    I just want to say that each and every one of you are doing so well!
    I must admit I feel like I'm dragging behind you all but im hoping to get back on track this week!

    Theres been a few things that have really affected my progress recently, I think the whole drama over New Year has really threw me, I dont feel like I got that fresh start! even though it's all sorted now. well mostly, the idea of moving house is making me anxious, I'm pretty sure any house moved would be nerve racking, I'm just concerned about timing it right so we get a house within our months notice or worse being offered a house before we've paid up this one!
    Also, Casey. Little cute Casey. I do love her, and love how she's so attached to me when the other two have been traitors and been Daddy girls! but the little thing cries when she so much as sees her bed, so I have to get her to sleep before I take her up, but she doesn't want to sleep she wants to PLAY! and it can take up til 10pm fir her to finally drift

    Bex you are a strong, strong woman. I don’t know how you aren’t curled up in a corner sobbing some days but yet here you are supporting all of us, giving us encouragement, kudos, sympathy or joy. You make me laugh, you make me think, you teach me and you make me remember.

    You make me remember being a young Mom and feeling taken advantage of, having the never ending laundry and meals and dishes. Then throw in the dreaded bedtime routine and you just want to scream. I hated bedtime, still do when I keep the Grands. I’m not going to tell you you’ll miss this someday, I’ll tell you you’ll get through it and before you know it, you’ll be the 50 year old truly enjoying a young Mom in your social group.

    Thanks for always taking the time to come and say hi and tell us how your day is going, I always look for your posts and say a little prayer your day is going well when I don’t see you.

    ah I needed to hear this, sometimes I think I'm not doing enough!!
    thank you for your prayers, that's so kind xx

    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    Today: 188.8

    Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut
    1. Go to Mac store and see if they can retrieve the files off the iMac. Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding.
    2. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used: Animal Farm, Julius Caesar, Wes Moore, I Am Malala. 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. Regular: needs practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me).
    3. Connect standards to assignments and include them in titles and in gradebook and lessons.
    4. Develop 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. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts.
    5. Write next blog post. Comment on 3 posts each week -Tu Th Sun? Barn order: stapler, pencil sharpener
    6. Keep track of medical stuffs. Dentist? Also Feb 7 9:30 w Ac Int. Sub already set up. Apr 22 McC. Need sub. Call to set up checkups with Dass (October). GET MAGAZINES FOR COLLAGES FROM DOCTORS.
    7. Take recycling to center. Wash car.
    8. Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Can poetry unit be condensed?
    9. Go to used bookstore and look for Design for How People Learn (Julie Dirksen), On Writing (Stephen King), Dying for a Paycheck (Robin Hardman), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, Harvey Mansfield, or Robert Adams). Check on alternate translations for The Prince.

    Got the essay done. Lots of grading today. May try to take my quiz tonight.

    80 new posts! Busy ~ I'll have to read later.

    Very busy weekend at home & about. I went to the winter market Sat. and we enjoyed watching the super blood moon eclipse last night. No dog walks since roads are slippery with compacted snow & temps are below zero with wind chill, so I walked 3 miles on the basement treadmill Sat. & Sun. Didn't keep my net calories zero last three days, closest was Sat. at -28 and Fri/Sun were RED. :s Starting fresh on Monday.

    JFT 1/21 M ~ Rest day. Hubby has federal holiday off (I don't) so he will be home when I get off work ~ yay. We have no definite plans, including dinner.
    1) Move hourly / stairs breaks at work / 5 somethings
    2) Breakfast, lunch & snacks prelogged / wise choices for supper / net calories w/i 100 green / 14c water
    3) Update JFT w/i post
    4) Evening: enjoy hubby time <3
    5) Floss / retainers / set/verify early alarm, bed & tv off 10:30

    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.

    Age 61, 5'4.5"
    GW #1: 150 in a livable way = It's. Not. A. Diet.
    GW #2: 145 normal BMI
    UG maintain: 145 - 150 [Need to be realistic! Revised from 140 - 145]

    11/5/15 = 195.0 joined MFP with no real plan except It's. Not. A. Diet.

    I had never applied this to weight loss but it truly is a quote I can embrace these days. Thank you for sharing it.

    "DISCIPLINE"[/i]. Because I know that is what I need ... the discipline to do mindful eating, the discipline to look up calories ahead of time, the discipline to get to the gym regularly, the discipline to drink my water, and the discipline to never give up.[/i][/b]

    Every year from Halloween until New Years I seem to gain weight. It is a combination of seasonal depression/ missing loved ones (having lost 4 of my siblings who I was very close to), and just missing the big family get togethers. Upset with myself, but I feel uncontrollable in this ... this is one of my main goals to learn this new year.

    Year 2019

    January 1, 2019: 206
    Jan 7: 204.6
    Jan 14: 201.0 -- I know this may not be accurate since prepping for my colonoscopy yesterday. (But hoping maybe at least a 1 lb loss???)
    Jan 21: 207.0 -- Definitely NOT how I want to start the new year. Too much orange juice last week, not getting to the gym, just not caring. Time to restart my brain!




    Non-scale related goals 2019:
    1. learn how to stop/control binge eating
    2. learn how to manage stress/emotional eating
    3. keep up a gratitude journal everyday
    4. consistently learn and be better at planning meals for the week .... make this a regular thing to do
    5. consistently continue with exercising 5x a week. Be more confident in how I look.
    6. make drinking water a daily habit ... not something I have to work at.
    7. Reach my goal weight .... then learn how to maintain it!! -- DO not gain weight at the end of the year!



    Weight goals 2019:
    Feb: 200
    March: 195
    April: 190 -- 1st Mini Goal in time for our 43rd wedding anniversary!!
    May: 185
    June: 180 -- 2nd mini goal
    July: 175-- 4th of July party at our sons
    August: 170 -- GOAL REACHED!!!!

    Hey everyone!

    Hope you're all having a good start to the Monday. I'm already almost 64 ounces in, apparently I'm thirsty today! Hopefully that will help get my back to behave more too. Still hurting like a you-know-what. Plan to walk at the gym after work today though. Moving seems to be helping it somewhat.

    Did you injure yourself? I had pain in my back for years and finally am free of it but it sure did put a damper in everything I tried to do! Hope you feel better soon! xoxo

    @mytime6630 I have often thought about ordering a keyboard. I don't know how to play but always wanted to play piano. Have fun with that! I missed @toaljasa's comment about treating calories like a checkbook. That's a great way to think of it, isn't it? Very insightful!

    @Snowflake1968 25 squats! That's awesome! Perhaps I need a little sign too... 🙂 Oh, and I agree about the Masked Singer! LOL! It's really a weird show and I'm not really sure what the point of it is...like do they win something at the end? But I sit riveted trying to figure out who everyone is! I think the Lion's voice sounds like Jennifer Lopez but I'm pretty sure she has other better things to do with her time. Ha! LOVE the Fairy Wishes and Goodnight Kisses!!! You are so talented!

    @maryrobinson40 LOVE the flowers! Fresh flowers in the winter in Wisconsin are such a welcome sight! Also love your goals and totally agree with @frenchfancy2014 about your list of all the great things go did do yesterday! Love your list.

    @Lastchancetochange Great goals!

    @Bex953172 I agree with @toaljasa and @Snowflake1968 . You are a rock star! I also remember how tough it was having 3 little ones. I had 3 little ones under the age of 3. It was just plain overwhelming and bedtime was THE WORST! Everything Snowflake said is right on the money. Just remember, time goes by pretty quickly and things are always changing in life. Before you know it, they'll all be in school and you won't know what to do with all the time on your hands! xoxoxo (P.S. I got the binding for the quilt cut last night...start sewing it on tonight)

    I have not been on here much for the past 3 days -- and I know I have a lot of posts to catch up on. Beating myself up ... yes, my weight is up, but my own fault. Too much orange juice last week, little activity, and really, just not caring anymore. But I do care, and thats when I want to just give up, and say, "I;m not that overweight". I had a good friend that told me I look great, and she said, I would rather be happy ... so she said she is choosing to be happy. (She is 50 pounds overweight). I have a hubby that tells me not to worry about it... and encourages me NOT to go to the gym so much ... his words. ... I only need to go once or twice a week. A part of my brain tells me I am going to be 68, so why do I worry. I can walk faster and longer than any of my friends. I get more done in a day than many of my friends ... who are mostly retired, and sit around all day watching TV.I feel healthy ... yet, I know I would feel better if I lost 30 pounds.

    I remember how much better I felt at 175 pounds. (Hubby tells me it is because I was younger .. see.. a answer for everything). And while a part of him might be right, how will I know until I get there.

    SO I am starting out this week with a new resolve. I know, I know .... I have said this a million times. But I am putting it in writing, and have to keep reminding myself everyday.

    SO my goals for today are simple again
    1. LOG ALL FOOD -- no matter what. Every single little bit, snack, even a few grapes that I eat
    2. STOP eating when I have reached my calorie limit.
    3. mindful eating
    4. eat slowly ... enjoy it, don't just gobble it down without thinking
    5. use my distraction list when I want to eat ... wait 10 minutes
    6. brush/floss teeth tonite after my last snack
    7. concentrate on water = 8+ glasses


    I have a lot of reading to do to catch up on all the posts ... and will do that tonite. But I am so very grateful for all of you... you are all my inspirations!

    HI everyone!

    I really struggle to log on lately. My husband feels ignored if I go home from work and log onto my computer instead of chat with him (even though he is watching TV or napping), and it's really hard to do it at work during breaks because of the nature of my job. What I really need to do is get up a bit earlier in the morning and list my progress and goals before I even come to work. I would really like to get up an hour earlier every day. I really struggle getting up in the mornings, especially now they have me taking a medication that is supposed to help me sleep better at night and help get rid of the headaches I wake up with ever since I hit my head. It works great for both those things, but it exhausts me to the point that I still do not feel awake and it is 12:15 pm already!

    Any advice on how to get up earlier and not hit snooze 6 times would be GREATLY appreciated! Seriously. I just can't seem to do it.

    I didn't log anything this weekend really because I spent a lot of my weekend actually hanging out with my husband and I wanted to be in the present moment with him. It was so nice! We went to Kroll's for a fish fry on Friday night (yeah...no calories in THAT meal :anguished: ) and Saturday and Sunday we went "treasure hunting" at local thrift shops. He likes to look for tools and antiques, and I just like to look at it all. Saturday morning I took my daughter out for brunch for her birthday. That was 2 hours and didn't seem like nearly enough time with her.

    Anyhoo....

    Just for Monday | 1/21/2019
    1. Drink half my weight in ounces of water. (90 oz)
    2. Journal every single bite that goes into my mouth, even if it’s a candy mint
    3. Pay attention to consuming half my weight in grams of protein (90 g) and eating less carbs
    4. Activity: Walk for 30 minutes either outside, treadmill or maybe a Body Groove video. "Move it Monday!"
    5. Eat at least 2 servings of fruits and 3 servings of veggies today.
    6. Prep for tomorrow, tonight
    7. Keep my attitude light and positive. Do not feed into gossip. Walk away.
    8. Give myself credit for things I get right instead of focusing on things I do wrong.
    9. Unplug one hour early / Joyce or Dodie / Simple Abundance / Gratitude Journal / Calm meditation app

    Word for 2019: Tenacity
    When it comes to regaining my health and taking back my life, I will have the tenacity of a bulldog with a bone.

    I had a fairly decent day yesterday. Started a project for Lauryn’s Birthday present. It’s quite detailed and I’m not sure I’ll be able to do it, but I’m going to try.

    Tried doing some more dancing than walking last night for my 45 minutes. Need to get on the losing train again, the stall here is bugging me!

    1/21 Day 14 2 weeks! I have already prelogged my supper so I thought to come here early. I even have about 300 cal left over for a snack. Will see what I do with them. Today I am celebrating being here for 2 weeks! I know, a small thing for people who have faithfully logged for years but hey, gotta start somewhere.

    I’m sure we all celebrated two weeks too! It’s a commitment that works.

    Sorry failed to post this morning and today has gone in a whirl

    Best I can say is that some time this week I will do be better but probably not tomorrow or Wednesday! Thursday is not looking good either as it will be a recovery day after a long journey!

    Think I drank more water today and did what I needed to do for work. I'm on leave Wednesay onwards and I'm looking forward to it, just a very long journey from the early hours of Wednesday.

    Tomorrow I will do my best to drink water and meet work commitments.

    @ZizzyBumble You drank more water today and did what you needed to do for work! Those are both very important goals and you reached them! There are many days I don't reach either one of those goals...

    Keep up the positive steps! :)
