For mini challenge 4/11 and 4/12
Logged - yes
Under calories - yes
Exercise - nope! No weight bearing for 4-6 weeks. But I’m hoping to do some chair fitness after I’m done with the heavy duty painkillers!
@bethann51774, will do, Beth! I hope your surgery went as well as could be expected and that your painkillers are living up to their billing!! What a great idea to do some chair fitness exercises while your foot heals; this is a no excuses zone after all!! Plus I imagine it will help with your sanity if you can do something!1 -
I really appreciate you taking the time to write your reply @mikea2g - thank you. The part about finding a different drug of choice really resonates as I know that when I'm in my best frame of mind I replace my glass of wine and crisps with a workout and copious amounts of green tea. I just need to get myself back to that frame of mind.
@lozenger1984 I'll check out the motivation boards that you've pointed me to. I'm also going to make an effort to get back into my meal prepping this week as I know that does help. I'm still on maternity leave just now and I think rather than looking to add more structure through meal planning or scheduling workouts, I've been using it as an excuse when things are bad and reasoning that I have the "time" to snack or to eat at ridiculous times because I'm not on a work clock. Thank you for the offer of sharing the CBT exercises Laura, I'd like to give them a try if you wouldn't mind sharing.
Thank you for your reply @jlbtnc - it's nice to hear we all go through these things at times and feeling less alone does go a ways to breaking down that guilt/anger/sabotage cycle.
@HASWLRS - Having this group support is invaluable! I do feel like we're in it together and that's given me a boost this morning. Small steps but I'm heading out in the (very cold
) Scottish sun with my dog and the pram for a walk first thing after breakfast.
@Coral333, I am glad you woke with a renewed sense of purpose this morning! I hope you had an invigorating walk with your dog and your child. (hugs)2 -

@HASWLRS
How are YOU doing?
@swauters, thank you for asking, Sara.
It is still TBD. I have an appointment with a chiropodist on the 23rd for my foot. In the meantime I am doing a bunch of stretches for it. I have yet to make an appointment for my head, seeing as that is where I am struggling the most!! I have a family Easter dinner tomorrow, and dinner out on Monday most likely. Maybe Tuesday I can take another stab at eating like a person trying to lose weight!! 3 -
