    @Bex953172

    Maybe invite your kids to join in the dance party with you?

    I would but as much as I love them they can be a right pain. It's a proper work out video and I'd say medium intensity. And I can guarantee someone will end up hurt by a flailing arm.

    Also they have this amazing ability to argue over anything 😂

    However I do play Just Dance with them on the Switch. Although Marley was highly critical of me lol "Do you even know what you're doing mummy?" And "Mummy you're really bad at this."
    As if I wasn't the generation that grew up with consoles 😂😂 she soon realised when I beat her butt at it hahaha

    Snow day! Guess I'll be getting my exercise clearing the walk and part of the driveway. It's a wet, heavy snow, so it's gorgeous to look at but a bear to shovel. I'm going to have to get out there and make a first pass soon.

    I missed a few days checking in, but I managed to get a lot done in the house on Friday. I also had a busy but fun weekend with my sister and niece. My younger son also came down on Saturday and stayed to watch part of the Super Bowl on Sunday, so I didn't get much grading done. Lots of teacher talk though. My son's in his second year teaching robotics and running his high school's two robotics teams, and my niece is a grad student TA in biology, so there was a lot of story swapping, brainstorming, and (hopefully welcome) advice. My sister is a seasoned middle school math teacher, so she had a lot of helpful tips to share with the two newbies.

    Food choices were mixed. I did well on Friday and for part of the weekend, but there were bagels and cream cheese on Sunday and too many cookies and Italian pastries around to ignore. Ah, well. Today's another day.

    Recap Friday, 2/9
    Stay hydrated - :)
    Better food choices - :)
    Work in some exercise - :)
    Catch up on chores - :)

    JFT Tuesday 2/13
    Stay hydrated
    Better food choices
    Work in some exercise

    Working from the office today. My smoke alarm started chirping at 9:30 last night and the noise was still going on this morning at 7:30 when I left. Even with a step stool I’m too short to reach up and disconnect it, so I put in a work order. Should be fixed today but the noise was driving me nuts last night trying to sleep.

    No class tonight, but we have a big assignment due, and this is supposed to be the final draft, since we’re doing final presentations Thursday and Friday. The feedback I got last time wasn’t great so I have a lot of work to do tonight.

    Eugh don't even think I posted goals yesterday! I was very very tired yesterday. Monday night Casey was sick, and then her tummy kept cramping which we all know how painful that can be when youre sick. So after getting up 5/6 times I decided to get in bed with her. And every 20 mins or so she was crying with the cramps. And she was sick two more times alllllll through the night until 8am. She then went back to sleep from 9-12 so she caught up on her sleep. I however was zombified. I did get a quick hour nap in the afternoon but it didn't help much!

    But because I was tired I think I over snacked because my body just probs needed the energy lol but it made me go over in calories.

    Not gonna beat myself up about it

    Goals for today!

    Weekly Goals
    - Log in every day and update daily!
    - Say 'No' to myself.
    - Reduce sugar intake

    - Log ALL food
    - Swap out 'bad snacks' for fruit
    - Get atleast 6 waters in
    - Be within calorie goal
    - DONT EAT BACK EXERCISE CALORIES!!


    Tips & Tricks
    - Feeling peckish? Have a drink first!
    - Write my goals somewhere noticeable (off the app)
    - Log as I eat so I don't forget anything
    - Tell myself "no" out loud! Not just in my mind!
    - Fat Me Vs Thin Me! (Fat Me wants to eat the junk food, but Thin Me wouldn't do that, so be more like Thin me!)

    JFT Tuesday
    - Meetings from 7:00am to 3:30pm. :smiley:
    - Drink more water :smiley:
    - Nap :smiley:
    - Bed by 10:00pm :smiley:

    Yesterday was a pretty good day. Work was long, but productive. Did better with water intake and didn't drink any alcohol. Got a good nap in after work, ate a reasonable dinner and went to bed early.

    Bloodwork this morning to check cholesterol levels, thyroid levels and kidney function. Surprisingly my liver is fine, lol. Work today then maybe trivia this evening. But after the other night's self destructive depressive episode, I'm going to skip the drinking tonight all together. I'm not saying I am quitting drinking, but at least until I'm regularly taking my psych meds again it isn't a good idea. Tim has been under the weather and I'm getting a cough, so we may just stay home and throw a pizza in the oven. Oh, the appliances are now functional. Still no counter top, but that should be in next Tuesday. I'm guessing after the counter top is in, it will only be a day or two more until the kitchen is done. Then they will start on the small bathroom.

    JFT Wednesday
    - Take Tim to work at 7:30 :smiley:
    - Blood work at 8:20 (didn't get me in until 9:00) :smiley:
    - Work
    - Check in with MFP
    - Stop by mom's to get bills
    - Home by 5:00
    - Trivia
    - No alcohol
    - Home by 10:30
    - Shower
    - Bed by 11:00

    Had a great time visiting at Mom and Dad's Monday & Tuesday. Also got to see my aunt, who is leaving next week for 3 months in Australia (she's a dual citizen, and her hubby is an Aussie, so they spend part of their year apart on different continents). Plus my youngest brother stopped over on his day off so we got to visit a bit. <3 After being out of town 2 days, eating light breakfast out with Mom and her lady friends, and eating Dad's homemade cooking, all with sedentary time in car and visiting, I'm surprised to see my weight is stable this morning. I'll take it!

    Yesterday was good. Stuck to my no alcohol goal at the bar. Even shot some pool. Apparently I need to learn to play completely sober. I tend to play better with a few drinks in me. I guess I am less nervous. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the evening and slept well after.

    Not sure what tonight holds. Tim likes to go to the Cocktail Bar on Thursday evenings, and they do have good burgers. Still not sure I want to go out though. Sticking with no alcohol.
