    Thanks for all the well wishes on my new job :)

    I've now finished my old job! Well, I say finished. With staying in the same company, it's not a clean break, and there is a small amount of stuff I didn't manage to finish that I will probably need to pick up at some point. However, with it not being my main job anymore, I'll be able to pick it up on my own terms when I have time for it (hopefully!). Either way, I'm starting something new!

    I had a really nice virtual leaving drinks last night with the team I'm leaving. I actually got quite emotional (not on the call - afterwards). It's funny, I'd focused so much on the move of role that I hadn't really processed that I'd be leaving my team. And it's a lovely team, so I am actually quite sad about that. However, you can't stay on a role you've outgrown just because of the team. And the good thing is because I'm not leaving the company, I'll still see them around (virtually if not physically!)

    I'm now having a long weekend to have a bit of a break and recharge between jobs. I'm pretty tired, as I worked pretty hard to get stuff done the last couple of works, and I also had quite a bit of stress due to the contract issues. So I definitely need a rest. But I also plan to spend a bit of time thinking and reflecting on goals, resolutions, life, etc. I think time between jobs is a good time to do that.

    Anyway, here are some simple goals for the day:

    - Log everything I eat/drink
    - Be in the green
    - Do 1+ productive thing
    - Spend quality time with boyfriend


    @Snowflake1968 The job move is a career change! :smile: I was working in research and now I'm working in policy/Strategy. I'm excited about it. It's not as big a change as it could be given its the same company, but I'll be doing different things and I'm really looking forward to it.

    @ZizzyBumble Really sorry to hear about your mum. Will be thinking of you. Hugs x

    @littleblackskirt That’s my current basic maintenance calories rounded up to the nearest 100, which I calculated based on age, weight, activity level. I keep my exercise calories as a snack barrier 😂 I had to eat way less when I was losing weight.

    Had a nice time with the girls last night. We met for dinner and drinks, but nobody wanted to go home, so we went bowling. Still home by 10:30. I did have a 3rd beer at the bowling alley.

    Going to do a short ride today, then hubby and I are heading out of town to watch a friend's one man/two act show. One set of Elvis, one set of Sinatra. I'm not a big music person, but it is something different to do. Should be fun!

    @ZizzyBumble I'm so sorry your mom is declining. I'm sure your presence has been a comfort to her these many months. Much love and many prayers.

    JFT Saturday
    - Sleep in
    - Eat breakfast with family
    - Pick up youngest from sleepover
    - Go for a short bike ride
    - Get ready to go out of town

    @jenwalkingfurther I know what you mean about panicking. In the past it seems whenever I approach a “meaningful”weight (my target, the weight I was at X event, or the lowest I’ve been in a year, etc) I will start to completely self sabotage even while telling myself how happy I am to be near that weight. This time at every weight I wake up and think “at least it’s not higher”. I may never get lower than the reading that day, but it’s still better than sitting 5.10,20 pounds higher!

    Yesterday's JFT, 6/12:
    -Stay green!😀
    -Meet your water goal😀
    -Meet your exercise goal😀 I ended the day at 5 miles! I'm pretty pleased with this!
    -Bathe the dog😀
    -Do the dishes (yes, all of them!)😀
    -Water the garden😀
    -Work for at least 30 minutes on an art project😀 I managed to finish the piece I was working on!
    All in all it was a pretty good day. I managed to catch up on some sleep too which was much needed.

    Today's JFT, 6/13:
    -Stay green!
    -Meet my water goal
    -Meet my exercise goal
    -Water the garden
    -Take care of laundry
    -Clean out the dishes dragon hoard I've accumulated
    -Spend at least 30 minutes on one current art project
    I'll be going to my mom's house for dinner, so it'll be a little tough to keep track of my calories tonight. It's going to be hard to resist eating everything in sight, they usually have tons of fresh baked goods and treats around, but I'm determined to make good choices even so. I just hit 32 lbs down from my highest weight and it feels good.

    Carpe diem!

    @littleblackskirt My "stay green" example is a screenshot of mine from the other day, and my total calories include 424 extra calories earned from exercise that day (walked dog 3.8 miles). That's noted in the fine print below the blue boxes. I am not in any race to lose weight by X date, this is my lifestyle, so I have my MFP setting to lose 1/2 pound per week. My daily calorie allowance sans exercise is 1370 which seems unreasonably low to me. Because I like food and to eat, I (almost always) eat my exercise calories.

    @ZizzyBumble You are such a good daughter, I am sure your mum is so grateful for you being there. Hugs!!!

    @rhododendron33 Congrats on your 32# loss!

    Recap F 6/12 ~ rest day
    1) Move hourly / REMEMBER 5 somethings / stairs breaks (basement to 2nd floor) = Fitbit 10,165 :smiley: happy for rest day / 250+ 14/14 boom! 24 floors
    2) Net calories green / 14c water = Net cals -73 :neutral: sodium -846 :/ sugar -22 rhubarb crisp :neutral: fiber excellent :smiley: protein good :) 10c water :/
    3) Work at home / Facebook Live noon / submit daily & weekly updates / back up work from home folder = 4X :) plus had long phone chat w/ favorite co-worker K :smiley:
    4) More home chores ~ already have a few small ones done! :smiley: washed up rest of dishes
    5) Make rhubarb crisp! :smiley:
    6) Floss / retainers 2X :s

    JFT Sat. 6/13
    1) Farmers market 7 a.m. = Got there 7:20 & bought my fresh produce, fish & bread :smiley: forgot eggs (with new layout for social distancing & early days of market, still learning locations of favorite vendors)
    2) Walk dog = 4.51 mi 1:17 ran into RJ so happy dog & happy me B) minimal stretching after
    3) Net calories green / 14c water
    4) Buy flowers for planters
    5) Parking lot church service 5 p.m.?
    6) Floss / retainers

    Today would've been the annual 10K run/walk I have done more than 20X. The weather was ideal for it, cold temp to start (it was 47F when I went to the market), sunny, nice breeze; especially in the long, flat area with no shade in the last mile or so. I really missed being among the thousands of runners/walkers, the spectators, the traditional national anthem played by a saxophonist, Chariots of Fire music at start, sprinklers set up along the route, signs of encouragement, etc. Dog and I walked my virtual event last Sat. Not my usual race pace, because 1) dog and 2) no crowds. I'm struggling recently with missing events that will not be happening this year (many events canceled in March, now lots of fun stuff not happening this summer).

    2020 Goals:
    1) Get weight below 160# (last time was 4/20/19)
    2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
    3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability
    4) Take measurements & log on MFP monthly (I stopped as weight plateaued & went up) = 2.1.20 / 2.29.20 / 4.1.20 (forgot 3.31.20) / 5.1.20 (forgot 4.30.20) / 6.3.20 (forgot at ME again)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking but include weights/circuit & other x-training
    6) Participate in race events ~ have planned 7 5Ks and 2 10Ks at minimum = Frenzy on the Fox 5K 49:36 ave. pace 15:29 / Seroogy's Valentine 5K 46:26.7 ave. pace 14:47 / Badger State Brewing 10K virtual race w/ dog on 4/2/20 1:44:16 ave. pace 16:33 / Prevention virtual 5K Fun & Fit Team on 5/2/20 I walked 3.48 mi w/ dog in 1:01:10 ave. pace 17:33 / RonaRunOff 5/16/20 virtual walk 5.08 miles with dog in 1:23:15 ave. pace 16:23 / 100 Miles Challenge fundraiser (per fitness tracker) & completed 5/18/20 / Bellin Run 10K virtual race w/ dog on 6/6/20 1:41:03 ave. pace 16:14 dog definitely slows my "race pace"
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together
    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states)
    9) Declutter home office, bedroom and basement = basement (boxes) Jan. / home office desk (some) & more basement boxes Feb. / basement boxes & home office (some more) Mar. / decluttered/cleaned in bedroom & more basement boxes Apr. / basement boxes May ~ very pleased w/ my progress / reorg in basement June
    Word for 2020: Persist

    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 "official" weigh-in 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" (have permanently lost half inch ~ bummer)
    GW #1: 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    GW #2: 145 normal BMI

    Saturday: logged everything

    JFT goal: keep on logging!

    This has been a great week, and the first consistent week I've had in a long time. I have restarted many weeks (some of them even in a row) and this is the first week I've finished, for sure since March, and possibly January. Thanks for being here!

    JFT, 6/13/20

    - JFT :smiley:
    - dishwasher :smiley:
    - pick up the living room :smiley:
    - wipe/clean(?) oven :smiley:Cleaned the oven for the first time. I had no idea that it took so long! At one point it got a bit smokey in the house so I had to open a bunch of windows. Thank goodness it was really nice out.
    - healthy meals :disappointed:Neither of them were healthy. I had a sandwich of lunch and cheese fries and wine for dinner...I was planning on making chicken for dinner but Matt wanted take out so I caved.
    - go through pantry :smiley:
    - hit step goal OR workout(Taking it slow right now) :smiley:Hit my step goal and then some!
    - Walmart/liquor store :smiley:I was a little worried about going out while the oven was on but I came home and the house hadn't burned down. Lol. I was very happy about that.
    - D&D :disappointed:Matt got home from work and was completely exhausted and our DM found out he had to work late. So we didn't end up playing. Hopefully, next Saturday we can.

    So Matt just told me that he's built about 60 bikes by himself in the last 3 days. It's mind-boggling to think of that. It just goes to show how good he is at his job.

    My Godmom reached out to me for the first in like 6 months or so yesterday. It was nice to hear from her. I'm going to spend some time with her this afternoon. I'm excited. I miss her so much. So it should be a good time. I don't know how long I'm going to be there so I'm not going to make too many goals.

    JFT, 6/14/20

    - QT with Godmom
    - Healthy dinner
    - Finish cleaning out the oven!
    - Wipe down the top of the stove
    - Only two glasses of wine
    - Have something ready to eat when Matt gets home(he's out at 8pm but has to be back at 7am)
