    Thank you all for your kind words for my daughter and the family. I have talked to her via text a few times today. She is napping when she can and grieving. She is trying to think positive that many people she knows have had healthy happy babies after suffering.

    @littleblackskirt - I am doing the same with chips as you are biscuits. I just need to stop buying it.

    @pridesabtch - that’s huge success on purging clothes.

    I’m tired as last night was not a restful sleep.

    Awh yes of course I'm glad she's trying to think positively. But of my 4 pregnancies, I had only the one that went wrong. And all the drs could say was sometimes it "just happens" it wasn't anything I did or anything that caused it. I think the statistics were 1 in 100. Just unfortunately someone has to be that 1. And he said the chances of it happening again are the same. I wasn't at any increased risk following what happened.

    I know it's different for every person, it happens at different stages for different reasons, just don't let her blame herself. It won't be anything she's done at all xxx I know you know all this too, having been through the same yourself. I just care that's all xx

    @Snowflake1968 I'm glad your daughter is trying to think positively. She is right that it is unfortunately very common, but most people go on to have a healthy baby afterwards. Even the comments on here show that. I had 4 pregnancies, resulting in 2 healthy boys. After I lost my first I was really surprised how many people told me it had also happened to them. Hopefully it will happen for your daughter when she's ready for another attempt.

    JFT Wednesday 25th May

    Stay under maintenance yes
    Only one small snack 2
    Foot exercises yes
    Back exercises no
    Holiday let laundry (have done the easy stuff, have all the stained stuff left to do) yes, successful stain removal!
    Ironing yes
    Paperwork/bills no

    I didn't get round to doing the bills, but did tackle a frog job, spring cleaned my porch, including moving the furniture. The weather was too bad to do anything outside.
    Today it has finally dried up, but it's still really windy. I dislike walking or gardening in the wind.
    I tried on a couple of dresses I bought, they are keepers. I just wish it was warm enough to wear them!

    Recap W 5/25 ~ not really Hump Day, since Fri is a holiday where I work
    1) PT exercises before work :smiley: Astounded by how much the workout challenges me after skipping for ONE week, emphasizes how I need to keep this in my workout rotation!
    2) Move hourly / stairs breaks :) 7.3K 23 floors 14/14 boom!
    3) Leftovers for supper / net calories zero / 96 oz. water :smiley: net cals -75 close enough, sodium green yay, fiber close, protein & calcium excellent, 96 oz. water
    4) Hold Percentages F&Ds, maybe contact Paul for on-site review / other GA-S F&Ds if time / mgmt response for PA-E&T due, will I get it? nope = 2/3
    5) 6:00 visit Peg & her broken ankle she asked to postpone / prep overnight oats / another ta-da? nope = 1/3
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / pray & Calm / 5:45 alarm (walk dog before work) ACK!

    JFT R 5/26 ~ crummy weather day 2, impromptu rest day
    1) Move hourly / stairs breaks
    2) Net calories zero / 96 oz. water
    3) Two vs One Meeting done / Staff Meeting canceled last minute / PA-E&T follow-up mgmt response pending ~ extension requested/granted / meeting w/ Paul 1:30 / update mileage log & submit / update Project Status s/s / update & submit PRO, PAR, HW s/s's / pdf month end PAR, digital sign & submit / GA-S F&Ds to extent I can
    4) Any ta-da is bonus
    5) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / pray & Calm / no alarm (holiday F)

    This morning in the office has been frustrating and stressful. Several of my dept. co-workers feel the same, but dept mgmt does not get that we are feeling this way. As long as their ridiculous agenda gets done. Sucks. Very happy that I have a long weekend (F & M are holidays, T PTO) and I will be out of office until Wed. YAY! Sorry for posting my day under JFT, but it helps me to see what I've actually addressed & what I have left to complete.

    May Exercise Challenge:
    Goal 1: PT exercises 4-5 days per week
    Week 1: :smiley::smiley::smiley: {more dog walks instead}
    Week 2: :smiley::smiley::smiley:
    Week 3: :smiley::smiley:
    Week 4: :smiley:

    Goal 2: 3 mile dog walks, up to 5 days per week by end of May if knees permit
    Week 1: :smiley: 3.06 :smiley: 3.18 :) 1.61 w/ hubby :smiley: 3.06
    Week 2: :smiley: 3.25 before work yay :) 1.42 Fox Tails work hike :smiley: 3.06 :sunglasses: 3.19

    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)
    • 3.31.22 maintaining not gaining
    • 4.30.22 barely maintaining
    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
    • registered 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

    I have 529 calories left, which is too much. But if I eat now, exercising will be uncomfortable. I'm hungry but I just have to wait.

    Lots to do today before the predicted afternoon rain, but I'm waiting on an electrician who should have been here an hour ago. Ugh! My husband, who set up the appointment, is stuck in San Diego. He went out for a conference and should have been home a week ago, but the morning of his flight he woke up with a scratchy throat and tested positive for covid. Fortunately, he's only had relatively mild symptoms. He'd rebooked for today but tested positive again last night, so another delay. I'm so glad he's not feeling ill, but I've been in a bit of a funk this week.

    The garden really needs my attention this weekend, so I'd best get to it.

    Recap - Thursday, 5/26
    Log - :)
    Balanced meals - :)
    Hydrate - :)
    Exercise - 79 minutes walking in the hilly park
    Pool service - :) New pump installed
    Garden? - No. Went shopping for some summer clothes instead.
    Bank? - :)
    Email Vrbo host - No

    @beachwalker99 sorry to hear that Covid is detaining your husband. Hope his symptoms remain mild!

    Well I got my yoga done this morning but not the fast marching. But the day is not over yet.

    My dad fell, but he seems to be okay. He is folding laundry. He never learned that any excuse is a good excuse to postpone folding laundry!

    Next up is taking my mom to a routine doctor appointment. Busy day.

    Woke up this morning and looked at my work calendar. It was mostly clear so I decided to take the day off. Doing some things around the house today and not worrying about the world.

    Happy Friday y’all!

    JFT Friday
    1. No candy no
    2. No cookies yes
    3. Eat under my calorie limit yes
    4. Yoga yes
    5. Fast marching no
    6. Eat salad yes
    7. Get mom to her appointment yes

    So I finally broke down and had a little chocolate candy, a single tablespoon which is a reasonable amount. No harm as long as it stops there.

    I missed the fast marching this morning and decided to let it go this evening. Just because it was a long day. So I did not move towards my big goals today. But I don't think I lost much ground.

    The scale was disappointing. Can't really say what the difference is because my weekly start point got screwed up, but I saw 168 then finished at 169.9. Gotta stop eating my exercise calories. And drink more water.

    JFT Saturday
    1. No candy
    2. No cookies
    3. Eat under my calorie limit
    4. Dumbbells 40 reps
    5. Eat a vegetable

    @Anniesquats100 - You've been doing great! The scale can seem like a fickle friend, but there are so many things that can affect weight on any given day - high sodium, poor sleep, anything that causes inflammation, etc. I'm really sensitive to sodium, and my weight can shoot up a couple of pounds or more after a takeout meal. It's likely that your higher weight at the end of the week is a temporary blip. However, you might want to consider eating back only a portion of your exercise calories, maybe 50-75%, since the calorie burn estimates can be off.

    I had a really nice Saturday with my grandsons. After a brief downpour at lunchtime, the weather cleared and we went to the park for a walk and some time on the playgound. I got a second walk in at the beach before the concert. It was a gorgeous evening - warm with light breeze - and the light on the ocean was just magic.

    My food choices weren't great - takeout for lunch and boardwalk food for dinner - and i gave up trying to figure out how to log it. I'll be back on track today.
