    Sw: 310.7 lb
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 180 lb lean muscle
    2022 Goal Weight: 280 lbs

    I'm late to the game, but I hope it's ok that I jump on board! My word for the year is accountable - Not only in my health habits, but also in all the other areas of my life. I started school on February 21st, and I'm determined to not let my being out of high school for 13 years stop me from succeeding.

    Daily goal for tomorrow: Monday, March 3

    Welcome! Beast of luck. I’m proud of you for taking time for yourself and going back to school. It isn’t easy, but it’s worth it!

    JFT Sunday

    - church 😞
    - Log :smiley:

    Yeah that’s it…

    Just had zero motivation this weekend. I felt poorly Saturday, but Sunday I have no excuse but sheer laziness and maybe a tad bit of depression peaking in. Gotta turn that around today and the best way for me to do that is to exercise,

    Didn't sleep well last night, so we'll see.

    JFT Monday
    - Up at 6:30 :smiley: Actually up at 4:14, but didn't get out of bed until 7:15. I just didn't want to!
    - Work by 8:30 :smiley:
    - Meetings
    - Random work stuff
    - Home early
    - Ride damn bike
    - Go to school and paint sets
    - Log food
    - Stay green
    - Bed by 11:30

    Have a great Monday y'all!

    3) PT exercises :s nope
    4) Leftovers for supper / no evening snacking >:) switched to late afternoon ~ ack! / net calories < 300 / 96 oz. water :s horrible numbers two days in a row, not stellar weekend, and not sure of water intake ~ at least 64 oz. water ok with that
    5) Declutter 15 min. / prep bill payments / meal plan & grocery list / make overnight oats / another ta-da? yep = 4/5
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / rinse / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work) = 2/7 so lazy at bedtime lately!

    JFT M 3/14
    1) PT exercises before work :smiley: hard getting up early after clocks spring ahead
    2) Move hourly
    3) Net calories <300 red / 96 oz. water
    4) BC-CC testing ~ complete docs research? / emails current
    5) Drop payments in mail / declutter 15 min. / another ta-da?

    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
    • Started PT (physical therapy) exercises 1.28.22 due to overuse of arthritic knees
    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

    Yesterday was quite productive. I didn't ride the bike, but truth be told I didn't have the energy to do it anyway. I went to the school and painted which took about all I had in me.

    Feeling a bit rough today, but plodding along.

    V has a follow-up appointment for her shoulder today to gage progress. Hopefully that goes well. Tim is taking her today.

    I have to get a cracked tooth repaired today after work, no looking forward to that. Then there is Bible study for which I am not prepared.

    Hour commitment - Just finished lunch. Now I won't eat again until after 5 pm. I let myself have marshmallows with lunch because they're zero fiber and allowed on my plan. I won't eat any of the same stull at dinner as at lunch.
