    2) Home chores :smiley: lots of outside chores done, some w/ hubby & some on my own
    3) Make asparagus & shrimp with angel hair for supper / net calories green / 14c WATER = Stuck w/ plan & net cals 282 :smiley: sodium & sugar green :mrgreen: fiber low-ish :/ protein low :( 15c water :smiley:

    JFT M 6/15
    1) Walk dog = 4.03 mi 1:21 (walked most of first mile w/ Kim & Bogie, it was nice to chat with someone for a change) & stretched B) happy dog & happy me
    2) Move hourly / REMEMBER 5 somethings / stairs breaks (basement to 2nd floor)
    3) Net calories green / 14c water
    4) Work from home
    5) Vet's office for cat food/dog dental treats :) / Schwan's delivery :) / Walgreens (vitamins & Father's Day card) / one home chore
    6) Call mom & dad
    7) Floss / retainers

    Work from home is not terribly productive, and it is nice to arrange my day & errands however I want. Plus I don't HAVE to get out the front door before 6 a.m. to walk dog before work, only on really hot weather days. Still hating the daily update emails to my manager required by this arrangement ~ ack!

    Will possibly visit parents on Sunday (Father's Day), outside, no hugs, social distancing. Hubby won't go b/c of where he works. I will drive 1.5 hours one way just to see them a few hours, but I haven't visited them since the first week of March. They're in their mid-80s and I want to see them in person. Sure hope the weather cooperates.

    2020 Goals:
    1) Get weight below 160# (last time was 4/20/19)
    2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
    3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability
    4) Take measurements & log on MFP monthly (I stopped as weight plateaued & went up) = 2.1.20 / 2.29.20 / 4.1.20 (forgot 3.31.20) / 5.1.20 (forgot 4.30.20) / 6.3.20 (forgot at ME again)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking but include weights/circuit & other x-training
    6) Participate in race events ~ have planned 7 5Ks and 2 10Ks at minimum = Frenzy on the Fox 5K 49:36 ave. pace 15:29 / Seroogy's Valentine 5K 46:26.7 ave. pace 14:47 / Badger State Brewing 10K virtual race w/ dog on 4/2/20 1:44:16 ave. pace 16:33 / Prevention virtual 5K Fun & Fit Team on 5/2/20 I walked 3.48 mi w/ dog in 1:01:10 ave. pace 17:33 / RonaRunOff 5/16/20 virtual walk 5.08 miles with dog in 1:23:15 ave. pace 16:23 / 100 Miles Challenge fundraiser (per fitness tracker) & completed 5/18/20 / Bellin Run 10K virtual race w/ dog on 6/6/20 1:41:03 ave. pace 16:14 dog definitely slows my "race pace"
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together
    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states)
    9) Declutter home office, bedroom and basement = basement (boxes) Jan. / home office desk (some) & more basement boxes Feb. / basement boxes & home office (some more) Mar. / decluttered/cleaned in bedroom & more basement boxes Apr. / basement boxes May ~ very pleased w/ my progress / reorg in basement June

    Yesterday was tough mentally, but I can’t in under and had a relaxing bike ride.

    Today is a club ride. There is a big @$$ hill at the start of this ride, and the last time I rode this route I totally panicked. Sobbing can’t breath kind of panicked. Oh well, today is a new day. As before, it will be taxing for me, but it won’t kill me. Of course this is assuming I get out of work in time. It’s kind of a crazy day. I need to do better with fueling than I did yesterday, or I’ll never make it on the ride. Still only averaging about 4 hours of sleep a night. That’s getting old, but it’s useful today because I need to leave home early to take my oldest to her annual check up with the pediatric Ophthamologist. Her appointment of at 8:45, but it’s 2.5 hours away. Then I have to go in to work to take care of some things that will hopefully be quick. After that there is a meeting I don’t want to go to, then home to clean up the bike and head out to the ride. Wish me luck!

    @Kuhl50 , I tried eating a protein bar a few times when I didn't have time to stop for lunch. Every time I had stomach ache for the rest of the day, So no longer eat them. I never did work out why.
    I love the idea of blaming an evil twin :)


    JFT Monday 15th June

    Log everything yes
    Be in the green no, but under maintenance
    Back exercises some
    Walk yes, only 20 minutes. We had a thunderstorm in the evening so didn't think I'd get out, but it stopped raining just before bed time so I went.
    Do some gardening thinned out and replanted seedlings
    Finances finally found the tax info I needed online, it's like hunting for the needle in a haystack sometimes. So lots of reading. Had hoped I'd be able to claim a tax refund but sadly not. I'm glad I now know though, and can stop thinking about it

    JFT Tuesday 16th June

    Log everything
    Stay in the green
    Back exercises
    Parents weekly shop
    Walk
    Some gardening if it dries up
    Carry on with finances -
    Submit annual tax return

    @pridesabtch I think you are 1/2 way there just having the self awareness about how easy it is to go down the negativity/ self destructive rabbit hole. I still struggle every time I go into the red calorie-wise.. I’m like “f%#k it, I’ve already failed may as well go crazy”...I don’t guess that’s the healthiest approach but I keep coming here, re-writing my daily goals, and move on. At least for the last 6 months I’ve been able to keep these f@#k days to just 1 or 2 a week & even with these I feel like I’m not going backwards. I do think the margin for error is less during the time we are trying to lose weight vs maintaining. I feel like even though I’m often in the green my weight has not changed. That’s ok because I’m actually below my initial target but still weird I’m not really losing even staying green. I do think some of it is water... I really focus on carb intake 48-72 hrs before a race and I know that makes you retain water. Oh well sorry for the rambling. Really just wanted to give you a fist bump 👊 and say I hear yah sister and as the great Tony Horton (p90x guy) would say “just keep pushing play”

    @HEGoddard0928 - Matt is going to suffer through a long day today, I bet he goes to bed as soon as he gets home tonight.

    @rhododendron33 - I am right there with you, but the good part of this is thread is we just try better today to reach our goals.

    @cschmitz110515 - A daily email would bother me as well. If the work isn't getting completed they should be able to know that and deal with that individual. I would make the drive to see my parents in your situation too.

    @hypersensitiveb1975 - It's those unexpected surprises that catch me off guard too.

    @kuhl50 - I had too many suppers last night and a dessert... we'll see the drop in a couple of days I'm sure.

    @teigansdad - I had the same problem when I was losing even though I was staying in the green I didn't notice a difference on the scale. I weigh daily and started tracking my numbers in excel. Come to find out I was losing about a pound a week, it was just feeling like it was taking forever. I noticed the inches coming before the pounds though. I need to get back to that point again.

    I did not get my walk in last night. When I left work it was raining so hard, then it cleared off and then a thunderstorm and heavy rain again. The sky in one direction was ominous looking and the other was clear. I didn't trust not getting soaked.

    My best friend Facetimed me last night she was extending her vacation mood after returning to work yesterday. She is not a drinker really, but had had three coolers. It was a nice chat even though she was hard to keep on topic LOL

    Today is supposed to be sunny all day so I should get a walk in this evening. I stopped and bought a salad for lunch so that is a start.

    Hope everyone has a great day1

    Day 4/4 of long weekend nearly done though (although still a few hours to go!)

    Have spent some time this afternoon thinking about life goals etc. and actually I identified that the yearly resolutions I wrote in January are still very much the ones I want to be focusing on - just need to get back to them! So here are some monthly resolutions for June/ July, tailored around those goals for the year and where we are now:

    Daily
    Eat 5+ fruit and veg per day (average)
    Drink 2.4 litres water per day
    Get into habit of taking breaks at work
    Get into habit of keeping emails off at work
    Meditate daily
    Speak French to boyfriend every evening

    Weekly
    Have a date night once per week, following the rules
    Hit weekly calorie goal (halfway into maintenance)
    Watch a French movie/ TV show every week
    Read 10 pages of French book per week
    Spend some time reflecting/ planning each week

    Across month
    Get work objectives set - in line with my goals
    Read positive thinking book
    Write list of relationship issues to work on


    I've been thinking about whether or not I want to start posting every day again. I do really enjoy logging on everyday and to some degree the daily accountability does help. However, I'm finding it hard to find time on a regular basis to do it within my new schedule and I'm also finding it increasingly difficult to fit all my priorities in without feeling like I never stop and rest. I think for the time being at least I'm going to post weekly, at the weekends, with goals for the upcoming week. I may check-in partway through the week on how I'm doing, or I may just leave it the full week. Let's try that for now!

    So for this week (Wed - Sun), it's a pretty similar list to the list above:

    Daily
    Eat 5+ fruit and veg per day (average)
    Drink 2.4 litres water per day
    Get into habit of taking breaks at work
    Get into habit of keeping emails off at work
    Meditate daily
    Speak French to boyfriend every evening

    Other
    Hit weekly calorie goal (halfway into maintenance)
    Have a proper date night on Thursday
    Watch a French movie/ TV show at the weekend
    Read 10 pages of French book at the weekend
    Spend some time reflecting/ planning at the weekend
    Write list of relationship issues to work on

    Yesterday I only completed 3 of the 6 things I wrote on my JFT. Luckily today is a new day. 😋

    1. Eat clean. Focus on fruits and veggies.
    2. Exercise - stretching and cardio
    3. Write in my journal
    4. Take measurements. I didn’t do it when I started but can tell I already lost an 1” here and there because I can fit is smaller pants.
    5. Make the phone calls I am avoiding.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Ok Today went good in the morning, ok in the afternoon, and well could have been better this evening but I got a lot done around the house and we ordered pizza due to an animal emergency my husband brought to me and so we took it to a wildlife rehab after I patched it up some . But I still did good calorie wise so I’m happy with the day .

    Tomorrow’s just for today goals :
    Drink a bottle of water with each meal. 👎
    Stay under calorie goal. 👎
    Get some walking in.👍

    Have a great day everyone 😃

    So as seen above I didn’t do well . Mainly is a dinner issue hubby had to do a almost thanksgiving dinner . I avoided some of it but everything but the green beans had a ton of calories.
    I did get some exercise but not even trying to make up that much calories. Good thing is my original calorie goal was 1500 and I lowered it .

    Tomorrow’s just for today.
    No sodas at all
    Walk 2 miles
    Stay under goal

        JFT Tuesday 16th June

        Log everything yes
        Stay in the green yes! Only because I included the lawn mowing exercise
        Back exercises forgot
        Parents weekly shop yes
        Walk mowed the lawn instead
        Some gardening if it dries up yes
        Carry on with finances - yes
        Submit annual tax return yes, had a treat when it was done. 100 calories of cake, it was a tiny piece!

        2 weeks in, and I'm getting used to logging and cutting back. Yesterday I resisted snacking even though I wanted to. I went to bed still thinking about eating crisps :) but I knew I wasn't really hungry, just mouth hungry.

        TUESDAY:
        - Virtual graduation ceremony for my 5th grader. 👩‍🎓🟢
        - Homeschool🟢
        - Log it / stay green🔴
        - Grocery shop🟢
        - Final dance class for E🟢
        - Landscaping project🟢

        Today will be a little sad. My 5th grader will have a drive by the school to pick up her yearbook. All of the teachers will be lining the street to cheer for the kids. I can’t even type that out without tearing up! 😭 Not how we thought the end of the year would be for them, but I’m grateful that the school is still trying to make it special.

        Yesterday after the virtual celebration we made a few bunches of flowers and dropped them off at some of her friend’s houses. It was a lot of fun and made everyone smile.

        JFT WEDNESDAY:
        - 5th grader parade/yearbook pick up💕
        - Homeschool
        - Landscaping
        - Final dance class for B
        - Exercise (cardio)

        Be well! 💕

        @littleblackskirt, I like that idea of "mouth hungry." I have that a lot and it is hard to overcome!

        @merope2, I know! My mouth wants to eat and my hands want to feed it lol. Especially right now being stuck at home alone and thinking I deserve a treat. Lots of willpower required, I keep reminding myself I want to be slimmer more than I need a treat.
