    Welcome @beln2day I saw after your first set of completed goals (well done btw!) That you weren't sure what tomorrows goals would be!

    Alot of people's goals on here are very much the same day to day to 'build the habit' so don't worry if you're posting the same things.
    Mine are always to do with water, logging, some form of exercise and then just random to-do things that I might need to remember that day :)

    Hour commitment - too many eating opportunities at the conference. Trying to take part, but enough is enough. I don’t feel good with all the snacks they’re providing, even though I’m burning lots of calories skiing and walking around. Just for today, I won’t partake of the 4pm chocolate cookie or the 9 pm ice cream. Can still enjoy other stuff.

    Thanks for the hugs yesterday, my JFTers! It was a crummy Monday. Your support means a lot to me. <3

    Recap M 3/7
    1) PT exercises & b.s. test before work :smiley:
    2) Move hourly :) 6.4K 20 floors 13/14 (thought I had 14/14 but not enough steps that first hour of the day)
    3) Net calories < 300 red / 96 oz. water :# hubby's sister over again, I wasn't up for cooking, so we opted for thin crust pizza... then I ate banana chocolate chip bread (extra purchase that I picked up at bread shop) for dessert. Oops. It was one day. Red 567, high sodium (ack), calcium good (yay), fiber ok, protein excellent, water 96 oz. YAY
    4) BC-CC testing other stuff / update PAR, PRO, HW s/s's for current week / emails current / 4:00 dentist ~ dang cap of implant came out yesterday as I was brushing my teeth & I grabbed it from the sink ~ all fixed yay = 3/4
    5) Ship b.s. test / pick up bread at shop / mail 2 bday cards / declutter 15 min. / PT eval check-in docs / another ta-da? several pain in the *kitten* tasks TA-DA! :) 4/6
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work) = 4/7

    JFT T 3/8
    1) PT exercises before work :smiley:
    2) Move hourly
    3) Make casserole for supper (ground beef defrosting) / net calories < 300 red / 96 oz. water
    4) Print slides for W webinar / prep webinar summary form / BC-CC testing / Facebook Live video / emails current
    5) Gas in car / refill bird feeders / boil eggs / PT eval check-in docs / start reply to PW / declutter 15 min. / another ta-da?
    6) Unplug 9:00 / FLOSS / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work)

    Feeling much better today. Back to drinking enough water really helps. Aches & pains receded. Healing cap back on dental implant, hopefully for good. Told dentist I like him but don't want to see him every week haha. Now I'm looking forward to physical therapy full evaluation for my knee on Thurs. Knee is sloooowly improving, but making me crazy not to walk dog our 3-4 mile routes, especially now that winter is ending. I even use the elevator at work occasionally, which I never used to.

    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

    Have a happy Monday y'all!

    Yesterday was stressful, but all worked out well. I did end up staying at work until 6:00pm to get everything wrapped up so I missed spin class, but I did an hour on the damn bike so that was good. I also discovered that I can eat only one piece of pizza and walk away. However hubby made pie so I had to try a bit of both the cherry and the blackberry. Yummm. So even though I only had one slice of pizza, I had 3 slices total of goodness.

    Weight was down a bit today, which was nice after it being up yesterday. Gotta love fluctuations. Trend is still good. Completely tuckered today after a night of wakefulness.

    Hopefully, I will get out of work on time today and get a ride in before I crash. If I nap first, I'll never ride.

    @clicketykeys ((hugs))) about your weight journey. I'm frustrated with mine too, it's like "put that down! Exercise!" But I look at all that's left to pack and go do that instead, or get sad and eat cookies. Small steps; let's both try to make one small step forward today.

    *hugs* Yeah - one small step I've made is to download a basic calendar app that will work when I'm offline. I don't have unlimited data, and if I don't log what I eat right away, I forget. Hopefully this will help.
