Goals for the week!

Had an OKAY last couple of days.  It's the weekend!  I will say that I picked up a chocolate chip cookie today and put it down... WITHOUT eating it.  :)  I also passed on the donuts in Sunday School this morning! Small things, but BIG steps for me!

Tomorrow I begin making a very conscious effort to pay attention to what I'm thinking, eating, and doing.  No more "stinkin' thinkin'"! 

"So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." --1 Corinthians 10:31

This week's goals:

1. Journal... EVERYTHING!!!  I will make better choices if I know I'm going to have to journal every bite that goes into my mouth.  I have even set my phone to text here so that I have no excuses!

2. Rest.  This is a tough one for me!  I need to make myself choose a healthy bedtime, and stick with it!  My starting target is to be in bed by 11pm every night this week.  I'm really bad about staying up LATE!  I know that rest is a huge part of being healthy.  I want to be more of a morning person, but it's hard when I'm up late everynight.  I really should go to bed earlier than 11, but I'm going to start there and work toward an earlier time.  Maybe next week I'll move it back to 10:45!

3. Drink Water, and LOTS of it!  I have never been one to drink water.  I have got to start making myself do this!  My daily target is 6 bottles a day.  That sounds like a lot of water to me, but I know it really isn't.  Plus, if I take a huge drink of water everytime I think I'm needing something to eat, it could make a big difference!

Rice chex w/sugar and 2% milk. black coffee. Baby steps!

Watermelon!

dinner:
2 pieces of pizza, 1 breadstick, and marinara.
route 44 diet cranberry limeade
1 scoop ice cream w/spoonful oreos, caramel, chocolate syrup.

on my 3rd bottle of water for the day!

Lunch...
Lettuce from the garden topped with tuna salad that I made with tuna, light mayo, relish, craisins, and apple.  6 crackers, and mandarin oranges on the side.  Water w/Special K protien pack.  I'm full!

Special K Cinnamon Pecan, 2% milk, black coffee. Parked far away and now walking to class! Today's goal: begin journaling... no cheating!!!

HA! It worked!

Testing...
