    Trying to reset this week after a really bad time last week.

    Goals for 11/7
    - 40 oz of water ❌
    - household chores ✅
    - Food logging ✅
    - yoga ❌

    Things went okay today but feeling a little discouraged. Dad came by for an unannounced visit which threw off my plans for the day. He also pointed out that I need to gain more weight. So clearly the small bit of progress I’ve been making in that regard isn’t noticeable 😞 I know he means well but it still really hurt. I really am trying to change. But comments like that make me feel like I’m not doing enough.

    You ARE doing enough! It's kind of the same the other way round. I lost around 10lb and tbh it wasn't really noticeable. I was dead proud of it but crushed that my efforts went unnoticed. But when I lost 30lb that's when others noticed and even I could physically see it at that point!
    So don't feel discouraged, not every day will be perfect but as long as your making progress, no matter how small, it all makes a difference! Keep going! You got this!

    Not been keeping it with my daily goal posting, tbh I have a proper rubbish weekend. And because it was rubbish I just ate lots of junk food, 2 take outs. I was just majorly comfort eating and the worst bit was it didn't make me feel any better at all.

    Saturday morning I was woken early at like 7.30 am (which is what time I get up on school days but prefer to get up an hour later or even 9am on weekends)

    Casey was poorly Saturday morning. So I was up at 7.30 with her. The dog was poorly with his bottom end on Sunday, because he never EVER poops in the house so I knew as soon as they said that he was poorly. The girls woke me up early for that too. And the dogs illness lasted for 3 days. So Ash woke me at 3am Monday morning to tell me the dogs had an accident all over the rug and he just couldn't deal with it. But he did help me roll up the rug, bag it and just bin it. There was no saving it. So annoyed. That's the 4th rug ive gone through for various reasons but this was a real nice one!

    So I've not even been able to walk the dog either
    Not taking him out like that but he seems to be feeling better today thank god.

    So yeah, stressful weekend. Stressful eating. Need to get back on tracj

    JFT Monday
    - Work by 6:15 :smiley:
    - Meetings straight through to noon :smiley:
    - mini meals :smiley:
    - log food :(
    - stay green :(
    - drink some water :(
    - reschedule mom's appointment :smiley:
    - dinner at home :smiley:
    - bed early :smiley:

    Did really well yesterday until the evening, then I binged while hubby went out to the grocery. Then I still ate dinner because I didn't want him to know I went off my plan. I think hubby's bad mood is wearing on me. He mopes around and gets angry easily. I know it's because he is disappointed that his shoulder isn't 100%, but damn he's driving me up the wall. The only time he is happy-ish is when we are out, and that just isn't good for me to be out every night. I struggled to get out of bed this morning, not because I was tired, I just didn't want to deal with my day. Part of it is likely the seasonal depression thing, but I'm sure part is just his mood rubbing off on me.

    On to better news. I finally got my promotion and raise. Yay! The raise was only10%, but the bump in levels means my bonuses will be better from now on. Of course, last year was not a good year for the business, so probably no major bonuses anyway.

    Bible Study tonight and probably leftover steak with salad. No other plans, at least for now.

    - mini meals

    About me:
    I'm Carmela
    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!
    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
    • 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 :star: 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 :star: 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
    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 ~ not much progress lately, at least dining room done
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    Didn’t post any goals today, I was too busy stressing over this work meeting. Not sure how well it went but it’s over now so I can’t do anything about it. Haven’t eaten very much - nerves do that to me - but I’ll try and do better tomorrow / later tonight.

    Other than that my only goal for today is to go and vote.

    JFT Tuesday
    - Work by 8:00 :smiley: barely
    - Meetings :smiley:
    - mini meals :smiley:
    - log food :(
    - Do mom's bills :smiley:
    - Spend some time in the control room today :(
    - Figure out what to do with a contamination sample :smiley:
    - Vote :smiley:

    - Cheer the F*** up... :smiley:
    - Shower :(
    - Bed early - long day tomorrow :smiley:

    Hubby wasn't cranky last night, but I was. I do not know what is going on with me. It wasn't a bad day. I got stuff done at work, the voting line was short, Bible Study was okay and I had pizza (cauliflower crust) for dinner. All wins, but as soon as the movie was over I was out...

    Maybe I'm just nervous about going to the doctor today. I haven't been in over 4 years because I didn't want to be weighed. I'm not as big as I have been, but I'm also not as small as I'd like to be. Guess it will just be whatever it is. Hubby has been on me about getting my mammogram, and the only way to do that was to go to my doctor. Of course since it has been 4 years since I last went, my doctor dropped me as a patient so now I have to go to a new doctor. Which means I'll have to go through my mental health history to explain the meds. Damn I hate having to tell people I'm crazy. I feel so normal these days...

    About me:
    I'm Carmela
    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!
    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
    • 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 :star: 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 :star: 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
    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 ~ not much progress lately, at least dining room done
    Word for 2022: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    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.
