            Good day yesterday and have done my workout this morning so hoping for another good day. Ex mother in law is coming for a visit and sleepover this evening though and that will be a bit stressful. She’s lovely but it always gets a bit emotional. She tends to get upset, apologising for her son leaving, saying how much she misses me etc. Must not allow this to get to me as I know she means well.
 Wednesday goals
 - morning workout ✅
 - Leave by 10 to go to council office re parking permit (stupid issue still rumbling on)
 - Recycling centre
 - Lunch out with kids and grocery shopping
 - Change sheets and laundry
 - Cook healthy meal for MIL
 - Stay mindful, do not get emotional!
 - Re-read 2019 goals (want to keep this on every day to stay focussed)
 - Focus on water today
 Hope those returning to work today have an ok day and ease back in. Kind of dreading it next week but also weirdly keen to get some routine back. X3

            I’m so glad to have stumbled upon this thread. I lost weight with MFP a few years ago. Since then I had two children, and am now trying to lose the extra “baby” weight (although my youngest is 19 months old).
 My goal is to be conscious of the foods I eat, no bored snacking. And to work out/walk 4 days a week or more. (I have 3 very busy work days so I am accounting for those).
 My goal for 2019 is to be the very best version of myself. 💗4

 I'm Hannah. I'm 30 years old. I've been a part of this group since 2017. When I joined I weighed 183lbs. 3 years before I weighed 105. A mix of finding love, getting married, and quitting smoking helped put the weight on. That and a slowing metabolism. I lost my job in October of 2017. I was able to really focus on weight loss at that point. I got a new, sedentary job in March of 2018. Over the last 9 months I put on 15 of the 30lbs I lost last winter.
 I have 2 goals for next year...
 1. Lose 30lbs
 2. Finish the rough draft of my novel
 That's the only two big things I want to accomplish this year!
 Onto simple goals for today...
 JFT, 1-1-19(how weird!!!)

 Had a great day yesterday. Worked on my outline, read a bunch, spent time with the DH. It was fun.
 Back to work today. Really don't want to go. But MG comes back from her vacation today! I can't wait! I've missed her so much. I hate when I'm the only teller. It'll be awesome to see her again! AND I FINALLY get a break again AND I'll get to leave early too!

            As introduction, my name is Tami, and I live in Tennessee, but have a tiny little vacation place in Florida, so that is where I am today. My heaviest weight in my life was 213, but I lost down to a fairly steady 193ish for a while. Got back on MFP when we bought this little place two years ago (my hubby was diagnosed with cancer and it has always been a dream of his to have a place down here, so we bit the bullet!) Until November, I had been in maintenance at around 146 and was very happy there. I am starting the New Year at 152 and I want to get back into maintenance where I was before the holidays. Beyond that, I don't know if I will want to try to lose another 5 or 10 or not, but I'm thinking about it. We will see.
 Oh, btw, I'm 59 years old and one of my big goals the last year or so is to hit my 60th birthday at the healthiest I've ever been in my life! I have until June 1 to see how much better I can be.
 JFT goals for Wednesday (1/2/19):
 1. Stay in the green.
 2. Drink 10 cups of water.
 3. Increase my protein and vegetable intake.
 4. Get in a bike ride.
 5. Go for a walk or maybe a kayak.
 6. Eat only while sitting down.
 7. No alcohol. (Think I'll do without for January.)6
- 
            Goals for today:
 1. Read Bible
 2. Log every bite
 3. Do some type of exercise (bike, treadmill, take the dog for a walk, etc.)
 4. Last day before I go back to work so enjoy - read a little
 5. Drink more water

            My goodness - so many posts here after one day. I'm not going to be able to read everything all the time. I hope it's ok if I just maybe comment on other people's posts once in a while. I think last time I tried posting here - I got too overwhelmed - LOL.

            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). Saturday a.m. weigh-in is my MFP logging day, and I peek occasionally other days. My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale. No goal dates set ~ this is not a diet but my lifestyle.

 5 Fruits and Veggies

 Well yesterday was really off track food wise, but I had fun with just Michaela for a little bit while Rodger, Ryan and Jonah went to a movie. Jonah had asked for 3 tickets to see the new Spider-Man. Santa left them at our house for him. 🙂. I decided to drive into the city to meet Rodger so we could do something on the way home. I wanted to go to Michael’s to have a look at things for my Cricut. I told Michaela what we were doing and she was so excited. She said “I get Nutcracker” (she is obsessed and has 2 larger ones and a set of 6 tree ornaments). I told her no that she has Nutcrackers. She says, “not in my hands”! We got to Michael’s and were both disappointed to find them closed.
 I did nothing last night except binge watch the Big Bang Theory season that has aired so far. Today I am off to return some pjs I bought Rodger for Christmas, stopping at Michaels. Then the kids come today. I also need to buy a birthday gift for Michaela and possibly make a cake. She will be 3 tomorrow.
