Rockinrobin came up with a great idea to make these threads monthly. Sounds pretty good to me. :)

No one else did anything good for themselves yesterday? Iamfire did - she posted on the Dec. thread. :) :)
Reality starts today. In other words, vacation is over. It's back to the grind, and being gone almost every night of the week. I will have to work hard at doing something for ME every day. ;) Do something for yourSELF today! :) |
What I did for me today:
I packed a good healthy food bag for work: banana, yougurt, almonds, pear, orange and a WW Smart Ones. |
I ate a healthy breakfast instead of the sugary oatmeal and toast that the family ate. Then I worked out, showered and stuck to my new face cream routine. It sounds corny but I'm a wash and go ivory girl kinda chick and lately I've been really into using a quality face cream and then applying a bit of make up. Makes me feel so.. put together throughout my day.
Oh - and I'm wearing sexy black lace underwear! Just for ME. :D |
made myself REAL coffee this morning to tackle both bloat and headache.
|
Jen - YAY for thinking ahead and coming prepared! :)
Ladyinwhite - very nice! Hey, have you tried the new Quaker oatmeal in packets - the one with lower sugar content? I adore maple and brown sugar, but rarely eat it because of the calorie and sugar content. Well, I bought the lower sugar kind, and it's YUMMY! I had that, egg whites, and skim milk for breakfast. Ennay - real coffee is best! ;) LOL iamfire - I'm jealous! I need a massage. :cool: I've already got my workout in today, and my first two meals of the day have been very healthy. |
Hey all,
Did my 4 mile walk this morning. Will be doing abs, squats and lunges tonight. |
I woke up at 6am to go to the gym.
And something I didn't do, was buy cookies or chocolate when I went to the grocery store (damn those checkout aisle tempters!) |
Today is my "officially back on track" day and I think I'm off to a good start. I did my workout DVD this morning (needed it badly), and I took a long walk with the kids. It's more exercise than I've had in 6 weeks. I'm also still well within my calorie range for the day. I feel really optimistic about everything today. Love to hear what everyone else is doing for themselves too!

I am back to 3FC after a 3 day break! I have been running around, visiting friends in another city and eating out all the time for the last few days.
Today, I am back at 3FC and back to eating my regular foods again. |
I took a nap. I'm fighting a cold and it was nice to get a little extra sleep. I also got in my exercise goals for the day-just so you don't think I'm a total slacker.
|
I went grocery shopping and didn't buy anything chocolatey or salty like chips or anything.
I know it sounds simple but usually when I buy something like ice cream I rationalize at the store that I'll eat it in moderation and I never do... but out of sight out of mind! |
Finally got around starting the paint job in my living room. I think I was mentally waiting for the holidays and everything to be ready. Anyway, I now have a big dark brick red accent wall I will do the rest during the week. For my very first paint job it isn't horrible, but will need to go over spots on the ceiling again.

It wasn't really a struggle. I just said to myself, "Nope, I don't want any candy." Heck, I even walked right by it. lol Sounds silly, but that's a big thing for me. |
Well, last night I decided to NOT give in to my emotions and eat. So there. :)
I woke up with a tinge of anxiety still, but I ate a healthy breakfast anyway. |
