    1.5l of water - 😕 1 at least
    Log all food - 🙂
    Exercise - 👿 I’m only hurting myself by not doing them. Why can’t I get this done.
    Gratitude journal - 👿 I think it’s just I’m brain tired at the end of the day. Again, though I need to get at it. I have so much to be grateful for!

    @missionalman love your colourful countdown!

    @Snowflake1968 Happy St Patricks Day!

    JFT Wednesday 16th March

    Log everything, even the bad bits! yes, it was bad
    Stay in the green no, meals were fine, but ate about 500 cals of snacks
    Back exercises no
    Foot exercises no
    Laundry yes
    Ironing yes
    Housework some, but spent all afternoon house clearing

    Did really badly yesterday. Will do better today. It's frosty and bright and that lifts my spirits.

    JFT Thursday 17th March

    Log everything
    Stay in the green
    Back exercises
    Foot exercises
    More laundry
    More ironing
    More house clearing
    Walk

    I got a new bag of peanuts for the birds, it weighs 10kg. That's about what I need to lose, and it feels heavy! That weight on my knees is not helping them at all.

    About me: Carmela
    Height 5'4"
    64 yrs old
    Reside in Green Bay, WI, USA

    2022 Goals: mainly updates from the last two years
    1) Weight 150#
    2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
    3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability. Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I track daily on a separate app (for the visual). My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale.
    4) Take measurements & log on MFP every month end ~
    • 1.31.22 forgot to measure & log (DDS 8:20, quick stops at bread store & grocery essentials, then to mom & dad's for her bday)
    • 3.1.22 (still recovering from flu 2.23-2.25)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking dog, treadmill in winter, but include weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
    • Started PT (physical therapy) exercises 1.28.22 due to overuse of arthritic knees
    6) Participate in race or challenge events hopefully fewer virtual this year ~
    • started MapMyWalk app You Vs. the Year 1,022km challenge on Jan. 1
    • Frenzy on the Fox (River Trail) 5K on 1.21.22 ~ untimed event, per MapMyWalk 53.47 & ave. pace 16:30, frigid this year with wind chill at zero
    • registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.5.22 ~ medico nixed race b/c inflammation in knee due to overuse & my arthritis = sad me but good for my knee
    • will register for Bellin 10K on 6.11.22 ~ first time in person since 2019
    • will register for Packers 5K when July details announced
    • will register for Bellin Women's Pink Pumpkin 5K when Oct. details announced
    • will register for Run for the Hill of It (trail) 5K when Oct. details announced
    • watch for other events to add
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last two years to be continued
    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ keeping this goal as well
    9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, former work from home space (a/k/a dining room) and basement
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    JFT Wednesday
    - Work by 8:00 :smiley:
    - Log food :(
    - Stay green :(
    - Ride bike :(
    - Bed by 11:30 :smiley:

    Well... Yesterday was a bust, didn't weigh, didn't log, didn't care.

    Today I will try to do better. Today has already kicked me in the rump. I had a 7:00am meeting, another at 8:00 and another at 8:30 at which point I realized I needed to actually come into work today instead of working from home (booooo... I love my WFH days). Then just before I hopped into the shower, hubby called to tell me Sierra dropped her phone in the river at crew practice this morning. Luckily I have insurance on the phones, but it was still $230 to get a replacement (better than $1000+). Of course I can't mail it directly to her because she has a box number. So it will be delivered to me, then I'll need to drive it up to her. I've missed seeing her, but I hadn't really planned on a field trip this weekend. Oh well, 1st world problems. More an annoyance than a problem to be truthful.

    Other than a busy day at work, I need to go to my mom's and teach spin tonight.

    JFT Thursday
    - Morning meetings :smiley:
    - Work from home :(
    - Shower :smiley:
    - Go into work by 10:00 :smiley:
    - Make claim for Sierra's phone :smiley:
    - Protein bar for lunch
    - Follow up on testing protocol for complaint issue at work
    - Text hairdresser to set up an appointment when she is off maternity leave, my roots are showing my age...
    - Leave work by 3:00
    - Go to Mom's
    - Teach spin
    - Reasonable dinner
    - Bed by 11:30

    Happy, healthy Thursday! Happy St Patrick's Day!

    @Bex953172 - Happy Birthday! I hope you find that your thirties bring some great new experiences and opportunities for you as your girls grow more self-sufficient and you have more time for yourself.

    @BeIn2day - Glad you enjoyed your birthday. Hope it's just the start of a wonderful year!

    @cschmitz110515 - It's good to hear you're knee is healing and that you're finally able to get out with your four-legged friend.

    @MLCTX - Keeping you in my thoughts <3

    @Snowflake1968 - Hope you enjoy St. Patrick's Day! I have some Irish in me as well, so we'll be celebrating this weekend :)

    @Bex953172 - Happy Birthday! I enjoyed my 30’s too. It’s all what we make of it.

    I’ve been wondering about @mytime6630 too. Also @HEGoddard0928, we need a way to find out about our friends.

    @readandlift - what are you painting?

    I think there was more but now it’s past my bedtime. Love to all!
    Tomorrow is Friday!!!!

    JFT Thursday 17th March

    Log everything yes
    Stay in the green no, 150 cals over
    Back exercises no
    Foot exercises yes
    More laundry yes
    More ironing yes
    More house clearing yes
    Walk yes, out for an hour, only walking for approx 30 mins though

    Did much better yesterday. No snacking at all (until I had a few jelly babies at son's in the evening). I just need to use willpower to cut out snacking until I'm used to it again. I know I can do it, I've done it before.

    I’ve been wondering about @mytime6630 too. Also @HEGoddard0928, we need a way to find out about our friends.

    I've been worried as well. In fact I did a Google search for @HEGoddard0928 (using her real name) and located her Facebook page. She recently posted some positive comments just this week on Facebook. Which was relieving to see. However, her comments from Oct 2021 were concerning, especially with her medical concerns. Therefore, I'm kicking it up a notch with my prayers for her. Perhaps the virtual world is a tad overwhelming, which is understandable. But I agree; I wish we could find out about our friends to make sure their alright. They definitely have support here on JFT!!!

    🌷🤗🌷




    @beachwalker99 Thank you, your support is much appreciated!! 🌺

    @pridesabtch Stay strong!! Days like that happen but how we respond is what determines our character!! I think it is awesome that you just rode solo, it shows you are mighty!!! 💥🦸‍♀️💥

    @TerriRichardson112 You are such a delight!! I am happy you are apart of our JFT family. 🌷🤗🌷

    To all the JFTers, let's end this week on a high note!!! Rock this FriYAY!! 👊😎

    Good Morning.. After 2 days into this is when I usually quit. I was tempted. But know it’s not going to get me anywhere. What’s the saying .. We are the sum of our habits? Happy Friday!

    @PackerFanInGB HaPpY BiRtHdAy!!! Wishing you a wonderful day!

    @littleblackskirt Snacking, especially in the evenings, has become my downfall! Like you, if I can get that under control...

    @MLCTX Thanks for the brief update on @HEGoddard0928 b/c I too have been worrying. Keeping you in my prayers as well!

    4) BC-CC write-ups ~ in progress / BC-CC draft report forgot I had to update APG first / Facebook Live video / 2:00 webinar / complete, pdf & digitally sign webinar summary form / submit form & CPE cert to LC / emails current / register for John Hall series = 5/7
    5) Breadsmith / grocery shop / declutter 15 min. / wash dishes YAY / anything else? refilled bird feeders, balanced bank accts, updated budget s/s TA-DA = 4/5
    6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / Voltaren / Calm app / 6:30 alarm (PT exercises before work) :s ack 2/6

    JFT F 3/18

    2) Move hourly
    3) New recipe for supper ~ pork chops with mushrooms / NO evening snacking / net calories <300 red / 96 oz. water

    About me: Carmela
    Height 5'4"
    64 yrs old
    Reside in Green Bay, WI, USA

    2022 Goals: mainly updates from the last two years
    1) Weight 150#
    2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
    3) Post weekly weigh-in on JFT for accountability. Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I track daily on a separate app (for the visual). My digital scale only shows half pound increments & I'm too cheap to buy a fancier scale.
    4) Take measurements & log on MFP every month end ~
    • 1.31.22 forgot to measure & log (DDS 8:20, quick stops at bread store & grocery essentials, then to mom & dad's for her bday)
    • 3.1.22 (still recovering from flu 2.23-2.25)
    5) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x) ~ mostly walking dog, treadmill in winter, but include weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
    • Started PT (physical therapy) exercises 1.28.22 due to overuse of arthritic knees
    6) Participate in race or challenge events hopefully fewer virtual this year ~
    • started MapMyWalk app You Vs. the Year 1,022km challenge on Jan. 1
    • Frenzy on the Fox (River Trail) 5K on 1.21.22 ~ untimed event, per MapMyWalk 53.47 & ave. pace 16:30, frigid this year with wind chill at zero
    • registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.5.22 ~ medico nixed race b/c inflammation in knee due to overuse & my arthritis = sad me but good for my knee
    • will register for Bellin 10K on 6.11.22 ~ first time in person since 2019
    • will register for Packers 5K when July details announced
    • will register for Bellin Women's Pink Pumpkin 5K when Oct. details announced
    • will register for Run for the Hill of It (trail) 5K when Oct. details announced
    • watch for other events to add
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together ~ excellent goal last two years to be continued
    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ keeping this goal as well
    9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, former work from home space (a/k/a dining room) and basement
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship
