Good morning weekenders ~ Here for accountability as always. I'd rather sleep in but just can't. Foot-good, work-sucks and I spend less than $100 for once at Costco yesterday! I ended the day with a 2nd dinner w/wine and going over 700 calories and I feel like a whale right now - no offense to actual whales...And the dodgers won - great game ending with a grand slam in the 10th, it was awesome. Today I am taking Chloe on a short hike, getting a pedicure, grocery store for a couple things. There is a little festival in town - fall themed w/car show - I might walk over and walk around. House stuff of course. We are grilling tonight and watching the original Halloween movie tonight. There is hope for a nap in there too!
QOTD - How do you deal with setbacks like going off the rails or missing your workouts? Old diet culture is deeply ingrained in me and I first beat myself like we were taught - it's very cruel. You can't be cruel to yourself and stay motivated. Self compassion whether you think you deserve it or not can help you stay motivated. When you give yourself grace and move on, you are being as kind to yourself as you would a friend. Would you be cruel to a friend? All this to say for me - I ate too much pizza and had 2 glasses of wine on top of my entire menu yesterday and while I'm mad I did it, I am moving forward no punishment. I'll get to kind words at some point - I'm work in progress.
Accountability - see above - not great for food, but 66 active minutes and 11,760 steps. 167.8 this morning - no real plan to exercise - just be semi-active today.
b- coffee, eggbeater and cheese wrap in air fryer
l - rotisserie chicken and salad
d - grilled lemon dijon chicken and asparagus
s - hot quest chips with plain greek yogurt dip
Have a great day!

Someday I would love to get one of those. You made their plane reservation That is hysterical to me. The day I started 7th grade my mom told me if I wanted laundry done, I should figure out how to use the washing Machine. Definitely a different time and a different place. I know it is for you. I get it.
Wow 7th grade. I was 7 when I made my first communion and I remember my mother taking some of the money I got for gifts to use to repair the washing machine. I had been doing laundry and turned the knob the wrong way and it was $35 for a repairman to fix it.
On Saturday I did the washing, put all the white shirts and blouses in liquid starch and hung them up to dry. They were stiff as boards. On Sunday I ironed and hung up all of the shirts and blouses for my brothers and sisters to wear to Catholic school all week.
I think I was in 7th grade when spray starch was introduced. It was such a wonderful thing to me. I could just spray the clothes and iron them and no longer had to do the starching and drying the day before. I was the oldest and I guess very responsible because I never complained or skipped chores.
