Today I thought I would review my reason for my goals as a reminder why I am wanting to push myself this way every day.
Lose weight: I am very overweight. I have eaten too much of the wrong things too long because it seemed to be a way to comfort/reward/punish myself. With this daily checkin, I believe I am becoming more in tune with the results of my food and exercise choices. Today I did well by making good choices with my food. I felt nourished but not stuffed. For exercise, I got about 8000 steps in and did some strength exercises.
DeClutter - In the past I have gotten too much stuff because I thought I would do something with it or the process of buying it made me feel better. I realize I don't enjoy seeing all my mistakes. I'm tired of moving it around because I can't find a place for something. What I am doing right is keeping the areas I use the most clear. I don't have to be ashamed if someone comes by. I am making progress on my spare room and storage areas with the eventual goal for everything to have a place or not be here.
Social: This goal is the hardest. I would like to be at the point where I can go to events and not feel uncomfortable that I am there alone. I would like to get the courage to invite a person or two out for coffee or lunch without being panicked about being rejected. I would like to feel more comfortable during meetings at work and not spend so much time analyzing what I said or did wrong. Today I did well by getting out of my home and having a short conversation with someone at the store.
