    I have managed to get 2 bottles of water in today and hope to get 3 before bed. It will be the first day in months that I also resisted having a pop.

    Hubby has had a lot of health issues and is really trying, it’s time I got back to it too.



    Great day ! I keep trying to give up diet pop ... have not been successful at it!
    I am so sorry your hubby is having health issues.. but it will be so much easier for you if you are both trying to lose weight. So much easier than trying to do it alone.

    Just for Today:
    • I will eat mindfully :)
    • I will drink 80+ oz of water :)
    • I will eat veggies with hummus or fruit for snacks today :)Also had some mixed nuts, but was within calorie goal and wasn't a cookie so I consider that a win!
    • I will take a 30 minute walk with dog or get 30 minutes of activity inside, depending upon weather :sBoo!
      Snow and slippery roads, and was afraid of falling. Was a pretty night with the snow falling when I got home just at dusk, but just couldn't risk it. Didn't hit the treadmill either...grandkids managed to mess the belt up at Christmas AGAIN!
    • I will begin thinking about 2020 goals--which habits I want to replace with healthier habits :)Starting a list
    • I will pack my lunch bag tonight, lay out an outfit and set up coffeemaker to prepare for tomorrow :)
    • I will write 5 somethings in my gratitude journal for today :(Got sucked into a movie in Netflix
    • I will read Simple Abundance and Dodie Osteen's daily reading before bed :(See above
    • I will be in bed on time and sleeping earlier than normal. No late night You Tube binges! :(See above. Darn movie. LOL!
    • I will be "in the present" tonight when I get home. :)Yup. See above. Netflix movie with husband. No screen time.


    Good morning! I have an early meeting at work so hopped on to list goals. It's me and my husband's 20th anniversary today. Celebrating at home with crab legs tonight. Happy me! Have to work all day but will be done a little early since going in early. Happy me again!

    @Snowflake1968 We are going to Arizona to visit Tim's sister. While we are out there, we will go see my dad, stepmom and my sister & family will be there from Alaska also! Then we are going to rent a car and just sight see. I'm excited to see Sedona area. Always wanted to see Sedona! So, Lord willing, that is our plan. Can't wait! We are going for a whole week. It's been a very long time since we have gone anywhere for a week together.

    I'll hop on later. Gotta get to work. Have a great day everyone!

    JFT Monday

    - Take pregnancy test (OMG I'm 46yo!) - :smiley: NEGATIVE, now I need another explanation for the way my body feels.
    - Beginner Peloton Class :smiley: Only 20 min, but better than 0 minutes. Thought I was gonna puke after.
    - Shower and work by 8:00, :smile: 8:10, close enough.
    - Try new protein bars for breakfast :smiley: Not my favorite, not sure 1/2 a bar counts as breakfast.
    - Drink at least equal amount of water to soda :smiley:
    - Log everything, GBU :smiley:
    - Moderate Lunch :smiley:
    - No snacking at work on junk :smiley:
    - Research Rowing Camp for S. Weird to send her away to Michigan for a month in the summer. :smiley:
    - Psychiatrist appt later. I feel good mentally, but maybe the meds need adjusted so I'll feel better physically. :smiley:
    - Moderate Dinner :smiley: Spaghetti is hard to moderate, but I did. GO me!
    - One evening snack, if it fits. :smiley:
    - No alcohol :smiley:
    - Make an Action plan for the New Year and write it down! :smiley:

    Goals for 2020
    - Get back on my real bike in the spring.
    - Take time each Thursday to teach my daughters (and a friend or 2) to cook. College isn't that far off.
    - Peleton 240 out of 365 days - Roughly 5 days a week with a little room for bad days
    - Use MFP to stay accountable for my intake
    - Mini Goal: Lose 10 pounds by April Fools Day!

    Wow, wow, wow... It's been like forever since I've had all smiley faces on my goals. I'm super proud of me. I'm glad I decided not to wait until the new year to start getting on track. I even took time to read my Bible yesterday. My weight was still going up and I and still struggling with energy levels, but we made another med change which will hopefully help. I really think if I can kick the energy deficit I can conquer the weight loss thing. After all I really enjoy being active.

    Didn't want to get up and exercise this morning, but I did and I'm glad I did. Pretty mellow NYE plans for the evening. Bowling with the teens from church 6 - 8 (late session was full and really expensive), then heading home to celebrate with the kids and their friends. Probably just play board games and watch the ball. Hope y'all have a save and happy NYE!

    JFT Tuesday

    - Early morning Peloton :smiley:
    - Work 7:30 - 4:30 if I can stand to stay that long
    - Protein bar for breakfast
    - Log everything
    - Stay under maintenance calories (~1600)
    - 8000 steps (Its cold and windy out so this may be a stretch goal today)
    - Lite lunch to allow for pizza at dinner
    - bowling with teens from church
    - Read a little in Deuteronomy
    - Kiss my hubby at midnight (if I can stay awake)

    I love a fresh start! Not going to do anything but move forward at this point.

    Drink lots of water
    Make healthy choices
    Stop eating when full!

    Headed to an indoor water park with the family overnight, we'll see how it goes!

    Happy New Year, everyone!

    Today I have done some balance practice. I'm going to do some core work, portion out some of the soup my husband made, meal prep for next week, go for a run, and then we're visiting friends this evening. And I'm going to try to log on and check in tomorrow morning.

    JFT - Wednesday Jan 1
    2L of water
    Log all food

    I am going to get back to posting my daily goals. I am so unhappy with how I have failed myself and the only way I can fix that is to get back at it.

    I am still in a lot of pain, but I can get into the habit of logging and drinking water and most importantly posting my goals daily! I swear that the daily goals and this thread was the biggest help I had until I started failing in July.

    My weight this morning was 191.2. Just 10 lbs less than when I started in Feb 2018. It’s discouraging that I had made it to 175 about a week before Kaitlyn’s wedding but I know I can do it again. It is going to take a lot of discipline to say no at work to all of the treats and such that come in all the time, but I’m determined to do it.

    JFT Tuesday

    - Early morning Peloton :smiley:
    - Work 7:30 - 4:30 if I can stand to stay that long :( Only made it half a day
    - Protein bar for breakfast :smiley:
    - Log everything :smiley:
    - Stay under maintenance calories (~1600) :smiley:
    - 8000 steps (Its cold and windy out so this may be a stretch goal today) :neutral: 7002 I'll take it

    - bowling with teens from church :smiley:

    Is there a new thread yet? Day 1 of my 240 days of Peloton in 2020. Bumped up to a 30 minute regular class today from the beginner class, but kept to a low impact. It was hard for me, but I did it and I'm proud of me. Weighed this morning and I'm at an high for the last 20 years, 168.2. Plan to do measurements and photos monthly as another tracking metric when weight is stagnant.

    Tim made a huge breakfast this morning: Bacon, eggs, biscuits and gravy. I really, really wanted some biscuits and gravy, but chose to forgo it and have bacon & eggs only. Yikes its like I made a good decision.

    Happy New Year to all and I hope it's fabulous just like you!

    @pridesabtch There is a new thread! Joan posted it on the post before your last one! HOORAY for a longer Peloton ride! That's so awesome and you have every right to be proud of yourself! I know that I am of you! We need to de-Christmas the house too.
