Well, it's my turn....i though I posted today's goals, but they disapeared...or I dreamed that I posted it....
Did good on saturday, but I wasn't feeling well and didn't exercise. Went over just a bit on calories.
Today I did well, also. Went jogging with a friend, then spent a couple of hours with another friend showing her how MFP works.
She has been watching my success and asking questions for a long time now, but I think she might start for real now.
Hey Miss B! If you log on and find me. I love you!
Met my goal today to walk and / or jog at least 5 miles today. 11/30
Major NSV for me today. I am wearing size 14 jeans for the first time since about 6th grade!

@bri170lb That happens to me regularly. I tend to forget to hit the post reply button. Well done on the NSV!
@68myra Did you have surgery for your hip? I had mine done on 4th September. Keep up with the PT. it's so worth it!0 -
Ok, so I'm finally getting better although my jaw is still swollen and very sore. Had to go back in to the dentist and the only thing we can figure is some kind of allergic reaction. I'm thinking maybe to the toothpaste they gave me to use after. So, my whole weekend was shot as I was zoned out on painkillers the whole time. Still hurts a bit today but more manageable.
JFT, 11/16

@bri170lb congrats on the NSV!
@TerriRichardson112 no, I have not had hip surgery. x-ray says my bones are fine, all the pain is in soft tissue. i was told i have a muscle imbalance, but that dr.'s advice hasn't solved it. I have a physical therapist (who helped me with tailbone pain earlier) saying my pelvis does not move properly, and she is trying to help me with that.
@shrcpr YIKES! i'm sorry you had to go through that experience. hopefully you are over the hump!
Just for Monday, 11/16

Gee, I guess I should have read my goals today. Maybe I would have remembered to do some of them!
I went jogging in the morning and then sat in my chair and watched movies all day. Ate too much, didn't accomplish much and was bored. All in all, not a very productive day.

1. Remember my goals

LOL-I love this thread!!0 -
Shrcpr-hope you've healed. Maybe an allergic reaction. I seem to be sensitive to everything on my skin. No fun.
For those of us who are healing or having to cope with pain, I hope you get relief soon.
JFT
I'm on track for water. Added 24 oz plus first thing in the am. Head feels clearer.
Need to take a hard look at the processed foods/sugar that I've allowed back into my diet. My joints are already burning & aching.
My son & I are meeting with a nutritionist soon since he's been having stomach problems & needs some guidance. I have a fear that my bad habits will be picked up by him (no matter how hard I try to hide them). It amazes me how I can say the same thing as what the dr is saying but my kids & husband don't hear me & yet they hear the dr. loud & clear LOL.
Walk briskly.
Weight lift.
Prep a healthy supper-extra veggies.
Make a fruit salad.
Pack a bag of food for the church food drive.
Be grateful for how quickly my body responds in a positive way when I eat healthily & practice healthy habits (sleep, exercise, selfcare).

Hi everyone. I'm just here working on goal #1. Don't want to do what I did yesterday and forget to do what I wanted to do!
The following will be a short bout of bitching, moaning, complaining and wallowing in self pity...feel free to skip it...
I'm feeling very BLAH today (TOM) and I'm trying to not eat lunch too early. Mostly I'm bored because it's snowing and work is really slow and I don't want to be here.
So, I'm going to drink more water and do a cross word puzzle, no I'm going to go outside and get some fresh air, then I'll do a crossword puzzle, then I'll have lunch. Then I'll do my least favorite job at work, balancing the checkbooks. I promise!

Ok. I'm back and feeling a little more positive.
I walked down to my daughter's coffee shop and bent her ear with my tale of woe. She made me my regular coffee with just half and half and said she added a tiny spoonful of magic, sparkly cinnamon and sugar. And she said because it was magic I don't have to count the calories!
The very first clue on my puzzle was "to thine own______be true"
My husband went out to get his lunch and brought me back a stuffed bear and told me, "I love you 'beary' much".
