    I am sad today. 😢 I should have been leaving for my trip to Scotland for my granddaughters 1st birthday today. I ended up eating my feelings and binged last night. The good thing is I got a voucher for my plane tickets and will be travelling there as soon as COVID-19 slows down or we get a vaccine.

    I have 3/5 of my 5 minute walks done. I took pain medication about 15 minutes ago so I am going to try and go for a short walk. It’s stopped raining, it’s cool outside and sunny. Perfect walking weather!

    I am up slightly after the weekend. We had a fairly high sodium supper last night and being over in calories for 3 nights contributed to this. I am going to have to be tight with my eating for the rest of the week to be under my calorie average this week.

    I'm so sorry that you missed out on your grandbaby's 1st. I understand the emotional binge, I do it too. I give you so much respect for getting your walks in with so much leg pain, it's so hard to push through pain, so be proud of each and every time you get past it.

    I had a bad eating weekend. This week I a trying to pull in my calories a bit to compensate for my over indulgences, but going forward I really need to try to control my diet and stick to plan over the weekends, it's so hard.

    Hope you and everyone have a solid start to the week!

    My goal was to do a week of 'clean eating' but it is already busted. I was running late this morning and grabbed a package of tuna for lunch. Who would imagine that there would be sugar, xanthan gum, citrus fiber, yeast extract, and maltose in tuna?

    I guess I'll try again tomorrow.

    There’s always tomorrow. You can clean eat for the rest of the day. I hope it goes well for you!

    I would consider cardio a workout. You did well overall on your goals. Awesome steps!

    I find the weekends harder because my granddaughters are usually over for at least one night. They always convince me to get them treats. I guess that is what a Grandmother does. Lately my husband has been buying all kinds of junk. When I started bagging the groceries this week somehow he had slipped past me brownies, ice cream, chocolate bars and mini lemon cakes. I am putting my foot down and that junk is not coming into the house every week. 😂 Too tempting! I know it would be much easier to stick to the plan on the weekends and have more calories during the week. There is always this weekend.
