    Ok, let’s do it! Let’s add some sort of movement challenge to your daily posts. You decide what’s appropriate for you!

    For myself I’m going to commit to either going over my 10,000 steps goal or doing at least 30 minutes of other activity every day!

    After a stressful return to work with not one but two calls to come back to address urgent issues, I bought but did not eat a bag of chips. Bad of me to buy them. But a huge success not eating them. I wouldn’t have stopped at one serving... big win for me!!

    Track: yes
    Calories: 1758
    Exercise: walk with family (slow)

    Half Size Me Escaping The Good Prison worksheet
    20-30g protein, 4-6g fiber (1/2 for snacks):
    Breakfast: 18/5
    S1: 10/7 / L: 37/3 / S2: 31/8.5 / D: 29/9
    Track treats and times:
    Pure protein after lunch
    Chocolate chips after dinner
    Tea with half and half after breakfast
    Coffee with quest shake late afternoon
    Food on Plate Butt in Chair:
    Nope. Before I knew it I ate my protein bar without sitting down or putting it on a plate or napkin. Also nibbled while fixing lunch and dinner. Mostly veggies but the point is to put all food on a plate and eat it mindfully.
    environment free of temptations: yes
    seeking support: I spoke up and said I was hungry for dinner at 6 instead of snacking until everyone was ready to eat at 7 or 8.

    Today:
    Today was my first day of working remotely and I just hated it. The vpn was slow, I didn't have any of my papers, I didn't have my two screens it just really threw me off and it was hard to concentrate. Then my partner started having to deal with some family stuff and so he is upset. The weekend was nice but I am needing to get out of here tomorrow and at least go get the mail to feel like myself.

    I am focusing on gratitude, not eating for comfort, remembering that me not taking care of my body is not helping anyone, and that this too shall pass.

    This is my first time here. I hoping this group will help me to stay more accountable. I’m a nurse working icu in a small Pennsylvania rural hospital. We have not seen any covid but they have been in nearby hospitals . I was suppose to have hip surgery last week but it was postponed. I was put on medical leave by my md til I have my surgery. I’m not able to exercise strenuously but concentrating on eating healthy . Since January I am down 34 lbs. Normally I am a very active person, I use to walk five miles/ day with my very active bloodhounds, riding my two horses and of course running around crazy at work.

    Stomach bothering me, not sure why but should probably focus on getting lots of veggies and water.
    NSV: I was asked to get someone else a cookie and thought about getting me another one too but decided nah I'm good. Also didn't buy lunch.

    Day: I kinda failed at everything today lol. The weather sucks so we can’t go outside which was the only thing keeping me sane during this isolation. I ate all my feelings and sat and pouted like a petulant child for most of the day 🤣 I will do better tomorrow!!

    @AmyG1982 you tracked it so you didn’t “fail everything”. 😉 Rest well and kick butt tomorrow.
