      Thanks for all the well wishes about the new job! I'm going to be a full time Aldi associate. It's a super simple job where I'm not likely to get beat up. Plus it'll give me a lot of time on my feet, moving around so I'll get more steps and lifting and things in. I'm pretty excited.

      Congrats on the new job!
      I completely understand the appeal of a job you can start when you get there and stop thinking about at the end of your shift.
      I'm so glad you are able to change something you wanted to! YAY! *cheers all 'round*

      Eat three meals [more like 2 1/2]
      Low sugar, no grains, no dairy [yep]
      no snacking :cold_sweat: [more like a late breakfast with a second course]
      stay under kj [yes but only by 3kj :joy: ]
      vi-ta-mins! :smiley:
      weigh-in and record [no, my scales have broken somehow, made three attempts and got three different weights +- 2kg :dizzy: ]

      My state is going into a strict quarantine lockdown, which is a sucky time for my scales to conk out -considering I eat my feelings and I got a lot of 'em right now :joy:

      JFT
      Low sugar, no grains
      stay under kj

      stay hydrated!
      put on a hat and sunscreen!
      start sorting books for when new bookcases are moved in
      move medlar in pot to a shady spot
      water potted cherry, apricot, and almonds
      check soil dampness of young leeks, new roses, and potted fig

      Introduce the new rooster (and his hens) to the flock

      I figure it's going to be stressful so I'm reducing my food-related goals for the week and will formalise my goals for getting stuff done around the home

      Weight lift :)
      Log all food :)
      App worksheet :)
      Move brush holder :sjust forgot this was on my list! Will do it today!


      JTS - Thurs 11-19-2020
      Run
      Log all food
      Clean out work inbox
      Move brush holder!!

      @HEGoddard0928 I really did enjoy the food categories. I think it really helped me figure out how to assess what foods were "good" vs "bad" - if we're gonna use those terms. It's a good program - and I do believe it doing whatever helps support the move forward! :-)

      I'm having a hard time hitting my 120 grams of Protein - does anyone have tips for packing protein into a diet without packing in fat at the same time. I am hoping to not have to eat 3 meals of 4oz of grilled chicken breasts each day!!

      @Snowflake1968 I'm really sorry your nursing home has a case of Covid. I hope it can be contained and that you stay healthy.

      JFT Wednesday 18th Nov

      Log everything yes
      Stay in the green no, really didn't
      Do some back exercises yes
      Walk? Weather is horrendous right now no
      Mother's weekly shop yes
      Admin yes
      3 long phone calls for mother, will set aside an hour for them. I hate making phone calls. yes, calls and admin took up about 3 hours!
      Housework yes

      I seem to have missed a day. Yesterday was just busy, and I also was lucky enough to walk with a friend, and we went to a cafe for lunch. First time this year, almost felt normal (apart from wearing a mask!)

      JFT Friday 20th Nov

      admin, my own for a change
      Housework

      Finding it hard to make the best food choices this week, I have left overs and food going out of date that should be eaten. I'm not going to waste it but sometimes it means more calories than I hoped for. It's the usual story of shopping for food when you live alone, and the larger package sizes are relatively cheaper than the small sizes. Or sometimes there are no smaller sizes, only large. I'm good at batch cooking and freezing, but sometimes I don't get it quite right.

        @sviers13 ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜‚ the ladder graphic.

        Covid-19
        Crazy situation here. Our 4 week circuit breaker lockdown ended today. However, we go back into harder lockdown next Friday for at least 2 weeks as cases/deaths are still rising in Northern Ireland. So, of course, people will go bananas for the next week. The 4 weeks did not have the hoped for effect, because too many people are not taking the situation seriously enough.

        Solid day

        For Thursday, get my exercise back on track.

        1900 calories and keep the weekly average below 1950: Over due to one ice cream bar, 440 calories...yikes. 2241. Week average of 1834
        Work out for 85 minutes and work toward my weekly average of 69 minutes a day: 51 minute, 2.84 mile exercise walk. Didnโ€™t work out. Average of 35 minutes a day.
        Make good choices: Great day until the ice cream bar but didnโ€™t keep going. Iโ€™ll take it
        Support my bride:Easy to do
        Eat dinner at the table and stroll afterwards, both unplugged. Donโ€™t eat on the couch: Done, done and partially done. Took a business call at the dinner table


        For Friday, make ground on my exercise minutes.

        1900 calories:
        Work out for 90 minutes, work towards the 60 minute daily average:
        Make good choices:
        Support my bride:
        Eat dinner at the table and stroll afterwards, both unplugged. Donโ€™t eat on the couch:

        JFT Friday 20th Nov

        Log everything everything except biscuits in the evening
        Stay in the green no, biscuits put me over
        Do some back exercises yes
        Walk, raining again yes, got soaked by a lorry going through a puddle!
        Mother's banking/shopping yes, done
        admin, my own for a change yes
        Housework some

        I'm not going to log today. I woke really early and instead of getting up I fell back asleep and now I'm really tired. Now that my holiday let has been closed down I have "free" Saturdays, so I thought I'd treat my house to a professional clean today. I'll strip the bed (and Mum's bed) clean the bathroom and kitchen, and do little repair jobs. It will be nicer than work as I'll have time for tea breaks lol.

        Hope you all have a good weekend :)

        Good day


        For Friday, make ground on my exercise minutes.

        1900 calories: 1881. 1841 average for the week.
        Work out for 90 minutes, work towards the 60 minute daily average: 93 minutes including a 3 mile exercise walk. 46 minute average for the week.
        Make good choices: Made them all day
        Support my bride: Easy to do but declined her invitation to the after dinner stroll
        Eat dinner at the table and stroll afterwards, both unplugged. Donโ€™t eat on the couch: Didnโ€™t stroll after dinner but nailed the others
        Train the dog: No dog training but worked on other projects
        [/quote]

        For Saturday, keep up the momentum.

        1850 calories, keep the weekly average under 1950:
        Work out for 90 minutes, continue to make progress on the 60 minutes a day average goal:
        Make good choices:
        Support my bride:
        Eat dinner at the table and make good on the stroll afterwards, both unplugged. Donโ€™t eat on the couch:
        Train the dog, finish the new freezer hook up:

        missed a day,
        I just wrote a long post then lost it by clicking to another page of JFT :cry: :joy:

          Eat three meals [no, two big ones]
          low sugar, no grains, no dairy [only managed the low sugar today as I was craving a sandwich]
          stay under kj [yes - just]
          weigh-in and record [yep, focus regained! I've decided it doesn't really matter how accurate the scales are, thinking about going to weigh myself on the chemist's scales when I reach a milestone/mini goal weight]
          stay hydrated! [yep]

          come up with a solution to fox proof the east side of the chicken run fence [:tired_face: not even close to a workable solution yet]

          *sigh* make Christmas food list, (think up healthy alternatives if possible)
          go shopping
          ...and buy healthy snacks.
