JFT
I WILL NOT...
- Binge eat🙂
- Mindlessly eat🙂

Okay so yeah.. not great.
But everything just got messed up.
Ash decided it was a good idea that at 4.45pm (i start dinner at 5) to start installing a filtered tap.
*sigh*
It threw off the timing for everything, it took him an hour and a half and there was no room for me to make dinner, plus i needed to use the sink.
So yeah that put everything off.
But i shall be back tomorrow!2 -

will try to catch up tomorrow
Stay in the green very much doubt it
5 fruit and veg
Fitbit excercise goals
January challenge
February challenge
March challenge not unless a quick scoot between the car and shop counts. It was cold wet and windy today!
April challenge I enjoyed the company of good friends. The reason for not logging accurately and not eating well was an impromptu meal with my neighbours. I enjoyed the company of people who care about me and it was good to produce a meal they enjoyed when they returned from a holiday; that was more important than my daily diet goals.

Well I don’t have a cracked rib. It seems the viral infection that affected my chest in January has moved to under my ribs. Back on Aleve again for a while.4

About you: You are very strong for coming back and getting back on track even though things are tough.
About me: I can do things physically that most people my age can't do even though I'm not "in shape" by my standards.
Cheers to you!
I love this ..... saying something positive about someone else!! So beautifull put. Depression is so hard . I suffer from it during the winter months, especially around the holidays. It is hard to do anything during that time. I am so proud of you guys ... for not giving up, for staying strong!
Oh ... and I didn't get a chance to comment earlier ... but your children are beautiful! They look so much like you.4 -

Daily goals for 4-4-19
1. Log all my food
Done!
2. Write 1k words for CampNaNo projectI think I came in around 900 but I'll take it!
3. Go to the gym(even if it's for 10 minutes! Just do it!)Well it was 25 minutes actually but I did a pretty good ride on an exercise bike. Definitely broke a sweat and got my heart rate up at least around 166
4. Look up a new dish for dinnerIt was an older dish technically. I made it once, probably 2 years ago, and it didnt turn out great the first time but it was AMAZING tonight.
5. Return library bookI almost forgot about it but was able to run back in the house and grab it before I left for the gym.
6. Call Dr CLeft a message to refill a medication but never got a call back or an alert from the pharmacy so I'm going to call back bright and early tomorrow
7. Call FidelityDone
9. Figure out money stuffAlso done!
11. Make shopping listAll set. I just have to rememer to bring it with me!
12. DISHESThere is NOT ONE single dish in my sink right now! I am going to bed with an empty sink for the first time in weeks!!!
13. Bed before 12pmIt's currently 11:35. We'll see but honestly, I doubt it. Lol
Weekly goals
1. Upload docs for Matt
2. Uplaod docs for job
3. Clean up bedroom
4. Clean out kitchenette
5. Look for plaque for MIL
6. Figure out monthly money stuff
As you can see I had a very eventful day! I got everything done that I wanted to! That's the first time in a really long time that I was able to do that! Definitely gives me a good feeling as I'm going to bed tonight! I also wrote tomorrow's JFT on my notepad so that I can look at it without having to constantly be logged into MFP. That helped today too.
Tomorrow is supposed to be cold and rainy so I think it will be a day to stay inside. Matt closes his store tomorrow so he'll be out for most of the evening. I am going to do a lot of cleaning I think. I may also treat myself to some seafood at the little (and awesome) seafood place near me. It's been FOREVER since I've been there.
OH! I'm finally getting a new laptop! It's been 10 years since I've had one. The dinosaur I'm using now is what I call a "franken-top" A friend of my dad rebuilds busted electronic equipment. He gave me this one like 3 years ago and you can definitely tell that it has seen better days. So hopefully by the end of next week I will have a bright, shiny new one! I'm seriously stoked!
Positive thought for the day- I was able to fit a very yummy but still skinny chocolate pudding cake into my meal plan tonight!
Okay onto goals!

7. Park run - aim for 2 miles < 25 minutes. Maybe go for a walk together.
8. Balance work. Therapy exercises: lunges, push-ups, calf raises. Gratitude journal. Meds. Floss, rinse, brush teeth. In bed by 9:45; devices off by 10:00. (Post-break: Review checklist.

Scale goalsEnd of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
January 2019: 186.0
February 2019: 187.0
Today: 187.6
Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut1. Purchases: Go to Mac store and see if they can retrieve the files off the iMac. Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for Design for How People Learn (Julie Dirksen), On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie).
2. E2: What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used: Animal Farm, Julius Caesar, Wes Moore, I Am Malala. Find a way to incorporate changing words from one part of speech to another. Students need to know how to review multiple sources and synthesize information in order to draw a conclusion. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me).
4. Curriculum Development: Writing mini-unit. Review scholarly research on 5PE. (I think I can have this as an intro to the research unit so that they also get exposure to how quotes are integrated and cited.) Parallel structure; use of emotional language, specific detail. Use "Write About a Pebble" lesson from Atwell. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays!
5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week -Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals.
6. Medical: Apr 25 Dentist. Apr 22 McC. Call to set up checkups with Dass (October). GET MAGAZINES FOR COLLAGES FROM DOCTORS.
7. Theater: Audition for Mamma Mia ??? Need sub for May 2, opening day.
8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling.
WFTY: Climbing. Got a Lang8 post written but apparently my Portuguese was terrible. *sigh* I haven't seen that many corrections on a post in awhile... and that's not including that I haven't written for awhile.
Just feeling like I haven't accomplished much this week. Weight's down, though! That's not nothing. Here's hoping it can continue.2 -
@snowflake – Glad it’s not a broke rib. Hope the Aleve helps and you feel better soon.
@Bex953172 – Thanks! This is my daily routine /checklist to keep me on track; so far it’s working. I’m sure it’s boring to read, though. Hahaha Keep at it! You’re doing it.
@myime6630 – Thanks for the picture quotes. I have started to incorporate some of them into my morning affirmations. Love them! You struggle with getting in water. Do you drink tea? I count my tea. But I don’t count my coffee. What helps me is, I use a specific and different mug/bottle for the time of day then I don’t have to count. I reach and fill the appropriate one and shoot to drink it by a certain time, then reach and fill the next. So in the morning I use a large coffee mug and a 16oz water bottle; then for work I fill a 32oz water bottle and fill a 20oz travel tea mug; then when I get home I have a blue 20oz water bottle and a 16oz tall tea mug. This makes me feel like I am drinking something exciting! LOL and I don’t have to count. I am getting in more than my 8+, on perfect days almost 12. 42 years of marriage… that is an accomplishment! Congratulations! Good Friday goals!
@nlmackey98 – I think the positive statement you said about “you” could be applied to yourself, to each of us. We all struggle daily with life and our tracking. It takes courage and strength to come back to MFP everyday to be real with our MFP friends and ourselves. So please use that as a positive for yourself, along with what you can physically can do. You’re doing it- that’s what counts! <<hugs>>
Sorry for not getting to say more to the rest. Hubby had me do something for him and it took time allocated to MFP… so sorry! Hope y’all have a great Friday!! Feel well, make good choices, be focused, and aware of your actions. <<hugs>> You can do it… JUST FOR TODAY! Just for one hour, just for ten minutes!

@Snowflake 1968 - lovely photos! How on earth will you pick your favourites?
JFT 4th April
Eat sensibly Ate reasonable meals, but a bit too much
Do back exercises Just stretches
Visit parents Yes
Possibly baby sit Wasn't required
Round 2 of trying to find my medical records Yes
After a few more phone calls and refusing to "pretend" that I'm a new patient, I'm very hopeful that my records will be transferred over today. Annoyingly, I checked to see that my 2 sons records had been sent over - one had and one hadn't! Jeez, how difficult can it be?
Helped my mother with some housework, then got to watch her playing with her great grandson. That was a very positive moment
JFT 5th April
Eat sensibly
Do back stretches
Visit parents with their shopping
Do the shopping!
Fix broken curtain rail
Visit opticians (for the third time), hopefully glasses will be right this time

Seems like a few of us are struggling with illness and injury....
I was running for the train last night in high heeled boots and ended up going SPLAT on the floor really hard, fell straight forwards. Was rather a shock - made me think of you @Bex953172 with your recent tumble! Thankfully I wasn't carrying children though....
Today my shoulder really, really hurts and I can't move my arm without pain. Thankfully I had a hair cut booked so someone washed my hair for me not sure i would be able to do that otherwise.
If it isn't at all better tomorrow I might go to the A&E. The boyfriend isn't here today and I can't face waiting for four hours by myself. But will go tomorrow/Sunday if it isn't better. I spoke to my mum earlier and she told my one of her friends fractured her shoulder(!) By falling over. Hopefully mine is just bruised...
This has thrown a bit of a spanner in the works. I have the day off today and was planning to (a) go to the gym to compensate for some of the junk I've been eating this week (b) do lots of productive things like catching up on French. I'm not going to do (a) now and don't feel like doing (b) - my shoulder is aching and I just feel like getting under the duvet and feeling sorry for myself!
Need to put my big girl pants on and snap out of it. I WILL do something productive today!
Happy Friday everyone... 2 -
@bookmeister86 , ouch, that sounds very painful! I think as adults we forget just what a shock a sudden fall is to the system. Makes you appreciate why little children cry when they fall and cut their knees, it hurts!
I hope your shoulder recovers quickly, but don't put off going to A&E if it doesn't. Even if they say it's just bruised, at least you won't be worrying that it's something worse.
And nothing wrong with having a lazy day to recover!3 -

Happy Friday everyone...
I cheered myself up by buying some red lipstick...
The question is, will I be brave enough to wear it in public?? I kept the tester on to walk home and felt like everyone was staring at me...
Going to spend the afternoon on the couch sorting through job alert emails!
And I may treat myself to an episode or two of a rubbish TV show later before the boyfriend gets home...

Thank you! I promise to get it checked out if it doesn't improve soon. I think the boyfriend will make me anyway 0 -
I was negative 197 calories for the day yesterday, not the -250 that I am shooting for but I am still satisfied with it as I didn't snack after dinner. Number on the scale is coming down after our big vacation - we ate anything we wanted! Got a 30 min walk (I am having knee surgery in a few weeks so this is about what I can do) in with a friend.
JFT:
Enjoy getting the house ready for my sister's visit this weekend
Make a delicious vegan, gluten-free dinner for my brother-in-law and us
-250 calories, 30 minutes activity.2 -

- Start RV project at work I was ready, but there were some production issues that took precedence over research work.
- Lunch under 300 calories It wasn't much of a lunch, but it was under 300cal. Peanut butter crackers.
- Leave work early (again) to get new rack installed on new vehicle. Bike on top rather than inside! As long as I skip the drive thru's (Killed a $4000 bike going through a drive through 5 years ago). Totally skipped out early. Got my new roof racks and was able to get to my kiddos school before she went to practice.
- Get stuff to the school for the dinner and do a final fit on the Pinocchio nose for the play. Did it early
- LAUNDRY- always laundry 3 loads
- Dinner under 600 calories Dinner was fend for yourself style and I had a turkey sandwich. It was very satisfying.
- No alcohol Too tired to drink
- Bed by 10:30, I really need to get back on my morning gym regimen. Hubby didn't get home until 10:00, so I stayed up with him until 12:00ish

Positive thought: I'm proud of me for not binging yesterday. It's the first time in a while. I just kept reminding myself that I just had to get through today.
Positive thought for @HEGoddard0928 : Yesterday was a good productive day. That is a great accomplishment sometimes.2 -

Do not disappoint myself, be conscious of my choices.
I feel so much better about my goals yesterday, although I didn’t meet them all I certainly did better and was a lot more conscious of my decisions. I just need to keep it up.
My ribs aren’t hurting as bad today, but I have a pain in my stomach. I assume from the Aleve. Hopefully it goes away soon. Last night I worked on the bachelorette party invites for the MOH for Kaitlyn’s wedding. I need to finish them today, but I really need to work on my resume and do the online training for the Election that I will be working. Hubby is really into his game right now though so I may have to go to the library to work on it.
I really need a computer of my own instead of sharing his.
It’s supposed to be warm here today so I’m hoping to get out for a walk.
