    Because of the MFP app glitch, I was kicked out of my account. I also can't access the email that account was attached to - so here I am on a new account with my updated email. Frustrating, but I guess I can view it as giving me a clean slate - I don't have to feel guilty about gaining weight back, I can start from here and move forward again!

    Today is my "first" weigh in:
    Ultimate Starting Weight: 212.5 lbs
    July Goal Weight: 206 lbs
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 125 - 130 lbs

    So JFT 07/01:

    - Log everything: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snacks, Water, and Exercise
    - 30 minutes of cardio
    - 64 oz of water
    - Take measurements
    - No snacking after 9 PM

    What was your previous username? Otherwise I'll spend ages tryna figure out who you again 😬 😂

    - 64 oz of water ✔️ 68 oz
    - No snacking after 9 PM - Do drinks count? 😅

    Ended up going slightly over my calories for the day due to having drinks with the in-laws. I would have been all set if I had had time to do my workout...oh well. Im only two days in, and I'm already feeling less bloated and getting back to enjoying lots of water and vegetables! My body missed this, I can tell. Now if I could just get over the fatigue that constantly plagues me...

    Back to the real world after 7 days of zero responsibilities, copious amounts of sunshine and waves washing my cares away… Had a lovely vacation with hubby. Still have a few days of work due to the holiday so I can ease back into the grind a bit. Doing laundry today and hopefully going for either a walk or a ride. Need to go to the grocery, but it’s the first Sunday of the month and the day before a holiday, the place will be packed…. Maybe we can wait a day or two. Still not really ready to make goals, but I’ll get there soon enough.

    Hope y’all are having a lovely weekend!

    JFT Tuesday
    1. Park walk.
    2. Duolingo; Lang8?
    3. Update YT. Return library books.
    4. Laundry. Groceries.
    5. Update Beanstack.
    6. Finish writing book list script. Blog post.
    7. YMCA classes.
    8. Evening: Tweetchats. Update WCDP. Dinner: Salad. Drink more water. No, more. Keep the pitcher in the fridge full. You're not actually hungry. Make some tea. Drink more water! Update JFT.
    9. Bedtime: Gratitude journal. Therapy exercises: crunches, push-ups, squats, ankle lifts, box jumps, plank. Meds. Floss, rinse, brush teeth.
    10. Upcoming: Call dr about prescription. Set up digital portfolio.

    Scale goals
    End of 2017: 174.6
    End of 2018: 189.2
    End of 2019: 196.4
    End of 2020: 187.4
    End of 2021: 194.4
    Today: 208.0

    Ongoing plans/ideas
    1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for GR purchase list.
    2. E2: 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. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
    3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
    4. Curriculum Development: 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. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to discussion board for comments due Friday. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri. Unit plan for research (Idea for regular: comparing same story on sites with different biases).
    5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week - Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals. Look into publishing and literacy doctoral programs.
    6. Medical: Dentist June 21. PCP Oct 21 10:30 TEL. Therapy 7/28 8A. Obgyn Oct 14 12:45.
    7. Theater: Read play for discussion Mar 8 7P.
    8. House: Siding. Or perhaps bathroom floor. How to remove cement.
    9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy bike rack for car.
    10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter. Community Kitchen. Emerge Georgia training.
    11. Family: Book group. Dinners?
    12. Writing: Blog post: Running, Racism and Rum: Learning to Handle Discomfort. Fanfic: Create a scene list for the Batgirl story. Finish the cafe scene for the Titans story.
    13. Lifting: 15 squats, 15 deadlifts, 10 shoulder presses, 15 arm raises, 10 pushups, 30 crunches, 15 side lifts, 15 back kicks. Horse stance for 5 breaths, tree for 10 breaths each leg.
    14. Summer: Organize photos with the family. Write Clois. Write Stuffy and Friends. Create blog posts for video lessons.
    15. Other: Practice hair braiding with D. Remind D to ask his dad about the table and check with home repair contractors. 3 posts/week? Create test for MLA format. Create test for infographics and visual information. Remember that M does not like surprises! Check dates of classes and update semester plan. She Should Run vision statement. Update standards on board. When to change bulletin board? Indochino suit fitting - Atlanta or Nashville?
