Sitting at my desk.
First task. Get my house back in a semblance of order. (done).
Second task. Figure out the new weightwatchers phone app. Not intuitive for me at all. My saved meals have disappeared, and even if they hadn’t, I’m not sure with the new smartpoints if they would be correct. So delete, delete, delete.
Third task. Get my to do list together. Tons of little papers in my purse with things to not forget to do.
Here I come 2016.
Weighed in today at WW. Gained again. Not a big surprise given this week's shenanigans. On the plus side, this week has been a lot easier than the last 10. Lots of stuff getting wrapped up. Lots of deliverable dates being met. Some, unfortunately, were missed. 😟 The deliverable dates I missed are the ones that effect me and no one else. (Easy to put yourself last in the priority list.) Need to pick up the pieces and address. Also on the plus side, I had a chance to think a couple of times. Time to look around my house and see the havoc (Sent me to the cookie cupboard). Other good news: Week 2 with the fixed teeth. They seem to be holding up. 😊 Heaven!!! So the struggle to stay in the fitness game and the happy game continues. Happily my favorite WW mtg attendee was at the meeting today after being away for work since July. DELIGHTED to see her. Had a quick "post meeting" meeting on the street. I totally miss the tumblr comment feature. 😕 both leaving and receiving. Babble. Babble. Babble. Thanks for reading this far.
Harder than I remember. Weird.
Day two back on plan. Doing good. Thinking coffee. This is gonna take a while.
If you are a fitblr, liftblr or health blog trying to balance workouts and healthy living with the challenges of parenting I’d love to follow you!
Can't believe it.
Back in the game today. Up 4.6 since my last weigh in Sept 24. (Sigh)
A few weeks ago, before all heck broke loose, I pruned and repotted an old plant. Since then this happened. Gives me hope. There IS light at the end of this tunnel and I don't think it's a train. 😊
First time in a long time. 😊
healthifiedpath flooded my dash w love. Just what I'm needing these days!!
Down 1.2. Another week in the right direction. Hanging in by chubby-chin-chin. Keep trucking.
So life stepped in yesterday. Ended up with 50 point day. ☀️ I tracked it all. ☀️ it didn't rain ☀️ snuck in a detour to my Dad's. (He loves ice cream and sharing. Jeez those points accumulate!)
Go me. Turning this ship.
Catching a happy wave. 😊
Out for dinner w my 17yo.
Her soccer team got crushed today.
Getting back to it! Where are all my WW people at? I’d like to find some new, active trackers to follow, as well as my same old favorites! :)
Re-blogging for all my other ww folks!
Not me, but Signal boosting. I know mystoryfortheaudienceoftheworld is, but I’m sure there are lots more.
Yea me! Get to reblogging my ww followers! :)
For some reason, my original went missing! :( thanks for the reblogs and all the love! So excited to follow all of you!
Still here!
Ok, not the fabulous results I was wishing for this week but it’s fair and I will take it as it shows movement in the right direction for a change.
Ankle continues to improve. I upgraded from an old ace bandage to a newer Velcro based model and immediately felt a nice improvement. My steps are still off as I balance between exercising my ankle and making it feel worse. Back is stable and I have a chiropractor appt next week. Again, things are moving in the right direction.
Today at WW the theme was to identify why you started and why you came today. So, here goes:
👉 I feel like I’m wearing a “fat coat” under my clothes. Like a beefed up pair of long underwear layers. I carry my fat proportionally so it’s everywhere. Fingers to toes. Boobs to back. I want that going, going, gone.
👉 When my vegetable/water intake is down I feel like I accumulate a layer of slime/gunk in my gastro track. The feeling dissipates gradually unfortunately as I make good food choices so I never get a “dose” of positive feedback -only the delayed absence of the gunked up feeling. Faith it is until the end of September.
I need to get back on my daily happy/gratitude habit. It’s easy to curl up in a ball of negativity when things get challenging.
😊 down 0.8 this week
😊 the universe is helping by revamping WW when I needed it.
😊 I’ve started thinking about planning/tracking food again.
😊 I made visible progress on paper piles this week.
😊 kids are back at school. Both have a lineup of experienced, solid teachers (which after last year I will never, ever take for granted again!!)
😊 the weather has been great. Getting cooler. Not raining during commuting hours.
