Recap T 1/21 ~ Yippee ki-yay! Finally got up to early alarm (ok, after several snoozes) and did treadmill workout before work. Not exactly my full distance but it's a start. Back in the habit again? hahaha
1) Walked 2.6 mi treadmill + cool down + stretched before work = yay me!
2) Move hourly / pace during noon webinar / stairs breaks / 5 somethings = Fitbit 14,357 steps, 250+ 14/14 boom! 36 floors
3) Prelogged everything but supper / net calories zero (yay exercise cals) / 14c water = Net cals -35 close enough! sodium green , sugar green , fiber good, protein excellent & 14c water
4) BC-CC / request email for f/u OAHC mgmt response / contact HD for webinar assist as necessary
5) Evening: boil eggs / put dishes in racks away / massage appt 7:30 / other? started grocery list & organized ingredients for W supper
6) Unplug 9:30 / floss / retainers / bed & no tv 10:20 I think so (treadmill W before work)

JFT W 1/22
1) Move hourly / stairs breaks / 5 somethings
2) Prelogged meals & snacks / stick w/ plan & NO snacks after supper / net calories zero / 14c water
3) BC-CC / deal w/ chapter emails / don't let inbox get bigger
4) To-do's: return locker key mistakenly taken home / make white chicken chili / complete meal planning & grocery list / wash dishes / prep lunch & clothes for Th workplace lunchtime hike, including boots b/c we might finally get to snowshoe / other?
5) Unplug 9:00 / FLOSS / RETAINERS / bed & no tv 10:00 (x-train R before work)

Last night I had a wonderful 90 min. massage. Because appt. was later than I usually go, it ended later, and I didn't have much down time once home. My body was telling me this morning, no early workout, so I reset alarm. Altered plans, today will now be my 2nd rest day this week, and workout plans decided for Th - Sat.

Have a great day, everyone!

Restarted MyFitnessPal in November and have managed to lose 10 pounds. It feels very SSSLLLOOOOWWWWWWWW. My favorite activity is to read at home. Sadly, I like to EAT and read at home. Any suggestions how to read but avoid the snacks? My goal is to lose 40 more pounds, get happier and stay healthy. Thank you for any helpful advice.

Maybe drink a warm cup of tea instead of eating. I enjoy the various flavors Yogi Tea provides. I find the various flavors help curb my desire to snack.

Congrats on the weight loss so far!!!!

Log but had to make some guesses.
Stay in the green I think so, when I cook for my mum I have to make small nutritionally dense meals whereas I normally aim for a large meal bulked out with lots of veg.
5 fruit and veg
Water
Fitbit exercise goals

Scale has not moved since Monday - I guess my logging is not as accurate as it could be combined with some impatience. At least it’s not gone in the wrong direction I was trying to bank some calories for the weekend when I know I’m going to be in the red. My Fitbit suggests less alcohol and more water is having a positive effect on resting heart rate.

I'm not sure if I'll use MFP to record my food as I like to eat Paleo/Pegan and the joy of that is not logging. BUT clearly I need some accountability right now for things like drinking enough water, remembering my vitamins, eating breakfast, getting enough exercise. So, we'll see how I approach this accountability.

I did MFP from 2012 to 2016 and then I went Paleo. The think that really made me mad was the amount of days logging. Mine wouldn't be consistent with consistent logging. My days would reset. I contacted MFP to correct my day count and they would. Made me wonder what I did that would clear the day count every thought I logged on a daily basis. I know minor thing to discourage a person, but it does. I logged on last night and a friend that has been on about as long as me has a day count in the 1000's. That could be me if my days wouldn't stop resetting. OK whining session over.

TerriRichardson112

I did post yesterday, but don’t know what happened to it. Also I was locked out most of today.

Another New day! Another opportunity to achieve great things, one step at a time.

The only failure is giving up!

WFTY: DEPTH
Depth Year - Updates

I definitely have way too much stuff. I need to streamline my existence, resist adding more stuff, and start using what I have already got. I have been working towards doing this for several years with my decluttering. I need to stop the march of consumerism, and putting money into the pockets of other people by buying things I want rather than actually need.
03 Jan: This is going to be way harder than I thought. Need to work out strategies and guidelines for what I can and cannot purchase.

1. I have a stack of books which I haven't read. I will read one of those book a month, and not buy any more books this year. I will source any other books I want to read at the library.
2. 04 Jan: The Illusionists - Rosie Thomas > 5 chapters per week
3. 12 Jan: finished chapter 18, so well ahead of goal.
   
4. 13 Jan: finished my 1st book: Will start the 2nd tomorrow
   
5. Book 2: Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine, Gail Honeyman
7. I have closets full of clothes that no longer fit. I will work my way through them over the next two months, and either alter them to fit, or donate them to charity.
8. 07 Jan: One bag already full and ready to go to the charity shop
9. I have a lot of Craft supplies. I will optimise what I have before I buy any new supplies. Sticking to this one will be difficult.
10. 07 Jan: Depth Year: I have Patchwork Craft this morning. I will pick out one of my ongoing projects and work on it to completion. No new projects until I have finished at least 3 ongoing ones.
11. 14 Jan: Craft Group: working on patchwork project from last Tues.

Well if I could have stayed away from McDonald’s at lunch it might have been better. I am having so many arguments with Hubby about food that I don’t even want to try to cook or eat at home. I’m so incredibly proud of him and his commitment to getting healthier but man we are at opposite ends of how to go about getting there.

I fear he’s trying to hard and is going to give up and I think he thinks I’m not trying to help at all.

What a battle, I guess it’s one of those careful what you wish for situations because I’ve been wanting him to care about his health for a good 15 years and he kept shrugging me off.

Tomorrow is another day and I’ll try again to make comments to everyone. I am reading and miss you all.

@jromf Hi. I also love to read and eat. What I had to face, though, was I was doing the 2 together as an escape mechanism—the food (usually but not always junk food) helped “drug” me and the book helped take me away from my problems. I’ve now set a rule that I cannot eat while reading (or watching TV, etc—no media), and I’ve found I’m reading less but better quality. To minimize temptation, I leave my kindle upstairs (we already have a rule in the house that eating occurs only in the kitchen or at the dining table). So maybe set rules for yourself about where in the house you can eat and where you can read...? Good luck, I’m on the same journey of 40+ to lose!

Pretty good day. Another tiny scale win, and good eating day (well below target) although I let myself get too hungry between lunch and dinner. Luckily I had a protein bar in my purse to help stave it off.

@jromf - Reading is one of my favorite activities too It's also a big part of my job as a writing instructor. so reading and eating can too easily be justified as multitasking. I find that I'm much less likely to do this with paper texts because I don't want to smudge or stain the pages.

I like to make a big pot of tea when I read. Satisfies my mouth without making a mess or racking up the calories. And if it's caffeinated tea, it helps keep me awake!

Yesterday was ok. Got a bit bored at work again and had the urge to eat tasty things. I didn't, but allowed myself a few small tasty things in the evening. I need to find a way of building more fun into my day as I often leave work just feeling very flat. My work isn't enthusing me so after a full day of it I often feel like I need some stimulation from somewhere else. I may try eating lunch with my colleagues to see if that helps.

Yesterday's goals:

- Track all food and drink
- Be in the greenb I had a few treats which put me in the red, but still within losing weight territory
- Not have unplanned snacks/ binge outside the home

- 45+ min lunch break
- Read 1+ career development article
- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions
- Stay positive

- Finish at 5pm
- Pack stuff for running
- Talk to boyfriend in French Only for about a minute, not enough


Today's goals:

- Track all food and drink
- Be in the green
- Not have unplanned snacks/ binge outside the home

- 45+ minute lunch break
- Read 1+ career development email
- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions
- Stay positive

- Finish work by 6pm
- Talk to boyfriend in French
- Create ‘terms of reference’ for ‘couple night’
- Gratitude journal
- Lights off by 11

Hi all. Had a good day yesterday and hoping to keep up the momentum as we move towards the end of the week. This weekend I have my younger daughter’s 9th bday party which is an escape room and art party followed by a sleepover for four of the girls. Between all the stress of organising, making the fancy cake, all that party food and sleep deprivation from screaming excited girls there are loads of upcoming triggers screaming at me. So the plan is to be super prepared, take any and all offers of help with the physical stuff (I’m not up to moving beds and furniture yet so will have to get help) and stay mindful. Being on track is making me happy. And I want to stay that way!!

Wednesday goals recap:

Get kids up and ready ✅
Packs snacks and schoolbags ✅
Walk kids to school - arrive by 8 ✅

You are a brave woman! The thought of group sleepovers scare me! They sound like too much work even if you’re totally healthy. I can’t imagine doing all that while recovering from surgery! Glad you’re being smart about it though. I’m sure your daughter will love it! 🎈🎉🎁

1/21:
No beer ✅
Under calories ✅
Sufferfest and P90 ✅
Water ✅

Today 1/22
Bills
Hang w wife while daughter in dance class
Under calories ( or at least stay in green, but not aiming for big #s today as have had big deficits last 2 days and don’t wanna put self in a hole)
Ride with buddies on night ride ( I love night rides but hate cold so I’m really on the fence about this)
If I ride w/ buddies , one beer max (gonna only pack one and bring seltzer wAter)
Keep up with water



Making progress I think. It’s getting easier to pass up unhealthy foods as I’m keeping healthy fruits in the house. Friday’s coming up. That’s a tough day usually for me as we have family night and usually yummy snacks. Plus usually don’t work out that day. Oh well one day at a time right?
Great job everyone have a fantastic Thursday!

I'll have to be cautious today bc of the lost sleep. I tend to want to snack when sleepy; but I may be able to get in a 20 min. nap today if all goes well. Well, like it or not the day is here. I better get to it, Lol!!

Scale goals

End of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
End of 2019: 196.4
Today: 195.8

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 discussion board 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: Christie auditions 20-21 7 PM. Usher 24 6 PM.
8. House: Crawl space repairs. After that - siding? Or perhaps bathroom floor.
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.
10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter. Community Kitchen. Emerge Georgia training.

Yesterday was a good day I feel like I'm back on target, of course I get back on target just in time to spend a weekend traveling and having fun with my daughter. It's challenging for me, but not impossible. I'll take some workout attire, but I'm not sure time will permit exercising. On an up note there should be a fair amount of walking. Snacks in the car are my downfall... I get really tired when I drive and eating seems the only thing that keeps me awake. I think the drive is only about 3 hours, maybe I'll pack some grapes and baby carrots to munch on. I planned on working a full day today, but now I'm thinking I might leave early get some Peloton time in before I go. I may regret running through my vacation so fast, but I think it might just be ok. Next week I have a half day Thursday and off Friday as well. Next weekend I'm traveling with friends and kids, it will be harder to stay on track.
