    Recap T 3/1 ~ keeping things simple
    1) Take monthly measurements & log on MFP :smiley:
    2) Move hourly but take elevator when necessary :) 4.4K 8/14 & 10 floors
    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 :p fast food for supper & I was the instigation... we don't eat much fast food anymore, but I didn't want to do any food prep, and tasted so good; not enough water only 64 oz.
    4) EHN update (Teams) 9:00 / Facebook Live video / BC-CC testing ~ contact Jenni no time, lots of brainstorming & other stuff / prep PRO, PAR & HW for current week / prep webinar summary form for Thurs forgot / keep up with emails = 4/6
    5) PT exercises after work / prep tax return checklist & organize docs / declutter 15 min. / another ta-da? :# totally exhausted, fell asleep on couch then dragged myself to bed
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work)

    JFT W 3/2 ~ Ash Wednesday
    1) PT exercises before work :smiley: happy to complete all reps & all sets
    2) Move hourly
    3) Net calories zero / 96 oz. water
    4) BC-CC testing ~ contact Jenni / prep webinar summary form for Thurs / emails
    5) Church service 7:00 / prep grocery list / prep tax return checklist & organize docs / declutter 15 min. / other ta-da?
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work)

    Back in the office yesterday, felt fine in morning, but no energy during afternoon. That what happens to me after the flu, it takes me a bit to regain full energy. Each day will be better.

    About me: Carmela
    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)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking dog, treadmill in winter, but include weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
    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
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last two years to be continued
    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 basement
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    • Make 24 Hour Plan :)
    • Do 24 Hour Assessment for yesterday :)
    • Log into MFP and post my JFT goals :)
    • Drink 4 full MSQC tumblers of water by 7 PM :(
    • Go to mom's for AQ video :( Conflict in schedule
    • Walk with Miss Maddie :) Got to the park and back, so that was awesome!
    • 30 min declutter in sewing room :(

    • Cook dinner - Brats, baked beans, chips or oven fries. :( Spaghetti & Meatballs leftovers
    • Log all food and close Food Diary at the end of the day. :(

    Lots of frowns for yesterday, but I had a lot of little wins that weren't in my JFT goals so I'm good with it! My glucose is lower than it has been in 4 years and I hadn't even fasted. Normal range now too. So Yay! I am now being sent to a Rheumatologist to be worked up for autoimmune disorder based on some of the other lab results. I guess that would explain the muscle aches and joint pains, right? One day at a time...actually, Just For Today! :mrgreen:

    Have a wonderful day everyone! Hope all is well!

    Happy Fat Tuesday y'all!

    Ok, so I didn't really eat anything after lunch, so technically I logged my food. I did however drink excessively which there is no way to log at this point. So ehhh. I'm ok with that.

    No big plans today except to take a nap after work. Pretty sure the hangover is just kicking in now about 3:00pm. Or I could just be hungry as I haven't eaten today. Rushed out without my lunch today, and my food stash is in my other office.

    - Bed by 11:30 :smiley:

    Yesterday was a lazy day. I napped after work, got up had a PB&J sandwich and shortly there after went to bed. Not much to tell. I didn't log food, but all I ate was the PB&J so way under. I'm sure today will be a much more food heavy day.

    Today is my former office-mate's last day in the office before she's on PTO then gone for good. Unexpectedly we had donuts & cupcakes. I couldn't resist, but took a simple glazer donut. It was yummy. Then I logged it. :D

    About me: Carmela
    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)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking dog, treadmill in winter, but include weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
    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
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last two years to be continued
    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 basement
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    Just for Today / Wednesday 3-2-2022
    • Make 24 Hour Plan :)
    • Do 24 Hour Assessment for yesterday :)
    • Log into MFP and post my JFT goals :)
    • Drink 4 full MSQC tumblers of water by 7 PM :(I really need to get busy and make this just something I do automatically and get it on lock!
    • Take mom to dental appointment :smile:
    • Walk with Miss Maddie :smile:
    • 30 min declutter in sewing room :(Got sucked into watching the news.
    • 15 min digital declutter :#Ongoing but didn't do it Wednesday.
    • March monthly to-do's (Bills, budget, schedule, birthdays...) [ongoing] :(
    • Dinner - Brats, baked beans, veggies. :)
    • Log all food and close Food Diary at the end of the day. :)

    Well, I obviously need to focus on getting more water in during the day. I've been really bad about this for the past month or so. I just want hot or warm beverages it seems like. Maybe I'll make some herbal teas today? If they don't have caffeine or sugar and are just spices, they should count toward hydration I think...

    I hope y'all are having a nice day! I have to get busy and run to the store for fresh produce and chicken breast to make fajitas and salads. I'm trying to slowly move to a more whole food plant-based diet to see if it help with inflammation in the body like they say. It certainly can't hurt! But it sure makes it hard to do when your husband likes to bake brownies! :wink:

    The photo below is a screenshot of the 24Hour plan I make for No BS every day. Rather than type it out separately, I thought maybe I could just post this? If it doesn't work out well, I'll go back to typing them out on here. :)

    WOTY: Intentional. Today, I will make intentional choices that will move me closer to my goals.

    I don’t know why I’m finding it so hard to get back into some semblance of commitment. I want it, I’m just struggling so hard. By the time I’m home from work I’m just completely bagged and don’t feel like doing anything.
    I also need to go for a week without a Coke and drink only water. I know that a week will do it for me, it has in the past, but I just am craving that ice cold Coke. I’ll keep posting eventually I’ll get sick of putting that I didn’t succeed in meeting my goals and will start doing it.

    @Snowflake1968 I feel your pain! I don't like coming on here and having to say I didn't achieve my aims. I want to lose weight, I know what to do, and I just don't seem to have the energy to do it. It's like it's not my main priority at the moment, and it needs to be! I'm hoping if I keep posting I'll eventually do better.
