairs, upstairs, and everywhere the whole time. Even that counts for something. Taxes will get done even better if you get your sweat and endorphins going, right??

Speaking of steps, yesterday isn't quite enough to add up to a single, but if you also can report # of minutes of any kind of intentional exercise that could count too!
