Chickie.monkey Tracks Everything. Because Science! And Accountability!

[chickie.monkey]

Overall Fitness Goal of 2018: Not to let life pass me up or cause me misery because I'm overweight and out of shape. Enjoy upcoming trips/cons instead of dreading them because I'm worried about hurting and being exhausted.

• Example: I attended ClexaCon in April and I was miserable. All the standing and walking caused me so much pain and misery that I barely had fun

 

List of trips/events through the end of the year (so far) for feel good tracking (Also including a prior event that's been attended for tracking):

   ☑ Heroes and Villains Con 5.12.18 - 5.13.18 

• Other than the usual feet hurting, I was fine. My back hurt a little, but considering it was 2 days of standing and walking, I was not nearly as miserable as the prior Con.

 

   ☐ NYC Pride, Broadway Shows, and other stuff 6.23.18 - 6.25.18 - Goal: Survive

 

   ☐ Brandy Carlisle - Red Rocks 8.11.18 - 8.13.18 - Goal: Reach the top of the Amphitheater without having a stroke/wanting to die and not crying

 

   ☐ DragonCon 8.31.18 - 9.3.18 - Goal: Be able to have fun/handle all the standing and walking/no tears of pain or exhaustion

 

   ☐ Trip to the England and Paris 10.19.18 - 10.28.18 - Goal: Enjoy the trip. See the sites, not be too exhausted or in too much pain to have fun. Go on a couple hikes (bonus goal)

 

 

Overall Life Goal of 2018: Get my house in order. It's a mess, it needs work (new floors, etc.). It looks like a den of slack and I'm tired of it.

 

 

Plans to achieve fitness goal (generally speaking):

Nourishment

• Limit Bad Food, but if I do eat it:
  • Track intake
• When Dining out, make good choices
• Watch portion sizes
  • No seconds or thirds or eating until I'm ill
  • Track if I do any of the above

 

Move

• Move at least three times a week

 

NF Challenges

• Participate in challenges. They make such a big difference

 

 

Plans to achieve life goal (generally speaking):

Purge

• Get rid of anything I don't need
• Go room by room
• Schedule pickups with the "junk people" in advance for motivation

 

Structure/Redecorate

• Get estimates
  • Floors
  • New curtains/blinds
  • New furniture

 

Don't Suck

• Keep things clean
• Don't let things pile up
• Create a schedule and stick to it

Food was good, portions good.
No bad foods

No moves.

I feel a slump coming, but I’m trying hard to keep trudging through it. I just don’t want to do anything. Blah.

Today was no good.

Forgot my lunch, had Sonic
Nachos for dinner. A lot of nachos. Yummy nachos.
No moves. Tennis shoes weren’t dry from being washed the day before.
Tomorrow’s a new day.
