So far I really like it, it's getting me to actually clean lol. I was one of those people that would only clean up either when people were coming over or when things were getting out of hand. I generally set about 3-4 tasks for myself each day, I declutter and do my dishes each day and then I have 1-2 other tasks that I do like cleaning the bathroom or vacuuming. The app shows me a history of when I've done each task and let's me know what's due that day. This is really handy, I think part of my problem was I couldn't keep track of when I last did something. I've only been using it for about a week and already my place is looking better
Anyways, I'm watching a video by Dr. Garth Davis on Youtube this morning to help motivate myself. He talked about how having a cheat day is not good because you end up obsessing over the junk food and it gets elevated in your mind. This sounds like me lol. When I visit my family that's my cheat day or days depending on how long I'm with them. On the weekends too I generally don't eat quite as good (hence then pancakes). Sometimes I kinda bash oatmeal in my mind, "oatmeal is boring...I'd rather have a bagel" that sort of thing. Attitude is everything and if I think I wont enjoy my oatmeal, then I probably wont. Anyways, I highly recommend searching Dr. Davis on youtube if you haven't seen his videos, he's a good speaker.
Today's eats so far:
Leftover blueberry pancakes
maple syrup
banana
Coffee with soy creamer

Next week, I wanna see how I do without any nut butter I'm so excited, maybe I can FINALLY get past this dang plateau I've been at for well, over a year....
