I need to commit to myself that my plan will make me a healthier individual & I can’t let the very brief enjoyment that junk food brings derail my plan.
You can do it - I can totally relate - my hope this month is to flip the negative narrative about getting healthy - I know I have always seen it as a goal but thought of the food as a chore/boring etc. but I must say I haven't missed it too much so far (early days yet though) - but I think that the yummy meals I have been having are helping to lower that craving.... and of course knowing I REALLY have to do something now - Drs orders.
We are planning a trip to WDW for a year and a half from now. Yep I already started planning. I am nuts.
Not nuts at all! It will also give you motivation to be at your best to enjoy your days without getting tired and having gorgeous new Disney pics you can be proud of
I am determined to hit all of these goals.
You can do it
Unlike all you lucky ducks, I have no planned Disney trips in the near future, just here for the pixie dust and accountability.
Don't worry you are not alone there. It pretty much costs my family $4k just to get the USA nevermind all the other associated vacation costs ... it will be sometime before we can get back again. Although, DS18 is considering applying for the international cultural exchange program at WDW, he has to wait until he has been studying for 12 months .... so if he does go ahead, and get accepted, I would want to come with him at first to help him settle in - might have to leave the twins at home for that, even though they would hate that.
Starbucks no more than 4 times... so once per week.
You've got this .... I know Starbucks is your weakness
I swear I was never like this, though my mom says I was.
I know, I am sure I was a wonderful teenager too!
Here is how her hair turned out
Cute
I know my nephew is only going to be 8 months old, but I’m so excited to experience Disney again with a little one
Awww, that will be fun
What's your favorite trick for staying motivated to exercise when life just gets crazy?
I really don't have this down myself yet. Do you have any exercise equipment at home? I always ponder if that would help me a little more - as it is right there and I don't have to go anywhere to do it. But then again there are so many clips on YouTube these days that I should just find myself one and commit - but after working all day, cooking dinner and making sure kids have done homework - it all seems a bit exhausting sometimes. At the moment I have 1 day per week that is a definite as a friend and I committed to walk together.
I have mostly kept the 70lbs off I lost years ago but it’s not easy! I had to lose the 20+ that had crept back on over the years but got back to my goal weight before the holidays.
That is inspirational - I think we could learn a lot from you
And since I walk I can't even use icy roads as an excuse!
What about icy sidewalks ??
Like right now I really, really want a treat, but I'm about 100 calories over for the day so I won't be eating anything!
Hang in there, you can do it
