    I had a very active day yesterday, I stained my door, cleaned the car, did laundry, helped move wood and clean up the yard then I helped Brodey make 21 trays for the wedding. I texted Kaitlyn and asked her if she wanted to come out for supper when she got done work and we ended up working on trays until 1015 last night. She got home and sent me a picture of what the centrepieces will look like. Brodey booked Rodger's Mom's tickets to come for the wedding yesterday too. I am calling her in a bit to let her know.

    Today I have to finish stuff for the bachelorette party and I need to clean the house. All of the in and out this weekend has made it quite messy.

    Tomorrow I am spending the whole day with Kaitlyn, we have a list of places to go and what needs to be done. As of today it is 40 days to the wedding.

    Our outing yesterday was going to the documentary The Biggest Little Farm. The theater had the fancy recliner seats so it worked out comfort wise but I was exhausted afterwards nevertheless. Such an interesting story of Apricot Lane Farms in Moorpark California https://www.apricotlanefarms.com/ and the journey to build up a biodiversity sustainable farm. Check the website out - for those who have little kids lots of fun shorts on the various animals on the farm.

    JFT 5/27/19

    @lafayettenana - I think your goals are totally within reason and since you laid out a plan to achieve them you'll get there. I am not meeting my goals right now, so I need to step up my game and this group helps me do that so much!

    @ZizzyBumble - I thought at B and B's the breakfast menu was only a couple of options. That's impressive that you are making 6 different things for your guests. How many guests can you have at one time?

    @daneejela - You are so positive! I agree 100% how strong the women are on here and it is inspiring for me to see. The last time I lost a significant amount of weight was in 2012, I gained it all back during my Dad's illness and it took me 5 years to start doing something about it again. I think if it wasn't for this group my job loss this winter would have had me giving up again. I am maintaining the loss, I just need to start the actual losing part again as I'm still about 30 pounds from my goal.

    @ginnytez - You are doing well having 78 days in the green. Maybe I should start counting that streak to see how I do. I know that there is no sense until after the wedding though as I have too much coming up.

    @wannabeskinnycat - Children can be exhausting when you're not used to them can't they?

    @korina75 - I took up walking last year at age 49 and love it, I have missed a lot since we are finally just getting spring now, but I can hopefully make up for it in the next few days.

    @maryrobinson40 - LOL tell me, just how hot is it? I literally laughed out loud at that! It was a beautiful day here yesterday and the day before, I'm hoping for the same for days to come now.

    @aubyshortcake - You went over and you didn't workout, but you did 3X the amount of walking you intended so don't beat yourself up too hard. My doctor told me it is impossible for women to lose during that time.

    @Faebert - Is this the last break before summer break?

    @MLHC1 - 11lbs in 30 days is awesome! You've been working hard to do that.

    @purwonder - 2lbs a week is incredible. I haven't been able to do that even once in over a year.

    My plan for minding the kids didn't go to plan as I was so tired yesterday. So my hubby done most of the work and I got to watch Luis & the Alien with them :) They slept in this morning and just playing now. I'll have a nap when they've gone home.

    Looking forward to seeing a good friend tomorrow after work. She’s just got back from 2 weeks in Mexico so lots to talk about.

    @Snowflake1968 - phewww I see the little ones often but I think I forgot just how much energy they have. My nephew bounces off the walls and my niece doesn’t stop talking. I think my head got full :smiley: 40 days to go to the wedding! I’m sure you’ll think of absolutely everything. It can be so stressful so please make sure you fit you time in too.

    @Snowflake1968 we have 3 rooms for 6 guests but prefer to limit it to 4 guests This morning was pretty hectic with 6. We offer quite a few choices and like to showcase the local suppliers. I have to be careful not to eat everything that has not been chosen by guests - I so hate waste! It's lovely that guests come to Skye for the top notch places to eat dinner but a bit daunting when I serve breakfast the next day!

    Weekly Weigh-In = When I'm active I eat back calories. My weaknesses: I love food... my sweet tooth, especially chocolate... portion control... FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). Saturday a.m. is my MFP weigh-in logging day, and I peek occasionally other days. My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. No goal dates set ~ this is not a diet but my lifestyle.

    Age 61, 5'4.5"
    GW #1: 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    GW #2: 145 normal BMI
    UG maintain: 145 - 150 [Need to be realistic! Revised from 140 - 145]

    11/5/15 = 195.0 joined MFP with no real plan except It's. Not. A. Diet.

    60 minutes intentional walking :)
    Memorial Day Parade-help at church :)
    Sort stack of papers in bedroom :( BUT FaceTime with son instead :)
    Family dinner :) Very pleasant visit

    Weight down another 1.2 this week. Currently 151 (was 162 on March7 when started back with logging. This is least I have weighed since July 2018. Just occurred to me I posted my weight here, and my husband died never knowing my weight! I must be a sick woman, but I find that amusing!

    Back to work tomorrow. These days off have me thinking retirement looks good!

    Good morning! Yet again I ate way too much, and for the first time ever I skipped my workout for no reason other than I just didn't wanna. It's crazy how much hormones can affect things.

    @korina75 thank you so much! I'm really excited and nervous.

    Good luck with the revision @bookmeister86!

    I’m in a bit of a funk this morning. Meant to go for a long run and didn’t end up going. No bad thing to take a rest day but it wasn’t planned. Hopefully I’ll feel more motivated tomorrow. The good news is I’ve finished my reports with the rest of the week now clear. Some admin done this morning and maybe I’ll burn some calories with a garden tidy this afternoon.

    Monday goals recap:
    - morning workout ✅
    - put away laundry ✅
    - reports ✅ finished them - whoop!
    - quality time with the kids ✅ went to the cinema and saw Aladdin!
    - bed by 10 ✅

    Tuesday goals:
    - rest day ✅
    - call vet and car service ✅
    - walk/jog to cafe with kids
    - health food store
    - take P to play date pm, quality time with L
    - start paperwork and gardening?
    - bed by 9:30

    Have a good day everyone x

    Good morning my friends!

    Back to the grind, I guess. I love holiday weekends but I also hate them because it makes it that much harder to get back into the swing of work. I hope everyone is doing well this morning. I'm in a pretty good frame of mind at the moment but it is also only 6 am. Lol.

    I'm spending some time over D's house this afternoon and depending on what time I get out of work I may stop by the gym before I go. I'll bring my gym clothes with me just in case. I went for a walk around a local neighborhood with my parent's dog, Bay, yesterday. It was really nice. I worked up a good sweat but mainly because it was really hot out. Lol. Way hotter than it should be here at the end of May. I'm giving more and more credence to Matt's idea that someone in the world has a weather machine and they obviously don't like us.

    I haven't done a positive thought most of the month but I think it is something that I need to start doing again. So here is todays: This morning I was able to get up when I wanted to without hitting the snooze button AND I didn't go back to sleep after I took my shower.

    I think that those are pretty good positives because they are usually things I have a lot of trouble with.

    Okay so onto goals!

    JFT, 5/28/19

    1. Log all my food(estimate the best I can at D's house)
    2. If I leave early from work GO TO THE GYM
    3. Get clothing together for laundry/fold clean stuff
    4. Finish the dishes
    5. GET COFFEE
    6. Figure out dinner for Matt
    7. FINISH THE DISHES!!!! THERE ARE ONLY A FEW LEFT!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!(Don't you love my little pep talk?)
    8. Matt Quality Time
    9. Bed before 10:30

    Okay got to run! Have a great day everyone!

    1. 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). Add lamp and wobble board to grocery list.
    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). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
    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! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options.
    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: Dentist. Onco. PCP. Call to set up checkups with Dass (October). GET MAGAZINES FOR COLLAGES FROM DOCTORS.
    7. Theater: Audition for Mamma Mia???
    8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling and taking items to the dump.
    9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday.

    WFTY: Climbing.
    Positive thought: I can make it.

    Good morning! Yet again I ate way too much, and for the first time ever I skipped my workout for no reason other than I just didn't wanna. It's crazy how much hormones can affect things.

    @korina75 thank you so much! I'm really excited and nervous.

    @maryrobinson40 where do you live? Your weather sounds a lot like ours!

    Yesterday 5/26:

    1. Give Rukia her a.m. pills 😁
    2. Stay within calorie goal😞
    3. Get a minimum of 5,000 steps😁 I actually got 15,000 because I needed to get myself out of the house to stop eating everything!
    4. Do workout😞
    5. Put away laundry😞 no but I did wash a load

    @aubyshortcake I Live in North Carolina. The temperatures aren't usually that high here. I used to
    say we're the comfortable state... Not used to these numbers so soon...

    Ah ok, yes I think this year has been breaking records. It's a bit scary! I live in Southwest Florida and I think we've hit 95 a couple times in the past week! 😰

    Yesterday was a complete rest day for me and now I am ready for getting out of the house. Tomorrow will be 3 weeks since my surgery. Maybe I'll drive myself to the grocery store! This coming weekend I am getting together with a group of close friends (8 of us) for our annual Chick Weekend. We've been getting together for 21 years. It all started when 2 of them turned 50 and now people are turning 70. How the heck did THAT happen???? This will be a melancholy year as one of us succumbed to cancer. We're all eager to be together. My husband will drive me the 4 1/2 hours to the rental house and then spend the weekend with a close friend in Santa Barbara.

    Being at home and feeling better has lead to more day time snacking - I was about 200 in the red yesterday. Time to get more active.

    JFT 5/28/19
    Pretrack to 1500-1600 calories
    Get 4000 steps in and PT exercises X2
    Do some chores - clean off patio furniture, grocery shop
    No snacking or wine after dinner.

    Have a good week everyone.

    I checked out this weekend. Had planned meals, tossed them to the wind Saturday at work for donuts and pizza. Had plans to order a healthy meal, got mcdonalds on the way home instead. Attempted to portion out correct amount of brownie serving, ate half the batch. Friday was great though, the dress fit - and I ordered a Cesar salad with grilled salmon. Fortunately I got my steps in at work on Saturday and did lots of gardening Sun/Mon so atleast I kept moving. I am SO pooped today though.
