Then to the farmers market and to pick up Tim’s bike from the shop. Home doing laundry and cleaned the kitchen. Might squeeze in a nap while the jeans dry. Mmmmm… nap.

JFT Saturday 30th
- Log all food ✔️
- Water (min 6) ❌
- Exercises (not decided what I'm gonna do today yet)❌
- No bedtime snacking today❌
Well what an awful day. It went so bad from start to finish. Firstly I woke up at 11am! And had to apologize for the girls because they must've of been hungry. They were pretty sweet about it though, think that's just a bit of mum guilt.
And I dunno why but I felt completely miserable all day. For no reason. That's just how I was for the day. Didn't wanna sit with anyone, talk to anyone, didnt want to make food or wash. Think I finally just hit my breaking point. And I broke. Today I'm much better. Feel full of energy and ready to go.
But needless to say, ash tried cheering me up, we watched films together and he didn't wind me up at all. And this is where the diet went wrong. We ordered McDonalds. Then I had potato wedges for tea.
Although I knew I didn't have it in me to cook healthy, I still felt so guilty about wrecking my diet.
And it gets even more crazy because I didn't actually go over my allowance?!?!
I have about 20 calories left.
So I think I just about got away with that one but I want to be healthy eating all day, I know I was within my calories but I filled myself with ¢r@p food.
JFT Sunday
- Log all food
- Water (6 min.)
- Healthy choices
- Exercise
2 -
Hour commitment - I won’t eat again until DH wants lunch0
-
It’s only noon but I think I just give up for today. Ongoing GI issues mean I have no appetite again - just nausea. My doctor referred me to a specialist in April but they keep shifting my appointment so I still haven’t been seen. Finally asked for a new referral and now I can’t get that place to call me back either. So yeah, my weight gain goals aren’t going so great and no one seems to care. I’ll gladly take any extra pounds that people are trying to lose…2

Hour commitment - shared ice cream and a hot dog. Now I won’t eat again until dinner with DH. Can still have metamusal when get back to room0

Scale goals
End of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
End of 2019: 196.4
End of 2020: 187.4
End of 2021: 194.4
Today: 211.6
Ongoing plans/ideas
1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for GR purchase list.
2. E2: Find a way to incorporate changing words from one part of speech to another. Students need to know how to review multiple sources and synthesize information in order to draw a conclusion. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
4. Curriculum Development: Writing mini-unit. Review scholarly research on 5PE. (I think I can have this as an intro to the research unit so that they also get exposure to how quotes are integrated and cited.) Parallel structure; use of emotional language, specific detail. Use "Write About a Pebble" lesson from Atwell. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to discussion board for comments due Friday. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri. Unit plan for research (Idea for regular: comparing same story on sites with different biases).
5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week - Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals. Look into publishing and literacy doctoral programs.
6. Medical: Dentist July 11 10 AM. PCP Oct 21 10:30 TEL. Therapy 7/28 8A. Obgyn Oct 14 12:45.
7. Theater: Read play for discussion August 16 7P.
8. House: Siding. Or perhaps bathroom floor. How to remove cement.
9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy bike rack for car.
10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter. Community Kitchen. Emerge Georgia training.
11. Family: Book group. Dinners?
12. Writing: Blog post: Running, Racism and Rum: Learning to Handle Discomfort. Fanfic: Create a scene list for the Batgirl story. Finish the cafe scene for the Titans story.
13. Lifting: 15 squats, 15 deadlifts, 10 shoulder presses, 15 arm raises, 10 pushups, 30 crunches, 15 side lifts, 15 back kicks. Horse stance for 5 breaths, tree for 10 breaths each leg.
14. Summer: Organize photos with the family. Write Clois. Write Stuffy and Friends. Create blog posts for video lessons.
15. Other: Practice hair braiding with D. Remind D to ask his dad about the table and check with home repair contractors. 3 posts/week? Create test for MLA format. Create test for infographics and visual information. Remember that M does not like surprises! Check dates of classes and update semester plan. She Should Run vision statement. Update standards on board. When to change bulletin board? Indochino suit fitting - Atlanta or Nashville?

Sorry to hear youre struggling to weight gain! We care! thanks for sharing. I really hope they sort it soon, I hate it when they send you from pillar to post.
I'd gladly give you my extra lbs if I could!
I'm struggling to get rid of them and you're struggling to gain them! Why does everything have to be a struggle!
I've been dieting all week and gained a pound. Wanted to smash my scales this morning. Feel like all my effort was for nothing. I even exercised! And I've not properly exercised for a good year or so!
Hope you're okay! Keep trying your best, it's all we can do xx2 -
JFT Sunday

Right well..yesterday was just rubbish. I was within my calories....I think. Didn't really measure properly yesterday.
But today's a new day, a new week, I gained a lb apparently. Could be cause I didn't drink enough water?
Could some one please explain how water affects weight? I do know but I always forget.
JFT Monday

- Water (min. 6)

Long day of meetings with corporate big wigs... A little intimidating, but it is what it is. Other than that, I just feel kind of crappy, my weight is up a tick, and I'm sure it's from my cycle, but it still sucks to see it on the scale... No real evening plans today. Leftovers for dinner so no cooking and minimal clean up (yea!).

JFT Monday
- Log all food ✔️
- Water (min. 6)✔️ 8
- Exercise ✔️
Good day again by lunchtime I had burnt all but 90 calories off. Leaving plenty of room for dinner and snacks. Ended the day at 1200 calories with 300 burned off (approx)
And my snacks were healthy. The only unhealthy thing really was the hotdogs I had for dinner but I put two hotdogs in one bun 😂 and they were pretty decent hotdogs. Not the cheap ones.
Exercise was running to the supermarket in the town centre which took me 6 mins to get there. And power walk back
(It's downhill there and uphill back 😂😂) and then park and walk with the kids.
JFT Tues 2 Aug
- Cancel hair appointments for kids, did it for the wrong day
- Ring disability
- Log all Food
- Water
- Rest day so no exercise3 -
Goals for today: drink 48 oz of water and log all food. Hormones are making me feel extremely ill so I probably won’t be able to make any progress towards gaining weight, but maybe the deficit won’t be too bad. I don’t want to keep going backwards 😞3
-
We finally got some rain yesterday and are expecting more this week - good for the garden! It also takes watering off my chore list. This week I need to focus on getting the house in shape for visitors and making some space for my son's stuff. The rents in NJ are much higher than what he's been paying in NC, and his partner is still looking for a job, so even if he finds a place quickly it's likely to be smaller than the two-bedroom townhouse he's been in. But no complaints - we're so excited to have him living closer to us.
We've also got our annual summer party a week from Saturday after a two-year break due to Covid. We're keeping it on the smaller side, but we'll still be putting up 10 people for the weekend, so lots to do. I guess I'll be getting my exercise by doing chores this week.
I haven't been logging, but I'm trying to focus on simple, healthy meals. It's too easy to fall back into bad habits when I'm busy.

Happy Monday y'all!
Yesterday was good. Work sucked, but long meetings always do. The meetings at least went well. Then when I got home Tim and I took Sierra shopping for a few things for her apartment. We got a vacuum, some nice knives, some hangers and a handful of little things. It was nice to hang out with her other than just sitting around the house.
Skipping some of the meetings this morning, just so I can go to other meetings, but at least I'm not sitting in the room full of people trying desperately to stay awake. Teaching spin after work today. A little nervous about that, but I'm sure it will be fine. It's hard when I've been keeping my calories low to muster up the energy for an intense class. Maybe I'll eat an extra mini meal before I go to get a little boost. Other than that, not much else planned for today. Should probably cook dinner. Thinking turkey burgers for me and hamburgers for the others. not sure what sides to make. I'm living on the low carb end of things, but I can still make fries or tater tots for the gang along with a veggie or salad. Sounds like I'm going to the grocery after spin class... Or we could have breakfast for dinner. Then I don't need to go to the grocery.
