So yesterday turned out to be a very productive day. 3 hours of climbing up and down ladders and reaching for nails plus 3 hours of deep cleaning back of shop. I wasn't planning on doing that, but since already dirty figured I might as well get it as clean as I like it!!!!! If only I could get the new guy to understand that that is how I like it at the end of every day!!!!!

Sam- I love your self affirmation goal! Everyone should like themselves! It is hard sometimes, but when asked what the favorite part of your body is, you aught to have an answer! Great work!

Tuesday, January 10

I hope everyone continues to do so well and make SMART goals. They may be only daily ones, but the turtle did win the race!:bigsmile:

My goals for Tuesday

Continue to journal honestly did
Drink my water and green tea and not drink coffee did
Follow my diet plan did
Get to the gym. didn't get there

today was crazy at work. I worked until 7:15 pm, was supposed to be done at 5pm. So dinner was late, then I had to stop at the store for more bananas and strawberries. Way to worn out to go to the gym... and my back is still hurting really bad. Exercise would probably help so my top priority for tomorrow will be exercise. Good news. I did not stress eat. I sniffed my roses.

I want to be in this group!
Goals for Wednesday:

1. Stick to my 1200-1300 for the last day before I can bump back to 1600.
2. Get some of my work done for my home business.
3. Sleep in!
4. Clean one room in the house.

I am glad I went on my profile page and looked at recent forums! I don't know how I forgot I joined this group. I feel bad for not logging my goals since the 4th but starting again today. So, my goals for tomorrow, Jan. 11th are :

1. finish all of my chapter 1 work for my art history class.
2. drink more water!
3. look up healthy recipes for low-calorie desserts
4. have a good day at work and get my new cartilage earring changed so it won't be swollen so bad and hurt!

Tuesday, January 10
1. Water- 10-12 glasses (you would think this would go without saying by now)- Done
2. Wii for 30 minutes-- Nope
3. Finish paper work and write order for work. Only worked in back yesterday, so have to catch up again up front! wrote order
4. Do something unexpected for one person today!- I made conversation with a cute couple, who just seemed to want to talk, even though the back of my brain was going( I have things I am trying to do!)

So yesterday didn't quite go as planned. I did end up exercising- I had to organize attic at work, take down boxes of invoices and put more up there. About 45 mins of moving boxes and climbing the ladder. I can forgive myself the no Wii. I did get orders done for work, but not the rest of paperwork.Everyone is back to work today, so paperwork is it!

Welcome to all the new folks! Love the goals! Keep it up!

pmjsmom-prayers and hugs!

Hi my name is Ash, I have never been a small lady but since having three kids things have gotten out of control. It is time to stop using but I had kids as a crutch and get off my tushy! I have NEVER stuck with anything, so I am hoping like crazy it clicks this time.
