    Continued Post...

    You have become empowered by the word "no." As a fellow Believer I feel compelled to share this Scripture with you---and of course, it is speaking to me as well.

    "Therefore, Mary, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, (speaking about the faithful people who walked before us) let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him (Jesus) who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Heb 12:1-3

    You are throwing off what is hindering you...just by using that one little word...NO :)

    (Here is the same passage from The New Living Translation version:) Hebrews 12 1-3 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t become weary and give up.

    Peace and joy!

    Well, yesterday was a bust diet wise. I had a plan for how I was going to deal with a picnic. But then it was raining and we went to the pub instead, which I did not have a plan for. Gah. So I just went with my normal habits, and large food and drink were had.

    It was sort of worth it though. The food was when four of us went for dinner after the pub, including our new acting CEO who I've worked with for a few years. We had a really good time and I think it was a good opportunity to get to know her which has got to be a good thing. I also got the opportunity to ask to have a coffee with her to talk about my career options, which she said yes to :smiley: So, hopefully a successful night all in all.

    Today I'm going for dinner with my friends, I've picked a restaurant where they have light options, and have already chosen (and logged) what I'm going to eat. I'm not going to drink either - I had enough yesterday and I want to make sure I stick to my food choices!

    Yesterday's commitments:

    - Log EVERYTHING I eat >:)
    - Stay within maintenance >:)
    - 3+ bottles water >:)
    - Buy diet soft drink to take to picnic :neutral:

    - No eating whilst standing >:)
    - Savour every bite >:)
    - Talk back to sabotaging thoughts >:)
    - Give myself credit! >:)
    - Stay positive :neutral:

    - 45 minute lunch break :smiley:
    - Read response cards x2 >:)
    - Meditate :/
    - 2+ of French podcast, reading, Duolingo :/
    - Leave evening out by 9 >:)
    - Lights off by 11 >:)


    Today's commitments:

    @maryrobinson40 , I apologize that I highjacked saying No when you didn't mean it to be for anyone else.
    I already say no to my mother regularly. She has always fed visitors with cakes and biscuits, and now I visit almost every day I have to refuse. But I think I have to say no to myself too.

    Okay, so true to my word i said id get a plan together! With help from @toaljasa ! I now have a list of the things i used to do, (and all of them i currently dong do LOL!) and ive picked one!

    So to start off, ive picked perfect logging.
    I used to log every gram of food that went in my mouth. Even measuring milk i put in my cup of tea!
    So ill admit when i start now it wont be perfect, but if I at least log everything (even if i have to guess a couple of weights) then atleast ive not missed anything and i can tweak on the actual measurements later, i think i need some new scales.

    So thats WHAT i need to do. But HOW im going to do it is log on whilst eating. This way i cant forget, i dont have to struggle later trying to remember a whole days worth of food!


    Oh and i think i could squeeze one more goal! Inspired by Mary's story, im going to say NO.
    I used to do this pre-Casey and i can vouch that it is definitely empowering!
    If i want go change i need to feel in control, and this will help with that!

    Thank you @maryrobinson40 for sharing!

    Today started both good and bad.
    First I weighted and got surprised that I actually lost 2kg. That means that I've achieved one of the mini goals that I wasn't expecting to achieve at least for another 2,3 weeks. It's one more evidence that body really works in mysterious ways. I had more low-calorie weeks that got me nowhere scale wise, and then when I increased a bit my food intake and expected to actually gain weight - I've lost some.
    It's a confirmation that weight loss just takes time and happens in waves. At least, it's like that in my case.

    The bad thing is that today I have yelled at my elderly parents, which is something I never do (I am very protective of them). We resolved things quickly, but I feel ashamed and sorry that I made them feel bad. I snapped because at one point it was just too much for me. I love them a lot and I would like to make them happy and satisfied, but there are some things that are out of my control. They have a complicated relationship with my sister and I feel really sorry for them (also, she is my sister so I feel bad for her too). Usually, I listen with compassion and give them space to vent. But sometimes they just dive into unhappiness over small and irrelevant things and I just fail to pull them out of it. Then I start to feel angry because I hate to feel powerless.

    I went cycling with my friends on Sunday. We went up a long steep hill. At the end of it we are just waiting for the others to catch up. Our friend just collapsed and stopped breathing. It was so scary. A stranger applied CPR whilst I got the ambulance. We were just 500 mtrs from hospital and the ambulance came within minutes. He was unresponsive for 20 minutes or so before they finally got a pulse. If we weren’t with him he would be dead. He just got out of ICU after 3 days. Doesn’t look good for him.
    So that’s my excuse for letting go of everything. :(
    I don’t even feel like trying lately. Maybe a few more days.

    OMG, that is so crazy! What a traumatic event for you as well, and I hope your friend recovers. Just awful.

    JFT 6/26

    Swim/yoga
    Stay within calories
    healthy choices
    Lots of water
    mindful eating
    Catch up on to do list

    Should have a good day to catch up on work and the house. Did a lot of running/walking yesterday so today will be swimming/yoga to do some strength and recovery. Gained in the last week due to illness and a few unhealthy choices so have been trying to lose the weight I gained back. Frustrating but part of the process so not dwelling. Just trying to make up for it with activity and healthy choices. Finally starting to feel better thankfully and have an appt to get things checked out next week (it's period related). Anyway, off to get to this day! Hope everyone struggling finds some peace today.

    @jacqui2494 , I'm not surprised you haven't been concentrating on dieting. What an awful thing to happen, your friend was very lucky that the CPR worked. Look after yourself and take it easy x

    @daneejela , it can be very difficult to cope with things which are outwith your control. I try to deal with it now by telling myself there are things I can't change however much I might worry about them, so there is no point in worrying.
    In fact, of all the things I would like to change right now, the ONLY thing I have control over is my weight! No excuse then lol.

    I've been into town to do parents requests. Now my back is agony, gentle jobs for the rest of the day I think.

    JFT Wednesday
    1. Feed cats. Meds. Tea! Log 1 item. Chop celery. Duo. Pack lunch and log it. Leave for park by 8:50. Post JFT.
    2. Read book during breaks at park. Input contacts. NO EXTRA SNACKS. NO.
    3. Meal prep! Prelog for Thursday. Blog post.
    4. Drink more water. No, more. Keep the pitcher in the fridge full. You're not actually hungry. Make some tea. Drink more water!
    5. Therapy exercises at 9:30: lunges, push-ups, ankle lifts, box jumps, plank. MEDS. Floss, rinse, brush teeth. JFTomorrow.
    6. In bed by 9:45; devices off by 10:00. Alarm set for 6:00. Meeting 9:15 Friday. Check on audition for MM and look for Strongest Suit music. Monday visit Z. Next Thursday is massage day! Check in with D4D next week; complete units & survey. Ask about how to support new AP. Next week - set up assessment switch-outs on OW. Practice hair braiding with D. Check on appts for drs. Remind D to ask his dad about the table. Check with D about ceiling and taking items to the dump. START BLOGGING AGAIN. 3 posts/week? Schedule assessments and return dates (check last term's plans for unit length). Put jewelry away. Call garden about passes for Sunday. Choose Otterboxes. Thurs - leave workout early for appt. Check on Aladdin. Fold laundry.

    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    January 2019: 186.0
    February 2019: 187.0
    Today: 196.2

    Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
    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).
    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. Schedule assessments for Fall 2019; plan out return times. Align assessments with OW units. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to PB for comments due Friday. PB usernames 6 digits, no 19 or 20s, no birthdates. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri.
    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. NOTE: ATTEND POST FLEX DAY RATHER THAN PRE FLEX DAY. Upload summer project checklist July 1.
    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. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Get bikes fixed.
    10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter.

    WFTY: Climbing. *sigh* Time gets away from me. I really, REALLY enjoyed visiting my bestie, but we went out to eat and it was all amazing and my weight is continuing to go up.

    I had a good day yesterday, the only thing I have going on right now besides all of the new job/wedding/company stuff is very sore calves. I don't know why, but I had a charlie horse the other morning and the legs are still not relaxing, they are tight and sore and feel like I'm going to get another one at any minute. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I'll get back on this evening to catch up.

    I miss you all!

    @Snowflake1968 , I had to google "charlie horse" as it is not a phrase used in the UK. So that is my new info for today :)
    Do you have the pain in both legs? I ask as pain which doesn't go away could occasionally be a sign of a deep vein thrombosis which is serious. But unlikely if you have it in both legs. The only thing that ever helped me was sitting on the floor and pulling my toes upwards, I imagine it must stretch something and gave relief. Hope you get it sorted soon.

I plan to walk dog F a.m. since first session doesn't start until 8:30.

    Yesterday I did not get my exercise or Breakthrough study done. But everything else was completed. I went way over my fat---still getting used to prelogging and eating fewer calories than I have been in my maintain mode. What an adjustment this has been!

    JFT, 6/26
    Drink 8 cups of water
    Pre-log (done)
    Exercise (done)
    Breakthrough study
    Yardwork (done)

    Y'all have a great day. The @jacqui2494 story is another reminder for me to seize the moment. Choose joy. Live my life to the fullest. Because one day, I am going to die. Don't know when, and I pray it's not for a long long time, but there's a pretty good chance that I am!!!

    Peace and joy!

    Just waiting for our guests to depart then we've 3 rooms to clean and beds to remake etc. I only ate half a slice of the spare toast, I had porridge before cooking for the guests and that helped prevent me from being a human dustbin!

    Another good day for me, the plan is to get up early tomorrow for a swim but I'm not overly committed!

    Well i think ive logged everything.
    Dinner was a lot of guess work so might be over in cals for the day but after calculating what i thought im left with 26 cals.

    I dunno, feeling a bit meh today.
    The good thing is ive logged!

    Ash has just bought a pizza, crisps and chocolate.
    All of which he normally shares.

    Great prsctice for saying NO.
