This was a HEADACHE to post! MFP won't let me post pics from my phone or tablet gallery. I had to save this picture from my phone to my google drive and then post it from my computer.
But there you have it!6 -
Miss you all! Thoughts and prayers to Joan and Hannah.
Baby boy is here! It was pretty traumatic. I slipped and fell at work, water broke, labored for 48 hours and delivered him at 35 weeks. Some breathing issues but no nicu. Hubby got sick while i was in labor and was masked and gowned for delivery but had to leave immediately following and couldnt come back for 48 hours, my mom came and stayed with us. We spent another 5 days in the hospital due to jaundice. Got realesed Thursday night and readmitted Saturday night for more jaundice issues and got realesed again Sunday night. Been having some serious post partum anxiety. DH is back to work today but weve got help coming over every day thru next Friday planned. His name is Raymond! Hes sweet and sleepy and im getting some sleep at night for the first time in 10 days. Just a quick check in, hope to talk to you all more soon!
Omg yay!!!
I'm so glad he got here okay! What a dramatic entrance!!
Jaundice is an absolute pain!! I hated having to go back to the hosp for it!
If you have any worries or questions about yourself or your little man then feel free to msg me any time! I'm sure plenty of people are throwing advice at you though lol
Well done you

Starting over again and looking for supporters to be with me and I can be there for them. Friend eachother please?
JFT i already did/had:
1. Found 2 recipes I want to make tomorrow I am soooo new to cooking. It is overwhelming but I am trying. I am proud i looked recipes up.
2. Looked for 10 minutes in giant, circling the fruit/veggie aisle 4x looking for zucchini for my recipe. I was totally frustrated because i could not find it! Ended up getting green squash. Come home and text my sister asking if zucchini is only grown a few times a year 😂 tell her I got green squash. Welp. I was educated, green squash IS zucchini. I DID find it, i just didnt know. 😂
3. Ate a meal I cooked for dinner, not fast food. Wooo6 -

I fell asleep on the couch last night and didn’t get my goals updated or posted. I overate yesterday, and didn’t log everything or do my journal due to sleeping. I just wasn’t feeling well.

@TerriRichardson112 - could I get a shamrock for the 22nd and 25th please.

Hello lovely people,
I felt less anxious today. I think all of the excitement around this new job opportunity got me caught up in thinking about all the possibilities. I am feeling more level-headed, which is good but I'm also still very conflicted. I am hoping that setting up an interview will help clarify things. Sorry for going on so much about this, but taking this new job would change almost everything about my life, I'm just not sure if it would all even out for good or for bad. Anyway, we had a pizza party at work, and I was able to plan around it and still stay in the green! Super proud. Believe me I was eyeing that third slice of pepperoni!
@kuhl50 Sorry to hear about the health problems you are struggling with. Trust yourself to know when something is off and ask for more testing. Hope you get answers soon!
@bookmeister86 Congrats on all those smileys! I hope pancake day was awesome!
@terririchardson112 Add a shamrock for today (25) please! I'm back on track!
@beachwalker99 Let's do this! I really like your idea of setting a reminder alarm an hour before. I may steal that...
@HEGoddard0928 I love vision boards and yours looks so amazing!!! I did mine a few years ago so it probably needs updating. Yours has definitely inspired me. Awesome job!

Just starting out. I've lost 10lb since December and I want to lose 50 or so more. Just installed the App yesterday and I'm committing myself to logging everything, good and bad. Two good days so far so not a terrible start. I'm hoping to be half way to goal by my 35th bday.8

Yesterday was rather frustrating at work and I ended up eating an unplanned mini cupcake and a cookie. I was really in the mood to go out and have a real binge - I was having a real flap. But then I stopped myself, remembering that I had lots of pancakes to look forward to.
Pancake day then actually went pretty well. We managed to pretty much log all the calories and yes I went over maintenance, but not by as much as I would have done had I just acted as normal and eaten loads of pancakes with uncontrolled topping sizes. So overall I'm pleased with that. It's the first time ever I've portion controlled on pancake day and you know what, it was actually quite good. I would have liked a bit more cheese on my savoury pancakes, but actually I found the sweet pancakes tasted better with a small amount of sugar as I could then taste the other flavours better! Who knew that portion control could actually lead to MORE satisfaction....
Yesterday's goals:
- Track all food and drink
- Eat slowly and moderate eating
- Not have unplanned snacks/ binge outside the home
- 30 min lunch break
- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions
- Positive affirmations
- Finish work at 5.30
- Talk to boyfriend in FrenchForgot
- Proper quality time - follow date night rules
- Gratitude journal
- Lights off by 11
Today should be a shamrock today, hopefully with a bit of a deficit as well. I'm running to work this morning which burns about 350. It's very cold this morning (nearly freezing) but it's worth it to get some calories burnt, particularly as the endorphins it gives me helps my sanity when work is frustrating!
Today's goals:
- Track all food and drink
- Be in the green with a deficit
- Not have unplanned snacks/ binge outside the home
- 45+ min lunch break
- Go for a walk at lunch
- (If time) read relationship article
- Take regular ‘breathe/ reframe’ breaks at work to manage emotions
- Positive affirmations
- Finish by 6pm
- Talk to boyfriend in French
- French book
- Make lunch for tomorrow
- Finances
- Gratitude journal
- Lights off by 11
Positive thought: It is now light when I leave work! (When I leave a little earlier)6 -
Wednesday 26 February
I’ve completed my logging from yesterday and was just in the green but it was only because I did my exercise! @terririchards please can you give me a ☘️for yesterday.
Today I will:
Log
Stay in the green
5 fruit and veg
Water
Fitbit exercise goals
Weigh less than last Wednesday 😊5 -
@TerriRichardson112 - a ☘️ for the 25th, please
TUESDAY:
- Track every bite🟢
- Stay green🟢
- Go for a walk🟢
- Laundry🟢
- Dishes🟢
- Start new yearbook project🟢
- Get the forms and start doing taxes🟡 got the forms, but didn’t start it yet.
- Update budget for end of month🔴
- Rehearsal tonight🟢
I kind of had to force myself to go out for my walk yesterday, but I’m glad I did. It kept me in the green!
JFT WEDNESDAY:
- Track every bite
- Stay green
- Go for a walk/or exercise video
- Dishes
- Substitute
- Singing for 2 masses
- Juggle the kids around 3 after school activities
Today is Ash Wednesday and I’ll be singing for a couple of masses. Since you’re not supposed to have meat today, it really effects my diet. Tonight my dinner is pasta based (and usually involves chips)! It’s going to be a real challenge to stay in the green. Especially since I doubt I’ll have time for a walk.3 -
JFT Tuesday

2. Gym👍
3. Drink 150oz water👍

Yesterday was a mixed bag. Stayed way in the green. Got bills paid, washed the car, did some important trip prep stuff. Ended up doing a way harder training ride last night. Possibly the hardest hour I’ve put in on the bike in 6 months. So many times I wanted to stop but ended up breaking the last 12 minutes into 30 seconds at a time and pretty proud to have finished it.. as mentally it almost broke me.
The trade off was I was totally spent after and had no gas left. Managed 7 pull ups, was shooting for 10 and bagged pushups all together.
Packing tonight for red eye flight in am to Vermont.
Little bummed that I’ll be off the bike for next 6 days but have had a hard 8 week training block and really probably need to change things up. My buddy reminded me in 5 years I won’t remember what my watts/kg were on the bike right now but I will remember this ski trip w my father in law and daughter.
Goals for today
#stay green
#log calories
#no booze... the stress has gotten me thinking that bourbon would be tasty which would be fine but I tend to make stupid diet decisions after,.
#finish packing
#tidy house ( this will be a family affair and I’m sure my wife is gonna be a total stress ball tonight)
Probably pick up subs or something easy for dinner. I think I’m in mood for eggs and rice. Know it sounds weird but I really like it plus it’s filling and low calorie6 -
