YOLO

Daily writing prompt
Jot down the first thing that comes to your mind.

First thing on my mind this morning was food.

I’m hungry.

I’ve been doing intermittent fasting again for the last two weeks and with some extra steps added in, it’s been working and I can tell I’ve lost a couple pounds.

But it’s the weekend and so easy to cheat. And life is short. YOLO.

On the other hand I feel so much better about myself without those extra pounds.

My step-daughter is getting married September long weekend, which I know is far away but I vow to be the best looking almost-fifty year old there. And especially because Clint’s ex-wife will also be there, I need to ensure I am looking my best.

He says without trying I’m a million times better looking but he has to say that.

  1. Weekends are good for cheating, that’s for sure! Maybe just a mini cheat?

    1. You’re right, a mini cheat is barely a cheat 😈

  2. I agree with Michael – that weekends are made for cheating. 🙂 I just started a weight loss journey for the 115th time (or so) lol – but tomorrow is Easter, so I consider that my cheat day.
    As long as you get right back to your routine after that cheat day. ❤
    You've got this!

    I don't know Clint's ex-wife but you're gorgeous and you better walk in there, look at her, give your biggest smile and dance like nobody is watching! 🙂
    Congrats to your stepdaughter.

    My boyfriend is intermittent fasting and I don’t know how he does it. More power to you. But as has been said make sure you give yourself grace as well.

    1. It’s actually easier than I thought it was going to be! I like that once I’m in my eating window, I eat pretty much whatever and it doesn’t feel like I’m “dieting”.

  4. You’ll look great no matter what, with all your flare for life! But I wish you encouragement in getting to the place you want to be, too, walking tall and shining out. 🙂

    The hormones are helping me resist more lately, but I still can’t fit into my favorite jeans!
