Motivational Monday - 04.18

[MrsMB]

Sorry, I'm late...New Hire Monday and one girl decided not to do any of her electronic onboarding...


Work Goals?

Personal Goals?

Health/Nutrion Goals?

[HoneySpider]

Work Goals? Nothing specific, just get stuff done

Personal Goals? Working on finding rentals and scheduling some viewings, which is way harder than it should be! I also need to make a haircut appt for when I am in NJ in a few weeks.

Health/Nutrion Goals? I think I'm going to initiate the cancellation of my gym membership. I'm finding it harder to go (between body hurting and being busy) and it's not going to get any easier...and if we move, I'll be cancelling anyway.

Work goals: don't kill my psyco co-teacher.

Personal: clean and organize the loft and basement storage area.

Health/nutrition: count ww points and exercise at least twice.

[estrellita]

No real work goals this week, just continue lowering the amount of errors, lol

Personal- laundry!

Health- Start tracking in MFP again, focus on making little changes (this worked before!), get out for more walks and bike rides.

[MrsMB]

HoneySpider I am a huge advocate for Be.ach B.ody fitness DVD's. Easy to follow and do from home. (Periods inserted because I don't want to attract the BB trolls. ha!)

Personal: Finish up my sewing refashion projects. General cleaning.

Health: Try to work in smaller meals and snacks. Find an exercise routine with cardio that doesn't cause injury (Jillian Michaels & I are having issues).

Turbo Fire is a good DVD program that has someone showing "low impact" versions of each exercise. It has good cardio elements too. (I swear I'm not one of those MLM Beach Body coaches...I just do a lot of their programs.)

Work: just get through the week.

Personal: I need to work on my mood. I've been such a Debbie downer lately.

Health: I need to get my butt moving. I've been sitting on it too much.

[katiek]

Work: Does being a SAHM count as work? lol. If so, I need to make sure M watches less TV! It's just so much easier to have him distracted while I take care of L!

Personal: I need to do more for myself and tell H what I need. I've been feeling resentful a little lately, and all it would take to fix it is a conversation.

Health: Stop eating so much junk! Last week I ate chocolate, ice cream, a donut, and apple crisp in ONE DAY. OMG. Not huge quantities of each, but that is gross. Also make sure to go on walks every day, because it's supposed to be nice all week!

[MrsMB]

katiek yes it does!!

MrsMB - It was New Hire Monday for me, too! How often do you usually have them?

[katespade]

Work: Get through my to do list. It seems to get longer every day rather than shorter, and I need to get myself caught up somehow.

Personal: Get to my niece's birthday party this weekend. I know that my anxiety is goi g to flare and I'm going to try to talk myself out of it, but I want to do everything I can to get there.

Health: I need to start remembering to eat lunch. I get to focused at work that I miss lunchtime altogether, and it's not at all healthy. I can't afford to miss meals.

They wear me out!!

We have it once a month. We needed to move it to twice a month. But we can't convince senior leadership! We were doing it twice a month before my maternity leave.

They are definitely exhausting! I'm always ready for the day to be over by lunchtime. lol.

We're in the process of moving from once a month to twice a month. We had one yesterday, and we have another next week.

[MrsMB]

katespade I'm trying to send the word up that we need it bi-monthly. Unfortunately, many people higher than me are married to the monthly idea....ugh. We had a MUCH easier time with it twice a month.

Work goals- to start counseling, I've had a bad week at work and I want to get help before this gets too far.

Personal goal- to catch up on sleep

Health/nutrition- get to the gym twice and start eating healthy.

My therapist called and offered me an appointment for tomorrow (I've been on the cancellation list). Instead of ignoring the message or turning them down like I wanted to, I called them back and accepted the appointment.
