(+) Yeah! (+)

Lotta negative talk going around and wanted to spread some positivity

What are you doing/working on to make yourself the best you that you can be?

Some places to start if you're floundering:

• Do something every day to move your body. Start small, like 30 mins if you need to. Can be any activity, even ones you enjoy like going for a walk, playing DDR/beatsaber/ringfit or gardening
• Acquire and carry a (permanent) water bottle with you. Drinking water you keep with you will become your default choice and help eliminate grabbing sugary drinks.
• Guard your sleep schedule. Going to bed and sleeping at roughly the same time every day promotes better sleep.
• Recognize that change can come slowly and to forgive yourself when you're not perfect

I'd say this is a maybe depending on personal circumstance. Consider getting a pet if you are positive you have the capacity to care for it financially, physically and emotionally. If you have trouble taking care of yourself first and foremost, perhaps hold off on getting a pet until you're in a better place.

Therapy next month. But I'm full of anxiety in general and don't know if it will help me.

I approve of this topic.

My sleep schedule has taken a hit and I am feeling it. Sleeping is a huge one to lock down.

My sleep schedule has never been good. But thats partly because Im in the military. Or thats how it was. Right now, I could fix it. But eh

But don't forget to treat yourself. Have cake, pie or cookies every day.

I workout and/or work just about every day.
I mostly drink water (though I don't have a permanent water bottle), sometimes the occasional coffee or tea but no pop/energy drinks.
My sleep schedule is fucked but I'm not sure how to fix that because I get up at wildly different times regardless of when I go to bed or need to be up.
As for the last point, that's the mindset I'm in (and lost 50ish lbs over the last 2 years because of it)

I've been trying to cut out sweets lately to some amount of success. I'm giving myself a few cheat days but I'd like to eventually not have them at all more or less

I already did for the most part. I just don't have cravings for that stuff like I use to. Only things that get me at this point are the new Kit Kat or Reese's varieties which is more of a one and done kind of thing. I need to try to cut out coffee creamer.
