    Today’s meals

    Breakfast – 1/2 Udi’s everything bagel, 1 egg

    Lunch – Italian Tuna & White bean salad

    Dinner – Italian hot turkey sausage burger, wilted spinach

    Doing pretty good with slower eating, small bites & chewing, AND avoiding dairy and wheat (yesterday too).

    I need to stop punishing myself by grieving over the foods I can’t have and…[Read more]

  • Today is busy for me. Grocery shopping and then prepping some breakfasts and lunches for the week. Laundry (because I didn’t get it done yesterday due to cuddling my 4 month old grandson) and trying to make a dent in cleaning out my bedroom. Steps and liquids will find a place in there somewhere!

    Breakfast – Click protein coffee

    Lunch – Stuffed…[Read more]

    1. Follow the “you screwed up” forgive and be curious worksheet with all my heart
    2. visit the foodie nation 2 times a day. Once at 8:00am and once at 10:00 pm.
    3. Walk! Take my children and my dogs for a walk 3 times this week. The days and times will very so I will post in daily with my plan for the day.
  •  I am going to repeat last week’s goal of getting at least 90 grams of protein every day. It really helped me stay on  track last week.

  • I was a little below 90 on 1 day, but my average for the week was 92 so I’m  calling it a win!

     

    I did forget to check in during the week. So, I need to step that up this week.

  • This week’s goal will focus on menu planning and recipes.  I find myself in a bit of a “rut” and am going to research some new recipes

    1 new breakfast idea

    1 new lunch idea

    2 new dinner recipes

    2 new snack ideas

    I will try at least 1 of the above this week (if I have ingredients for more, I will try more)

    This morning I planned meals for the week and went grocery shopping already.

    Breakfast/Lunch – Lactaid cottage cheese with tomato, garlic powder, basil (I love cottage cheese and Breakstone’s live active cottage cheese is the only one I will eat, this was a big step for me–thus the reason for doctoring it up in order to make it more…[Read more]

  • Well, I have been dodging the inevitable and it’s time for me to get serious about what food goes into my mouth. My primary doctor has been after me to avoid/eliminate both dairy and wheat from my diet because I keep having digestive issues. I do good for a few days, but being a glutton for punishment, I end up having these foods again and my…[Read more]

  • I have no idea what today is going to bring! I’m hoping to get to the grocery store today because I’d really like some salmon for dinner, but I don’t know if that will happen. We’re keeping one of the grandsons this afternoon and evening. Not the “never slow down” two year old but little four month old Jackson! We have plans to go look at new…[Read more]

  • Mini- pledge check-in week 2

    I can’t say if the starchy veggies worked out or not. I don’t know if it was stress or a stomach bug, but my digestion has gone back into an uproar. However, it did start on the day I ate butternut squash! Anyway, I went back to very carefully choosing my foods and as of yesterday, things seem back to normal. My…[Read more]

  • I’m going to shift gears with my pledge this week and instead of food, I’m going to work on my fitness plan. I am going to add some high intensity training to my work out. While I’d love to say that I’m going to do this three times this week, I know myself (and my life) well enough to say that I’m hoping to do this once this week. Any more than…[Read more]

  • Okay, call me ignorant, but what exactly is a virtual 5k? In fact, what is a 5k at all? I have never done this before and am interested in in finding what is involved, especially with just having my knee replaced.

    I also posted this question in the open discussion forum.

    Thanks.

    Okay, call me ignorant, but what exactly is a virtual 5k? In fact, what is a 5k at all? I have never done this before and am interested in in finding what is involved, especially with just having my knee replaced.

    Not sure this is the right forum to post this, so I am also posting in the ask a question get an answer forum.

    Thanks.

  • I bad, haven’t been updating in daily accountability forum. For some reason I have been easily distracted this week, although did keep busy.

    Anyway, I was successful most of the time by slowing down my eating and concentrating on smaller bites and chewing, although all my food choices have not been the best.

    To answer your question @nikki-massie,…[Read more]

    Gym “rest day” but did 2nd Pilate’s workout. Steps are down today .. Spent time catching up on some reading and paperwork today

  • Robin Miller replied to the topic August 11 in the forum Daily Check-Ins 7 years, 3 months ago

    I’m sitting in the waiting room at the Bone and Joint Institute in Temple. My husband just went back to have an injection in his back. I have no idea what the rest of the day will bring. I have a bottle of water to drink and my Kindle to read. Breakfast was a Quest bar in the car on the drive here and don’t have a clue what the rest of my meals…[Read more]

  • Well I didn’t make my goal yesterday of doing the fitness room for 30 minutes but I did log my food and I ate pretty well.

    Today I got up and walked with the morning walking group and got a medal! (I’ll post a pic of it later.) Today is a full convention day. So far I had a low-fat Eggs Benedict and some fruit. Lunch is on my own so I’ll…[Read more]

    I’m so glad you posted!

    Today’s email was really about stressing that there is something happening here on this site that may seem small…so small that you may not notice it happening. But I see it! I see folks building better habits. I see folks trying things they wouldn’t try before. I see people trying harder at things they want but found…[Read more]
