JFT Thurs 6th

- Log all food ✔️
- 4 waters✔️
- 10k steps✔️
- Clean kitchen❌
- Exercise ✔️

Our money hit the account last night. So at midnight I went and got a McDonald's.
And after it I still had 79 Cal's remaining 😂 good job I did that exercise!
We had no food in and me and ash were both hungry (we'd had dinner but we're still hungry in general) and with McDonalds over the road it's just easy.
And you know what, I really enjoyed it lol.

Today is ALSO takeaway night so I'll have to bear that in mind so I'll need to make good choices in the day (will have to go food shopping first lol!!!)

JFT Friday 7th

- Log all food
- 10k steps
- 6 waters today
- Food shopping
- Clean kitchen!!

Not sure whether to weigh in due to TOTM and McDonalds. I dunno if it will be accurate.

@AJB1014 Before I forget again, welcome back! Good to see you posting again. How's little Ray (I think that's his name) doing? Is he 1 or 2 yo now?

Recap R 1/6
1) Treadmill 3 miles before work
2) Move hourly / stairs breaks / pace in office during webinar 14/14 boom! 25 floors & 15.4K
3) Supper? leftovers / net calories zero / 112 oz. water -427 due to stress evening snacking, sodium not bad, protein & fiber excellent, sugar high, 96 oz.
4) Catch up daily work log comments / clear some email backlog / Facebook Live 12:00 / webinar 2:00 / online training if time = 2/5
5) Shovel snow? just patio, hubby did rest / place citrus order / balance bank accts / update budget s/s / another ta-da? sort of = 2/5
6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:00 alarm (treadmill before work) = 5/6

JFT F 1/7
1) Remain calm ~ things will work out ~ keep praying
2) Move hourly / stairs breaks
3) Supper w/ hubby at home? / net calories zero / 112 oz. water
4) Catch up daily work log comments / clear some email backlog / online training / update Project Status s/s / submit PRO, PAR, KRO s/s

Work issues for myself this week have been causing me stress, but managing. Then last night, work issues for hubby came to boiling point, and he clocked out early and took vacation time for rest of this week. He scared me silly walking in last night while I finished up caring for kitty and dog. Then when he told me what happened, I completely stressed out for him... not good. Using Calm app, I was able to fall asleep normal time, but woke during night & felt stressed all over. Finally got calmed & slept again, but no early a.m. workout today.

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
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
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
• registered for Frenzy on the Fox 5K on 1.21.22
• registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.5.22
• 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

We got our first real snow of the season last night - woo hoo! My son decided to stay another day before heading south. Although I'm sorry his plans for visiting a friend and stopping overnight with my other son fell through, I'm happy to have more time with him. My daughter's kids have a snow day, so they'll be over later. And my husband is working from home and not too busy, so it feels like the weekend already.

Recap - Thursday, 1/6
Balanced meals - Not too bad. I filled half of my plate with salad and had only one enchilada. No snacks during the day, but I had some chocolate fondue with fruit for dessert.
Stay hydrated -
Walk or stationary bike -
Quick grocery run - - Not exactly quick. The store was mobbed, but I did get everything I needed.
Make enchiladas -
Lego project (if there's time) - A few frustrating bits, but we made lots of progress.
Enjoy time with family -
Bed by midnight? - Not even close. Stayed up far too late researching home BP monitors. Still undecided!

JFT Friday, 1/7
Balanced meals
Stay hydrated
Walk in the snow
Straighten house for the weekend
Lego project
Enjoy time with family
Bed by midnight?

Weekly weigh-in 2021 I plan on weighing every friday
SW Friday, Jan 1st: 195.6
SW: Feb 5: 191.8
SW: Mar 5: 193
SW: April 2: 190.4
SW: May 188
SW: June 190
SW: July: -- skipped this month
SW: August: 184.6

**Skipped recording weigh-ins from August until just now... this is what has happened. Gain of 15 pounds over the holidays. This is something every year I struggle with .. gaining from Halloween until New Years. THIS year, I will learn how to NOT let this happen .
Weight history 2021
Friday, Jan 8: 194.4 -1.2
Jan 15: 194.6. +.2 I was down to 193.4 2 days ago .. but this reflects 2 days of mindless eating.
Jan 22: 191.4 -3.2 5 out of 7 days were good ...
Jan 29: 194.2 -- this is what happens when I don't track, give into stress and emotional eating. But ... My word for the year is consistency... that means consistently also recording my weight .. and being accountable. So its a new week.. again.
Feb 5: 191.8 -- trying to get back on track with controlled nite time eating
Feb 12: 194.3 --- I don't know why, but I can do good for a week, only to blow it the next week. I think the pandemic, the cold dreary weather is leading me to just overeat.
Feb 19: 194 --- a very small loss, due to 4 days of overeating granola bars and Kind bars.
Feb 26: 193 -- 5 out of 7 days I did OK, especially with nite time snacking.
Mar 5: 193 -- stayed the same, but had 2 days of eating icecream and peeps
Mar 12: 192.6. Started challenge of the rest of the month NO nite time eating at all.
Mar 19: 190.4 -- 5 out of 7 days NO nite time eating. Goal next week ... 6 our of 7 day no nite time eating, 8+ glasses water @ day.
March 26: 188.6--- 6 out of 7 days I did good .. no nite time eating. Last nite... food was in control of me. I was so tired, and instead of lying down... I grazed the entire nite. So much that I had trouble sleeping. So while right now my weight is down, I expect it to go up. So next weeks goal is 7 out of 7 days.
April 2: 190.4 --- not the best week.. but I am still down 5.2 pounds for the first 3 months of this year. So I will look at the positives.
April 9: 191.2 --- even though I had a OK week, I think eating ham for 3 days .. hoping its just water weight.
April 16: 187.6 -- a week of more mindful eating, especially in the evenings, plus a lot more exercise with walking and garden work.
April 23: 187 -- a very small loss, but at least the scale is going in the right direction. I will continue to work on the nite time snacking and emotional eating.
April 30 188.8 -- got into the ice cream again.I am just 10 pounds before I am in a healthy, normal weight for my height.. but those 10# have been the hardest. I met that goal in 2019 ... trying to get back there.
May 14: 188.0 -- A week of terrible back pain, so I wasn't really watching, or caring what I ate. So happy that I at least did not gain much.
May 21: 185.6 -- lots of walking and yard work this past week.
June 4: 190.1 -- this is what happens when I am not paying attention to habits, etc.
Missed tracking weight almost all through june and july. back on track now
July 30: 186.8 --- trying to plan dinner meal better, and doing a lot of walking. Gave up caffeine .. on week 3 now.
August 5: 184.8 ---- good week. No caffeince, which actually helped with my eating. Planning at least dinner meal is also helping me.
**Skipped recording weigh-ins from August until just now... this is what has happened. Gain of 15 pounds over the holidays. This is something every year I struggle with .. gaining from Halloween until New Years. THIS year, I will learn how to NOT let this happen .

2022 Weigh-ins

SW: Jan 1: 199.0

Jan 7: 201.6 --- feeling so depressed with this sore on my back... and I guess been eating out of stress/boredom. Not sleeping, so no motivaton. doctor put me on a second round of antibiotics .. so I hope it starts to heel. But I need to get more serious about logging my food ... hate being out of the 100s again! Always said I'd never let this happen.

Happy Friday! Although, most days tend to run together now while I'm not working, Friday is still my favorite day. It's getting harder and harder to not go back to work. I'm not sure what I could do full-time with the different physical issues I am being treated for, so I have to work to keep my spirits up every day since I tend to get depressed in the winter anyway. I'm trying to focus on getting healthier by trying new foods, recipes, activities, etc.

@AJB1014 Welcome back! How is your little guy doing? How have you been? So happy to see you back!

@Bex953172 I haven't had McDonald's in such a long time! I think they have the best fries of all fast foods and could eat them every day I think.

@Snowflake1968 I find myself hopping on and reading to catch up and then running out of time to post my own goals. I have to find a happy balance this year because I don't want to be so absent again. I find I just can't reply to everything I want to if I want to post goals also.

Just for Friday

1. 24H plan and assess | follow plan | eat only when hungry | stop at 'enough'
2. Drink 64+ oz of water
3. Close activity rings on watch
4. Incorporate 5 something's at bathroom doorway and bedroom doorways
5. Listen to Module 1 of No BS in preparation for 2:00 call with Accountability Group
6. Bills/Budget for January
7. Make Lentil Soup recipe
8. Check for transfer from CCU to WMCU
9. Self-Care: Calm App / reading / etc.
10. Evening routine: Coffeemaker set up / brush & floss / facial / readings by Dodie or Joyce and Simple Abundance / Gratitude Journal / read until lights out.

WOTY 2022: Resilient.

Dont worry yourself! Like you said it's been a tough week. And I know it's not the best start to the year and you didn't want to be out of the 100s but it's only just over!
You can do this!! A new day, a new week! I know when you're feeling better you'll get right on track because you'll *feel* like doing it!

@Bex953172 - I just love McDonald’s. It’s one of my favourites and I will not eat all day so I can have it.

@cschmitz110515 - seems work issues are going around this week.

@PackerFanInGB - I think I need to take the time at work and have a 15 minute break in the morning. Or I need to promise myself I’ll at least read and post goals during the week but not feel guilty if I can’t respond until weekends.

We’ll see this week has not been a good week work wise so it’s not the best way to judge.

I started my second round of ceramics classes last night. I am making a project for my eldest daughter. She is a Halloween fan more than Christmas but this comes with an accessory set for both.


Our youngest daughter was going to help take down Christmas but her DH is sick, not Covid and she doesn’t want to risk bringing it here. The next two weekends she is already booked so I will have to do it alone. It may take all week, but I’m not willing to risk injuring myself again by pushing it too hard.

So I’ll be doing that and doing some payables this weekend.

Got my weight posted this morning, but not my goals. But for the first time in about 2 weeks starting to feel better. The boil on my back has spread .. it is about 5 x 5 infected area .. so sore. So I have not been wearing a bra, as the strap irritates it even more. I am on round 2 of antibiotics, so praying the infection clears up. But at least the pain is better, and I am able to sleep.
So today I've been sewing up .. projects I started years ago.. just trying to finish them up. I will probably donate to a charity, but at least I can get them out of here. One was going to be a quilt.. decided to turn it into a table runner instead.
food wise I did OK, except had a bowl of ice cream tonite.
@snowflake... I love the ceramics you are starting! I used to do that years ago and just loved it! But I have trouble finding places where I could go to do it. Maybe this spring/summer I might look further into doing this. I had made myself one of those ceramic xmas trees .. and got rid of it. How I would give anything to have it back .. they are back in style. Not sure why I got rid of it .. must have been in one of my throw away moods.
Goals for tomorrow will be simple.. but I may start getting on here with hourly goals like @more_freggies76 does . I think it would help me.
JFT, Sat
1. log all food
2. concentrate on water
3. plan meals. Right now, I think I am making beef/brownrice casserole... but that may change
4. plan snacks: apple, bowl of cereal, or bowl of cottage cheese. Nothing else

Morning all.

@mytime6630 glad the pain is better and hoping the infection clears.

@snowflake1968 you are so creative! Definitely be careful taking down all the Christmas stuff, it’s not worth an injury.

@Bex953172 - hope you enjoyed your takeaway!

@AJB1014 -Hi! Good to see you.

@PackerFanInGB - I totally agree. It’s so difficult not to get down in cold, winter months. Trying new recipes and ideas is a good plan. I’m going to try and find some time for non food rewards as well. Money is a little tight so I don’t know what that would be - face masks/pampering or something??

I’ve had a positive start to the weekend. I kept my running every day in January streak going. No work today so I could run later in the morning when it’s light and go outside instead of treadmill. It was windy and rainy but I did it - yay! Now to manage the rest of the weekend and not fall into too much grazing.

Have a lovely weekend all. X

Cancelling some regular Saturday tasks and events. If I make it to the gym today, I'll be surprised. I need to get control in my household, so a day at home may be just the ticket. We'll see.


Here goes another day!! 😉👍

Yesterday we took a drive cross country to check on the house of BiL who is visiting his daughter/granddaughter in Potsdam, USA. There was a coating of snow on the hill he lives on.
