Yesterday morning went okay, the afternoon sort of fell apart. Ended up snacking pretty much constantly and then had no appetite/energy to cook something healthy for dinner. I knew the snacking would have that effect but I still couldn’t seem to stop myself. Definitely need to work on breaking that particular bad habit.
Fell far short of my water goal - trying to work up to getting 64 oz a day, but barely managed 24.
Only had the energy to write for about 5 minutes - didn’t make much progress. Looking at another very long day at work today since I worked “only” 8 hours yesterday, so we’ll see if any more writing happens tonight.

@pridesabtch I'm so sorry about the loss of your friend and also your mom's recent diagnosis. Those are tough pills to swallow. (((HUGS)))
@krishjaye I tried to add you as a Friend, but I can't figure out how anymore either! lol! I haven't been on much lately and they did an upgrade. I'll keep trying. Welcome to JFT!1 -
@cschmitz110515 Doesn't it feel great to be retired? But also kind of disorganized because of no schedule? I love your pictures! I've been taking photos of the beautiful colors on my walks with Maddie also. The Maple trees are my favorite! I took her yesterday and the wind & chill was crazy! I had no idea the gusts were up to 50 mph until watching the news this morning...it all made sense then! hahaha!
@Bex953172 Yay for the gym membership! I remember you saying you were a swimmer when you were younger. That will be wonderful for you two to do together. It must feel wonderful to have some "me" time with the girls in school again.
@mytime6630 Glad you are making a dent in your decluttering process! 26 years is a long time to be running a home business. I'll bet you didn't even realize how much stuff you accumulated through the years. I remember a few years back when I decluttered the back "spare" room in our house and when I got done, I had a whole room to work with! It was so eye opening.
Has anyone heard from Snowflake (Tracey)? I hope she's doing well! Funny how we can worry and wonder about people we've not met in person, isn't it? The magic of the internet....

We got our flu and booster jabs today. Drive through in the pouring rain. One in each arm 😝
Shopped this morning so fridge and pantry topped up with healthy options YAY!!!
Spent most of the rest of today finishing my current jigsaw. I get totally engrossed when I do those.
Watching Pointless (quiz show) then will do rice for the beef chilli I made yesterday.

@mytime6630 Good to see you back with us. We missed you!
@cschmitz110515 You’ll soon get a routine up and running. I’m also swapping out my summer for winter wardrobe. 🥰 the fall photos.
@pridesabtch So sorry to hear about your mom. She’s luck to have you looking out for her. but praying the road won't be too bumpy. Sad that you have lost your dear friend at this time. (((Hugs)))

@PackerFanInGB Yes, loving retirement only week & half in! So far I've been keeping very busy, partly because of my birthday month, partly due to family events, but also because I delayed appts. for when I knew I would no longer have my job to work around. I expect things to slow down eventually lol.

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
- 9.30.22 leveling off, starting downwards again
- 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
9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, former work from home space (a/k/a dining room) and basement ~ not much progress lately, at least dining room done2 -
Hour commitment - I won't eat again until after 5 pm. none of the same foods at dinner as at lunch. Can still have my dose of metamusal.2
