No time to post JFT yesterday.

Got to visit with mom, dad, sister & her hubby, all 3 brothers and their 2 wives, aunt and one niece. <3 JFT M 5/9 1)…

Weekly Weigh-In = When I'm active I eat back calories. My weaknesses: I love food... my sweet tooth, especially chocolate... portion control... FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). Saturday a.m. is my "official" weigh-in day, and I track daily on a separate app (helps me visualize). My digital scale only shows half pound increments…

I had some gastrointestinal issues after supper last night... something didn't agree with me. Then to settle/fill my tummy I ate popcorn and peanut butter.

Weather alert: The sun is shining!!! B) People are definitely in a better mood today. LOL @Anniesquats100 For me, I would never survive on 1100 calories per day, I'd be way too hangry. I always allow myself to eat back exercise calories. In fact, that is how MFP is designed to work, along with your weight loss goal. I have…

Another weekend not posting JFT, and so-so on MFP = not so good eating. Ack. Rainy Sat. so I did PT exercises plus some weights.

@RaquelFit2 Welcome to JFT! The more the merrier. I find posting my goals makes me more intentional (sometimes LOL). @beachwalker99 I'm in for a May exercise challenge! My knee is much improved, so I'm planning to walk dog at least 3 miles on a regular basis again. A challenge will be fun. Recap R 4/28 1) PT exercises…

@littleblackskirt Thanks for the giggle when you misread my post yesterday. It's true! Hugs as you go thru the sale of your parents house. I agree with previous comments on JFT, no need to post comments if you don't have time. I don't often, myself. But I truly enjoy reading all the daily goals & updates of all my JFTers!…

Auditing isn't for everyone. I fell into IA right out of college, and happily, found my niche. Coming up on 42 years!

RSM is our external auditors. I'm an internal auditor, have been my entire career, mostly with financial institutions. Now in a different kind of company.

@biohazardinc Welcome! Posting daily on JFT helps me keep things in check. Not always, but I wonder how off course I'd be without it. LOL @beachwalker99 Losing long-time friends is really hard. Good of you to spend time with your mom. I was recently reminded of a workplace shooting at my employer (it happened on a Sat.…

Late posting today. I spent the morning doing observations & data collection at five locations. Good for my daily steps, already at 8K. Grateful rain held off until I went home for lunch.

MFP is weird. If I want to post a photo on my News Feed, I cannot download & post photos using the MFP website on my computer, but can post photos using the app on my Android phone. Just the opposite to post photos on JFT (and I assume, all the Community). At least I've never been kicked off, that I recall. My hubby…

Spring weather finally cooperated so hubby, dog & I hiked the one mile loop at He-Nis-Ra Park on both Sat. and Sun. It was cold enough to wear my winter coat on Sat. but warmer Sunday. Here's me with very happy dog yesterday. We enjoyed the rarely seen blue sky & sun LOL. My knees were ok until Sun. evening, no surprise…
