Happy Tuesday y'all!
Prideful me is struggling with my current level of fitness. I know I'm getting stronger on the bike, but the progress is soooooo slow. I tried to take an FTP Test (basically a fitness test for a baseline) on the Peleton (damn bike) yesterday and I totally failed. My head was not in the right space and I crashed and burned. Didn't make it 5 minutes into the test before I quit. I suppose I went out too hard, but the level I was riding at seemed so pathetic... It was awful. I pulled out of the test and tried to do a simple recovery ride, which I also bailed on. True I ate just before riding, which was not smart, but still I should have done better. I'm struggling mightily today to accept where I am fitness wise, but it's hard for me seeing how far I've fallen off the pace. Anyway, I hope I can get my head on straight and let this go and get back at it this evening. Maybe not a test, but just a ride. Yesterday I couldn't even manage that.
Got about everything else done yesterday. No big plans this evening. Tim will go to church so I should make dinner. No biggie, stir fry some veggies for V add a bit of protein for me and maybe make rice and bam done, one vegetarian meal and enough veggies to feed Tim & I when I add protein. Probably chicken. Either way, I need to go to the grocery after work.

Have a great Wednesday all!!5 -
My general goals:
Pack etc.
Get the actually important tasks done ❌ Yes and no, helped DH with his packing goals but barely got to mine; did laundry though
Don't stress over what you can't change ✅
Mentally mark things that get tossed if there's no room on the truck ✅
Reach for water/tea rather than snacks and keep trying to ballpark track calories ❌ didn't track
Can you move enough things to exercise? Need to prepare for "the truck day" ✅
Bring a flashlight to bed (all lights are packed) to read a little ✅
Trust and pray ✅
JFT Tuesday:
Wait quietly for DH to wake up (struggling with neck pain) ✅
Do more self-care goals for the morning, take longer to pray and read Scripture (stress/packing can wait) ✅
Exercise NOW ✅ only 15 minutes need to get my tush in gear for the big day
Start laundry ✅
Carry around water with you ✅ wasn't possible but did try to drink more
Finish completely the 1 room; all done packing that room ❌ still not done!
pay a bill early ✅
make at least 1 phone call ❌
double check task list; keep on schedule ❌
finish laundry ❌ not quite almost done
make last of the spring rolls today ❌ DH started and made all the filling then we discovered the wraps we saved went kaput in the freezer. will have to get more today
no dessert; just tea ❌ had 1 cookie but stopped myself after that
@mytime6630 (((hugs))) Sorry you're going through such a difficult time. And yes the news is concerning. Where I live currently there are many who fled the USSR for various reasons. We are near a base so get to "hear" more news even with the radio off. We too have been curtailing our news intake. Prayers for your family and for your peace of mind.
@Bein2day
Take it easy when you come off meds. Don't push yourself too hard.
@Bex953172 Oh my! I hope you feel better soon!!
@clicketykeys I use a paper planner I made myself, and scrap paper; we don't have unlimited data (or power) either. Downloading something to use offline sounds like a good step! I did stay firm on my exercise goal and put in 15 minutes. It wasn't nearly enough but it was something. And I tried to drink more water and said "no" to seconds at dinner.
JFT Wednesday:
Wait quietly for DH to wake up
Get ready fast no chit-chat
Stay firm on prayer time goal
get laundry going
walk and do errands (save on gas and burn calories hey!)
finish that one room
make a "what's left to do list" so don't forget
do something from March list, or two
put in more exercise even in the evening; must get ready for truck day
no cookies just water6 -

Your weight loss is going great! Four pounds in less than 2 weeks is stellar, but don't get frustrated if you don't keep losing at that rate. Things tend to slow down and people get frustrated, stick to the plan and let it work for you. It does work even if it isn't always on our timeline. Good luck!3 -

@BeIn2day - snacking is my downfall too. 😂 I so agree with you sometimes some people are just irritating!
@Bex953172 - hope you’re feeling better
@MrsHermit - when do you move? I have the greatest respect for people that are doing what you are. I grew up without running hot water, no tub, a toilet that had to be flushed with water and only wood for heat. I have absolutely no interest in going without some things now.
@pridesabtch - I hope today was better for you and you showed yourself some grace.
@Janele0627 - if video gaming makes you happy I would call it self care.

Hour commitment - I won’t eat again until tomorrow. Don’t eat conference 4 pm chocolate chip cookie or late night ice cream tomorrow.3

Have a great Wednesday all!!
I was in a better head space yesterday, thankfully. Feel like I go a lot done. It was kind of nice coming home to an empty house where I could exercise, clean the kitchen and cook with few distractions. Well the dogs are annoying when I exercise, but I'm used to them. Except after I'm done when I'm taking off my shoes they like to lick the sweat off my legs. That grosses me out, but they a sneaky and aren't put off easily. Working from home today, which I haven't been able to do the past few weeks. It's nice. Also taking the golden for a grooming appointment today. It will be his first since his surgery. Boy does he need it! Other than that, I have to go to mom's and teach spin class. Not sure what we'll do for dinner. I think we have leftovers from last night, but not enough for all three of us. Oh well, Tim can figure it out this evening since I picked yesterday.

This morning I had a full PT (physical therapy) evaluation to see where I was at after 1/27/22 diagnosis of overuse (along with my arthritis) in knees. Same PT Jessica could tell I have been doing the exercises she gave me, was pleased with my form, liked my fun socks, and made some modifications to keep building my strength. Who knew my arthritis would lead to PT? Not me. Jessica feels I can build up to walking in 5K & 10K race events again. Most exciting today, she feels I should take a short walk with dog to see how things go. YAY!

My goals are to get through the rest of work, drink lots of water when I get home, and rest. Maybe go to bed early...Idk about anything else. Don't want to set myself up for failure or disappointment.4 -

Okay so today I woke up and felt like posting goals? Soooo that's what I'll do.
Not sure what's going on but I seem to really want to do my goals. Then not do them for no particular reason and then want to do them again.
Maybe consistency should of been my word of the year 😂
JFT Friday 11th
- Log all food
- 10k steps (took me about 2 weeks to put my watch back on.. whyy?!)
- 6 waters (still feel a little dehydrated from my illness the other day, it's scary how bad dehydration can make your body feel so poorly and unable to function properly.)
- Clean all the pots
- Make a start on getting the laundry away.
- Try not to sit down!! (When I sit down for 'just 5 mins' it turns into like an hour .. or more)4 -
My goals for today ~ March 11th
1. Type up 3 items at work
2. Tidy up the bedroom / organise it
3. Set up my new Garmin watch
Friday is my 'treat day' I can either chose to have a takeaway meal or chocolate & crisps. I'm just making as many changes to my diet as I can. Baby steps. I don't want to completely overwhelm myself- so I am eating healthy about 80% of the time currently.
I love my Garmin! What kind did you get?0 -

Happy Thursday y'all!
Yesterday was pretty good other than the fact that I made pepperoni rolls (little balls of goodness ~ 122 calories each) for hubby to take to work and he left them at home. I had a few for breakfast, then a few more for lunch and then a snack... You get the point. I ended up skipping dinner because I had so many rolls during the day. I ended up in the green, and my weight was the same today, so I didn't do too much damage. Well except that my tummy is paying for the high fat high carb day today. A little on the rumbly side.
Spin class was good, had two folks there who I haven't seen in years. Boy I've missed my old regulars. It was great to chat and catch up. It was a little disappointing though that they were the only 2 who showed up for class. If they hadn't come, I would have gone to the Choir Parents Meeting. Glad I got out of that. Those things last forever. I love my creative friends, but organization and meetings do not seem to be their strong suit.

1. Type up 3 items at work
2. Tidy up the bedroom / organise it
3. Set up my new Garmin watch
Friday is my 'treat day' I can either chose to have a takeaway meal or chocolate & crisps. I'm just making as many changes to my diet as I can. Baby steps. I don't want to completely overwhelm myself- so I am eating healthy about 80% of the time currently.
I love my Garmin! What kind did you get?
I got a Garmin Venu (it was a Christmas present I'm only just getting round to setting it up 🙈) what garmin do you have ??
Forerunner 735XT I’ve had it for several years and it keeps on ticking. It’s made for triathletes so it does swim, bike & run.2 -

Stay in the green no
Only one snack 2 I think
No evening snacking none
Foot exercises yes
Back exercises no
Electric bill yes
Grocery shopping yes
Solicitor's meeting yes
Pack for tomorrow yes
Going to sign off tonight as I'll be away early tomorrow, starting my weekly changeovers at the holiday let. Holidays sure are starting early this year!
Also want to draw a line under this evening, my son suggested takeaway so had a cheeseburger instead of a calorie counted meal. I've no idea how many calories that is to log. It was an unplanned family dinner, yet again grandson's mother said she couldn't have him when it was her turn. This happens far too often, I'm pretty sure she has the same cold that we have, and we're managing to look after him!
Have a great weekend everyone!4 -
Back from our trip! But am starting my preparation week for a colonoscopy. Quit my vitamins and fiber supplement so far. Not too bad for a few days, then I have start limiting foods with fiber. Drats!!! But I can have rice, pasta, chicken, etc. The end of the week I go to completely clear liquid diet. Will need flexibility in eating for some of this.
