    @bex953172 - Comodore 64
    When our girls were little there were times that we only bought them the Santa gift, one gift from us and their stockings. They got so much from everyone that they never noticed. I took advantage of that as long as I could.

    @AJB1014 - I hope you got some rest today.

    And yea Commodore 64! That's what he had lol!! New it was something like that haha I was close!

    Hey ladies,

    Had a nothing good to eat weekend. I got some stuff done though. I finished cleaning out the cabin finally so Mom can move in and turn it back into her art studio. I know she's really excited about that.

    All of our bills are finally caught up! There's nothing in the red right now. I know talking about finances is taboo but it feels amazing to only have to pay this months as opposed to this months and last months, ya know? And it's the holiday season now so Matt is working a lot of hours so the money should be nice. The problem with my jobs, as much as I love them, is that they are per diem. So if I don't work I don't get paid. But oh well. Lol. I still love my jobs!

    Okay, need to jet! I'll be back later.

    JFT, 11/18/19

    1. Log all food
    2. Drink 64+oz of water
    3. Tidy up laundry

    Well done on getting your bills on track!
    Me and Ash know how hard that one is! We're still paying off a few things BUT we're all up to date with them and you're right it is a good feeling just paying what you owe for that month and no arrears!
    Once you get out that trap you don't really get in it again unless something happens or unexpected cost for something like car repair.
    But it's a nightmare trying to juggle bills isn't it?

    OMG it is! And now that we've moved our rent is more than twice what it was. We're still trying to figure out a new budget for it all.

    Hi all,

    Is there such a thing as a TV-binge hangover? Because I watched quite a lot of TV this week and am feeling run down...on second thought it's probably the staying up late and eating crap that went along with it. It sucks that the motivation and energy you need to get back on track is just what you get AFTER. Anyway, I'm going to focus on what I want to do over how I feel. Hauled out my sun lamp today as the weather has just been miserable here-I need some sort of sun, even if it's artificial!

    Checking in this morning before my day starts. I’m at work and normally start working as soon as I get here, but thought I would take time to do this.

    @HEGoddard0928 - I have been juggling bills for years it is a pain in butt. You always feel broke and you never get ahead. I feel your pain.

    As a matter of fact I have to call a friend today to see if I can borrow 100 to get me through until payday or we’ll be paying NSF fees.

    @littleblackskirt - nice that you had some time with your Grandson. He’s growing fast. I hope you can get more of those days.

    Ok I guess my day should get going. Have a great day everyone.

Net result was that I slept all weekend, and ate poorly when I was up. Didn't weigh in this morning, because I really wasn't up to seeing the damage. Today isn't starting out great, but I haven't given up on it yet.

    Finally successful on rest! Took a nap til noon and kept chores to a minimum. Had to go to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things but that was kind of nice to go by myself and just putz around. I even picked up some nail polish and did my nails! I dont remember the last time i did that! I could definitely use some practice, but the self care felt nice anyway. Back to work today. Cannot believe Thanksgiving is sneaking right up on us! Not terribly stressed about that since were not hosting this year, I knew it would be too much for me being pregnant and I'm thanking myself for it now for sure! I managed to prep two days of salads for both me and DH, but pickings are getting slim for food and i need to really plan the next few days for dinners. But I'm seeing it as a good thing that im actually using up all our groceries not letting anything waste...we rarely ever get thru a large box of spinach and have done it twice now. Its the little victories!

    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. is my MFP weigh-in 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 62, 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.
    1/10/17 = 185.5 clearly not a regular on MFP / joined JFT, best group ever! :smiley:

    08/19 = 173.5 had couple of high calorie days
    08/26 = 172.0 kind of a surprise
    09/02/17 = 170.0 Woohoo! Officially overweight, not obese :smiley:
    09/09 = 171.5 backsliding, ack!

    11/04 = 163.0 wow, really surprised at this, daily fluctuations very up and down this week
    11/11 = 164.5 this is temporary b/c very high sodium yesterday

    Hi all,

    Is there such a thing as a TV-binge hangover? Because I watched quite a lot of TV this week and am feeling run down...on second thought it's probably the staying up late and eating crap that went along with it. It sucks that the motivation and energy you need to get back on track is just what you get AFTER. Anyway, I'm going to focus on what I want to do over how I feel. Hauled out my sun lamp today as the weather has just been miserable here-I need some sort of sun, even if it's artificial!


    Lack of sunlight can make you feel just miserable! I just got put on a high dose of Vitamin D and I think I'm going to start tanning again. I can feel my mood go down when the sun does! It's going to be a long winter. I've had the TV-Binge hangover before...it sucks! LOL! xoxo

    Was sick all weekend, fighting off a cold. So, didn't make very good choices! Planning to go to bed early tonight also. Counting the minutes until I'm done with work today.

    I started a work challenge today. It runs from 11/18 through 12/22. Any employee who wants to participate can register. Basically, we need to get 150 minutes of exercise every week between these dates, and if we succeed, we are entered into a drawing to win PTO (vacation days)! C'monnnnn Tracie! :smile:

    Monday 18 November

    Log accurately :)
    Stay in the green :)
    5 fruit and veg :)
    Water :)
    Fitbit exercise goals :)
    Attend to Happy scale trend - eat below maintenance. :) Lost 0.2 kg in last 7 days. First time in 6 weeks that I’ve not shown a gain! (Gained 1 kg in last 30 days and 3 kg in last 90 days so lots of work ahead of me to regain the lost ground).

    You can do it Tracie!!! That is 21 minutes of exercise everyday!! And for free vacation days ... great incentive!!! Find that fun music video, walk around the block, Leslie walking videos, ..... I know you'll get there!! Plus for me, with this crappy winter-like weather, and no sun, excercise so far is what has really been helping me from getting really depressed and down in the dumps!
