Hi all, haven't been around. Mostly because of packing and change in our internet plans (now on a restricted diet!). Thanks for everybody that tried to say hello!
I still haven't moved yet but been busy packing. I can't log now either, no time or way to measure stuff, (and it takes forever just to find a few ingredients in the boxes). But I'm still trying to guesstimate calories and might be able to make room to start exercising again tomorrow. We'll see. Only a few weeks left! I need to get fit like my own version of Rocky so that loading the truck won't take forever and won't be too grueling.
@PackerFanInGB Thanks for your message! I almost missed it but somebody tagged me right before you so I caught it ; ) I'm doing alright thank you. We move the last week of March, and prayers are appreciated as it will be about a week-long trek. We've been packing and spackling and getting ready so that the last week won't be as hectic. There's so much to plan, prepare, and check on before we arrive. We're not headed to a house/apt so there's more to prepare, research, etc. Yes, I'm excited and nervous. I think the stress will go down when (God willing) we close the truck door with room to spare (they do not give you the same dimensions inside as advertised on uhaul)...and then when we drop off the truck we'll breath a sigh of relief.
@littleblackskirt Hello! Thanks for your tag! I mostly haven't been on because of packing and the change in our internet, which has given limited access and had messed up the MFP platform for me anyways the past few weeks.
@MLHC1 Nice idea about posting the year - I joined October 2021
@more_freggies76 I thought about your self-control a few times to help me say "not today" to various food items, or "not until this time".5 -
@MrsHermit I'm excited for you! You are starting a new chapter in your life It's now 2 years since I moved to my "new" house, I still love it here. My internet is very slow, but at least I have it.littleblackskirt wrote: »
JFT Saturday
I will be patient I was
I will not have takeaway food none, I cooked tea
Ended up with extra visitors, so excited children, dog etc. No work done at all. It was actually nice seeing them all playing together. A good day, but very bad for calories!
Sunday will be more of the same.
JFT Sunday
I will be patient
I will not have takeaway food
I WILL do the executors tasks on my lists
It's 8.45am and the family have just arrived. I got up early to do the tasks, but I've wasted the time having a relaxing breakfast. Should have moved faster!
Have a great Sunday everyone.2 -

Well, I worked 10 hours today (overtime) and now I need to get to work on finishing some goals! Am happy to have been given permission to get comp time instead of pay for some of my overtime...if I work 26.67 hours during OT I can get 40 hours off...not bad! Maybe I will get a vacation some day. I have three tentatively planned this year and if even one happens I will be thrilled.

I had a lovely Sunday. Persuaded son to take grandson for a walk so I could do things in peace, but it was so nice and sunny I went with them! Lovely walk in the nature reserve, grandson saw a squirrel for the first time. Then got my tasks completed in the afternoon. It was so sunny that we were able to sit in the garden for the first time (still with coats and hats on!)
Back to wind and rain today.

Yesterday was good. I had a heavy lunch, but no dinner. I stayed within calories, but my weight is up. Mostly sodium would be my guess also PMS not a good weight combo. As long as I can explain it, I don’t get too worried about a pound up. Of course, it means I show only a loss of 2 pounds. That’sa bit disappointing, but I didn’t gain so that is a win.
Meetings all day today, then going to the HS to paint sets. Think I’ll just take my own supplies this time rather than hoping they will actually be prepared. I love my artsy friends, but logistics is not their strong suit.

@Bex953172 - Four is such a fun age! Happy (belated) Birthday to your beautiful girl! I hope she enjoyed her special day
@MrsHermit - It sounds like you're getting a lot done to prepare for the move. Packing the truck will certainly be a workout! Hope it goes smoothly.pridesabtch wrote: »
Weight is steadily but slowly moving again, for which I'm thankful. When I exercise, I tend to eat better. When I weigh-in daily I am definitely more conscious of what I'm consuming. It's good until I get obsessive, then I need to step back a bit. This is where I tend to falter. If x amount of exercise and y amount of food = weight loss, then more exercise and less food will = more weight loss. Though this is technically true, it isn't sustainable or necessarily healthy. Take tonight for instance, I'd like to go out to dinner with hubby since our daughter will be out of town, but I'm anxious about eating out because it will cause at minimum a bump on the scale. I know it won't even be real weight gain, but I can let it mess with my mind. I think a good plan for me is to log food, try to stay within maintenance, and not weigh for a few days until the sodium and bloat go away. Hopefully that will keep me from getting discouraged. Of course sometimes this back fires and I go off the rails because I'm not holding myself accountable. Sigh...
I've struggled with this as well. I can be a bit of a control freak, so while daily weigh-ins kept me accountable and helped me lose weight in the past, they also became a source of stress, affecting my behavior and attitude in ways I didn't like. Things that had been sources of pleasure - eating out or going to a party - were becoming stressful. I just spent too much time thinking about what I could and would eat. And on the exercise front, my husband joked about my subservience to my Fitbit. When the pandemic hit, I just couldn't manage the extra strain on my mental health. I took a "break" that stretched out over a year and a half - and gained almost all of the weight back. It took a health crisis to get me back on track.
I want to be in control of my weight loss plan, not feel like it controls me. This time around, I decided not to weigh every day and to be more relaxed about logging. When I started back on MFP last fall, I weighed in once or twice a week, but lately I've found myself stepping on the scale more often. That's worrying. I want to find a healthy balance between accountability and enjoying life.
I think your plan to take a couple of days for your weight to settle before weighing is a good one. You seem to be making great progress and having fun getting back on the bike. I'm certainly no expert, but I think stepping back a bit when we see ourselves starting to obsess is a healthy response.3 -
Took the weekend off from posting goals. With the pressure off, I still logged and got some exercise in, a good sign that those basic goals have become habits.

Hi all my JFTers! Sorry I fell off the face of the earth. JK but sort of felt that way. I realized my last JFT post was one week ago. Too busy to post last Tues. but was a fun day for me. Spent the a.m. working from home then in the afternoon hubby and I went to the $5 movies to see Death on the Nile (I've read many Agatha Christie books). Our first movie in a theatre in over two years!
That evening I started feeling extremely tired and went to bed early. Next three days I spent laying around sick, extreme fatigue & headaches & absolutely no appetite. Even though fully vaxed, had my first ever Covid test just to be sure = it was negative. Have been very sedentary, didn't have even 2,000 Fitbit steps for three straight days, and no PT exercises. At least my knees have been very rested, so that's been good. Since Sat. I've slowly been regaining normality and today worked from home a little. Hopefully tomorrow I go back to the office and survive a full day haha.
I will post JFT tomorrow. Just remembered it's month end and I need to take measurements in the morning.5 -

1) Take monthly measurements (done) & log on MFP
2) Move hourly but take elevator when necessary
3) Get back to logging food / finish leftover root veggie beef stew for lunch / not sure about supper ~ now that I'm feeling better, I'm sure hubby will expect me to figure it out
/ net calories <300 red / 96 oz. water
4) EHN update (Teams) 9:00 / Facebook Live video / BC-CC testing ~ contact Jenni / prep PRO, PAR & HW for current week / prep webinar summary form for Thurs / keep up with emails
5) PT exercises after work / prep tax return checklist & organize docs / declutter 15 min. / another ta-da?
6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work)
Back in the office today, feeling mostly normal. Happy to have some energy. Had wonderful in-person chat this morning with my former office-mate (from pre-pandemic days) and very surprised & disappointed to learn she has tendered her resignation. I will miss her.About me: CarmelaWord for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship
Height 5'4"
64 yrs old
Reside in Green Bay, WI, USA
2022 Goals: mainly updates from the last two years
1) Weight 150#
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 track daily on a separate app (for the visual). 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 ~- 1.31.22 forgot to measure & log (DDS 8:20, quick stops at bread store & grocery essentials, then to mom & dad's for her bday)
- 3.1.22 (still recovering from flu 2.23-2.25)
6) Participate in race or challenge events hopefully fewer virtual this year ~- started MapMyWalk app You Vs. the Year 1,022km challenge on Jan. 1
- Frenzy on the Fox (River Trail) 5K on 1.21.22 ~ untimed event, per MapMyWalk 53.47 & ave. pace 16:30, frigid this year with wind chill at zero
- registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.5.22 ~ medico nixed race b/c inflammation in knee due to overuse & my arthritis = sad me but good for my knee
- will register for Bellin 10K on 6.11.22 ~ first time in person since 2019
- will register for Packers 5K when July details announced
- will register for Bellin Women's Pink Pumpkin 5K when Oct. details announced
- will register for Run for the Hill of It (trail) 5K when Oct. details announced
- watch for other events to add
8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ keeping this goal as well
9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, former work from home space (a/k/a dining room) and basement3 -

Hi friends! It's going to get up to 40 degrees in Wisconsin today. My focus for March is going to be Intentional Activity. I am going to get some sort of intentional activity every day, no exceptions, even if I can only do 5 minutes before my knees scream. I was listening to a podcast and she said "We cannot wait until we FEEL like doing something, because we will never FEEL like doing it." That really hit me, because I have been procrastinating exercising because "I just don't feel like it today". Well, realistically, since I don't generally enjoy it, I probably won't ever feel like it! So, I just need to do it. I have found that as soon as I start walking, my walk around the block turns into another block and another block...because once I'm out there, I enjoy it (as long as it's not so cold that my face hurts). So anyway, I just wanted to post it on here for accountability.
I hope everyone is doing well! I haven't gotten caught up yet, but will try to do a bit at a time over this week. HUGS! xxoo :flowerforyou:

Overate a lot on candy today at lunch. I allowed sweets today, but ate way too much. Oh well, that still happens once in a long while.
Hour commitment - Now I won't eat again until after 5 pm. No more desserts today. Can still have my dose of metamusal.
