It's a Bee-YOO-ti-ful day in Pennsylvania!
And I'm having a happy "good morning!"
I didn't set the alarm--I woke up on my own around 7:30, knowing that I'd had just the right amount of sleep. It's supposed to be so cool today that I don't feel like I have to rush out and get my walk in early--I may go at noon just to enjoy the sunshine!
I'm starting the day with
healthy living days in August!
Healthy choices I want to make today:
1. I choose to take vitamins to give my body a nutritional boost!
2. I choose to drink lots of water--at least 64 oz.--to nourish my body and replenish it throughout the day!
3. I choose to exercise--walking anywhere from 2 miles to 5 miles so that I can be strong and fit and ready for a half marathon!
4. I choose to eat in a thoughtful way, choosing foods that are nutritious and good for ME!
My plan is to eat my 22 Target points and any activity points I earn; no flex today, I don't think, but they're there if I need them.
My food plan for today is still sketchy; DH and I haven't talked out our plans for dinner. Breakfast was 6 points (PB toast and coffee), lunch will be yogurt, but that leaves the Mystery Dinner. Will have to work that out later.
Worked things out with DSIL, told DD I just wasn't up to her plans (she's got plan B, anyway
), and I managed to stay away from a binge. Last night was an example of successful coping and I hope I can learn to make it a habit.
I'm off and into a new day: BRING IT ON!

Hi, Amanda and Doreen
, it's nice to have you over.
I had my vitamins, am drinking my water and have had about 13 points so far today. I'm determining now what kind of exercise I want to do. . .DD and I just got new tennis racquets--might do that after my walk, who knows. It's a bit windy, but it might be fun to try.
One slice of pizza and a nice salad for dinner tonight. I can manage with that.
'Til later,
E.
Edit:
I can manage with one slice of pizza AND SOME MORE!! It's 7:30 and we haven't had dinner yet. I'm treading some dangerous waters here. I've had about 17 points today. . .I have 8 left and 12.5 in the bank. I can do it, but I'm going to have to stay verrrrry focused. Wish me luck!
