    @missheidi If I could come to Kansas and organize your kitchen/pantry I totally would! I find silly things like incredibly cathartic. Lol. Congrats on making dinner work! That's kind of insane how you have to do it! I probably would have just stayed away from pasta altogether. Lol. I hope Kristian has a great time at the HS!

    @Creofan Welcome! This is a great group here! I hope that you come and enjoy. Check-in often! That's how I think a lot of us stay on track! Those look like awesome goals! I need to start writing out gratitude as well!

    @mcbeef29 YOU ARE AWESOME! I love all of the positivity that is always in your goals! I think I need to start adding some to my goals as well! I hope you have a great day as well!

    Yesterday's commitments:
    - Log everything I eat :)
    - Stick to food plan :| Nearly, just had...
    - No alcohol :) .... one g&t at comedy gig. Comedy is much improved by alcohol
    - Walk to work :)
    - 30+ minute lunch break (look at holidays) :)
    - Spend 30+ minutes reading line management course guide :)

    LOL!!! Very true! Look at all those smiles! You are kicking butt, lady!

    @sarah74_vt Look at all your smiles! Eight orders done! Awesome!

    @Bex953172 Honey, you have your hands full right now! Vent away. My first pregnancy, I had twins and then had one more little boy 2 years later. 3 under the age of 2 was crazy busy and my house was often a mess and my nerves were often frazzled as I got no sleep. So, you just take it one day, one hour and sometimes one minute at a time to get through crazy moments and remember to take some "me" time whenever you get the chance. Even a 15 minute timeout for yourself... Just sit and take deep breaths... Sending you hugs...and hoping to send you a quilt soon!

    2) Drink plenty water to flush system = 12c should've been more :neutral:
    3) Usual breakfast / leftovers day / net calories green = Net calories red 161, sodium / sugar / protein great, fiber ok :/
    4) Floss :smiley: / retainers :smiley: / bed & TV off 10:15 :smiley: then remembered I forgot to cancel Schwans delivery (online) for Mon. so got up briefly :#

    Today’s been pooooo

    Partner has been pretty ill today, I’ve had 4 hours sleep with a lot of night nursing until around 1am and becausenof that I didn’t tidy up last night which I thought would be no problem as I can do it in the morning.
    But with the lack of sleep and trying to feed a baby again, do breakfast for the other two, look after my partner when he was being sick all the while I’m soaked in milk and just generally very worse for wear :sweat_smile: and a midwife visit at 9.30am the outlook of even getting my daughter to nursery was bleak. So decided to keep her home.
    Tried to reschedule said midwife visit today just til tomorrow and basically they just pushed and pushed until I HAD to let them come round.
    Baby is still a bit jaundiced. And now she’s two weeks old (how fast has THAT gone!) it’s called “prolonged jaundice” so they need to do extra blood tests and possible photo-light therapy (? Not sure if that’s it’s actual name)

    So on the phone they basically put it as “we need to do the tests” I explained the situation and that I simply didn’t want anyone round today and they said that they had to because it’s “what’s best for baby” and I took that as they were implying that I didn’t care what was best for baby. And after having previous postnatal depression that did not go down well. At. All.
    I then start shouting at them, crying down the phone saying that it was too much for them to come today as I have enough to do and she says “well it sounds like you need help!” And then I REALLY lost it shouting that it was their $hitty comments like that that would make me ill again. I didn’t need “help” and “help” would be them understanding that I simply had too much on my hands to even deal with that today and they should respect that and come tomorrow!

    And after all that, I still ending up agreeing that they would come round. So she comes round, pushing me to take her to the hospital to run the tests. I said you can take the blood test here. These have since been reviewed and the levels are a little high but said I’m more than okay to come in the morning (LIKE I EFFING SAID!)
    So they’ve caused me a day of stress for nothing

    They’ve put me on a feeding plan which is really difficult (BF every 3 hours and express on top of that to top her up after her feed) and with no prestored milk it’s been awful. I had to pump, then feed, then feed her the expressed, wait an hour to rehydrate myself and pump again ready for the next feed. And I’m only getting about an oz which is making me feel even worse.
    And now I have a pounding headache myself and my glands in my neck are swelling.

    The midwifes have said so many triggering things and I’ve held together every time.
    Just trying to hold out til I’m discharged from their care and just not crack in the meantime


    Sorry for the long unrelated post, just had to get it out to save my sanity!

    oh sweetheart. i'm so sorry. i can emphasize completely with the bf problems. is she getting enough to eat, just the pumping not going well? PPdepression sucks, and i would think the MIDWIFE would understand that you are two weeks out and your hormones are still super crazy.

    Sorry for the long unrelated post, just had to get it out to save my sanity!

    Wondering how today has gone. Also, can you explain a bit why the madhatters are wanting you to pump if C is getting enough milk? I'm a bit perplexed at that...of course it's been 21 years since I've BF so maybe there's a new way of doing something??? And if you are too wiped out to wipe your...well, you know...don't worry about trying to explain anything!!! hugs hugs hugs

    @toaljasa I've been meaning to ask, how is your daughter? Is she recovered? Did she find a new car?

    Thanks for asking. She's still sore and is exhausted when she returns home from work. But swelling is going down and bruising not worse.

    A blessing about the car...So, as I may have said before, one of my dearest friend's daughter married our son (the couple who miscarried). We traveled together as families (a total of 8 kids, woo-hoo!) and now just the four of us (they were the ones who were recently visiting us). ANYWAY, I was at her house yesterday and she said her husband announced he is buying her a new car and to see if J and B would like to have the current car, which has 200k miles on it, but is still in excellent condition.) J, our son, has a beater of a car, but he offered it to our daughter. He has kept it in good shape but has a zillion miles on it. But it will be a great stop gap until she finds something that is a bit more reliable.

    In the meantime, another dear friend offered me her Lexus to drive while I'm here...she insisted she's fine driving the big honkin' pick up truck. So I have a car while I'm here. And then daughter's friend is traveling to Equador and offered her the car while she's gone so she has not had to rent a vehicle. Blessings all around :) I am thankful.

    Well my glands in my neck have gone back down! But my voice has disappeared with it!

    Feeding helps the bilirubin break down and mature the liver. So the more she feeds the quicker her jaundice will do.
    And because you can’t tell how much she’s getting from me then she said a little top up just to make sure she’s full will help!

    @toaljasa

    Forgot to say how the rest of the day went.
    I didn’t go in the morning, was busy, so went to the hosp this afternoon.
    She had her observations done, so weight, heart rate etc.
    I had to get a urine sample from her so basically has to sit with a put under her for ages!
    Got to a point where I googled “how to make a newborn pee on demand” and she finally did one as I was searching.
    Then the blood tests. Needle in her hand. Had to fill 4 baby vials. Got 3 done and it started to coagulate. So she took needle out and got the blood straight from her hand, then that started to coagulate because she was just faffing around and then she had to lance her foot to get the last vial filled!
    Poor baby put up a right fight and was not happy but she got good samples apparently so shouldn’t need repeating!

    Now just waiting for results.

    Today I Learned That: Running outside "for real" is a heckuva lot more challenging than running on the treadmill. There's wind, variable terrain, and even when it's clear, it still sucks because even though the sun wasn't low in the sky, it was still bright enough in general to make my eyes ache and water. Ugh.

    Life would be an awful lot easier if I wasn't so dadgum vain.

    1. Journal every bite :)I journaled it. Good thing I didn't make a goal to stay green, because today was BAD!!! I packed a much too light lunch and turned into an absolute glutton at dinner. At least I'm aware and journaled honestly, I guess!
    2. Hydrate, Hydrate Hydrate (more than Monday) :)
    3. After every meeting, go get a glass of water and take a lap through the building :) Done to the best of my ability but some meetings didn't end early enough for me to leave my desk.
    4. 6000 steps / 250+ steps every hour :/ Just didn't have it in me yet. Still very fatigued. But I did hit the 250+ steps 5/10 hours today, so that's better than I usually do! (Thanks for this idea @cschmitz110515)
    5. Work on 3 tiny habits: After pouring coffee, read 1 Bible verse. After finishing dinner, pick out tomorrow's outfit. After brushing teeth at bedtime, wash and moisturize my face. :):):)Done, Done and Done!
    6. Email catch-up at work. Handle each email once and get it out of my Inbox :)Working on it.
    7. Podcasts: Optimal Living Daily, Optimal Health Daily, Minimalism :)
    8. Body, Mind & Spirit - address each :):):) b]Got my hair cut and colored tonight, read more on habit creation and said morning prayers after showering this morning. [/b]
    9. Prep for tomorrow tonight :)I think I will take this a step further and pre-log my food tonight. I cannot have another gluttonous day like today! UGH
    10. Unplug 9:00, read Simple Abundance, Beck's Diet Solution, 52 Small Changes to a Happier You (title?) and Joyce Meyer's New Day New You. :smile: On my way there when I finish up here. Really fatigued tonight.
    12. Do NOT hit snooze in the morning! (This should be #1 but I just thought of it.) :sI think it will be a miracle if I EVER actually meet this goal!


    Just for Wednesday:
    1. Get up without hitting snooze
    2. Work on building tiny habits: After I pour coffee, I will read one scripture verse. After I towel dry my hair, I will say a morning prayer to start my day. After I finish dinner, I will pick out tomorrow's outfit. After I brush my teeth in the evening, I will wash my face. (@cschmitz110515 This is taken from a challenge i'm doing on another thread. There is a website also that it's based off of called tinyhabits.com Pretty doable approach, I think!)
    4. Journal everything I eat
    5. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate.
    6. 6000 steps, 250+ steps each hour
    7. Take time to address each Body, Mind & Spirit
    8. Pack tomorrow's lunch and prelog food
    9. Pay bills
    10. Perform one random act of kindness
    11. Pick away at email at work...touch each one only ONCE.
    12. Unplug 9:00, read Simple Abundance, Beck's Diet Solution, and Joyce Meyer's New Day New You.

    Have a wonderful day everyone!


    I cannot always control what happens in life, but I can certainly control how I react to it!
