This challenge was created eight years ago by a few Weight Watchers members. We are committed to making positive and permanent lifestyle changes. Success isn’t always measured at the scale. Each day, tally the positive actions that you made the day before and then talk about the challenges you are working on. Anyone with a positive commitment to the program can join. If you are the first one to post each day, please copy, paste and get us started and, if you choose, pose the Question of the Day (QOTD) that solicits constructive ideas for following the plan.

Good Morning!!! love light blessings and good health. An extra dose of love to California and of course to SCOTUS. Monday. 9.21.2020. 803 AM CST
Carol thanks for starting us out!! WTG on zoom meeting, planting, workouts, and a special huge WTG on positive attitude.
Jan enjoy SIL, enjoy new fridge, and an extra dose of blessings for Cali specific problems.
Nat an extra dose of blessings to you as well.
Sally please take care of the DC area and happy holidays.
Well, yesterday was not as productive as I would have liked. I enjoyed a beautiful long walk in pretty fall weather but no formal workout/ab circuit. I did not manage to finish the yard. I did get some housework done. No law. I enjoyed a lovely evening with MF - I tried a new bread recipe. French bread but I snuck a little bit of wheat flour in there. Our walk in the park got rained out! We can really use the rain so that was a gift.
Yes I can: be an adult! Work while enjoying this lovely rainy, cool fall morning. Home ab circuit. Check mail (never quite got to the mailbox yesterday). Tonight: spinning class and a swim if I can get a lane. These tight old muscles could sure use the pool.
love light blessings and good health to everyone, janet

Good Monday evening positive peeps! Thanks for the blessings Janet, will take all I can get. That would be a bit of an adjustment when you're used to being single and little selfish. I'm married and have become a little selfish over time!! Jan I hope you are enjoying your guest and I'm sure you will be glad to have that fridge soon. Waves Carol and Sally! They are holding our fire line pretty well, so it has not ventured north and pray it doesn't. I was out at the lake today for a walk and watched 3 amphibious aircraft that usually work Canada dipping in for water fill. They were making an every 15 min run so got to see them twice. I had my 10k steps in before 11 LOL. I'm going to Palm Springs on Wed for a few days. DSis and friends have rented a house with a pool, though I booked a room close by as two DSis's are going and our good friends (couple) and their little dog. That's enough for one small house.  The fire there sounds like it is not a danger now. Yes, very sad about RBG, mighty woman! My DSis the nurse dressed as her at the hospital last Halloween  Yes I CAN: -Keep the kitchen closed. -Get to bed early. -declutter office (shredded a bunch today) -not stress over things See you tomorrow!

Good Morning!! love, light, and blessings. love, light,and blessings. Good health to all. Tuesday. 9.22.2020. 801 AM CST
Hi Carol! Hi Sally! Hi Jan!
Nat thank you for the words of wisdom, I am glad fireline is seeming to hold for now, and your upcoming trip sounds neat. I am wrestling with idea of going to see my folks in Missouri but even with precautions does not feel safe. They are both over 80 and high risk.
Yes I did: dig back into my work project. I did not get a lot done but did get done the part that I was really dreading and putting off. Also, home ab circuit, spinning class, and a swim. I got way more chores/errands done yesterday than law.
It is still raining here so a walk not looking good. Yes I can: home ab circuit, weight class, chores, maybe another swim, and yes work on law project. Now big girl pants (and umbrella) to check mail.
love, light, blessings and good health, janet

Happy Tuesday.
Just checking in after a lovely Thai dinner (picked it up at the restaurant) with Sweetie and DSIL.
Walking tomorrow morning with my artist pal to the beach from her house. Fridge comes tomorrow afternoon.
Sending love out to you all!

Good Morning! Love, light, blessings, and good health! Thursday. September 24, 2020. 7:10 AM. CST.
Hi Jan! Hi wildlife! Hi Carol! Hi Cello! Hi Sally and grandbaby! Hi Nat, Hi mountains.
Yes I did: spinning class, home ab circuit, walk, law. Yes I can: sun is supposed to finally make an appearance today so - wash, weed eating, farmers market, home ab circuit, weight training class, and law. Maybe even sweep and mop! Six month mark on pandemic crisis in Central Texas -- a reminder to be grateful for the precautions in place and the ability to do stuff like my weight training class with a mask and much distance between us.
love, light, blessings, and good health to everyone! janet

Happy Thursday Canners,
Good to read about all of you and your healthy plans. Stay healthy!Stay away from fires!
I am swamped with work ( you can imagine-anxious kiddos!) and scheduling..combined with exercise and connecting with friends/fam socially,oh..and then there are audio books! We are traveling to Charleston a week from tomorrow to see NORA PAIGE and I can hardly wait! WW drop in for WI today, I have arrived at the high end of normal BMI and would like to get into comfortable mid BMI range- will see...
99 Days until Dec 31st (what a year!)- what will you do to feel successful 1/1?

Good Thursday Evening, 🐥🐥!
Sally - yay for healthy BMI and running 5Ks!
Nat - yay for fire lines holding and getting some R&R next week
Jan - enjoy the new fridge & time with family
Janet - kudos for working all that strength training into a busy schedule. I think I'm ready to progress from my 2 minute abs workout, LOL!
I have been getting lots of walks & hikes in as the weather has been superb this week...had an eye exam this morning, holding steady, which is good. Teacher had to cancel cello lesson 'cause the new baby kept him up all night ( I was actually relieved, as I needed more time to practice). I will try to post more timely...Must think about plans for the next 99 days😁 What a year, indeed!
Be well!
Carol

Good Morning!! love light blessings love light blessings love light blessings Good health 9.25.2020 Friday
Sally bless you and the anxious kiddos! Congrats on your BMI!
Carol hooray for ab exercises and walking and cello instructors sleeping in.
Hi Jan! Hi wildlife!
Hi Nat!
Yes I did: healthy dinner with MF and we avoided a fuss despite much stressors in both of our lives. Avoiding fusses is how I define success Sally. I also was OP (fed him salad and Tilapia and cantaloupe). Weed eating, wash, farmers market, cooking which involved the oven getting too hot and turning itself off (I didn't know it had that feature but am glad to have avoided a serious fire), home ab circuit, weight training class and a swim. Chug along on law project, it is getting there.
Yes I can: clean oven to avoid future issues with fire, finish yard, spinning class, pick up healthy groceries for planned picnic tomorrow. I am reminded of plan ahead stay OP which we haven't had much use for lately - there has not been much to plan ahead for. Of course, law.
love light blessings and good health, janet

Good Evening & Good Weekend, positive 🐣🐣!
Yes I did:
--Tap class, yesterday, another challenge for me. Teacher does realize our class has quite a big range of abilities (some of us only signed on because the next lower class was canceled, others have been in this level for years...) Well, I'm trying...
--grocery shopping while Sweetie got his flu shot & took the van in for repair
--Walk at the pond & bird sanctuary trails
--eat pie...yes, I stupidly bought pie on the grocery trip
--not get quite enough sleep
Be well!
Carol

Happy Saturday positive peeps! I am back from Palm Springs little getaway, which was very relaxing. The house/pool was nice that sis rented and was great to just have our own pool. I didn't get in the one at the hotel. We did go out to eat 3 different times and all very covid compliant along with everyone on the streets and stores masked up. Most menus need to be called up online on your smartphone (mom would have a fit lol) Lots of misters in the outdoor dining places. At least it was mostly in the low 100s and not 120s Janet would you be flying or driving to Missouri if you went. I'm not ready to fly anywhere yet. If driving, just making sure masks, washing hands, keeping hands off face, and stay clear of too many other people. But I do get your apprehension. I still worry about mom and dad. I stopped in there both on Wed and Fri, but do best to practice being safe with them. Yay Sally on getting to see Nora Paige soon (pretty name) and on reaching your BMI range. Carol great job on all the hikes. Nice that you are having good weather for it. Jan, hurray for the new fridge finally (I hope)! Okay steps are in for today. I forgot to charge fitbit and it died in the middle of the night Thurs, so Thurs has no steps and Fri I didn't get home until late so maybe 2k steps that night. But I'm back on track now. Getting ready to do a 21 day plant based kickstart reading Neil Barnard's book, so will see how this week goes before I start my new job (knocking on wood that I still have LOL so far). I cut out the meat today but had a little cheese! Have a good night, see you tomorrow! Nat |

Carol - pie happens or in my case - homemade bread. Glad you are tapping -- we need joy right now.
Nat - I will drive if I go. Glad it went well in Palm Springs -- we so need stuff like that.
Hi Sally! Hi Jan! Hi wildlife.
Yes I did: walks, weights. Enjoy a picnic with MF, fruit, lovely park and yes, homemade french bread.
Yes I can: more walking, weights. Maybe sneak in some law, if not -- hit the ground running tomorrow morning.

Good Sunday afternoon positive ones Janet sounds like a wonderful and romantic picnic! I am feeling very clear-headed and my fingers are flying today and that's just with going meatless since Friday morning. I've haven't officially started my 21 day thing until tomorrow as I've had a little dairy today (very little, 1/4 cup of premier caramel in my coffee) and had some egg/cheese yesterday morning but none today. So I think my head is in the right place for a good start on it tomorrow. Mostly it's no animal products, no dairy, minimal oil/fats (so need to watch my avocado and nuts). Just need to get a little grocery shopping done tonight. Looking forward to it....as I'm smelling the big ole cheeseburgers that DS grilled! Waves to all! Yes I CAN: -Get in 12k today -Get shopping done -Close kitchen by 7pm -Get some sleep tonight, vacation is over! -Stay positive, don't let the doubts creep in...going to have a great week! See you tomorrow Nat |
