"If you fail to plan, then you're planning to fail."I bet you've heard that quote a thousand times or more. I know I have.
But, you know what? It's a great thing to keep in mind.
I haven't mentioned it lately, but I'm doing good with my diet and fitness. I'm still really enjoying using myfitnesspal.com. I'm keeping that quote in mind when I do my food journaling. It's kinda fun. Every morning it's like a big puzzle that I need to make fit...
so I can be fit :-)
I'm in control...and girls I love being in control.
I sit down every morning and toss around some ideas and plan out my day. My "wants" for breakfast and lunch sometimes have to be deleted or adjusted. That way I won't get a surprise at dinner. I don't want to find out that I have no calories left. And, of course, I make sure there is some chocolate budgeted in every.single.day. Sometimes twice.
I'm finding (for me) that planning ahead can make the difference between success and failure.
Hugs from the beach!

You are doing great my friend. I need to check out that website. I keep plugging along too. Last night, I tried zumba for the first time. Oh my, but it really is a good workout. Have a great workout.
Planning always works for me! But then sometimes....I give in to temptation!!! It's so hard to stay on track....but just remember we always have choices in life and it's important to make the choices that bring us overall joy and happiness....not just happiness for the moment:):)
Congrats to your progress....you are so inspiring!
Can I come live with you, so you can help me get fit for my 50th class reunion? Seriously, you're doing so well. Proud of ya, girl. Keep up the good work!! ((hugs))
Planning is the key to all things healthy! I am trying (no going to) take off 10 pounds and I know planning is what it is all about! Have a great Friday!
Right on the money this morning! Planning is such a big part of success. So happy you are doing so well. Have a great weekend

You are so smart! I never thought of looking at a menu online and deciding. That kind of thing throws me off every time!
yay for you! :)
I'm so proud of you! That's awesome! I try to plan ahead if I know that I'm going out to eat someplace. For years, I've looked online at the menus and nutritional information and decided ahead of time what to order. I'm finding it difficult to do that up here since we normally eat at local places and the nutritional info isn't available or I've found it difficult to calculate the information for the food I've been preparing. Keep up the good work, girl! You are doing a great job!
Have a great weekend!

YAY for you!!! :D I agree, you gotta plan. Planning can make all the difference. I keep a food journal too and I know when I've blown it and I know when I'm not drinking enough water. It really helps me stay in control of where I am with my weight loss goal.
Love Bonefish, one of my favorite restaurants. You are very clever to check out the info before going, I need to pray for more willpower in my eating habits.
Wow, I'm so impressed! So, what did you eat at Bonefish? We go there a lot and I'd be interested to know what has the least calories. :)
How I wish I had your will power! Last year when I was "getting fit" for my wedding, I'd look up restaurant menus and calories too. But I have been lacking on that! Yesterday we were coming home from Detroit and stopped at McDonald's for lunch. I had conviced myself I was going to get a salad...until we walked in and I smelled the french fries. So much for getting a salad! :)
