Word for 2024: Discipline and Determination. Make this year the year that you use the discipline and determination to keep going.. to do what it takes, which is work, to be determined to reach your goal to be in a healthy weight range.
Plans for today, Jan 7
1. log ALL food.
2. concentrate on water and ice tea. Yes ... I am giving up soda (diet pepsi)!! I am two weeks into substituting soda with ice tea. I will have soda when I eat out, and I think I have 3 cans left, but when those are gone, no more soda in the house. (Or pop as some call it). Ha.. plus it will save me money.. diet pepsi and diet coke have gotten so expensive!
3. take down xmas tree and all xmas stuff and put away
4. clean house
5. laundry
6. tonites dinner: Beef burittos (using leftover taco meat from last nite).
7. sit down and plan at least 4 dinners for the week. Try to make this a new habit.
8. if time.. take down outside decorations and lites. We have 2 more days in the 40s.. then snow, and temps in the 20s!
Got so much done yesterday .. all xmas stuff down and put away. While I didn't do real house cleaning, I at least got things back in order.
JFt, Monday, 1/8

WFTY: Sustainable. Today went well but I am SUPER tired. Everybody else in the house got sick and I didn't sleep well. Didn't actually weigh in this morning because I woke up at 3 and didn't want to try to tiptoe into the bathroom with the scale. Gonna head to bed early tonight and turn off the alarm because there's a delay tomorrow. If I HAPPEN to wake up in time for my exercise class, I'll go to it, but I'm not gonna hit the ground running.2020 WFTY: Progress. 2021 WFTY: Persistence. 2022 WFTY: Focus. 2023 WFTY: Priorities3 -

Yesterday was pretty good. Didn't ride the bike and couldn't go to sleep right after the game. Actually only got about 1.5 hours of sleep last night/this morning.
Weigh in this morning was disappointing. Though I was within calories, I had pasta which tends to stick with me for a day or two. Add that to TOM and weight was up a pound. Stay the course...
After work today, I really need to take the tree down. We just haven't been home much.

JFT 1/9 T
1) Make navy bean soup for supper / log all food / 64+ oz. water
2) PT exercises?
3) Call Mom
done / text sister done / put away Advent candles / pack up nativities / pack up Christmas decorations / after hubby packs fake tree, put in basement storage / dust downstairs / move snowman decorations into empty spaces / read / online finances / review choir schedule emailed by director and update calendar / other?
I am returned to JFT from an unintended long weekend. Sat. we went out of town to visit hubby's brother, wife, and our niece in state for holidays. Sun. was church service followed by forum meeting so home late morning, then my friend HH visited for few hours. We hadn't seen each other in 5 years, so I figured it was time to invite her over. Followed by watching Packers beat Da Bears for a playoff spot YAY. I at least logged food on Sun. but not Sat. since I had no idea what. Mon. was walk dog at tech school before snowstorm arrived, pack away all the ornaments, and take real Christmas tree out to curb.
Today we are in a winter storm warning that started 3 a.m. until 6 a.m. tomorrow. Schools and other businesses were already announcing closures last night. We woke to several inches of heavy, wet snow, with lots more to come in the afternoon & evening. So Ladies Missions meeting today postponed, and choir rehearsal is canceled. I decided it's a good day to get ham bone from freezer and make navy bean soup for supper. No dog walk, but plenty of Christmas decorations and nativities to pack up and store in basement, so that will be my daily activity.
About me:I'm Carmela
This is my lifestyle. It's. Not. A. Diet.
Height 5'4"
66 yrs old
Reside in Green Bay, WI, USA
2024 Goals:1) Ultimate goal weight 150#... I'll be thrilled 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
- Try new recipes Unfortunately, no wall oven until mid-Feb or later & sad me, but try slow cooker & stove recipes
- Walk dog 3-4 miles, treadmill when necessary in winter, weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
- PT (physical therapy) exercises to strengthen arthritic knees & hip flexor
- In 2023 I logged 726.88 miles, or 1,169.8 km & completed yearly challenge 11.14.23
- In 2022 I logged 500.4 miles, or 805km (knee issues).
- I can earn $10 every month on my Medicare Advantage Plan with 10+ days of 7,500 steps
- Registered 12.29.23 for Bellin 10K race on 6.8.24 & eligible to have race fee waived
- Register for my other usual events, and add other possible events
- Always a good idea
- Visit parents 1-2 times each month, phone calls in between ~ they're in their late 80s and live 90 miles away
- Monthly contact with former colleagues/others, now that I'm retired
- Not as much progress as I hoped last year, but not worse.
Keeping my Word for the Year: Tenacity ~ persistent determination; the mental strength to resist opposition, danger or hardship2 -

I had an emotional day yesterday. Some of you may know that my youngest daughter and her husband have been going through IVF. They have ran out of money to continue so her best friend started a Gofundme for them. She had such beautiful words to say.
This is the link if you’re interested.
Hopefully they can get enough together to try again and have success3 -

JFT Tuesday
- Up at 5:00 Was awake, but didn't get up
- Shower slept from 5:00-5:45
- Work by 6:45
- Meetings starting at 7:00am going straight through to 2:30pm
- Log food
- Limit 2 diet sodas
- No alcohol
- Leftover pizza for dinner?
- Take tree down
- Shower
- Bed by 10:30
Did well yesterday calorie wise, but not very good as far as "healthy food". I had pizza for lunch and dinner, but didn't eat anything else yesterday. Took a blissful nap yesterday after work, then went to bed around 9:00pm.
My mom is mentally wearing me out. When I was in Pittsburgh last weekend, she texted that she was having difficulty breathing and may need to go to the hospital. I was 3 hours away, and she didn't return any of my calls, so I sent an ambulance to her house. They gave her a breathing treatment and she was ok, not that she answered my messages about her well being. Her neighbor updated me. Then once I was home she texted that her anxiety was high and she was nervous about going to bed. She asked what she could do to prevent her breathing difficulties. I told her to stay out of the cold air and not smoke. She hasn't talked or responded to my texts or calls since Sunday. I know her phone is working, because she will reply to my husband. Not sure if she's mad that I didn't come over originally (as I said I was 3 hours away) or if she's mad that I told her not to smoke if she was having a hard time breathing. Either way she is pouting. I made her a doc appointment for Friday, but don't now if she'll go, because she isn't talking to me. Ugh. She makes me so angry, but I'm trying really hard not to be passive aggressive or get bitter, but it's hard. Sorry for venting...
On a lighter not, tonight is trivia night and I'm looking forward to that. My goal is to limit to stay within calories and to limit my alcohol to 2-3 light beers and have a salad rather than a cheese steak. Kind of funny story, I'm a Pepsi girl, and the bar only serves Coke. I started bringing my own soda to the bar. I figure I tip well enough that the bartender doesn't mind, but they do give me a hard time.

@PackerFanInGB - I read your last post about being scared for your future, just having all the scarry thoughts that I can so understand. But .. you know.. God is in charge. I have known so many that had stage IV cancer, and have gone through treatments, and are still here 20 years after. I knew someone that the doctors told her they did not think they could treat it ... but the doctors were wrong. She is still here, and still in remission. You are such a strong person.. you have a great attitude.. and you have so much to live for. And ... we are all here praying for you, and sending positive vibes your way. So hang in there dear friend. . know we all love you, and are sending you virtual hugs and prayers, and are always here if you want to vent.
I’m so happy to see you, my friend! Really happy also that you had such a nice visit with your grandson! Sounds like a wonderful time building memories. I would’ve totally gained 7;lbs too! Lol. Nothing like feasting on fast food tho…. I’ve been craving it lately. My taste buds are off and have a metallic taste in my mouth from chemo so it makes it hard to find things that don’t make me nauseous, so I have been craving KFC and I really want a mushroom and Swiss burger from Hardee’s. I’ve not given into the urges though because I don’t want to get sick if it’s too greasy….but it’s on my plan for when mynstomach feels better…. Lol
Thank you for sharing about the people you know who are stil here 20 years out with stage IV. I needed to hear that today. Yesterday during treatment, they had problems accessing my port so had to start treatment through an IV in my arm and that’s all it took for my anxiety to bubble over into tears. I’m trying to be brave but sometimes it’s sitting just right under the surface and I guess I just need to allow myself to feel the feelings. Thank you for the prayers and virtual hugs, and for your support, not just during this time, but over these past years. I consider you a friend I’ve just not met in person. ♥️😊
Have a great day!

@pridesabtch - have you already been at that job for a year!
No 6 months, but annual reviews all occur in January.
I thought I missed a whole bunch of time lol
I was thinking same thing, @Snowflake1968 ! I thought that was a really fast year too! 😂
@pridesabtch hope your evaluation went well, sorry about your mom issues. I understand them well. I have a friend whose mother is very narcissistic also and she nicknamed her “momrrhoid”. It makes me chuckle to think of that nickname when I get irritated with my own mom…deep breaths. I hope she feels better and goes to her appointment!
@clicketykeys I hope this class gets lets stressful! Sounds like it’s a good thing it’s not being offered anymore after this semester! (Hugs)1 -
Good morning! I had 3rd chemo treatment yesterday so am making goals but if I don’t succeed with some of them, it’s ok. I still want to be accountable…more for healthy habits than weightloss at this point…of course I still want to lose more weight because it contributes to my health, but it’s not priority right now. I did good with the infusions yesterday and so far the side effects are minimal with fatigue being the worst right now. If that’s the worst thing, I can handle it! Here’s hoping and praying it doesn’t get worse. Sorry to be talking about this so much, but it’s kind of front and center of every day right now.
Hope everyone has a great day!
@cschmitz110515 how about those Packers?!! What an exciting game! 🏈💚💛 More snow coming tonight and I heard we are getting dumped on this weekend too, although local weather didn’t say much about the weekend yet. Bean soup sounds really good!
Just for Today (1/10/2024)
1. 24H Plan NoBS. 😊
2. 64 oz water
3. Journal my food and close food diary at the end of the day
4. Prayer / devotional / journal.
5. Close exercise & stand rings on watch, but listen to body since I had chemo yesterday and was up most of night. It’s ok if I don’t succeed in this today.
6. Bills. Update ins at pharmacies. 😊 MyChart msg regarding refills to correct pharmacy. 😊
7. Appt for injection at 3:30
8. Home Care / Self Care

@clicketykeys Teachers do so much, thank you! Hang in there.
@pridesabtch Sorry about dealing with your mom. Vent all you want, because it helps. My MIL lived with us once we got married, for 11 1/2 years, and she had advancing dementia, so I know what you're going through. It's not easy. Venting to a few friends and relatives (not hubby's side LOL) helped me greatly.
@PackerFanInGB I remember my dad saying his food tasted metallic when he went through chemo. Glad you seem to be doing better this round. Hugs to you! And yes, those Packers in this season of Love!
I have been excited to watch this youngest team in the NFL all season, unlike last year, when I could barely stand to watch with all the drama. It's been a tough year, especially to start, but see the learning curve clearly going up, and that's the important thing! Go Pack Go!
Recap 1/9 T
1) Make navy bean soup for supper / log all food / 64+ oz. water
2) PT exercises? No time but got 9,164 steps just doing all the other stuff and no dog walk!
3) Call Mom / text sister / put away Advent candles / pack up nativities ~ all but the biggest one with most pieces, so four boxes packed & stored / pack up Christmas decorations ~ all but one box / after hubby packs fake tree, put in basement storage / dust downstairs / move snowman decorations into empty spaces / read / online finances / review choir schedule emailed by director and update calendar / other? shoveled snow off patio while hubby cleared driveway and walkway multiple times during day/evening, digital decluttering TA-DA!
JFT 1/10 W
1) Leftovers for supper / log all food / 64+ oz. water
2) Maybe PT exercises
3) Shovel snow off patio ~ done / wash bedding (cat threw up hairball, thanks a lot) ~ in process / refill bird feeders / pack up last nativity & put in basement storage / pack up last box of Christmas decorations / put remaining three decorations boxes in basement storage / put tins & Christmas books in storage / vacuum downstairs / move furniture back to usual spots / review choir schedule emailed by director and update calendar / review cc stmt & schedule pmt / update budget s/s / read / wash dishes / meal plan & grocery list / other?
Yesterday was quite active, considering I stayed in all day. I finally took a shower late evening, which I hate to do, but really needed. I didn't sleep very well, then heard the snowplow, front end loader and other equipment with beepers clearing snow at the end of our cul de sac a few houses away at 2:30 a.m. I never really slept soundly. So I'm dragging a bit today, and any ideas I might have been considering for basement treadmill are not going to happen. I figure if I get everything else on my ta-da list done, I'll call it good.

2024 Goals:1) Ultimate goal weight 150#... I'll be thrilled 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
- Try new recipes Unfortunately, no wall oven until mid-Feb or later & sad me, but try slow cooker & stove recipes
- Walk dog 3-4 miles, treadmill when necessary in winter, weights/my home version of circuit & other x-training
- PT (physical therapy) exercises to strengthen arthritic knees & hip flexor
- In 2023 I logged 726.88 miles, or 1,169.8 km & completed yearly challenge 11.14.23
- In 2022 I logged 500.4 miles, or 805km (knee issues).
- I can earn $10 every month on my Medicare Advantage Plan with 10+ days of 7,500 steps
- Registered 12.29.23 for Bellin 10K race on 6.8.24 & eligible to have race fee waived
- Register for my other usual events, and add other possible events
- Always a good idea
- Visit parents 1-2 times each month, phone calls in between ~ they're in their late 80s and live 90 miles away
- Monthly contact with former colleagues/others, now that I'm retired
1.7.24 HH came over & visited at my invitation
- Not as much progress as I hoped last year, but not worse.

@pridesabtch - it must be so hard getting old and being alone. I think that is my biggest fear. It doesn’t make it right that she’s acting the way she is, I understand, my Mom gave my brother a terrible time. Hugs to you. It’s a hard road. Do you have any siblings to help out?
I’m a Coke girl myself.
@PackerFanInGB - I’m sure I would be in tears all the way through this. I hope you get to sleep lots.
