    Well I can officially say that I have exercised for 4 days in a row!
    Only on my stepper. Not exactly sure if it's doing much but any exercise is better than non and it's gently easing me back into it.
    Started with 5 minutes, then 10, 15 and hit 20 today
    15 is gonna be my absolute minimum and I'll keep increasing the time by 5 minutes or for as much time as I have available depending which comes first.

    I've ate quite well. I didn't have pizza last night, I let ash have it, he offered to share but I said no (Can you believe it, I said NO) SO I had a egg mayo sandwich and a cup of tea for dinner, and a piece of toast later on because I was hungry

    But I'm doing well. I'm feeling good, still powered by caffeine 😂
    I've realised one makes me sleepy, 2 or more gets me up and about lmao x

    Stay under calorie goal with exercise added✅✅
    8-12 glasses of water✅
    Trainer ride✅
    Trail ride✅
    Call HVAC and reschedule✅
    Change Cat litter✅
    Make dinner💩 decided on leftovers
    Log all food✅
    No more than 2 beers If buddies end up parking at my place to ride✅
    Bring girls to track practice✅
    Laundry✅
    Limit social media during family time💩 but getting better
    Caulk top of shower✅

    Yesterday went better than planned. Sara ended up offering to pick up girls from track so I got to ride with my buddies in the afternoon. Had a fun time and I feel like lately I’ve been able to keep the snack monster under my thumb. I’ve said it before … alcohol well specifically
    Beer is probably my biggest culprit in going off the rails. I truly love a good New England IPA. As long as I keep it under 2 I seem to be able to control the eating volume… if I go more it’s like it disables a switch in my brain… I’ve had beer now two days in a row but stayed with the no more than 2 and so far that seems to be the magic number.. I only will partake when with my buddies so that’s also been a good change. Back to work for me today after 4 days off. No student with me so I’m happy about that… I do have a bunch of admin stuff I have to get done over next couple of days
    Won’t be able to train as much rest of week with work and Teigan’s track meet tomorrow. I’m bummed because I’ve managed to be scheduled to work pretty much for every meet. I get off at 7… the meets will go much later so I should still be able to catch at least one of her events if not more depending on how many she runs but no-way I’ll see the 800 x4 which she really likes and went to regionals in last year. Will look at schedule this week and see if I can work some future deals.

    Plan for today
    Log all food
    Stay under 1900 calories
    30 minutes or more on treadmill after work
    8 glasses or more of water (much harder to push fluids at work)
    No beer after work
    No food after 8
    Work on credentialing recertification paperwork.
    Work on committee outline for next project
    Limit social media during family time

    You've got a really healthy plan for today! Is the vanilla skinny syrup for your coffee like using stevia drops? Just curious. I like french vanilla creamer but I'm trying to get away from using creamer but still want that flavor...

    ***yep! the creamer was a HUGE culprit in my high cholesterol! and with the skinny syrups i need literally nothing else in my coffee. <3<3<3

    JFT Tuesday
    - Work by 7:20 :smiley:
    - SharePoint training ALL morning :smiley:
    - Still need to create training documents for QAR & LPA 🥱
    - Protein bar for breakfast/lunch 😀
    - Log food😞
    - Leave work ~5:00 😀
    - Take ring to be repaired (wedding band snapped)😞
    - Dinner with Bible Study group 6:30 😀
    - No alcohol😞
    - Bed by 11:00😀

    Want mentally prepared for Bible Study yesterday. I’m still pretty angry with God. Don’t get me wrong my faith is still strong, I just don’t understand His plan for my family. Anyway, that makes studying His word difficult for me.

    Today is a 4 hour SharePoint training. Yawn, but I am taking it from home in my pj’s and able to do laundry while I’m home.

    This afternoon I’m going to go on a mini road trip back to where I grew up to see friends and go to a basketball game. I’m looking forward to seeing old friends & doing something where drinking isn’t central to the event.

    It will be a late night, but a good night.

    JFT Wednesday

    - Laundry 😀

    I know it's no longer January... but is it too late to join in for 2023?

    I have some goals for this year and boundaries I plan to use for the year. I started my journey in 2009 but have had a lot of ups and downs. I have finally gotten to a point where I think I know what my long term boundaries have to be to keep myself on that track.

    Long Term Boundaries:
    Calories between 1200-1800 every day, even on special occasions.
    Only water from 8pm to 10am except for special occasion days or Sundays (when we leave by 10am).
    Exercise at least 3 days a week.
    Keep blood sugar under control by diet and exercise alone. No diabetic medications.
    Get weight to "overweight" instead of "obese" (only 5 lbs from this goal)

    Just for today:
    Keep to calorie boundaries
    Be sure to get in a walk
    Pasta day for dinner!
    Drink at least 100 oz of water

    • 24H Plan & Assess :)
    • 64 oz water before 7 pm :)
    • Close activity rings :)
    • Bills / Balance checkbook :)
    • Mom's for AQ video :)

    • Shovel sidewalk at Bob's and throw out some salt. 😏 Nope. It got up to 40 degrees, so I let it melt!
    • Bed early tonight. :)

    Good morning JFT friends! Well, the morning went good. Got all 3 grandkids up without too much complaining and out the door and to school on time. Then I got a call from older grandson to come get him because he isn't feeling well. I know the other two kids were sick last week, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt and picked him up and took him home. He doesn't miss much school, so hopefully my son won't be mad at me for "falling for it". :wink: I'm at home now. I have laundry to do at both houses and I need to dust and do the floors at my house and their house today also. I've been coming home to shower and dress after I drop the kids off at school so I don't have to pack a bag for the week. They live only about 3 miles from us (maybe not even that far) so it's been pretty easy. Plus, my dog is pretty happy to see me in the morning. My husband said she mopes and lays by the door in the evening waiting for me to come home. Awwww...<melt my heart>.

    I have no idea what to make for dinner tonight. Last night I made chicken nuggets, mac & cheese and tater tots. I made a bunch and all they ate was the mac & cheese...well, the boys did anyway...my granddaughter didn't eat ANYTHING. So I had a ton of food leftover. I feel like I'm wasting their food, not to mention I now have leftover chicken nuggets and tater tots in the fridge begging me to eat them! 🤦‍♀️


    @Snowflake1968 Yes! Party lines! We had one too. I don't know who we shared our line with but I remember always having to listen to make sure nobody else was picking up the line and listening in... Oh my gosh. Times sure have changed. Now I don't leave the house without a phone in my purse. Crazy. My son and DIL are on a Princess cruise ship in the Caribbean. I am so jealous! I think I need to try a cruise someday... Good luck on the interview! What job did you apply for? Fingers crossed!

    @Bex953172 I agree it's hard even when you're young. I had just forgotten how hard it is. Plus, I'm not used to getting up early in the morning anymore. I was pretty proud of myself for waking up before the alarm went off at 05:30 this morning! Two more days of getting up early, then my son and DIL will be home around suppertime on Sunday.

    • 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.

    8) Make efforts to keep in touch with parents, siblings and friends (most live in other towns or states)

    I made terrible decisions today. It started yesterday when I bought crackers and cookies at the grocery store. Even standing there in the aisle I knew it would be a bad idea, because my self-control goes out the window when it comes to those two foods. But I still bought them anyway. Today at work was really slow so I started snacking because I was bored, and that continued throughout the afternoon. Then of course I didn’t feel like cooking a healthy meal I had no appetite for.

    I’ll try and be better tomorrow (ha.. how many times have I told myself that one?). For tonight I’m just disappointed in myself.

    Log all food✅
    Stay under 1900 calories💩
    30 minutes or more on treadmill after work💩
    8 glasses or more of water (much harder to push fluids at work)💩
    No beer after work✅
    No food after 8✅
    Work on credentialing recertification paperwork.✅
    Work on committee outline for next project💩
    Limit social media during family time😐

    Today should have been better. Stayed under 2k but ate thing of low cal Ice cream that added almost 400 calories
    It’s funny I kinda knew I wasn’t gonna run by noon today. Legs just feel tired. In retrospect I’ve worked out pretty hard for last 6 days straight . The only reason missing tonight is a issue is that tomorrow I’ll be at a track meet and I hater working out on Friday. But not working out for 3 days in s row is actually stressful to me. I guess I’ll figure it out. Prob still better to recover than overtrain

    Wish I didn’t eat the ice cream but at Least I didn’t go crazy overboard

    I’ll post to tomorrows goals in am
