Logging everything first thing.
Exercising.
Gardening.
Housework.
A busy day should keep my mind off the snacks.
Weigh in day tomorrow, need to be good 😇5 -
2 hours in the garden, shifting 3 tonnes of gravel - on my own 💪🥵4

Losing another 1lb this morning. Only another 6lb to go to get back to my target weight. In yer face Covid!! 🤣10

I sometimes split the difference with pizza. One slice + side salad. Eat salad first and save the yummy for last!
Good suggestion - but sometimes a loaded salad IS "the yummy." One thing that has worked for me is learning to make flavorful dishes with healthful ingredients that taste so good I turn my nose up at the commercial crap.

I burned over 400 calories from exercise yesterday. As someone who is ramping up after being inactive for a long time, that's a lot for me.10

65 minute walk in the glorious sunshine. It really set me up for the day!10

Last night I didn't want to go for a walk. It was an hour past sunset and 96°!! I told myself I didn't have to walk--I just had to get across the street to the park. Once I was there, I could turn around and go home. Of course, once I was there it seemed silly not to go ahead and get my step goal. My dog was VERY pleased.11

I upped my water intake. I realized that some of my "hunger pangs" was my body telling me that I was dehydrated8

I'm doing the same as Bellissima today. I have taken my eye off the ball in the last couple of days as far as my water intake is concerned and the Snack Monster raised its ugly head last night and it got the better of me.
So more water and more protein and fibre for me today.9 -
A bus strike worked for me today because it has meant that I've had to walk everywhere!! 😆8
-
Definitely tracking my water habits has helped4

Bringing a mini-fridge to work to keep in my office. Now I can prep my breakfast and lunch for the week on Sunday to bring Monday morning and stock in the fridge. Saves me from grabbing unhealthy food on the go because I had no plan, time getting ready in the morning by eliminating packing food, and gas on my lunch hour going to out to lunch.8

Saved some calories for Thai food. It was healthy and filling, and felt like a treat since I love it!4

Yummy 😋 I love Thai food too.2 -
I had an apple with a teaspoon of peanut butter instead of reaching for the bar of chocolate. Really tasty and much healthier!4

Thank you, I'm OK with peanut butter. It's Lotus Biscoff that I can't have in the house. One teaspoon of that turns into half a jar!! 😳🤣1 -
Making sure I have healthy snacks ready and eating lots of protein and fibre. A long walk and an upper body dumbbell workout 💪4

Planning and getting my exercise done early.3

Yesterday was tough but I made it work. I was super hungry and wanting to eat all day. I managed to limit the damage by having one small snack that only put me 100 over my calorie goal. Then I did more exercise than planned to make up for it too.
Learning how to handle imperfect days is an important skill for me to develop.10
