    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    January 2019: 186.0
    February 2019: 187.0
    Today: 198.2

    Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
    1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for 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. 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: ATTENDED PRE FLEX DAY.
    6. Medical: Dentist Apr 30 8 AM but check on meetings and RS. Onco Apr ???. PCP Schedule for July. ObG schedule for October. PCP - allergy shots?
    7. Theater: Mary Poppins Sun Dec 8 1:15. Amen Corner Thu Dec 19 5:45. EGL Fri-Sat 3:30.
    8. House: Mineral oil on tile spots. Check with D about ceiling.
    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. Buy new bikes and bike rack for car.

    Sorry I've been MIA, got sick last week & had a wicked sore throat that made it painful to swallow. Strep test was negative but doc has me on prednisone since I'm allergic to amoxicillin. Lost some weight because of that, but now weight has rebounded as I'm eating again. Of course. Anyway, yesterday I starting logging again, and even got out for dog walk.

    I am 57 JFT posts behind, no time to catch up right now, but I will later. I have been thinking of and missing all of you, and keeping @Faebert especially in my prayers. For now...

    JFT M 12/9
    1) Move hourly / stairs breaks / 5 somethings
    2) Eating at my desk today (crummy weather & hubby has appt) / net calories zero / 14c water
    3) Complete PA-RM & submit for review / discuss BK request for participation in meeting / catch up Inbox (again)
    4) Evening: Advent devotional / decorate / put away clean dishes / make apple crisp / other?
    5) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / bed & tv off 10:20

    Forgot to mention, I was able to successfully change my Fitbit device by myself (yay me) then ran into firmware update glitches. Tried rebooting Fitbit, Bluetooth & phone but no luck. Finally enlisted hubby's help over weekend, and I just needed a little more patience (and restart each device with more down time before turning things on). Viola! I have Fitbit again. Since my old one was going to go kaput eventually, I'm glad it happened while I was sick and not moving much ~ no pressure from Fitbit to get up and move lol.

    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 62, 5'4.5"
    GW #1: 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    GW #2: 145 normal BMI

    @Faebert Praying for a good outcome for you & fast recovery.

    yoyoed this weekend again. yesterday while at the computer had a bagful of these chocolate energy (from caffeine) bites next to me and just gobbled them up so couldn't sleep last night. Going to get rid of the rest of them. I'm better during the week, more structured.

    Yesterday was really nice and we got a lot done. Eating wise was not the prettiest given I want to be watching my sugars/carbs. I couldnt resist the lemon poppy raspberry jam muffin when we stopped for breakfast. I'm actually drooling right now thinking about it. My carb cravings are REAL today. But the rest of the day was great - grocery shopped, cut down a christmas tree, DH made beef stew, meal prepped chicken for salads and made lunches, on top of lots of cleaning. Stepdad is coming over today while we are at work to get started on the Nursery! Hooray! I have a work seminar tomorrow in NY - it's going to be a 16 hour day with the travel. I'm not driving so maybe I can catch some zzz's but I'm also a little worried about car sickness, so fingers crossed! It won't be a pretty eating day again because I'm not comfortable packing a lunch/dinner with that much travel time in between so I'm at the mercy of what is served. But atleast I'm back on the bus making daily effort to do my best! Still havent heard from my midwife on when I'll be asked to complete the 3 hour glucose test so just trucking along until then.

    Calorie Goal Challenge ~|~ Start Date: 4 Nov
    (I'm extending this Personal Challenge)
    Stay under goal until Christmas Eve
    Days Under: 33/35

  • The key is spoil yourself once you have achieved your aims and goals or do an act of kindness. Either way it helps you...
    If you have more calories one day compensate the next day.
    If you can exercise that helps burn the calories or simple strength exercises help.
    I have 1 stone to loose. Thanks to fitness pal I can enjoy anything within my calories and the incentives are amazing.
    Anyone taking the plunge to change their life are amazing in whatever capacity. Some weeks I gained or maintained. I just started again the following day.
    Happy Christmas 🎄 ⛄️🌟

    Ok I’m back into tracking goals on here, even though they aren’t really weight loss based. Last night my sister managed to wash my hair for me and it’s made me feel so much better today. I can’t wait until these drains are gone and I can have a proper shower!!

    Goals for today are the same as yesterday. It’s all a bit boring!

    Monday goals recap:
    - morning routine - empty drains, meds, dress ✅
    - Post op exercises x4 ✅ ✅ ✅ ✅
    - Keep eye on protein intake ✅
    - 8 glasses water ✅
    - Keep going with fibre drink (anaesthetic and meds have messed up my stomach totally) ❎ having this morning instead

    Tuesday goals:
    - morning routine - empty drains, meds, dress ✅
    - Call nursing team at 9am
    - Post op exercises x4
    - Protein and veggies
    - 8 glasses of water
    - Fibre drink ✅

    Have a great day all x

    JFT Monday 9th December

    Back exercises (been really bad at doing these recently) no
    No snacking yes
    No buying chocolate or xmas treats none bought
    Phone bio mechanics clinic no

    I wasted a lot of yesterday as I felt so exhausted. So frustrating as I have a lot to do. Did discuss house move for a couple of hours though. If it goes ahead I have a lot of cleaning, sorting and packing to do, I've been in this house a long time!

    JFT Tuesday 10th December

    Back exercises
    No snacking
    No buying chocolate
    Phone bio mechanics clinic
    Get xmas decs down from attic and put tree up
    Do shopping for parents (the weather is atrocious, I really don't want to go :) )

    I've lost another pound, helped by having NO treat stuff in the house. So every time I think I'd like a little something to eat between meals, there is nothing in the house. I live just far enough away from the shop to make it a nuisance to go and buy something :)

    Pretty much failed on everything yesterday so starting over today. It seems once I’m out of my routine, everything falls apart. Guess this isn’t the best time of year to be staying on routine.

    JFT Tuesday
    1. Log all food
    2. Drink 150oz water
    3. Gym
    4. Meditate

    Monday 9 December

    Log accurately >:) will catch up now
    Stay in the green >:)
    5 fruit and veg :)
    Water :)
    Fitbit exercise goals :)

    I need to remember my word for the year is methodical and improve on menu planning, shopping and pre-logging as I’ve been slipping and not always making good choices. I’ve also been tempted to a few extra glasses of wine!

    Not that good a start to the week!
