    1. My goal for September (This September I will...")
    For September, I am continuing to clear out an old filing cabinet
    (Using ‘am’ as opposed to ‘I will … ‘ as it gives me less scope to cop out.
    2. The small actions I am taking to accomplish this goal
    a) Sort and declutter papers > 10 minutes.
    b) Store essential papers; shred/bin the rest
    3. The trigger or cue to remember to do my habit.
    Reminder on phone.

    This September I will continue my pre-tracking habit and will be #WalkingTowardsFall

    1. I am a planner who pre-tracks her daily food consumption.

    ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ ♥️ 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
    Success days are noted with a heart ♥️ and any missed opportunities with a 👎🏻

    2. I am #WalkingTowardsFall and I purposefully walk outdoors every day to take in the sights and sounds of the change of the seasons.
    🍁 ☁️ 🍁 🍁 ☁️ ☁️ 🍁 🍁 🍁 ☁️ 🍁 🍁 ☁️ 🍁 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
    Success days are noted with a 🍁 and any missed opportunities with a ☁️

    Pre-tracking is going well and it has helped me be intentional about my macros and nutrition so far this month. Attending more closely to the waking outdoors now that the most significant impact of my immune suppression medication change is over 🤞🏻

    @donna25trinity , on the decluttering, I found Dana K White’s book Decluttering at the Speed of Life as a great help on where to start. I borrowed the audiobook from the library.

    My month is going well weight dropping, spinning increasing and on a whole paying more attention to what goes in my mouth. Some days are harder than others but it’s working I just need to remember that there is no wrong food just some to have in moderation.

    Sept 17♥️ Finally!! 1,747 cals.
    That is much lower than the 200 decreases committed to do. I’m serious about turning this around. I placed a nap over doing other things…I placed a walk - even though tired - as a top priority

    Thank you @TerriRichardson112 for your comment paraphrased hete: “Just for today.” Helped a lot

    Thanks you guys. The cool weather hit the last two days. That tends to be when I can lose (hot tea helps fill me up!!).

    Hello everyone! I am back from my conference in Charleston, SC. My first professional conference since the pandemic. A good trip as I met lots of people in person who I had only seen behind a screen. But I am glad to be back home and back to my habits and routines. The conference was held at a resort which was lovely, but the fitness center was several buildings away and I just couldn’t talk myself into an early morning walk when it was so hot and humid. Most days I still averaged 6000 to 8000 steps, but there was so much sitting and eating and eating and sitting. So glad to be back home and doing my morning cycling via BitGym (today I cycled around Panama), VR, and treadmill walking and reading. As much as I enjoyed the trip, I love my daily routines.

    My focus this month is on being more patient with a certain person on my weekly Zoom call. So far so good! It’s amazing what a few minutes of deep breathing and mental preparation does for diffusing stress. It also helps to remember the many good qualities the person who dominates our conversations has. They have many wonderful attributes. This is just one of the things that’s a bit harder to take. I have annoying tendencies too. We are all works in progress.
