Habit: Daily meditation
Restarts: 1

Day 7: 10 minutes
I was physically tired, but mentally amped by the time I sat down for meditation last night. Slowing the brain chatter wasn't easy, but I did get there.

Day 4 done.

Had to give myself a pep talk on the want versus need again!! Wish I could be content but always seem to want something else, particularly in evening.

Day 11 - No playing hearts on the computer
Day 8 - no eating after 6 PM
Day 3- in bed by 10PM

This is going better than I expected. Having set the goals is really working well as an incentive. It stops me from playing hearts and eating after 6PM even though the thought to do either will arise in my mind. and last night it got me moving so that I did what I needed to do and still managed to get into bed by 10PM. Amazing

My 90 day "no snacking between meals" habit I'm developing.

Yesterday:

Day 10, hunger VS want between breakfast and dinner

No snacks, but had a piece of bacon at 5:45, while the broccoli and the cheese sauce were cooking. That piece of bacon kept me from eating two bowls of broccoli cheese soup, when I know that one was plenty.

Day 2 daily planks

45 seconds. YAY.

Habit: Daily meditation
Restarts: 1

Day 8: 5 minutes
I stayed up waaaay too late last night, but I did manage to stop my nerd spiral in time to sit down and get in a little meditation before going to bed. I take this as a sign that the habit is starting to put down some little baby roots. Typically, I can't stop myself, and end up falling asleep in mid-task with my laptop.
