12/29:
on-plan:
exercise: strength...not a good workout. I did not have a lot of energy yesterday. Blech. Felt like molasses. Def gross with no gas in the tank. But I also met my Non-sedentary step goal using a walking vid. Hoping for more energy today.1 -

Can I just take a moment to wish everyone in my new and honestly quite brilliant MFP family (if I may be so bold) a Happy New Year.
Not posting for a couple of days and taking some much needed days of DVD/Blu-ray watching and a rare chance to have downtime before the tennis season starts and before I embark on a number of projects to keep myself going now that I am a 51y0 unemployed sports journo thanks to COVID.
I won't let this beat me and I have a buffer in place while I look for some decent part time work and a couple of projects to occupy my mind.
I will see you all on the other side and... 10st and below - I AM COMING FOR YA IN 2021!5 -

Today I did 80 mins on the treadmill. I travelled to Cinci to spend the day visiting my sister. I did 20 mins before I left this morning, and then another 60 mins tonight when I got home. I did a couple of sessions of "jogging in place" at her house, which she thought that I was cuckoo! Lol. She has bipolar disorder as well as agoraphobia (fear of leaving her own home) and seriously RARELY ever leaves her house because of anxiety and panic attacks. She has her groceries delivered and she won't even go for a walk down her quiet residential street. I try to make the 2 hour drive (one way) 3-4 times per year to go visit her and to cut and/or color her hair. She also loves that I'm losing weight because I've been giving her all of my 2X size clothing! She's my only sister and exactly 1 year younger than me.3 -
Superb day to end the year on. Food was super on point - nutrient dense, low cal (and carb), and super filling. Over 11,000 steps, with two shorter walks and then a longer one this evening because I was so stuffed after dinner
AND, after thinking it wasn't going to happen, again, due to water weight, again, made my weight loss goal of 3kg for the month, weighing in at 82kg on the nose this morning
Happy New Year, everyone. I sincerely hope it's a whole lot better for those of you in the COVID zones.1 -
12/30:
On-plan:
Exercise: Good leg-stretching walk. 12k steps for the day.
I need to make myself to do strength again. Hopefully I won't struggle as much as last time. I don't know why I keep dreading strength days so much anymore. I guess I'm bored and my stress and being quite antsy from the situation I'm in (perpetual quarantine thanks to community spread of COVID being so absolutely out of control here) bleeds over. Don't ever let anyone tell you patience is a virtue. It's a skill, plain and simple. And mine's been practiced a lot this year.1 -
Good food day, great exercise day yesterday. Not feeling like doing what I had planned to do today, but working on it!
I totally get the stress thing, baconslave. I also feel like I'm in perpetual covid hell.2 -

Worked 135 mins giving massages today, but other than that it was a REST day. I was just beat today.
HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone! I hope you all have a happy, healthy, safe new year!2 -
Just checking in as I stopped logging right before Christmas. I have been off work and decided to enjoy the time. I kept up with lots of movement and exercise while eating like a crazy person. It did make me realize having more carbs gives me a headache. I’ll step on the scale Monday morning to see the result of my food orgy and get back to work shedding the weight I’m sure I’ve gained. See you in the January threads and happy new year!1
