Daily Achievements!

Hi forum friends! I've decided to start a new thread on Daily Achievements because I suffer from depression as one of my mental illness and that means it's often hard for me to remind myself that I do actually things in my day, no matter how small they may be. I thought forumites could post here a daily achievement or 2 so we can remind ourselves that we have done something good each day. It can be as big or as small as you like. Just as long as what you did makes you proud and happy.

I'm tagging @roses @Bow @Shaz51 @BPDSurvivor @saltandpepper @Daisydreamer @Former-Member @Former-Member @Former-Member @TideisTurning @Former-Member @frog @Sans911 @outlander

in case you might be interested as well as anyone else who wants to join in!

So, to get this discussion started, I'll post my achievements today which are:

- I had a gorgeous cup of tea which helped me deal with some anxiety I was experiencing;

- I paid my car registration which was due today.


See what I mean about achievements? Mine may seem small or irrelevant to some people but to me, because I have depression, these are actually major in the scheme of my life. I look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Very Good @Former-Member hope you enjoy your cooking.

I:

  • washed kitchen floor
  • did the washing
  • moved a heap of stuff trying to work out where to put little pool I got myself. location may have to be a compromise. ie blocking off access to house guess 20 extra steps walking around tank if I put pool on the concrete path.

Congrats @TAB @Former-Member !

@Former-Member - The weetbix mocha slice sounds so good!

Re: Daily Achievements!

@Former-Member I want the weetbix mocha slice.

I ate 5 Lindt chocolates yesterday 🫠

It’s the baddest I’ve been in ages.

If I’m craving sweet things, I usually resort to yogurt and chocolate protein powder.

Re: Daily Achievements!

Yes I know what you mean. Lindt chocolates!!! The weetbix moccha slice is a weightwatchers diabetic recipe. Its the only way I can access chocolate these days. My diabetes educator didn't want me eating very much, there was nothing I could eat I had to tell her in the end I could not cope with the restrictions. So I just eat diabetic recipes and don't go so hard lined. It was just too extreme. She wanted me living like a rabbit. I know she meant well but for me at least it just wasn't do-able @NatureLover Chocolate Protein powder sounds like a good option same with yoghurt but being a diabetic can be soooo restrictive can't it?

Re: Daily Achievements!

I love chocolate, but Lindt is one I DON'T like. @Former-Member

Oh well, more for others.

I'll stick to all the other chocolate.

In response to: Re: Daily Achievements!

Re: Daily Achievements!

What is it about Lindt you don't like @tyme? My ex-mother-in-law was forever buying us Lindt chocolates for special occasions. I don't know what my favorite chocolate would be. My last stint at chocolate eating was choc protein balls but they are high in agave syrup so can't eat it now. You are lucky you can still eat chocolate

Re: Daily Achievements!

It's too creamy for me. I like ferrero. @Former-Member
