Behind again! It’s because I’m trying to calm my brain from screen time after my stressful workdays. It’s a tough balancing act.

I have grandson the next few days so won't add the extra stress of logging, but will be aware. Already this morning I've not joined him in a snack.
Didn't get time to post yesterday, long day with an awkward child! Nursery today so I'll get caught up on all the outstanding jobs, and do some more house clearing. Unfortunately it's raining, and have urgent outside things to do.

I've been giving myself a talking-to. If I don't get a grip I'll finish this year just as I started it, just like I did in 2021. It's 20 weeks until I'll see my family from abroad, I want to make a difference by then.

1) PT exercises before work plus some arms with hand weights
2) Move hourly 8.8K 23 floors 11/14
3) Leftovers for supper / net calories < 300 red / 96 oz. water Ack! Evening snacking again. -858 (?), sodium red not horrible, fiber, calcium & protein excellent (of course, b/c I ate what I wanted). Very low water 56 oz.
4) Contact Jenni A for missing docs ~ very timely response = thank you! / BC-CC conclude testing ~ last bits of online research becoming difficult & time-consuming, kind of expected with BC / 9:00 EHN update / Facebook Live video / prep webinar summary forms for this week / emails current, some backlog = 5.5/6 plus fire drill plus weird emails from *kitten*. manager (par for the course here) + chats with co-workers to understand
5) If weather improves, walk dog to park (1 mile total) = YAY / meal plan & grocery list / declutter 15 min. / another ta-da? made overnight oats = 3/4
6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work) 6/6
JFT W 3/16
1) PT exercises before work
2) Move hourly / pace during webinar / walk dog to park after work
3) Net calories < 300 red / 96 oz. water
4) BC-CC finish research & start writing testing / 1:00 webinar / complete, digitally sign webinar summary form / submit form & CPE cert to LC / emails current

6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work)
Fog had finally cleared & weather was spring-like when I got home from work, so hubby & I walked dog to park and back. Dog was sooo excited when I got her harness out! She hasn't had a proper long walk in months. I realize I have to take walks at a slower pace & not the usual distance as my knees recover from overuse. We walked 1.2 miles last night & it was WONDERFUL. Dog tramped through all the melting snow and mud, dragged leash through puddles & came home wet from the belly down. She's very good about allowing us to towel her off (unlike our prior dog, who would sit or lay down rather than let you towel her dry).

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)
- 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 -

- Bible Study/or School to paint depending on how I feel
- Log food

Have a terrific Tuesday y'all!
Yesterday was a bust health wise, didn't eat well, didn't log (may go back today and log what I remember), didn't exercise. Yeah, I felt poorly and my office was an inferno so I went home for the second half of the day yesterday.
Things at work are going better career wise. I am going to get to stay with the new job when the companies separate. Unfortunately, it's trial by fire in the quality world so there are huge issues I need to wrap my head around. It's okay, I like the work, and I'm getting to move up in my career rather than being forced to take a step back.
It's Wednesday and I have zero excuses not to exercise today, so I WILL ride the damn bike for at least an hour. I'm getting way behind on my cycling challenge of 2022 miles in 2022, I'm only at like 350miles since January. When the weather is nicer my rides should get longer and hopefully I'll be able to hit my goal.
JFT Wednesday
- Work by 8:00
- Log food
- Stay green
- Ride bike
- Bed by 11:30

I got a new bag of peanuts for the birds, it weighs 10kg. That's about what I need to lose, and it feels heavy! That weight on my knees is not helping them at all.
