Do you know when she's back from snowboarding?

Hi hi fellow motivated/ing individuals! Just discovered this awesome thread and am pumped to join in for some much-needed accountability. Let’s crush these goals!

JFT March 9:
1. >= 100g protein
2. >= 1510 cal
3. 2x stretch sessions
4. Test run 1 mile (no more)
5. Ice -> heat my shin 2x

I’m an amateur triathlete who started her first full-time job last September — and I’ve been figuring out how to build a healthy & balanced lifestyle in this new environment. I let myself go up several pounds in favor of focusing on other things that are important to me, but I can’t wait to kill the shred game again and be amazed my physique.

Thanks for the support

beachwalker99

Good morning all! Last week before Spring Break and it'll be a busy one wrapping up some work and prepping for my trip. Didn't get much done over the weekend, but I did get outdoors and spent some time relaxing with family. I even got to bed early last night despite the time change.

Started setting goals today and then had some of them derailed by the pool guy showing up to pressure test the system. DH set up the appointment but forgot to send me the details. Fortunately, I was home to turn on the water line to the outdoor spigot. No leak in the underground line (very good news) but we'll have to wait until we open the pool in May to see why we see why the water level seems to be dropping faster than normal.

So no gym. Missed my calorie goals this weekend, but stayed around maintenance, so the damage shouldnn't be too bad. Maybe I can squeeze in a walk after class today.

JFT Goals for Monday, March 9, 2020
• Complete food log and maintain a calorie deficit
• Walk outdoors 30+ min
• Dog to vet
• Grading!!!
• LMS updates
• Online course HW
• Plants (bulbs in porch planters)
• Start gathering items to pack

And of course, wind down and get to bed on time!

Do you know when she's back from snowboarding?

I think she's on vacation all this week. Pretty sure she's not snowboarding. A snowbird is a northerner spending time in a southern, warmer area during winter.

HEGoddard0928

@Bex953172 @cschmitz110515 That made me laugh so hard! I guess snowbirding isnt a thing in the UK! Thank you for the wonderful laugh! Lol

@mytime6630 I hope you and hubby are doing alright. Have there been any symptoms popping up due to the hormone therapy?

@TerriRichardson112 Shamrock me, please (3/8/20)!

I'm currently sitting out in the sun sweating a bit. Lol. It feels amazing! The temperature for today is supposed to reach 70! In the middle of March! In the Mid-Atlantic! What the heck? I WILL not complain though! I have all the windows open in my house to get some nice cross breezes and fresh air. I walked the length of my driveway for a bit of exercise and I think I might do it again in a little while. It's just waaaay too nice to spend the day inside. I think Spring has come early this year. It's not supposed to get belorw 50 degrees the next two weeks. And a few of those days will be in the 60's. So I think I might be spending more time outside.

I got a text message this morning from one of the other Paras in my class asking for my address. She said that they were sending me a little something. I can't wait to see what it is! I miss my students so much! I miss my job so much! Lol.

Tomorrow is Matt's birthday. I have to run to the store to pick him up a few things. I completely forgot about that so I guess I should probably get up and do that now.

So on to some goals,

JFT, 3/9/20

- Log all my food

- Mini goals
- go to store
- wrap Matt's presents

Please check that I haven’t missed any shamrocks.

Just to clarify things, being in the green means being under or at your calorie goal for the day. If you are under goal, you get a green figure, hence ‘in the green’. You decide your own calorie goal.

@jeschepp Thanks. The test will be tomorrow. I got as much as I could done for our big event Sunday, while my supervisor was still in the building. I will pass on as much of the day to day work to the third in our department while I continue event prep. I expect push back. Luckily for me, I'm feeling stubborn this week.

Well I didn’t make all the goals but I made some and I worked on it so that’s a start.

It was so nice that there was daylight until almost 8. Sucked that it was dark getting up again, but that will change in another week or two. This time change energizes me. I’m just waiting for warmer weather then I’m going to get out walking!

Yesterday was a pretty bad day. Got pretty stressed out by work and as such forgot to eat breakfast???? This never happens. As such, couldn't go to the gym at lunch (didn't think attempting to burn 600 calories on 0 calories was a great idea) but instead went for a calming walk on the canal. I then did a small workout in the evening.

My stress meant that all my plans for the evening went out for the window a bit as I decided to prioritise self care - I had a bath and watched some funny shows (and had some wine). Ended up in the green with a small deficit.

Today will be very busy, I am in meetings back to back from 9.30 till 6. But hopefully it will be busy rather than stressful. The thing with yesterday was, because it was my only empty day (with the other days having lots of meetings), I felt under pressure to get a lot done and when it wasn't working out as planned I felt rather overwhelmed. Today, I know I can't do anything as I'm in meetings, so I just have to sit through them

Yesterday's goals:

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

- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions I did one
- Positive affirmations Forgot about this

- Finish work by 7pm
- Quality time (no phones)
- Talk to boyfriend in French
- French book
- Pick up godson present
- Laundry
- Gratitude journal
- Lights off by 11


Today's goals

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

- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions
- Positive affirmations

- Finish work at 6pm
- Pack stuff for running

Morning all have only been on this thread for a few days but love reading the posts, did chuckle at the snowboard/snowbird. There are one or two words that have different meaning uk side of the pond 😜 love the differences. Jumped on the scales this morning and I’m down. Not s lot but going in the right direction.

Goal to lose 2lb this week
Walk more
Drink more water and green tea
No coffee

I didn’t get round to posting yesterday but I was in the green. @TerriRichardson112 please can I have a shamrock for the 7th and 8th. The ☘️ challenge is continuing to help me and, although I’m close to maintenance most days, the scales are creeping downwards. Thank you

Goals for today

Log had to guess as I ate out so I tried to pick the higher calorie generic items most akin to the food I ate
Stay in the green think I just scrapped in if I include some exercise calories (I don’t normally)
5 fruit and veg
Water
Fitbit exercise goals

A bit of a mixed day, I skipped lunch knowing I was likely to have a high calorie evening meal and did more exercise and I think this was enough to keep me in the green.

==============================
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. Book 1: The Illusionists - Rosie Thomas ✅
3. Book 2: Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine, Gail Honeyman✅
4. Book 3: Nothern Lights Ch 8
5. 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.
6. 07 Jan: One bag already full and ready to go to the charity shop
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. 14 Jan: Craft Group: working on patchwork project from last Tues.

Scale goals

End of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
End of 2019: 196.4
End of January: 194.6
End of February: 196.2
Today: 198.4

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: 1984.
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.
11. Family: Find cousin photos.

WFTY: Progress. I am SO tired. And my weight is way up. And I'm tired. And my last class yesterday did horribly with their conversation. They tried, bless them, to fake their way through it, but they just did NOT remember much of ANYTHING that they had supposedly studied the previous week.
