I went a little over on my calories yesterday, but I did stay within my low-carb macros so I'm very happy with that.
WooHoo! I'm done tweaking! 😂🤣
With this being my 1st full week back on track, I've been tweaking my weekly goals, daily macros and so on, just kind of fine tuning them and I think I'm finally done. Now I just have to see if my 'plan' works.
I guess I'll find out on weigh-in days. (tomorrow being one of them ack! 😋)
I did opt to remove the IF eating schedule from my plan. I much prefer calorie cycling between low and high calorie days by itself with no restrictions on the time of day I can eat those calories.

So Far I've Lost 21 lbs (since 2023)
That's 6.89% of my total body weight lost!!
300's ~ 290's ~ 280's ~ 270's ~ 260's ~ 250's ~ 240's ~ 230's ~ 220's ~ 210's ~🥳🥰1derland99🥰🥳
😝JANUARY - DECEMBER 2023😝
▪️ 01/01/2023 ~ Highest Starting Weight ~ 305 lbs
▪️ 12/31/2023 ~ 285 lbs~ ( - 20 lbs for entire year)
305 lbs, urrrggg! this was me, New Year Day, 2023, at my highest weight ever recorded.
Through diet and exercise I lost approx. 50 lbs.
However, halfway through the year I quit! I have no valid excuses to offer up.
I just QUIT! I went back to a life of eating crap and sitting around most of the day.
As a result I regained almost everything I had lost.
😝JANUARY - MARCH 2024😝
▪️ 01/01/2024 ~ 03/31/2024 ~ 285 lbs ~ (+/- 0 lbs, No Change!)
Getting back on track in 2024 was not quite as easy as I thought it would be.
I've been giving up to easy.
BUT...I'm 20 lbs lighter than I was last year!
I still have a little *mojo* left in the tank....
Let's Get Going!!!

Didn't log yesterday, didn't post goals, didn't even go to work yesterday. I think I'm just worn down and saddened by recent events. Chalking it up to a mental health day. I do feel a bit better today physically and emotionally.
Work has been busy today, and I had to leave for an hour so I could take hubby to the infusion center. It's turning into a long day. I think I have one more meeting for the day, and it's more of a Meet & Greet than anything else. One of the gubernatorial candidates from the state is coming by our site today. The other 3 candidates are also planning on coming this month or next. I don't know much about the one today, but a couple of them are so far right they scare me. Their ads are all about their hatred for the LBGTQ+ community and their love for guns and Trump. These are the ads they are using to persuade people to vote for them. Just baffles me that my state will likely choose one of the Trumpers. I mean I get that it is a conservative state, but damn some of these candidates are looney.

I've been very lax lately. Not logging, not weighing, not really caring. I think a little depression is sneaking in even though things are going okay. All I want to do is sleep. I went to bed at 7:30 last night and had a hard time getting out of bed to go to work. I did however finally make it in.
Today's stressors include dealing with Social Security as they have stopped paying my mother's Medicare part B insurance, and they moved my daughter's regatta to the neighboring town due to high waters in the river here. Moving the regatta wouldn't be a problem, but I was in charge of bringing food to the event and I had it catered in Marietta, now it's in Athens... We are seeing if we can move the catering to Athens from Marietta, but it's unlikely. I'll probably have to transfer they food myself from the restaurant to the new location. That wouldn't be a big deal, but I might miss the races to do this... It was nearly a $500 order, so I can't just eat the cost and reorder from another place. Ughh...
I called the SSI about mom's income they redirected me to DHHR, who disconnected me and then sent me to voice mail when I called back.
JFT Friday
- work by 8:00

- Call catering and see if I can change it...
- Work from home 2nd half of the day

1) Make homemade spaghetti for supper / no snacks / log all food / 64+ oz. water
ok at meals, but TOO much snacking ~ ack!
2) At least 7,500 steps
3) Grocery shopping / wash dishes / read / digital declutter / other? defrost 2 loaves zucchini apple bread, rearrange freezers ta-da!
JFT 4/12 F
1) Log all food / limit snacking / 64+ oz. water
2) Walked dog 3.66 mi very windy this morning, even windier this afternoon, so I'm happy dog walk is done & happy dog
3) Put away clean dishes / slice & package bread for tomorrow's rally breakfast / final prep for rally stuff / call Mom & arrange next overnight visit / text sister / read / digital declutter / go to bed EARLY so alarm isn't such a jolt / other?
Tomorrow is spring rally for Women in Missions, and it's our turn to host at our church for the district/zone/whatever. I've never been to one before, but the agenda looks very good; our choir director, whom I love, is the guest speaker. I'm handling the registration table with one other lady, something I've lots of experience with from another org, so I'm ok with that. But due to the Father/Daughter Dance tonight, we can't do any set-up until tomorrow a.m. and K has asked us to arrive 7 a.m. (ugh) to decorate tables (which thankfully, the dads have said they will set up after the dance for us), set out breakfast foods and prep luncheon foods. Hopefully the zone pres will arrive early enough with the sign-in checklists (I liked it better when I had control of that stuff). In the end, I'm sure everything will work out. Because the food will be so much guesswork for me, I've decided I won't log food tomorrow, but will do my best to eat appropriate portions. Not sure if I'll feel much like walking dog when I finally get home in the early or mid-afternoon (not sure how much work to do after lunch, I'm still learning).

Me and ash started exercising again
We had about a 5 day break. My legs are sore again lol!
Yesterday I managed to rein in the snacking.
I still had some snacks but wayyyyy less than I was.
Had a crazy moment last week where I just couldn't stop!
Need to look up some healthy snacks that I'll actually want 😂4 -

Hour commitment - I won’t eat again until after 12 pm.
After I can do stuff normally, I’ll reintroduce some of my other good habits, but right now I’m doing well with these. One that needs to come back is waiting until a reasonable hour for my coffee. Caregiver was giving it to me way early and I’m still having it early right now.2 -

Hour commitment - I won’t eat again until after 5 pm. Today is a dessert day, so can have that whenever DH brings it. None of the same foods at dinner as at lunch. Can still have my dose of metamusal.2

I took a break the last week. My best friend was here, it was also my last week of classes before my practicum starts.
I haven’t had to wear any of my work clothes since last May and I was concerned that I wouldn’t have anything that fit me.
Tuesday evening Cheryle and I watched The Voice while I went through my clothes and I was so surprised that every thing fit and some of it was looser than I remember!
Tomorrow I’ll do a weigh in again, for the first time in a long, long time I didn’t weigh myself daily for the last week.
