New Goals

It seems I'm always trying to set up new goals, new plans, new strategies to work on myself.  After a meltdown, I realized that changes are necessary.  The situation with mom is NOT going to change, so I have to adjust. 

Her schedule is rigid at her home, with lunch at 11.  Unless I want to sit and lunch with the ladies, I don't get there until after noon. And I leave by 3 so I'm home before traffic starts.  

The way my brain works is to put in the constants then work around that to add in the other stuff that needs doing. Which switches my fasting schedule a bit. Lunch is my main meal. Because I wasn't hungry before I left for moms, I was eating that at 3pm, or later. Not working.  That means lunch needs to be at 11.  

Which means breakfast should be more of a snack.  I was having breakfast at 9, so there's something to switch. Main meal at 11, yogurt at 3pm. Treadmill walk --- because its hot too early in the spring!! -- I need to walk twice, just after lunch, then right after dinner. 

Ok, those should be easy enough to switch around. And they say it takes 3 weeks for something to become a habit. It won't change the feelings that are dredged up, but maybe feeling a little success in this switch will help change the mental part as well.  

I'm crossing my fingers!!
