Admittedly, the way I worded it may have been confusing…lol.
But yeah I’m more concerned with you originating your food at home (so buy it, bring it home, figure out how it all goes together in your day). And pulling back from foods you purchase “on the go.”
So I should probably reword that one. Working on it!

<p style=”text-align: left;”>I’m in recovery mode. It was close to 100 degrees here yesterday and part of my grandson’s birthday party was held outside. Today I’m running errands and catching up with the laundry that I usually do on the weekend.</p>

Nikki Massie started the topic QOTD: What are your "non-negotiables"? in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 5 months ago
I’ve been thinking about this concept a lot. Non-negotiables.
I feel like when I see someone really successfully losing weight and maintaining their weight loss and living good habits in the long-term, it’s because they’ve made doing those things non-negotiables. They tend to say things like, “I don’t eat X” or “I have to go work out this…[Read more]

Monday! (Why do I sound so excited?)
Today I work and then (gasp!) I think I may have a free evening for once. I’d like to go to the lake and walk because I haven’t in a while.
Woke up this morning and took the dog for a walk. Got back, and filled my water cup for the first time (20 oz.), got that down, did breakfast (egg+ wheat toast) and then…[Read more]

@kathy-p pre-made salads are fine! Remember I said you don’t have to make stuff from scratch.
The point is to get you into planning mode. Quest bars are ok if you’ve ordered them and planned for them. Pre-made salads are ok, as long as you’ve accounted for them.
I don’t eat all food that I personally cook from scratch. But I do plan out what I…[Read more]

Nikki Massie started the topic Vitamin Show & Tell POSTPONED in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 5 months ago
This was originally scheduled for tonight but I bumped it to next week as I discovered I need to order more vitamins!
I’d like to participate with everyone else so I am pushing this back.
Also this gives me a chance to say more about what this is, why we are doing it, and how often so that folks participate.

Question: Regardless of how much water you’ve been getting…is the pursuit of water starting to feel routine to you?
It is to me!

I’m super excited because @kathy-p and I are going to be workout buddies! Basically we’re going to agree to work out one day this week and check in with each other when we show up for the workout. This is going to be mutually beneficial because I have been inconsistent about activity at best, neglectful at worst! So looking forward to that. I also…[Read more]

Today was my grandson’s birthday party and I made it thru without eating anything not on my plan. I’m sure I probably haven’t met my nutrition goals for today but I’m okay with that. I made it through the day!
The rest of the week will be trying to get my house back to normal and catching up with the things I normally get done on the weekends and…[Read more]

I’m at 76 ounces and am about to get something more to drink. Snack will continue to be closer to bedtime so I can sleep through the night. And this is the first time I have actually been plugged in today!

It’s 8:20 in the evening here and I have literally been going nonstop since 5:45 this morning. Today was my grandson’s birthday party. Some came early, some came late (the party was scheduled for 2-5 PM). Everyone left late. Like over two hours late. I’ve finally finished picking up and cleaning up and now am enjoying a little bit of peace and…[Read more]

Today has been a good day. Went to church and literally EVERYONE was there. You have to understand folks scatter during the summer at my church, so what a joy it was to see everyone there – all the kids! It was a lovely service.
From there I had a little grocery shopping to do. I prepped up some lunches for next week and finished the LAST of the…[Read more]

I’m at 68 ounces so far. I’ve also been unplugged for most of the day as we’ve been busy getting ready for our grandson’s 2nd birthday party to be held at my house tomorrow. The moving my snack closer to my bedtime has definitely improved my sleeping!

Sorry this post is so late, but I’ve been working my butt off trying to finish this photography assignment! I think I’m done. I may have to reshoot one dish but other than that…I’m done!
But my focus on snapping photos has taken away from my focus on water so…sigh. But there’s still time to make a decent showing.
Since I said we didn’t have…[Read more]

Spreadsheeters, unite! I’m going to start a new thread for this and attach the one I use. A friend made it a long time ago and I’ve used it ever since. You guys can post the ones you use (either as an attachment here on the site, or a Google Drive link) too!

I have totally regressed with the bathroom. I went like three times throughout the night!
But I think that’s my body expelling excess water. My scale is broken or else I’d confirm that (when your body expels excess water, you see a loss on the scale as a result.)

80 ounces of liquids in. I’m sleeping at night now that my snack is closer to the time I go to bed. I was unplugged from technology for most of the day today.

Sorry I haven’t been checking in. I’ve been prepping for my grandson’s birthday party this weekend. Today’s actually his second birthday but Sunday was picked for his party as no one has to work that day.
Breakfast was a Celebrate chocolate mint shake
Lunch was some cooked out link sausage and a cheese stick
Dinner will be chicken fajitas
