We are in the midst of a Remodel we are having new floors put into our entire house I don't know if you can see in my background of my office here The carpet was removed and our new flooring was put in so I was able to recreate my background Which I love how it turned out and now we can see beautiful flooring instead of raggedy carpet So that also makes me super happy the other reason I chose to put the flooring in my office Is so that the dogs could come in because of Palmer still being a puppy We didn't want him to go to the bathroom on the carpet because once that happens They can smell it and they just keep returning to that same spot and honestly with having three dogs Just having carpet in our house overall is just not something we're interested in so we are in the middle of the floors being Put in it's hard you guys. It's hard. It's stressful I have to take the dogs into another room because especially Palmer is all up in the contractors of business So I end up either having to take them into my bedroom or outside. It's a pain It's a little bit of a pain. It's hard to film. It's hard to edit So I've been trying to film first thing in the morning before he gets here because it's loud I just can't wait for it to be over. Hopefully it'll be done here in the next few days We're nearing the end. He's now into the final portion of our house But you know, it just takes longer than expected and it's more of a pain Then he thought it would be but that's basically how my week ended up being was a lot of floors being put in and Construction noises and a lot of inconvenience especially when it came to preparing meals So on Tuesday, he was putting the flooring into our kitchen in our dining room Which meant that I couldn't cook dinner because there was literally construction and flooring everywhere So we had to eat out that night. So Tuesday was a bit of a struggle I did go over my calories a little bit on Tuesday, but Wednesday I was right back to cooking meals and right back to on track So I feel really good and proud of myself that I was able to navigate through the construction And really only have one day where I went over my calories and my points, of course So that was basically how my week went. I worked out. I ate the best that I could I spent a lot of time with my dogs and I spent a lot of time in a construction zone But before I share with you this week's weigh-in and my goals moving into next week Let's chat a little bit about this week's topic, which is about music and I find this interesting I'm not really sure how I feel about it. I don't know that I love it or that I hate it But this week's topic is about how music can help you overcome your hurdles the idea of this week's topic is to create a playlist of Music that keeps you inspired and that helps you reach your goals We all know that happy music whether it be rap music or rock music can really get us pumped up and Motivated to work out to clean our house or to really just focus on our goals When we have some good music playing in the background So when you're choosing those soundtracks or that music number one is think about music that makes you happy or that brings back Happy memories listen no judgment here on those memories or the type of music that you're choosing But whatever music genre you like choose from that choose music that makes you happy and makes you feel motivated Maybe think about songs that make you want to dance around or songs that maybe you would sing at karaoke Think about songs that remind you of being a kid Listen when we were kids we had no responsibilities being a kid was great. Even though the entire time we were a kid We wanted to be a grown-up. I wish I could go back to being a kid So think about songs that remind you of happy memories in your childhood Also, think about songs that were played at special occasions special occasions that again bring back happy memories And the next step press play turn it up turn it up loud and listen to that music Keep this playlist handy for when you just need a little bit of musical Motivation or maybe you want to use that music to overcome an obstacle Your favorite tunes are bound to get your morning off on the right foot Help you settle into a good night's sleep or help you be productive during the day I know for me I like to turn up some good music when I'm cleaning my house either that or I'm listening to a YouTube video or Something that's going to distract me from the not-so-fun job of cleaning my house Listening to music can bring back a lot of positive emotions and when we're in a mental headspace of positivity We're more likely to be productive to get things done and to stay on our weight loss journey If this playlist makes you do things that are healthy for you keep on doing it Maybe you have a playlist for when you work out or take a walk Turning on that playlist can get you moving out the door to that workout or to that walk Pair this great music with some healthy behaviors and you're off to a fantastic start I have to say I like the idea of this topic. I don't know how relevant this is to me Now maybe for you this is extremely relevant. Definitely. Let me know down in the comments I will say that I'm happy to see some different topics at the WW workshop And it looks like for the month of September We're talking about breaking through obstacles and I really like that overall topic I just don't know how relevant this one is to me But like I said, maybe this is extremely relevant for you and if it is you go girl You turn on your music. You dance around your kitchen. You do whatever you have to do to be successful So speaking about being successful, let's hop into this week's weigh-in. Despite having to eat out Tuesday night I still had a good weigh-in when I stepped on the scale my first weigh-in in the month of September I'm down 0.6 pounds. That's half a pound I couldn't be happier Especially because it was a little bit of a struggle to eat as normal or as healthy as I normally do this week So I'm thrilled with the loss of a half of a pound and it's a great way to start off the month of September I will go ahead and put here on the screen my total loss for the month of August I had a great month in August three out of four weeks. I had a loss one week I had a very slight gain point to which I pretty much consider a maintain So I'm thrilled with how the month of August went and moving into September for at least the first Three weeks of September. I am shooting for a loss every single week. I don't have a number in mind I really don't care what that loss is I'm just shooting for a loss the first three weeks of the month of September Because at the end of the month, I'm heading out to San Diego to spend a few days with my best friend And then I'm going to be making some changes starting in the month of October So I'll share a little bit more about that with you guys towards the end of this month But my goal is to really stay on track and see the scale move in the right direction Up until my trip to San Diego and then on my trip I want to enjoy myself, but I also want to be mindful. So my goal is about a 70-30 approach 70% Good healthy food 30% enjoying myself on vacation again I'll be sharing with you more about moving into October towards the end of the month But now I want to hear from you guys.
