newnormal's Journal, 02 February 2016

Got a lot of non-work stuff done yesterday with my son moving home, getting him going in a direction. Today will probably be more of the same but I need to get more work stuff done along with it.

I did ok on food yesterday but I'm realizing that some of what I ate was emotional (not bad, but emotional just the same). I'm letting life "happen" to me instead of living it intentionally in some aspects. That isn't healthy, it won't get me where I want to go (weight or otherwise) and it's not how I want to live. I'm glad I noticed it. Now to notice it as it's happening and change it...

It's supposed to be 80, partly/mostly sunny today so hopefully I'll get time to get out and take a walk break. I need to get my endurance back up for when my dad comes to visit so we can go walking either on the trail or the beach. I can't go as long as he does (he's a regular long-distance walker) but I don't want to be dying at 2 miles either.

Take charge of your day. Be proactive in your mindset and what you do. Don't let it happen TO you.

Have a great day buddies...

Rockies, I'll completely share. We won't get another rainy day til Thursday. 80/81 today and tomorrow then mid 60s to mid 70s the rest of the week. January is usually as "winter" as we get. I like the 60s-70s but the 40s-50s make it hard to be comfortable when it's in a long stretch. Below that I just cocoon lol.

Great perspective Ms. Newnormal...love reading your journal. Live life on life's terms but try to realize when your going down the wrong road...before you get to far...thanks for your daily enthusiasm and hope. Enjoy the day!

Emotional eating is a common trigger and something I still struggle with. Good for you recognizing it and doing something about before it becomes a problem. Send some of those warm temps this way!
