Morning all!

How is everyone on Tuesday? Mondays really do feel like I'm recovering from the weekend and I'm not even out partying like the old days...

Sorry not to be on last night, it was super windy and a tree fell on the transformer box outside our house, so power was out while they fixed it.too bad my son was already asleep it was quite a show of chainsaws, police, cherry pickers and tree trimmers!

So, I'm having a rough eating time, these days...any help would be great! Let's all try and do it, yes??? I had this idea this morning - it really is as simple as just doing it - over and over and over again choosing EVEN when things are rough or stressed or...that's what's been difficult for me lately...i am totally slipping...

i am going to pack yellow peppers, carrots, and an apple for snacks this morning (for me and the lad).

Have a great day!

CHALLENGE FOR THE DAY:

Take the time to support one team member on his/her goals by an email, booster, or note here in the forum

AND

Move your body for at least 1 hour today - does not have to be consecutive - as Lyssa reminded us in her blog yesterday. Tanis - cleaning counts in my book!

AND

In honor of Nyssa's idea of swapping (and Dianne's enthusiasm)- let's all trade one unhealthy food/drink for a healthy one today - let us know what you choose!

Those are great challenges Debbie

EXACTLY! Lots of peeps aren't ready for that commitment.

Hi Diamonds, I've had computer troubles the last couple of days so haven't been able to post.
my goals:
To swap coffee for water and biscuits for apples
I just had an apple now & wondering why I don't eat them more often they taste so good!
To lose 2 lbs
To eat right at all the work functions I have to go to this week.

i have that with the apples, too, they really are so tasty!

so i swapped some bready snack for carrots and bell peppers and took an extra long walk with dog/kid this morn before our morning plans.

Great job everyone. I didn't swap a food....but I was eyeing the chips when I got home so I grabbed a Diet Coke. I know pop isn't that great for you either, but I didn't eat the chips.

it's tough to hang onto that commitment for sure!

you doing well this week?

Ok I have been feeling sorry for myself and I'm going to honest I have been eating my emotions away...I'm going to account for my actions by telling you all I have been very bad since the weekend with food. I came online tonight to read some blogs and get inspired even though I can't exercise to the extent I want to. I feel a lot better now and intend to get back on track.

Talk to you all in the am.
