    Helly my JFT friends!
    Oh my! 138 posts behind again! I will try to read a few pages at a time to catch up, but I need to just post my goals in the meantime or I'll never do it!

    I've been slowly regaining my strength after chemo. It really kicked my *kitten* this time. I spent so much time lying down, sick, that my muscles have actually weakened a lot. It's hard for me to even walk up our basement stairs! That's just ridiculous! I've started physical therapy to strengthen my muscles and to work through some SI joint pain so I can start a walking program. I go next Wednesday for my first therapy session with PT. I had a consultation with them last week but they weren't sure how aggressive they could be since MRI showed a fracture in my L4 disk (the one that had cancer in the bone) last October. They don't want to do anything that could hurt me more. BUT, GREAT NEWS, they did an xray yesterday to assess my spine health and results show I don't have an acute fracture anymore and there is no sign of cancer in the bones now either! YAY!! The other thing that happened in the past couple weeks is that I've started getting random ocular migraines, so they did an MRI of my head to make sure the cancer hasn't spread to my brain, and those results were clear also. So YAY!!! On Tuesday, I had my maintenance treatment, and the oncologist told me that my cancer is under very good control and I'm really doing great, so I'm very happy about that. Next CT scans will be in June.

    Enough about cancer,.. I'm sorry...I don't want to be someone who comes on here and just complains about my aches and pains. It's just such a big part of my life right now and over the past 6 months it's almost all-consuming. I really want to find a way to move past it being the center of my life! So depressing!

    So, my goal now is to adapt to a healthier lifestyle....moving more, building up my strength, cleaning up my eating (more whole foods vs the yummy processed stuff that I love so much), more water, better rest, less anxiety, more peace. I want to get back to a normal routine life, and this thread is such a big part of that to me and has been for many years! I think maybe 2015 or 2016 Joan first started this thread?

    I hope everyone is doing well! I can't wait to read and catch up! Our yard is nice and green now, lilacs are blooming, as well as the Lily of the Valleys! I love those... Hopefully we can plant some tomatoes and other veggies soon. It's raining buckets right now, but it's supposed to be near 80 all weekend. :)

    Just for Today, 5/16:
    1. 24H food plan:
    * L- avocado/tomato toast, pear.
    * D - taco salad or bean burrito. chips & salsa. fruit.
    * Sn - Vegs & dip. Fruit. Nuts. Toast. Something sweet for Dessert.
    2. Assess yesterday's 24H food plan
    3. 64 oz water before 6:00 pm
    4. Journal
    5. Close 2 activity rings on Apple watch
    6. PT exercises
    7. Love on my home & family: Laundry, floors, dust.
    8. Start sewing B's quilted pillow covers. Listen to audible book? Podcast?
    9. Evening Routine: Brush, floss. Face cleanse. Lotion. Devotionals. Gratitude Journal. Prayer Journal.

    2024: Healthy, Happy & Grateful. Today, I choose peace over worry.

    @PackerFanInGB so glad you are feeling better and that the scans show no cancer in your bones or brain.
    That is amazingly good news.

    Your yard sounds lovely. Good luck getting some veggies planted.

    THINK before I eat ✅
    Log everything ✅
    Stay in the green ✅
    PF exercises ✅
    Back exercises ❌

    Pleased with how it went yesterday. There were several times when I might have eaten something unnecessary, but I thought about it and stopped myself. I also shopped and bought a few things for evening meals, which is where I usually fall down. I need to remind myself every day of all the health reasons I'm doing this!

    JFT Friday 17th

    I weighed this morning. Seems I've put back on 2 of the 3 pounds I lost in April. Frustrating.

    JFT Thursday
    - work by 8:00 :smiley:
    - Meetings 8-10, 11-12, 1-2, 5-6 & 6-7 :smiley:
    - Pick up Tim and visit for a few. :smiley:
    - Grocery :smiley:
    - Dinner :smiley:
    - Home :smiley:
    - Sleep :smiley:

    Yesterday was long, but okay. Did finally go to the grocery store. I think we bought more alcohol than food, but we did get the staples.

    Another late night at work, that I am not looking forward to. I came in an hour late, so that the 4 extra hours at the end won't seem as bad. It says something about my habits when the attendant at the gas station knows my schedule well enough to comment about me being late for work.

    Tim is getting really tired of not being able to drive. He said he might buy a car today. I reminded him that he wasn't supposed to drive, but I don't think he cares. He can drive left handed, which is fine as long as there are no incidents where he needs to swerve to avoid something.

    JFT Friday
    - Work by 9:00 :smiley:
    - Catch up with MFP & FB :smiley:
    - Maybe go out for lunch
    - Mom's this afternoon to sort bills
    - In-laws after work
    - Dinner
    - Home
    - Bed

    Happy Friday! It’s going to be a beautiful day here. My husband and son will be going to clear trees for a driveway on our lot up north. I decided not to go with them because I’d just be in the way and I don’t want to sit in the car for hours…so I’ve got my list of things to do here instead. But I’ve already got FOMO about not going with them…I don’t much like being left out of day trips. 😂

    Yesterday I went grocery shopping with Tim for the first time since last October! I was happy to feel strong enough to go with him, but I remembered quickly that I hate grocery shopping! There’s that FOMO again…. 😉

    Have a great day everyone!

    Happy Saturday! I hope everyone is having a great weekend! It's absolutely gorgeous here in Green Bay today. 81 degrees right now.

    I'm attending Day 2 of the Body Image No BS virtual camp today, but I'm multi-tasking. I have the audio playing through a speaker so I can do other stuff while I listen vs sitting and watching all the videos and coaching sessions. It's been pretty interesting.

    This weekend is our neighborhood rummage sale and I'm really fighting the urge to go wander and look. But my husband said "Honey, their tables are full of *kitten* we already have in our house. We could put a table of the same kind of crap out in the driveway...we don't need it." So there's that... ;)

    Have a good one!

    Hey all, not been posting much, been super busy!

    The weather's nice here, we let the kids have a day off school on Friday so we could go stay at ash's parents for night.

    Sask was having trouble at school with a bit of bullying and I just thought we could all do with the break! I rang the school and said we were all poorly from a dodgy takeaway 😂😂

    Marley has her ADHD assessment tomorrow and I'm bricking it. I don't feel very prepared but it's hard to prepare for the unknown. But I know my daughter well enough and I might just jot down some notes to help me out during the assessment.

    @PackerFanInGB So sorry I haven't replied to your message yet but I will do asap! Not had two minutes to myself. Twice I've been mid-reply and had to stop 😂😂

    Lives in Missouri. I love to garden, go for long walks, quilt, sew charity stuff. My goal is to stay as "young" as I possibly can... to not only look good, but to feel good, have energy, be able to continue to get up and down gardening, biking, and walking.
