6) Floss / retainers / pray = x3
JFT 11/4 F ~ Rainy day, planned rest day
1) Move hourly
2) Supper? / net calories zero / >64 oz. water
3) Grocery shop / prep bday card for dad / prep green jello salad / prep apple crisp / finish thank you to SW / email aunt J / write short letter to El / CPS-3 survey / another ta-da?
4) Floss / retainers / pray
Tomorrow, hubby and I will have 3 hours car time. Going to visit Dad & Mom for his belated birthday (he turns 88 today). Most of my siblings & some in-laws will be there. My sister is bringing casserole & cookies, I'm bringing jello salad & apple crisp, SIL bringing bread.
I will try to fit in PT exercises before we have to be on the road, but no promises. No chance of dog walk today or tomorrow b/c rainy weather. With all the fall yardwork & outdoor time hubby and I've had past two weeks, feels nice to be a bit lazy. Before we packed up patio set & put into shed yesterday, we had wonderful weather days where we had coffee and lunch outside. In Nov.!!!!
About me:I'm CarmelaWord for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship
Height 5'4"
65 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
- 9.30.22 leveling off, starting downwards again
- 10.31.22 not pretty... I can't stand being this heavy 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)
- Bellin Women's 5K on 10/1/22 (Packers 5K discount yay) ~ 48:56 ave. pace 15:45 overall 202 of 296 not too shabby 9 days before I turned 65yo
- 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 trail 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 tomorrow.1
-
So I didn't post goals yesterday but they're pretty much the same.
Didn't achieve any of them other than logging all my food.
I was 500 calories over by the time I finished logging but we all had McDonalds for dinner as a treat, and then me and ash bought ourselves some sweets and chocolate to eat whilst watching a movie. So yeah we pigged out last night 🐖
Dog also didn't get walked yesterday. Tbh I never used to walk the dog much. But since my dad had him for 4 days whilst I was at my inlaws I could see a massive difference in him after him being walked regularly. And I'm proud to say that I've walked him every day since we got him home 11 days ago (bar 1 day yesterday)
But I took him on a longer walk this morning and he's having a good nap now.
So today I need to have a nice healthy day.
My calories overall for the week are still well within the limit so hoping for a loss when I weigh in on Monday!
JFT 5 November 🎆
- Log all food
- Walk dog ✔️
- 8 waters
- No junk food snacks.
- Exercise? (My necks okay now but I have ALOT of cleaning to do, so if I'm not too tired I will exercise)
Have a good day everyone!
Welcome @renaegry !3 -

JFT 11/6 Sunday
1) Church 9:00
2) Move hourly / walk dog
3) Supper depends on oven working / net calories zero / >64 oz. water
4) Watch Packers game (not whole thing if they again play like crap) / finish thank you to SW / email aunt J / write short letter to El / CPS-3 survey / update Garmin GPS / another ta-da?

Lovely day yesterday, visiting with my family for Dad's 88th birthday the day before. The drive was not fun, with driving rain there & very strong gusty winds back. Saw all my siblings and their spouses but one, who had to be at work. No exercise before or after, and ate like crap all day. Oh well, only one day.
Lately, our oven control panel has been working only intermittently. The business where we bought the oven 11 years ago is out of business, so no help there, and parts may be an issue. We had to have the heating element replaced a few months ago, and repairman warned us of things to come with this model. Unfortunately, we have limited options, with oven in wall surrounded by wooden cabinetry. Hubby is good at MacGyvering things, so he's been online researching possible fixes, and there are several. I have promised we wait to shop for new oven until he exhausts his attempts. Kind of a pain for me, not knowing if I can meal prep using the oven. Ack!

My weekend wasn't bad, but the hubby is getting very cranky about his shoulder recovery not going as quickly as he'd like. Mind you he hasn't yet started physical therapy, but he's already decided he made a mistake. He's driving me crazy. The only time he isn't cranky is if we are actively doing something, and there isn't that much to do in our small town. Mostly we go out to eat and have drinks. This is not conducive to my diet. Then he feels bad about that. Ughhhh. He did take up a hobby he can do at home, building models, but it isn't enough. A runner needs to run to get the crazy out and he can't.
Anyway, today started mighty early with a 6:30am meeting about things I have no clue about. Luckily I think I successfully assigned the proper people to the task. More meetings today. Gotta reschedule mom's doc appointment that was supposed to be Wednesday because of a work conflict, but I doubt she remembers she has the appointment, so no biggie there. Tim's car is in the shop, and he starts PT today so he dropped me at work and won't be back to get me until 5:30 ish. Makes for a long day.
