Haven't posted for a few days, I just didn't get around to it. I've had a really sore stomach/gut, most probably because I didn't eat properly and ate too much "junk" food. So my aim now is to eat better foods. I succeeded yesterday, apart from little cakes I baked. (I don't bake often, my excuse for this is the gas and electric prices are shooting up from today and one of the pieces of advice is to always fill your oven...so when I was making a meal for myself and son I also put in cakes. Probably not the best choice lol).

Is anyone up for a April Challenge??
I have 2 options .. because some of you are not trying to lose weight, but more maintain.
For me ... I need to do both of these. I am at my highest weight in 3 years.
I am trying NOT to beat myself up (reading about self sabotage... which I do often!). My year started out rocky, and the past 3 months have been challenging .. hence... old habits came back! So I am determined by the end of the year to be back where I should be.
So I am posting my starting weight to be accountable, and going to also work on planning my meals in the morning .. so I know what I am having each day.
Anyone want to join me!!
APRIL CHALLENGE
Lose 5 pounds the month or April, OR, commit to preplan your day everyday. This can be either just preplanning dinner in the morning, or planning the day before.

@mytime6630 I will join your April challenge. I'm not impressed with 2022 so far, it's been stressful and I've been quite down. I need to get a grip or another year will have passed by! My aim is to eat more healthily, I don't eat a huge amount of the "wrong" things but it doesn't take much to stop any weight loss. I'm finding it harder to plan ahead as I often don't know if my son will want to eat with me. It's time to put my own health first, plan ahead, and make plans with him as well. Wish me luck!

Went to see Vs play, Footloose the musical, last night, the kids did a great job. I was pleasantly surprised because when I was there on Wednesday I saw part of rehearsal and it was a mess. They sure made some improvement in a few days. Tonight they are doing a dinner theater version so I’m not sure what’s on my dinner menu this evening. Should be fine though.
Other than that, I’m going to hit the gym once my ibuprofen kicks in for some low impact cardio on the arc trainer. Then I need to pick up a Jean skirt for V. After that it’s shower and get my hair done. My hair dresser has been on maternity leave for quite some time so my gray roots at getting a bit long. Nothing a little root cover up can’t handle, but I’ll be glad not to spray paint my roots anymore.

I slept in this morning, but I finally feel refreshed after an exhausting week. I'm hoping that means I'll get some things done in the house and garden. April promises to be a busy month, so I want to get off to a strong start. In addition to the Easter holidays, we've got two grandkids' birthday celebrations and a couple of short trips planned. I think Joan's idea for an April challenge sounds great and will help keep me focused on healthy habits.
Have a great weekend everyone!

@pridesabtch
My run/walk was disappointing as my knees hurt too much to run, so it was just a walk. Which means I'll be walking my half marathon in September, assuming I can get my pace down to 16min/mile.
It’s such a nuisance when you want to do something and your body just won’t cooperate.

Lose 5 pounds the month or April, OR, commit to preplan your day everyday. This can be either just preplanning dinner in the morning, or planning the day before.
April Challenge:
SW April 1st : 207.0
Meal Planning: Day 1/30
I'm gonna join! For a 5lb weightloss! Need to start actually getting this weight off now!!
Will post stats tomorrow x2 -
I'm in for the 5# challenge. Like @Bex953172 I need to get this weight off instead of bouncing the pounds up & down. PT Jessica agreed losing weight would help me.
Recap F 4/1
1) PT exercises before work
2) Print webinar slides & CPE & summary for records / print wills & trusts class info for next week / update Project Status s/s / update PRO, PAR & HW s/s's & submit / OOO message / leave 11:30 latest = 4.5/6
3) Leave home 11:45 / visitation & 2:00 funeral (uncle 87yo was married to dad's sister) / visit at mom & dad's ~ yes / eat there? Sister brought huge tray of cookies. Since I hadn't eaten since early lunch at my desk before leaving town, I was hungry and ate three. Gah!
4) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / no alarm Sat. (winter indoor market 9-2) = 3/6
JFT Sat. 4/2 ~ slept until 8:30 this morning felt so good
1) PT exercises
2) Move hourly
3) Meals known / no snacks / net calories < 200 red / 80 oz. water
4) Household tasks / declutter 15 min. / read paper online / prep overnight oats / finances?
5) Unplug 9:00 / FLOSS / RETAINERS / Voltaren / Calm app / 7:30 alarm (9:00 church)
Snow that fell Thurs had melted, but this morning we woke up to fresh dusting of snow on the grass. Now melted from snow turned to rain, and drizzly, dreary day. Hubby and I not inclined to leave the house, so we're skipping errands today, including me at winter market, relaxing & I'm doing some household stuff that I've put off.
Yesterday, hubby and I went to my uncle's funeral, at a small country church I hadn't been in for years. I saw numerous cousins for first time in ages (not all, since there are 22 of us), all my other aunts & uncles, my 4 siblings & all but one's spouse. Caroline (uncle's daughter) was so happy to see me and grateful I came, so very glad I did. After the service, private burial at cemetery down the road, so the rest of us visited outside the church until the brisk wind chased us to our cars. My sibs, spouses & aunt on mom's side went to visit at mom & dad's house. Wonderful visits with all, time flew by. Hubby and I left nearly three hours later, because Kitty was missing her supper time, finally home just after 7:00. My immediate family will be together again on Easter yay.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)
- 3.31.22 maintaining not gaining
- Started PT (physical therapy) exercises 1.28.22 due to overuse of arthritic knees
- 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 basement2 -
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). Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I track daily on a separate app (helps me visualize). My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. No goal dates set ~ this is not a diet but my lifestyle.

Cool, rainy Sunday, but my husband wants to grill anyway. I think we're all looking forward to the relaxing vibe of warmer days and more time outdoors. So I'll make a warm weather meal - chicken souvlaki, grilled veggies, Greek salad, and homemade tzatziki - and cut a big bunch of daffodils for the table. A little bit of homemade sunshine for a dreary day
Have a lovely day!

SW (4/1): 171.4
GW: 166.4
Meal planning: 3/304 -
JFT, Sat, 4/2
1. log all food
2. go to gym ... try interval training + weights
3. clean house
4. take daughter to bookstore She still did not want to go .. made up excuses to stay in her apartment.
5. read 1 chapter "the shift"
6. plan todays meal plan challenge Dinner was leftovers.
I did really good all day yesterday until the evening. Went to the gym.. did interval training. Helped hubby, sewed, cleaned the house. Then I saw the unopened box of orea cookies that I had bought for when our son was visiting. Big mistake .. I thought I could just eat a couple. I think I ate half the box. The rest I tried to freeze ... but I ended up opening the freezer to grab more .. so I ended up tossing them in the trash. I know its wasting food, and those things cost $4.00. But what is the difference.. I eat them all and gain another pound, or throw them out. So .. they are in the trash. I have a difficult time controlling myself right now when that kind of food is in the house.
JFT, Sunday, 4/3
1. plan meals for today - april challenge - tonite, either beef burrittos or chicken fajitas. Since I'm working in the yard.. want something easy. My breakfast is always easy .. oatmeal, and lunches are either yogurt, cottage cheese, or a simple sandwich. Snack tonite ... just a orange or protein shake.. nothing else
2. work in the yard
3. try to walk or maybe ride my bike
4. concentrate on water
