    Thank you so much! Your comment helped me do it despite the little voice in my head saying otherwise! Wooohooo!!

    I'm glad my words were of encouragement <3 That's what it's all about.

    Your wedding dress is just beautiful! I’m so glad that decision is made. I had a small wedding (35 years ago yesterday <3 ) and remember the many details and much thought that goes into everything! May the force be with you my Dear and may your special day turn into may special years, especially when the going gets rough.

    Recapping the weekend for my accountability along with my jft goals. Will catch up on reading posts later.

    4) Evening: Sam's Club (rotisserie chicken? socks, chocolate) :smiley: / decorate :/ / declutter 15 min. :smiley: / read Sunday ads :D started but Kitty climbed into my lap for cuddle / wash dishes :smiley: / card & cash for newspaper carrier :smiley:

    2) Walk dog (roads s/b ok) = After several weeks of below normal temps and icy roads, we had gorgeous sunny day & above normal temps, ice gone (mostly) from roads & walked dog 4.31 mi 1:14:59 & happy dog B) & happy me B)

    Weekly Weigh-In = When I'm active I eat back calories. My weaknesses: I love food... my sweet tooth, especially chocolate... portion control... FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). I no longer weigh myself daily but I peek occasionally. Saturday a.m. weigh-in is my MFP logging day. My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. No goal dates set ~ I get there when I get there!

    Age 61, 5'4.5"
    GW #1: 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    GW #2: 145 normal BMI

    I had a more or less weekend. I couldn’t travel to my Mom’s b/c I was still under the weather so I stayed home and did a fair amount of house work including the unpacking of 3 of the many boxes that we still have cluttering one of our rooms from the move :( .

    As a rule, I don’t exercise during the weekend to give myself a break from the week's routine. Granted, I wasn’t feeling well but I realized that I don’t get too many additional exercise calories back and it’s harder for me to weather the weekends. Sooo, I have decided that come next weekend, what I’ll do is change the workout but still commit to exercising on the weekend so that I can eat back my calories and enjoy the weekend with my husband. I’ve got other exercise videos that I can do so that I can leave Jessica Smith workouts for the week and do something different on Saturday and Sunday. Change is good. I overate only a little bit on Saturday; yesterday was OK b/c I had dental work done on Thursday and my tooth was sensitive so that kept my eating at bay.

    I have to say I’m very proud of myself for resisting the Almond Roccas that I bought to give out as presents! I’ve been using the Beck mental techniques and they really work. What works best for me is Imagining the Aftermath of giving in and reading my Advantages to Losing Weight card (I actually have this on my phone for easy access). I’m totally dissuaded by the image of savoring that first bite but going overboard, eating the whole packet and then feeling miserable both physically and emotionally. Works like a charm! OK, maybe having a sore mouth helped a little but I do think my resistance muscle is getting a tad stronger and I’ll take that any day.

    I weighed in and according to the scale I gained .2 lbs but I measured myself and actually lost a little bit here and there so that was reassuring. I just read this morning in the Beck book that I can’t expect to lose weight every week and some of your posts indicate the same so I’m OK with that. I’ll just stay on track on trust that eventually the weight will come off. For the first time in all the diets I’ve been on, I’m in no rush and want to focus on JFT. Thank y’all for keeping me on track. The best collective diet coach ever! <3 . Soooo,

    JFT Monday, 12/17/18

    Read my Advantages to Losing Weight card before each meal
    Give myself credit at least 3 times

    @Bex953172 - I hope all the sickness leaves your house soon and you have time to get rested before Christmas excitement takes over.

    @HEGoddard0928 - unfortunately yesterday was worse than Saturday, but I made mostly what I spent on Christmas gifts at the show. I am really hoping now that this Friday’s will be incredible!

    @slittlemeister - a second interview is promising. Remember as important as the financial portion is, job fulfillment and life balance is just as important.

    @cschmidt - I think it was you that told me how important rest days are, glad to see you take one.

    I know there was more I wanted to say to people and now can’t remember. I am not enjoying catching up on my phone vs a computer.

    @AJB1014 Lovely dress! You look so happy in the pics too.

    @clicketykeys Sorry for the news about the conference. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw you had volunteer ushered on top of everything else you do. That sounds like fun.

    @Faebert Sounds like it was a fun party! Sorry about the row w/ bf. Give yourself a break, you've been packing so much into each day ~ maybe a rest day is called for.

    @Snowflake1964 Sorry for the slow sales day ~ hope things picked up for you.

    @slittlemeister Congrats on the second interview! Best wishes ~ may it be what you are looking for.

    To all JFTers: Hope you have a good day!

    JFT - Monday December 17
    2L of water
    Calories in Green
    Only 1 Evening Snack
    5 something at bathroom break
    5 fruit/veggie
    Walk 1 mile
    Write in Journal
    Be Conscious of my choices! Do not disappoint myself!

    I just got up at 930! I don’t know how that happened! Today I have to make my ladders or at least get the rungs painted. I have to cut out the felt for a stocking for my son in law and start working on that. My daughter has ran out of hours to get it done.

    I bought a dolls cradle for Michaela at the craft fair yesterday, so Lauryn is bringing me her sewing machine so I can make bedding for it. This cradle is made by prisoners in the local prison and then sold by the Christmas Bureau. That had a table full of gorgeous toys all reasonably priced and 100% of the money goes to help those that need it in the community. This year the Christmas Bureau is helping 62000 families in the Edmonton area. That says a lot about our economy.

    At 4 I have to go meet a friend to deliver something I picked up for her and get my money back. Sometime in there I need to clean the craft room so I can set up the drying rack and do a load of laundry!

    Woohoo only one week to go and then I will have time and energy to get back to exercising!

    I haven't dropped off face of the earth. Still dealing with after effects of concussion. Getting migraines every day at work, having difficulty seeing my computer screen and just plain getting through the day right now. Seeing a doctor at the Concussion Clinic on Thursday so hopefully they'll be able to help me manage this better.

    I'll be back on posting goals as soon as I am dealing better with the headaches. I think of you all daily and hope everyone is doing well. (((BIG HUGS))) :flowerforyou:

    @cschmitz110515 - Ehhhhhhhh ushering isn't THAT big a deal. Takes up most of the evening, but it's nice, because it's not an ongoing commitment! Plus, I get to see the play without paying $20-30 for a ticket.

    @mytime6630 Awesome loss! I'm soo proud of you!

    @Snowflake1968 I'm hoping that this upcoming show is more magnificent than you imagine! Good luck!

    @PackerFanInGB Feel better soon! But take all the time you need! I know about concussions. Matt has had many of them and now suffers from Post Concussion Syndrome. If you have any questions feel free to PM me. If I don't know the answer or have a suggestion I can always ask him. Lol.

    @Bex953172 I hope the babes are feeling better!

    I have been missing getting on here ... but really, really trying to watch what I eat. I keep reminding myself of how awful I will feel if I give in and eat junk food. Trying to drink a lot of water in the evenings. Yesterday it was so nice outside ... I walked over 7 miles! Walked for 2.5 hours! Not what I had intended to do ... and my legs hurt so bad when I got back. But .. it was fun!

    So ... tonite is a challenge in that I am making cookies !!! But I have my glass of water (and a diet sunkist orange drink)!!!

    I finally finished all my christmas sewing ..... 5 tote bags made for ladies, 3 small tote bags for little ones, 3 reading pillows .... 8 embroidered towels! I still have 3 reading pillows I want to make yet, and another tote bag for a friend ... but those can wait. Why I wait until November to start christmas sewing!

    Our son loves the decorated sugar cookies, so that is what I am making. then.. hubby... who told me not to bake anything at all this year ... wants chocolate chip cookies! So the chocolate chip cookies are in the oven. Hubby will take these over to a friends on wednesday, and those, along with most of the sugar cookies, will go to Michigan when we visit our son next weekend. I plan on keeping just a few on hand for Christmas eve.

    Our daughter is here also tonite... but she is laying down. She had a MRI to find out why she has terrible migraine headaches, but the MRI came back as normal. I think her headaches are a result of stress, but I feel bad for her.

    Since I haven't posted my goals... but I have to try and stay accountable.

    So my goals for the rest of tonite are:
    1. Drink water while baking cookies. Remember, one leads to another! Concentrate on just drinking water!!!

    Goals for Tomorrow, Tues, Dec 18
    1. log my food
    2. go to the gym
    3. concentrate on water
    4. bake sugar cookies that are chilled ... do not eat any! Have my water to sip on!!
    5. finish wrapping up christmas gifts
    6. finish sending out cards
    7. stay focused. mindful eating
    8. remember how I want to feel after christmas .... not to gain, and least to maintain. But hoping to get at least 2 more pounds off before January!

    I haven't dropped off face of the earth. Still dealing with after effects of concussion. Getting migraines every day at work, having difficulty seeing my computer screen and just plain getting through the day right now. Seeing a doctor at the Concussion Clinic on Thursday so hopefully they'll be able to help me manage this better.

    I'll be back on posting goals as soon as I am dealing better with the headaches. I think of you all daily and hope everyone is doing well. (((BIG HUGS))) :flowerforyou:

    So sorry you are dealing with the migranes. My daughter also suffers from migraines a lot. She has had 3 concussions, and we think those are a cause, but her MRI came out ok. But so debilitating. I hope you feel better soon. But we all miss you, and sending you lots of hugs!

    I have to say I’m very proud of myself for resisting the Almond Roccas that I bought to give out as presents! I’ve been using the Beck mental techniques and they really work. What works best for me is Imagining the Aftermath of giving in and reading my Advantages to Losing Weight card (I actually have this on my phone for easy access). I’m totally dissuaded by the image of savoring that first bite but going overboard, eating the whole packet and then feeling miserable both physically and emotionally. Works like a charm! OK, maybe having a sore mouth helped a little but I do think my resistance muscle is getting a tad stronger and I’ll take that any day
    You are doing GREAT with the Beck techniques!! This is the one that I have been using the most ... to think of the aftermath if I give in to eating. So proud of you! Keep it up!

    It was rank. Lol I'm not even sure the dog was sure about it!
    Thats probably the last time we be adventurous LOL

    No being lazy Bex!!! But I doubt very much that you are lazy ... you are just crazy busy!!
    I have NEVER tried pigeon ... I didn't think people ate pigeon???? You are much braver than I am!

    I had a crazy but productive day yesterday. Keeping busy to distract myself from boyfriend woes and racing to get all the Christmas stuff done while working full time. Nearly there! I went shopping after work and bought all the stocking fillers and a gift for my assistant. Had an excellent day food and fitness wise as well. Reset after a terrible weekend and hoping to stay on track now until Christmas. Annoyed though as my Fitbit strap snapped so I am not getting the mental boost of seeing quite how much activity I’m getting (nor the calorie adjustment!)

    Today I am expecting a new belt buckle to be delivered. My annoying boyfriend said all he wanted for Christmas was for his favourite belt to be repaired. If the buckle arrives I’ll head to the shop to get it fitted. Not sure he deserves it as we aren’t talking but hopefully things will be resolved.Otherwise my plan is to wrap gifts, play Christmas music and try and stay cheerful.
