I live close enough to the airport that I can see all of the writing on planes as they are landing and taking off. Today I’m hearing them but can’t see them.
@Faebert - last August the whole month was so smoky we couldn’t get out. It started to clear by the beginning of September but then we had our first snow on the 13th. It has not been really nice since.4 -
Went to Blue Planet Aquarium today!
Took the girls!
We saw the Sting Rays get fed (kind of a little show)
All the sharks in the shark tunnel! And EVERYTHING else!
We love the sting rays lol, their faces!
I carried Casey the whole way round!
We then went to an outlet mall called "Cheshire Oaks" where you can get all designer brands at discount prices, so Ash got a pair of £60 Converse for £19!
It was a total of 4 hours ish walking, feels like soneones took a hammer to my femurs and ive had a double hip replacement!
Will post pics at some point but need to get them off Ash's phone!5 -

Oh my gosh, @Snowflake1968! The sky is such an odd color! That's just scary and that had to make for an awfully short summer if you had to stay inside. How close were the fires?0 -

This picture was taken at around 1 this afternoon. The fires right now are anywhere from 3-7 hours drive north of us. Last year the fires were in BC a whole other province.2 -
@Snowflake1968 That is awful! I hope they clear up and go away! Last year was awful out west for wild fires. Hope we are not in for another bad year.
1 -
30 minutes movement/exercise
Do not eat any more donuts!
(I'm at an open house and already ate one!)
Give myself lots of space today-I'm feeling a little anxious
Meditate 5 minutes
Drink water
Get through the effing day with a smile on your face and fall apart later
I got through the day, feeling so burnt out and tired and kind of annoyed at myself for not working out but I literally just got home an hour ago and did not have a spare minute today. I will have to max out my efforts tomorrow on the last day of May to meet my May fitness goals.
Husband's birthday today so we went out to dinner and I enjoyed wine and cake so sure tomorrow will not see a weight loss but worth it to celebrate. Made fairly healthy dinner choices. Did not meditate today and I really should have. Hopefully I'll get a really good nights sleep tonight, tomorrow is another busy day but I will have time to get to the gym so it'll be ok. Also had some showings to do but clients decided to go Sunday instead so I get the evening to relax. Can't say I'm upset about that, that's for sure!

Log accurately
Lunch was tricky, but I think I got it very close
60 minutes intentional walking
Productive work day
General house cleanup
@Snowflake1968 -sorry job did not work out. It can be tough breaking into a new field. I am a big believer that life works out as it should and we end up where we should if we leave ourselves open to it. Had you started a new job right now, it would conflict with the wedding and all of the preparations. With your determination, you will find the right position. The fires do look scary. I remember seeing fires/smoke over the mountains in San Diego when I lived there for few years in my youth. It seems as if we are having way too many fires, tornados, and flooding in the Northern Hemisphere.
Keeping goals easy for Friday. Picking up SIL from Switzerland early and hitting outlet malls and a couple of other stores. I know I will get some steps in. Want to get some shorts from Columbia outlet for my Phoenix trip (I really like the lightweight material). Will also have to check out Loft and Anne Taylor. Pretty sure I will keep calories under control, just hope I can do same with shopping!

Log Accurately
30 minutes intentional walking
Enjoy shopping with SIL
Best to those struggling-it is good you can share, that helps us sort out problems.

I have decided that I’m not going to post goals or count calories this weekend. This is a once in a lifetime experience and I just want to enjoy it. I will log in each day so that I don’t lose my streak though!
If I don’t get a chance to say hi, everyone have a great weekend!4 -
Not a particularly good day yesterday. I have the day off today, so got in 'weekend' mode and indulged a little. I also failed to do pretty much any French. But I'm ok with that. I've been pushing myself a bit hard I think and was feeling a little worn down. I think I needed a rest to give me the energy to get back on with it - which I will do today!
Yesterday's commitments:
- Log everything I eat
- Be in the green with mini deficit
- 4 bottles water
- No alcohol
- Exercise DVD
- No eating whilst standing
- Savour every bite
- Talk back to sabotaging thoughts
- Give myself credit!
- Stay positive
- French vocab (new + practise)
- French reading
- Talk to boyfriend in French
- Duolingo
- Finish work by 7pm
- Washing
- Gratitude journal
- Lights off by 11
Today's commitments:
- Log everything I eat

- Stay positive
- French vocab (new + practise)
- French verbs (practise)
- French podcast

- French revision (lots)
- Gratitude journal
Weekly calorie balance: 230 in red (not counting red)
Today's positive thought: I don't have to go to work for THREE DAYS. And the weather is meant to be nice this weekend, which means I can have nice walks for revision breaks.
Words for 2019: Mindful Moderation

Mary you look GORGEOUS 😍😍4 -
Good morning all! I have to be super fast because I'm running late this morning. Good news though, our offer was accepted! Now I'm freaking out about choosing which lender to use. One can pay the down payment for us but has a higher interest rate, another has a great interest rate but we have to pay the down payment which leaves us with not much left, but it's about $200 a month cheaper. I'll also be looking into a third option today.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great day and thank you so much for your support!

I realized tonight that I have stopped journaling and singing- two indicators that I am allowing anxiety to get the upper hand in my life. I spent some time writing about the things that are holding me back from my very good goals, and when I finished, I tore the list up in little pieces and put it in the shredding. Today is a great day, full of opportunity to put my strengths to work to keep me away from deceptive foods. I just forgot, for a few days, that I do have strengths! Same book today, new chapter, fresh, empty page to record my journey to health.9
