    Yesterday
    Less than 2300 calories total (think this might be more reasonable)💩 but was under adjusted for exercise
    No beer✅ and I even purchased a 6 pack.
    10–12 glasses of water✅
    Trainer ride✅
    Weights✅
    Get a run in … on way to pick up car✅
    Re-caulk upstairs shower/tub✅
    Log all food✅
    Pay credit card bill💩
    Bonus… mtb ride of trails open💩

    Yesterday was ok..would have liked my caloric intake less but planning on putting 1.5 hrs on trainer backed up by ride on trails… should get around 45-50 miles in today total.
    Gonna skip weights. Used to lift all the time. Yesterday was pretty nice first time I’ve felt a “pump” in years lifting. Moved away from it when focus turned to biking but as I age I keep reading how resistance training is so important and I really also just wanna be healthy. Happy to have skipped the beer yesterday. Had pretty bad urge while doing house work but also knew I needed to get my daughter after her practice AND really didn’t want it… just think my brain was searching for something. Kombucha saves the day again… just that gingery sour taste and thick unfiltered consistency seems to really satisfy me… plus only 50 calories vs 300 for a can of beer.
    Teigan has a track meet today. Really more of a scrimmage but Sara and I are gonna go. I’ve gotta do a bunch of beg borrowing and stealing to make switches at work this year as I’m scheduled to work a ton of her meets. Her cross country season and indoor track season was supper tough. Her coach was just toxic. Never ever giving positive feedback. Always telling her she was too slow in indoor track BUT wouldn’t give her a shot in the mid distance events (which she went to regionals for as a freshman).. luckily the school asked him to leave because he was such a total A$@ to all the girls except maybe two (one of which is just a natural superstar). He almost single handedly ruined a sport she had grown to love. Now she’s got her old coach back. He’s kinda old school. Works them HARD… but I’d they put in the work he supports them 1000%
    Night and day in her performance, overall mood…
    Everything
    Thank god!

    Todays goal
    Shoot for sub 2200 calories
    No food after 8
    Pay bills
    Trainer ride
    Trail ride
    Pay car registration
    10 glasses of water
    Enjoy track meet today

    Yesterday was rubbish. Tim came home and we had to drop his rental car off around 3:30, and neither of us wanted to go home. We went for a walk at the park and out for an early dinner which turned into drinking and shooting pool. It was fun, but I feel bad about my choices lately. As others have said, March can be a fresh start.

    Well on a good note seems like you and the hubby had a nice night together... Feel like you guys deserve that. Today's a new day.
    I think anytime we spend w/ our spouse doing things together other than "must do" family obligations (dinner, house work, attending sporting events for our kids") is a good thing. The closest we seem to get on that is watching TV together. For me that end up equating to snacking and mindless scrolling on internet. If I were to be snacking but having a blast w/ my gal I think I'd give myself a pass on that one. You should too (:

    2023 Goals:
    1) Ultimate goal weight 150#... I'll be satisfied if I can get back down to 160# this year
    • Post weekly weigh-in on MFP 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.
    • Take measurements & log on MFP every month end ~ 1.31.23 ack! 2.28.23 not better but not worse
    2) Plan meals most days & prelog meals/snacks whenever possible on MFP
    • Try new recipes now that I have the time
      January: parsnip/potato mash; St. Louis gooey butter cake (Mom's bday) = :smiley::smiley:
      February: creamy bacon corn chowder (slow cooker); banana bread (using applesauce & oil); braised lamb shanks with lentils (slow cooker); apple cake (with buttermilk) = :smiley::smiley::smiley::smiley:
    3) Exercise 5-6x per week (minimum 4x)
    January 1x6 days, 1x5 days, 2x4 days = :smiley:
    February 1x6 days, 2x5 days, 1x4 days = :smiley:
    • Walk dog 3-4 miles, treadmill when necessary in winter, weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
    • Continue PT (physical therapy) exercises to strengthen arthritic knees & hip flexor
    4) MapMyWalk app You Vs. the Year 1,023km challenge started on Jan. 1
    January 48.14 miles
    February 55.79 miles YTD 103.93 miles
    • In 2022 I logged 500.4 miles, or 805km. Not the full challenge, but with knee issues early in year, I was happy to get this far.
    5) At least 7,500 steps per day
    • I can earn $10 every month on my Medicare Advantage Plan with 10+ days of 7,500 steps = :smiley::smiley:
    6) Participate in my favorite area races ~ I walk, I do not run
    • Registered for Seroogy's Valentine 5K on 2.4.23 ~ skipped 2023 due to frigid temps with wind chill around 0F... didn't want a repeat of overuse injury from last winter. In 2022, I had to cancel race due to inflammation in knees from overuse & arthritis (medico advised) from walking in another frigid 5K.
    • Registered for Bellin 10K on 6.10.23 ~ 2022 first time in person since 2019; 2023 added 5K event.
    • register for Packers 5K ~ date TBD
    • register for Bellin Women's 5K ~ date TBD (1,000+ for all races in 2022)
    • watch for other events to possibly add
    7) Be considerate and loving to hubby and have fun together
    • Excellent goal previous years, to be continued
    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states)
    • Visit parents 1-2 times each month, phone calls in between ~ they're in mid to late 80s and live 90 miles away
    • Monthly contact with former colleagues/others in town, now that I'm retired
      1.12.23 lunch w/ CH
      2.11.23 ART Nite w/ PZ (supper, gallery, bar w/ live music)
    9) Continue to declutter bedroom, home office, basement, books in living room
    • Made great progress on first floor of house in 2022, keep going
    Word for 2022-23: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship

    When we sit and watch TV, we both just play on our phones and there is virtually no interaction. Maybe the occasional "Did you see that?" if we are watching sports. Our time in Pittsburgh was largely spent in the hotel bar (our bar bill was probably as high as the room fee). We could only visit the hospital 1 hour a day, and there is only so much time you can spend in a hotel room (mind out of the gutter). They weren't exactly fun nights, but they were ridiculously high in calories. I think we were both too in shock & felt guilty if we were to lighten up and enjoy ourselves when our daughter was struggling so. There is a new level of stress now that she is out and living on her own, but we can't dwell on it. At least it doesn't do any good to dwell on it. I think we both just kind of let down yesterday. Not exactly productive, but I think I will give me a pass on that one. Just gotta do better tonight. Still going out, but I think I'll drive tonight.

    Hi JFT friends! I know it's been ages, but you've been in my thoughts. Honestly, I've missed you all. The last 8 or 9 months have been challenging, and I've let the stress erode many of the good habits I worked so hard to build the previous year. Well today I looked at the date on my watch and the numbers on the scale and decided I need to step back on track and take responsibility for my own wellbeing. I logged my food and went for a walk, so that's a start. Now to set a few goals and work on catching up a bit.

    JFT Thursday, 3/2
    Log
    Make healthier food choices
    Hydrate
    Exercise
    Paint BR
    Grading

    @beachwalker99 -- Welcome back!! We missed you!
    @pridesabtch -- you have been through so much these past couple of weeks .. so give yourself a pat on the back for even just maintaining. Right now, all your energy is focused on your dear daughter and taking care of yourself. The scale is only a number ... your mental health, etc means so much more. With all you have been through.. I would not even be thinking about what I eat. .so you are doing great. BTW... I hope your daughter is doing better! Praying for you all during this hard times, and praying that things get better for you all.
    @clicketykeys -- I am like you with water. I have to remember to ask myself if I am just thirsty .. which in most cases for me, it is thirst, not hunger!
    @shann55437 -- Welcome! Happy to have you join us!

    JFT Wednesday 1st March

    Log everything yes
    Stay in the green no, 1450, so 50 over
    Back exercises no
    Grocery shopping yes, so many shelves full of things I shouldn't buy!
    Monthly bills some
    Phone council yes, got through eventually
    Sow some seeds no

    Day 1 was fairly successful, there were numerous times I wanted to eat something but stopped myself because it was just habit. My morning went well, I failed to finish my plans in the afternoon. After my phone call I had to follow up with neighbours and it took up time, if the council would do their job properly I wouldn't be having to do this. So I'll catch up today.

    JFT Thursday 2nd March

    Log everything
    Stay in the green
    3 proper meals, plan evening meal early
    Back exercises
    Finish monthly bills
    Housework
    Sow some seeds

    @shann55437 Welcome! Glad to have you join us! I'm Becky, 30yo, also have 3 kids but younger, 9, 6 and 5. And all mine are girls. Sorry to hear about the cholesterol.
    I like how you plan your meals the day before! I'd love to be able to do that myself but everyone in the house is so fussy (including me) and what I make I probably won't feel like eating the next day 😂
    It's good you've seen a dietician too! What was her advice regarding the cholesterol?

    We all have our own little tips and tricks too so you may pick up more along the way!
    Good luck!
