Morning Coaches/Buddies!
So the piano dealer has my big fat deposit cheque now and we just need to wait for the piano to get here from Miami. (Maybe I should just take a vacation instead, LOL.) I'm a bit uncertain about how the financing is going to work but the dealer has shown indications that he wants to be flexible ... Trying to stay in the moment and trust that it will all work out as it should.
The meditation class was great and the instructor is encouraging me to take the meditation instructor course, which is running over a weekend in June. I am seriously considering this. I know the new group will need teachers and I want to see it succeed. I had extra WW points left over today so I stopped into Starbucks for a latte and a shortbread cookie on my way home.
Nearly an hour of spontaneous walking yesterday! And the scale is starting to show an encouraging trend ...
Today is clarinet lesson day, otherwise known as Ibuprofen Wednesday, lol. Also I'll be doing the hunger experiment while I play for all those kids ... wish me luck
Today is also
Day 13 - Overcome Cravings, so I'm reviewing those techniques as well.
RunningFree - CONGRATS on your new job prospect!! Great news!
onebyone - Big kudos for tracking on fitday.com and setting goals for yourself!! This is very positive stuff.
gardenerjoy - I am restraining myself from making a rude joke about promiscuous trees, lol. No doubt you've heard them all already. Good idea to focus on after dinner eating!
tarte - Good idea to reinforce the Week 3 behaviours. I'll be starting Week 3 on Friday so we'll be at the same spot!
Ann (Newlifestyle) - Isn't it great that the spring weather is finally here? I hear that many people are dissatisfied with the new point system on WW and are going back to the old plan, so you're not alone. It is working for me so far, but that's just one person's experience. Hope you are able to figure out what's going on with your knee.
Shepherdess - Yay for improved eating days! Sounds like lambing is pretty intense physically (for you and the ewes, lol).
Beverlyjoy - Kudos for giving yourself credit on a less-than-perfect day (which for me is nearly all of them!) How great that you may be back to work this summer!!
Debbie (Lexxiss) - Man, those special occasion dinners are a challenge. Credit for coming up with a new plan!
maryblu - keep posting ... we all benefit from your experience and wisdom!
MaryContrary - (((Hugs))) I am very glad to hear you have found a therapist ... sounds like a difficult situation. Big credit for keeping the Beck behaviours going regardless. Gender studies is such a fascinating field. I imagine it's changed quite a bit since I was in school.
BillBE - Great job avoiding the dreaded samples! I often wish there was a Whole Foods here in town, but then when I hear about the samples I'm just as happy it's an hour away, lol.
ChefJoona - Sorry you're feeling low - kudos for an on plan day though!
pamatga - Challenges can really help with accountability. I lost a whole bunch of weight that way a few years ago. It blew up in my face when I realized I didn't have a maintenance strategy. That was before the Beck books came out ... now I see how valuable they are! Glad to hear you will still be posting here regularly.
Wishing everyone a great (Ibuprofen) Wednesday!
cheers
Erika
