I can’t seem to get going today. I’m sleeping at night but don’t seem to be resting. That’s making it difficult for me to get started in the mornings.
More of the same for me today. Cleaning out the house as much as I can. I got rid of a bunch of stuff that I haven’t been using out of the kitchen yesterday. I’m hoping to get more of it done…[Read more]

Today has started out at a wonderfully cool upper 60s. Such a treat for us here! I’m starting my day with a dental appointment. I have a chip in a tooth that the dentist wants to fill in as it’s a bit irritating. After that it’s back to cleaning out the house. I’ve already been “yelled” at by the dog for being 10 minutes late feeding her.…[Read more]

Since our mini pledge challenge has been extended a week, my pledge this week is to work on drinking liquids before I snack to try and keep the stress eating to a minimum.

Time to get busy and get as much cleaned out of my house as possible. That being said, I’m also going to take so time to make sure that I have what I need available so I don’t fall victim to foods that I shouldn’t be eating. I’m planning on making a BIG batch of Unjury peanut butter protein balls in chocolate and strawberry (mmmmmm! Tastes like…[Read more]

Today has been a very quiet day for me. My husband is working on his resume. I’m pretty much taking advantage of the quiet as my week will be a stressful one.
Breakfast was Greek yogurt and a power crunch protein bar.
Lunch was some turkey (I was going to have the rest of the kale salad but my husband beat me to it)
Dinner is still up in the…[Read more]

How can it be almost September already? I’m not ready for September!
Everyone at my husband’s work who’s “Voluntary Separation” forms are accepted will work their last day on Thursday. People are being fired left and right. I’ll not be surprised if layoffs start Friday (that way they don’t have to pay for the Labor Day holiday). Corporate has…[Read more]

Unfortunately, no “aha” moments. Mainly trying to stop and see if I’m really hungry, thirsty or wanting to eat out of stress. I’m definitely still doing too much stress eating.
It’s just now hit me that today ends this challenge. I was sitting here trying to decide what my next pledge was going to be. 😕

It’s been a busy day for me, also. We’ve been looking at flooring for the house all day. I’m battling a vicious headache.
Breakfast was sausage and lentil soup and some Greek yogurt
Lunch was a Quest bar in the car
Dinner will be turkey breast and some kale salad
Snacks will probably be shakes or bars

I thought that I was late checking in today, but I guess not!
I got all my steps in and most of my liquids in before lunch. Lunch was out with my sister and oldest grandson. Today’s a stressful one. It’s the deadline for turning in the “Voluntary Separation” forms at my husband’s work. We’ve chosen not to volunteer. I imagine we’ll find out soon…[Read more]

It’s supposed to rain here in central Texas but so far the sun’s still shining. I hope it will get here soon!
I also remember my children starting college. My oldest started Baylor the same week my husband started a new job. In Albuquerque. I was trying to get our house up for sale and get the two younger kids back to school. Not my favorite…[Read more]

I started my day with a dental appointment and am now killing time at the grocery store until it’s time to pick up my husband’s prescription. I’m sitting in the former food court area drinking a free cup of decaf coffee.
Breakfast – none yet unless this coffee counts
Lunch will be the roasted turkey breast and olive spread I didn’t have…[Read more]

Stress is definitely starting to take a toll on both my husband and me. Neither of us are sleeping well and our eating is becoming more of an issue. He’s eating too much and I’m not wanting to eat because everything makes me queasy. Even my favorite foods.
Working on steps (I’m having a lot of pain in my hip so this is slow) and my…[Read more]

My day started early with the dog deciding we needed to get up NOW!
I got my shopping done including the roasted turkey breast for lunches from the grocery store.
Steps are done (and no, Nikki, not on the treadmill) I have 12 ounces to go before hitting my 80 ounce goal
Breakfast was sausage and lentil soup
Lunch was some of the turkey and…[Read more]

My husband and I are working on a plan to get done all that we need to do. About to head out to look for a couple of good sized bushes to replace our small rose bushes on the front of the house. (can you say “curb appeal”?). Hubby’s going to work on his resume tonight.
Breakfast was very late (more like lunch time) and was sausage and lentil…[Read more]

My pledge this week is to concentrate on mindful eating. To stop and think about whether I’m really hungry or if it’s stress getting the best of me.
I’m definitely headed into a crazy season of my life! My focus has had to under go a radical change. Steps will have to very possibly take a distant second place to doing everything I can to finish…[Read more]

I had a bad night last night so I’m starting the day off tired. Luckily, everything I need to do today is relatively easy. Finishing cleaning everything off my kitchen counters so we can finish the back splash. A little bit of laundry that I would normally do tomorrow. A quick trip to the grocery store so we can eat this weekend. I have a roast…[Read more]

Today was a relatively good day. Ran some errands (had to get a mattress cover and pad for my grandson’s new bed. He’s being bumped up to a twin bed as his brother needs the crib). I got the kitchen mostly prepped to finish up the back splash in our kitchen this weekend. Got my steps and liquids all in.
Breakfast – protein shake
Lunch – hotdog…[Read more]
