Dont feel bad Mellika - its hard to do anything if you are feeling bad. I'm sure you'll do great with your next task x

Hi everyone, just wondered if I can join you all...my challange for the week is to get everything ready for the following day the night before, clothes for everyone, lunches sorted and breakfast stuff out....should need that I am a lot calmer the following morning = shouts at the kids less!!

Might nick a few ideas from here in the few weeks!

Hi everyone

Is it too late to join? Hopefully not!!!!!

I would like to start by getting back into the habit of eating 3 proper meals a day, not skipping breakfast until 11.30am, being too full for lunch and therefore getting hungry and snacking before and after dinner! Not good for health or budget!

Can I join in to? - and I'd like a number please.

I'll start with drinking a litre of water a day - well actually it tends to be fairly weak orange squash - but that's okay!

Please can I join in too? I need to tidy the pots & pans away in the kitchen before I go to bed - have begun to leave them 'til the morning and that's not good! And can I have a number, please? I do like the idea of making just one change at a time - might even be able to stick to just one thing.

This week I am aiming at..

1 glass of water a day..

I LOATHE water.. and I drink tea (like gnat pee but with 2 sugars and a gallon of milk!).. or .. vodka and lemmonade.. sometimes I have smirnoff ice..

Starting tomorrow.. 1 glass of water.. and the sooner I drink it in the day the less time I have to think about it and psyche myself up for it.. in theory.. yes?...

I have failed misserably.

Before I get stoned alive, let me explain that I am having a flare-up, am constantly in pain and fatigued, and can't sleep at night. So when I finally get to sleep, I just go for it!

So I have failed completely. And realistically, I won't be able to do it this week. Maybe when I feel better.

So I have to replace that change for another one. *Goes off to have a think*

Mellika - you haven't failed. You know what your body will let you do. Listen to it and don't feel bad! ((Hugs))

Welcome to new MACAWers

Hiya Pigpen

Good idea, I might do that newt week!! Why dont you start off with Squash and then put less in each day...I hate water so started doing it that way...also find that I prefer it when its chilled a bit.
Hope it helps

Don't you hate waking up in the morning and finding your efforts sabotaged?? Just lying around the computer desk are CDs, Game packets, pay slips that don't belong to me . . . argh!!!

Will tidy now, and then see what happens thoughout the day.

I did it! I left work on time every day this week (today I was 3 minutes late-but that was cos my boss & I were looking at places to go for a staff do, so that doesn't count right?)
