JUST FOR TODAY--One Day at a Time--Daily Commitment Thread for 2022
Replies

All my goals are out of reach for me today - my head just isn’t in the game. I’ve been under a lot of stress anyway and today my mental health got thrown way off when a coworker complimented me on how skinny I am. I know she didn’t mean anything negative by it - I know she wasn’t aware I’ve been struggling to gain for so long now - but the double standard just kills me. Why is it perfectly acceptable to make comments about someone being thin and completely not acceptable to make comments about people who are overweight? Both sides of the scale come with their own host of health problems, but I still feel like I’m in the extreme minority.
Sorry for the rant…I’m off to ignore everything on my to-do list and binge watch Netflix. Don’t have the energy for much else tonight5 -

Body image is a *kitten* no matter where’s you are on the scale. Hugs to you. I struggle with mental illness and can relate to having a day when you just shut down. Things will get better, be proactive when you can. Take care.

Hello! It's been months since I've been in MFP. I don't see any notifications so I'm sorry if I missed a message from someone. I am on ytube as hermit's reflections, can message me there. Anyways I'm doing alright. It was a big move to Arizona and I've been busy just putting in basic infrastructure since my husband and I are building a life on raw land. It's hard working on habits but I have a couple in mind.
As far as health goes, I've lost 50 lbs total so far from my highest weight in about a year. I lost some weight pre- move with nutrition and workouts like up to the beat fitness videos which was something I could follow. I can't work out like that now, but there's plenty of activity to do. My weight really dropped when we moved because of stress, I had little appetite for awhile, then little access to more than gas station food for over a month. There has been a huge amount of sweaty work. My clothes are so loose I had to work in leggings which is something I don't do. Most of my clothes are in storage still.
I've reached my first plateau as projects and pace changes. I think I have about 63 more lbs to reach a healthy BMI. My next milestone will be the overweight BMI. I have 22 more lbs to lose to reach that.
It's hard work here in the high desert but we're making a go of it. I do pace myself and drink water. I'm starting to drink tonic water and Pedialyte to help with some deficiency (finding supplies of all kinds is a real challenge here). I look forward to baking when we can build an oven. It's pretty here. The monsoon rains kept us stuck in place for weeks but we were ok. God provided a day to haul water before it rained again. We're preparing for winter/ mud season.
I hope everyone is doing well. I don't anticipate being on here, sorry. I can't track calories. I'm still working on any sort of routine.

@pridesabtch What a tragic accident. It’s a shock to everyone when these things happen.
Last week we were shocked when we came home from our early morning shopping trip to find a huge funeral taking place round the corner from us. A 19 year old girl who passed my window each morning on her way to school. She was just about to start Uni.
We heard later that day that her mother had bought her a pizza and took it up to her room for her. When she checked back with her an hour or so later she found her lying on her bed. She had choked on a slice of the pizza and could not be revived.
The family are distraught.
Bizarre, tragic accidents unsettle everyone.3 -

Our Queen was a remarkable woman, and well liked by many people around the world. She was still selflessly fulfilling her pledge to us all those years ago ‘to serve her people’ 2 days before she passed away.
I like to think that Philip was waiting for her on the other side.
King Charles III has a lot to live up to.
I have had a busy week as the new semester starts up. I’m a volunteer group leader for a lifelong learning charity, and have been doing admin for the 3 groups that I lead, and need to reorganise my schedule to fit around the group meetings. Busy, busy, busy.
Still sticking with my daily habits and aims.
Routines may change, but life goes on.

Last 2 days were not great fitness wise. Lots time in the car, with car stop and restaurant food but the trip was a good one business wise.
JFT 9/10/2022
Get back on track after returning from my business trip.
1. Weigh in
2. Do some yard work done
3. Get down to the boat for a bit.
4. Return to logging to stay under 1500 cals net of exercise.2 -
Good morning. I am new to this post, but have been searching through various posts trying to find a spot that will fit for me.
I have pledged to myself to stay on track - accountability would be helpful for me.
My goal - to eat 1200-1500 a day - and track it.
Include more vegetables in my life and less unhealthy snacks (chocolate, sweets, salties)
Stay busy in the evening longer, drink water while watching TV.3 -

Definitely felt a lack of productivity yesterday, but did get a good block of quality time work my younger son, doing some driving lessons, and a bit of guitar fun. He now also wants a banjo 🙄. Only a few days ago I picked up a nice amp for him as it was on special and thought it would make a great Xmass gift. Now I might have to reconsider that plan.
I can’t believe it’s been 21 years since 9/11. I had just stopped working in NYC about 6 months earler. I worked in the downtown area and sometimes would be very close to the towers using the chambers street subway stop. Part of me feels like it was just yesterday.

@pridesabtch Happy Anniversary!

6) Unplug 9:00 / floss / retainers / pray & Calm / 5:40 alarm (walk dog before work)
Rainy, chilly weekend and I wanted to use up some apples so made apple crisp. Instead of eating it all at home, I brought it into office to share with co-workers today. Win!About me: CarmelaWord for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship
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)
- 3.31.22 maintaining not gaining
- 4.30.22 barely maintaining
- 5.31.22 ack
- 6.30.22 ups & downs in June, but no worse at end of month
- 8.2.22 up again ~ gah! (lazy in July & ate whatever I wanted)
- 9.1.22 not doing so great eating-wise
- Started PT (physical therapy) exercises 1.28.22 due to overuse of arthritic knees
- 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
- Bellin 10K on 6.11.22 (first time in person since 2019) ~ 1:41:02 ave. pace 16:27 first half 51:35 second half 50:26 & knees were fine
happy me - Packers 5K on 7.16.22 ~ 48:48 average pace 15:43 finished 37/81 in my age group (I'm oldest year in range haha)
- Registered for Bellin Women's 5K on 10/1/22 (Packers 5K discount yay)
- will register for Run for the Hill of It (trail) 5K on 10/8/22 (price goes up in Sept) ~ reconsidered due to knees on nature trails with rocks, tree roots & finishing up a very steep sledding hill... have decided not doing this year (maybe ever again = sad me b/c I love train events)
- watch for other events to add
- maybe Jingle Bell 5K in person this year? need to watch for
8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states) ~ keeping this goal as well
