Yesterday was a slightly trying day. I supposedly started my secondment but I didn't have my laptop so I couldn't access any of the drives or emails or chat function so felt a bit out of it at home. The boyfriend was at work also so I felt a bit isolated. Also I couldn't go out for a walk either because I was waiting in for the laptop to be delivered and didn't want to miss it. So I got a bit of cabin fever as well.
However managed to stay pretty much on plan and also to avoid alcohol in the evening despite the trying day. Instead of alcohol, I had a nice long walk after work - which was lovely due to early autumn leaves - had a bath and also distracted myself with a decluttering/ fixing project. Oh and I watched two episodes of Downton Abbey, that was a nice treat
My laptop is now here and I'm getting set up on it at 10, so hopefully today will be a better day. Hope it's a good day for everyone else!
So yesterday's goals:bookmeister86 wrote: »- Log everything I eat
- Be in the green
Just about, was 80 over due to an unplanned snack waiting for boyfriend to get home. We now have no snacks left in the house (pretty much) so shouldn't do that again today...
- Hit my step goal
- No alcohol
Today's goals:
- Log everything I eat
- Be in the green
- Drink 5 big mugs of water
- Hit my step goal
- No alcohol
@Snowflake1968 Yes the way house selling/ buying works here is, frankly, just stupid. I'm not sure they have this stupid 'chain' situation in any, or many, other countries. It makes house buying one of the most stressful things you can do! I'm trying not to get too stressed though and just be pragmatic about the whole thing - it helps that I want to move and don't need to move.4 -

JFT Monday 11th October
Log everything yes
Stay in the green yes, in the green!
Back exercises only a few, must do better
Foot exercises yes
No snacks none, although I really wanted to
Walk (this has fallen by the wayside a bit) no walk, but did mow the lawn
Iron all that laundry yes
Garden yes
Pleased with how I did yesterday, although I was very tired. Really wanted a snack a couple of times but resisted. In the afternoon I planted a few small plants and some tulip bulbs, then cut the grass. I had to stop before I was finished as I felt so shaky and weak. Really weird, my arm felt weak all evening. My old lawnmower has a vibration right up into my hands but I don't think that would cause me to feel bad. Felt like I needed food so quickly had left over baked beans on toast. Will finish grass later in the week. The easy meal meant I stayed in the green, really pleased to manage this on "day 1".
JFT Tuesday 12th October
Log everything
Stay in the green
Back exercises
Foot exercises
No snacks
Walk
Paperwork/Mum's bills
Grocery shopping/see if I can get petrol/compost/bird feed
@bookmeister86 I feel for you getting stuck with your house purchase. No wonder it's so stressful when no-one knows when things will happen. I've only bought in England once and luckily there was no chain. I suggest moving to Scotland, it's much easier up here lol. My house purchase last year was the easiest ever, price and details agreed over coffee with the seller. We shook on it, kept in touch, and it all went without a hitch. I do appreciate that I was very very lucky though.
Hopefully your purchase will start moving soon. If not, they always say that if the first falls through, you'll find something even better!

Tuesday... Still like Monday junior, but I'm in a better mood. Probably because the scale moved in the right direction today. YAY! It's only a pound, but I'll take it. Today, I'm hoping to get out of work early enough to catch the club ride this evening. With shorter days they moved the start time to 5:00pm which cuts it close for me. Luckily I have flex time and so with the extra hours I worked yesterday I can go early as long as my meetings don't run long or there isn't some crisis... Hubby is planning on a run, the gym & a late yoga class, but offered to come ride with me. Honestly I think I'd rather go without him for this, like I used to.

JFT T 10/12 ~ planned rest day (rainy day)
1) Prelog / net cals zero / 14c water
2) Organize GA-C/V YE paperwork (we still print everything = GAH!), set up folders & submit for review / update Project Status Review tab / print & update PA-E&T ethics & laws sections / check PA-E&T admin & draft then submit for 2nd review / 12:00 Facebook Live / 1:00 - 2:30 req'd webinar / webinar summary form for part 1
3) Grocery shop after work / balance bank accts / schedule cc pmt / update budget s/s / another ta-da?
4) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 5:40 alarm (walk dog before work)
Thanks for the birthday wishes, JFT peeps! I stepped on the scale this a.m. to check damage from bday/long weekend (ate brunch out, ordered takeout for dinner & drank adult beverages). Not overly surprised to see gain of several pounds (again). If I eat better this week, thinking that should drop off by next weigh-in ("officially" on Sat.).
Since yesterday was Columbus Day holiday in the U.S., hubby had off work but I didn't. So I decided to burn a PTO day and stay home too. Wonderful to sleep in, take dog for long walk, and spend more time with hubby. Because temps have been abnormally warm, in the afternoon I decided to take advantage and scrub gunk off patio chairs before we store them for winter. Once I got started, hubby came outside and did half, even though it started to rain lightly. I love him, but sometimes I feel like I have to light a firecracker under him to get him started on some chores. He works with me, but I *always* seem to be the starter or nothing gets done. Wish it were the other way around sometimes.
2021 Goals:1) Weight 150#Word for 2021: Gratitude ~ be mindful of & appreciate my many blessings
2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability. Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I peek occasionally other days. My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale.
4) Take measurements & log on MFP every month end ~ remember this year! ~ 1.31.21 ~ 2.28.21 ~ 4.3.21 ~ 4.30.21 not pretty ~ skipped 5.31.21 & 6.30.21 ~ 7.31.21 accountable ~ 9.1.21 horrible after vacation but recorded ~ 9.30.21 small improvements yay
5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking but include weights/circuit & other x-training
6) Participate in race or challenge events even if virtual ~ started MapMyWalk You Vs. Year 1021K on Jan. 1 / virtual 50 Mile Frenzy 11.27.20 - 1.15.21 (replaced Frenzy on the Fox for Jan. 2021) 50.37 miles 12.17.20 and completed 97.44 miles total / Tour de Northeast WI virtual challenge: cover distance from Oshkosh to Gills Rock (139 miles) 1.1.21 - 3.31.21 ~ completed distance on 3.21.21 / 30/45 Build to Bellin virtual challenge 30 min. activity for total of 1,350 min. in 45 days 3.1.21 - 4.15.21 = 146 out of 339 in 34:00:42 / Hope 2021 Face Mask virtual 5K (benefits No Kid Hungry) anytime 5.11.21 in 58:04 / 100 Miles in May virtual challenge ~ 134.68 miles would've been more if I hadn't sluffed off on dog walks one week / Bellin (virtual) 10K on 6.19.21 after thunderstorm in 1:45:49 ave. pace 17:02 per mile / Titletown Wellness Shoreline Challenge: virtual distance from Gills Rock to Pleasant Prairie (232 miles) as many times as possible 6.12.21 - 11.26.21 / Packers 5K IN PERSON 7.24.21 48:36 ave. pace 15:39 / Bellin Women's Pink Pumpkin 5K IN PERSON 10.2.21 47:34 ave. pace 15:19 second half pace 14:48
7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last year that should be repeated
8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ had this goal in 2020 and how ironic
9) Declutter bedroom, home office and basement ~ made good progress in 2020 & want to keep it up3 -
Weekly Weigh-In = When I'm active I eat back calories. My weaknesses: I love food... my sweet tooth, especially chocolate... portion control... FOMO (Fear of Missing Out).

@cschmitz110515 I like your "It's not a diet..." statement.
I'm going to talk to a French correspondent in Alsace this morning and then I have to visit a dermatologist to check a few weird spots on my skin. This will be my first visit to him.
Hour commitment - Had coffee stuff, now I won't eat again until after 12 pm.

JFT Tuesday 12th October
Log everything everything until some crisps in the evening
Stay in the green I was, until the crisps. Around 100 - 150 calories over
Back exercises only a few, MUST do better
Foot exercises yes
No snacks just the crisps
Walk Was out about hour and a half with grandson and dog, to the park. Logged half an hour of that
Paperwork/Mum's bills no
Grocery shopping/see if I can get petrol/compost/bird feed yes x4
Did well yesterday until I decided to have a drink and eat crisps in the evening. I don't know what it is with crisps at the moment (well, this whole year!). I didn't eat crisps for years, I had one flavour I really liked but stopped eating them. Why did I start again after years not having them? I'm beginning to suspect they are not good for me, I was up in the night with a bad gut again. I will not buy any more.
JFT Wednesday 13th October
Log everything
Stay in the green
Back exercises
Foot exercises
No snacks
Walk
Gardening
Paperwork/Mum's bills
I'm having family for evening meal today, will try to pre-log it. The only way I will stay in the green is to miss breakfast, I'm not enjoying this!

Have an awesome day! Much love y'all!
Yesterday was a good but challenging day. I have a new position at work and the learning curve is steep, but I'm handling that well. Doing well with my calories during the day, but didn't get enough calories in the evening after my ride.
My ride, wow that was a disaster, but I completed it. I'm proud of myself for coming back from the panic attack and finishing. I really struggled. The people with me were very kind, but it was embarrassing to break down like that mid ride. I wanted to turn and go back, but they wouldn't let me go solo, and I didn't want to ruin their ride, so I went on. Still crying and not breathing well at first, but I eventually settled and things were ok. I need to get over the anxiety of riding hills. I'm so afraid of failing that I wig out. I used to be a great climber, but that was like 75 pounds ago and gravity is not your friend on the bike. I guess the only way yo get better is to keep losing and keep riding.
Today was another early day at work with an international call at 7:00am, so I was in by 6:00. This would be great because it means I could technically leave at 2:30, but with my new work load, that isn't happening. Hopefully as I get more comfortable with the job, things will flow better. If I actually get out by 3:30, I'm probably going to go ride, but by myself on a bike path rather than the rolling hills of WV.
JFT Wednesday
- Work by 6:00

Yesterday evening I had a bit of misadventure. Did my quick shopping trip to grocery store on my way home from work, loaded purchases into car trunk & shut, then reached for my keys in pocket. Oops, not there, checked all my pockets, then my small purse, even looked in shopping cart and around the car. Nope. Panicked for a minute, then realized keys must be in trunk of my locked car. Returned cart to corral & contacted AAA for lock-out service since hubby was at work across the city. Thank heavens hubby adamantly signed me up, first time in 17 years I had to use.
Then I stood/sat at edge of parking lot waiting by my car. Decided instead of being upset and/or pissed at myself, be grateful. I had a service coming; Tues. evening better than other busier times for service; it was still warm out for time of year; cloudy but not raining on me; didn't have anything melting in trunk of car; the pets would survive until I got home. Just over 30 min. later the technician called to verify my location & arrived in 2 minutes. Very nice man, evaluated the situation, chatted about calls he frequently gets when the Green Bay Packers are playing a home game. Zip, boom, bang, door open & alarm blaring. I popped trunk open & there were my keys. Turned off alarm & gave technician a hug (he didn't mind).
Life could be worse. Technician & I chatted a bit more, about cars and his kids. Learned he has two autistic kids, one of them 13yo girl with lots of challenges. Yet he was such an upbeat, nice guy. Told him I would keep him & family in my prayers. He appreciated that. Reminds me that others can be challenged in ways I never see, and to always be kind.
2021 Goals:1) Weight 150#Word for 2021: Gratitude ~ be mindful of & appreciate my many blessings
2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability. Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I peek occasionally other days. My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale.
4) Take measurements & log on MFP every month end ~ remember this year! ~ 1.31.21 ~ 2.28.21 ~ 4.3.21 ~ 4.30.21 not pretty ~ skipped 5.31.21 & 6.30.21 ~ 7.31.21 accountable ~ 9.1.21 horrible after vacation but recorded ~ 9.30.21 small improvements yay
5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking but include weights/circuit & other x-training
6) Participate in race or challenge events even if virtual ~ started MapMyWalk You Vs.

7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last year that should be repeated
8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ had this goal in 2020 and how ironic
9) Declutter bedroom, home office and basement ~ made good progress in 2020 & want to keep it up4 -
