Well, I did not do the exercise for the Beck Diet Solution last night. This is the day that I am supposed to plan what I am going to eat the night before. I tell you, I do not like to sit at my desk in the evening, Sitting at my desk automatically means I am going to surf the internet and before I know it hours have gone by. So, I do not sit at my desk in the evening. I'll need to do it in the morning.
It is so hard for my to plan ahead because I am so spontaneous and just take each day as it happens. But I know I should do it because that would mean I am committed to eliminate junk food on the fly. Awww, here comes FlyLady's to do list.....
I really need to organize, my time, my eating, and my clutter. Oh, wait, "I need to declutter because you cannot organize clutter." - I am working on those baby steps. One area at a time for 15 minutes. I cannot wait until I get through all my clutter collection areas. So far, I am sticking with the shine your sink and the swish in the bathroom. It is nice just giving those area a quick wipe down rather than a deep cleaning. I think Fly Lady is on to something here. Did I mention I found my cards when I followed the Sidetracked Home Executives method? I did that when we sold our houses. Worked like a charm. I really need to get back to having a to do list.
I ate pretty much as planned yesterday, even without my list of what to eat. Other than those fig bars, I added an extra cup of coffee and some fig bars to my late morning. I am finding that hubby is eating my stash of goodies now. This means I have to be extra careful because when I was younger my sister did that to me and I would eat 'whatever' in one sitting just so she couldn't eat it. Now, I have hubby doing it to me. It kind of irritates me because we buy our separate stashes. I was getting a handle on my "I gotta eat the whole bag". These fig bars were of the more natural variety with whole grain and sweetened with juice rather than refined sugar.
We each bought a packet and he eats mine. UGH! And he is into my chocolate bars for s'mores too.-
I was going to go camping for three days, but our youngest invited us to go to the zoo with them. We decided that a family outing would be better than my solo time. It'll be so fun to do something with them. I am going to just do an one night, but I am going to pick a different park. I was going to do the longer stay at one that had a lot of trails.
Well, I am on my last cup of coffee and need to make my list of things to do and things to eat for today.
