JUST FOR TODAY... One day at a time .. Daily Commitment for 2023!

pamperedlinny · April 2023

Good morning!!!

I need to do better. I’ve slacked more often the last week of March and throughout April. Haven’t lost anything. I mean, I’m not gaining it all back either but I’ve been letting circumstances and excuses reign. I did pretty well all last week. Then on Friday night I went to the book club trivia night and ate an entire basket of tater tots. On Saturday I ended up not tracking anything at all for movie night. Not that I'm ever perfect on movie night, but I KNEW I was way over and kept eating. Self sabotage and being in my own head and letting all the stress bug me out needs to stop.

On a more positive note, I took my daughter out on Saturday morning to Chick-fil-A for a mother/daughter date. They also had Encanto characters Mirabel & Isabella there decorating flower pots, giving starter bags of seed and soil. It was fun to have some one on one time.

JFT:
☑️Drink at least 72oz water
☑️Stay under 1800 calories
☑️No coffee until 8am
☑️No food until 10am
☑️No food after book club ends
☑️Get at least 8000 steps today
☑️Small Book Club tonight - need to take something to share

Normalize putting the blankets away EVERY MORNING. Then move to doing it FIRST, along with getting dressed. What do I do about the fact that nothing really seems fun? "Having fun" is something of a chore. I need to talk to my parents about end-of-life plans (particularly funeral arrangements) and I'm not sure how to go about it. I do somewhat trust that they are capable of deciding when they need assisted living but should probably offer help in finding out what sort of place would be best BEFORE it actually becomes necessary.

14. Just for fun: Start sketching dragon on a pile of books, offering one to the armored knight, & banner that reads "Treasure should not be hoarded / It should be shared."

WFTY: Priorities. Prom really messed with me and then I had an awful day yesterday. I have GOT to buckle down. I've thought about my values but I haven't gone through all of the things I'm involved in and kind of ranked them.

2020 WFTY: Progress. 2021 WFTY: Persistence. 2022 WFTY: Focus.

I believe I have ADHD too, but have certainly learned over the years how to mask it well.

Bex, I especially wanted to say to you that you should do some research on coping techniques for some of the traits you have. Even without a diagnosis you could make like a bit easier for yourself. Its remarkable what my daughter has learned by following different people on YouTube and TikTok of all things. She has found some things that have really helped her.

I fell off the wagon again when it comes to posting. I need to be more consistent.

@pamperedlinny I like your photo, your daughter looks so like you, same lovely smile!

Morning all!

Yesterday went pretty well. I still have party leftovers in the fridge so I had a couple garlic knots for lunch... except I heated it up a bit too much and actually burned (blistered) the roof of my mouth. It feels so weird! Then again, it did make me stop eating for an hour or so. I also had my small book club last night. I took a veggie tray that I threw together and a big bottle of water. Most of the other goodies were also pretty light fare so that made it easy to stay within my goals.

I also got my newest recipe blog up this morning. If anyone wants to read it they can find it at https://www.healthyeatingwithlinda.com/post/protein-mini-donuts

Eat 3 sensible meals 2, plus toast in the evening
No mindless eating none
Only one small snack one small one
Grocery shopping yes, deliberately didn't buy any choc/biscuits

Another childcare day today. Child arrived at 7.30 am and is grumpy as he wouldn't go to bed last night and is tired. We've not had breakfast yet. It may be a long day. It's really frosty, I hope my newly planted little plants will be okay.

Yesterday was a long day, not because child was badly behaved, he was good, but because I heard "Granny!" about 3 million times! When he goes home I sit in complete silence for 15 minutes lol.

JFT Wednesday 26th

Eat 3 sensible meals
No mindless snacking
Only one snack

I have a busy few days coming up. I'll be away from home, so only eating what I've taken with me, which can only be good. Got some decorating to do, some repairs, and some meetings to arrange. I'd rather be at home doing my garden lol.

Gosh it's very quiet on here at the moment, hope everyone is doing okay.

I'm still away from home, busy painting a staircase. Have made some appointments but they are for next week, so will need to come back then. It's not a problem.

Just hopping on to report that I had such a good night's sleep last night. I only woke up 3 times, which is amazingly good for me. I'm really hoping tonight will be the same, I can't even imagine what several good nights in a row would be like, think of the energy I'd have!

Still eating the food I brought with me, so good apart from a few biscuits that sneaked in.
It has dried up, so I'm going to take a break and go for a walk into the village.

JUST FOR TODAY... One day at a time .. Daily Commitment for 2023!
