First daily check in thread started!

I think I am realizing that I feel really good about listing my plans for eating here, including all food and snacks, instead of logging every single ingredient/food i eat all day. It feels more like “intuitive eating” which is something I’m very interested in learning more about….Good Measures seems like a…[Read more]

My week is starting off different than what I was planning in my head.  DIL called and my 3 year old granddaughter is sick so I will be staying with her tomorrow.   But that gives me time to plan my meals and make my grocery list while she is napping.  🙂

I found a 2017  daily planner on clearance and purchased it last week so that I can wri…[Read more]

Food-wise I’m sorta winging it. My fridge was on the fritz for a few days. Just long enough for my milk, eggs, cottage cheese and some other stuff to go bad. I didn’t have the wherewithall to grocery shop again this week so I will have to do that.

Other parts of my plan:

• Monday: I’m going to follow the 5k plan by walking 2.5 miles during my…

So our first FNC Self Assessment is OVER!

I hope you guys don’t hate me too much. 😉

By my count, there were six of you who let me know that you finished it by the 15th and so that’s who went into the pot of the prize drawing and the winner is:

I didn’t forget! Life just gets ahead of me every now and again.

I waited until I could go through and see who all did plans every week of the mini-Pledge. (I didn’t hold it against you if you didn’t do that final, “add-on” week. That was something I sprung at the last moment!)

Congrats to:

You are the prize winner. I…[Read more]

I’m hoping this week will be a little less stressful than last week. Did lots of planning and partial prepping of meals for the week. So this week my plan is:

1. Follow through with my written daily schedule I set up for this week which includes all obligations as well as what needs to be done to finish preparing dinners.
2. Work on my 5k training,…

Well this week is going to be nuts … meetings every day after school so a plan is most definately necessary.  First, my hubby is away for work so I don’t have to feed him (whoo hoo) so my food will be easier.  I am prepped for breakfasts, lunches, snacks and dinners.  I just need to “stick to the plan”. I do have a dinner meeting tomorrow wh…[Read more]

My eating goal for this week is to get 90 grams of protein a day.  I averaged 72 grams this week because of my “don’t care” attitude.

Activity will be physical therapy every day. The therapist will come to the house 3x and the rest will be on my own.

For wellness  I  will be making an appointment for a long overdue pap test. I’m also going to…[Read more]

Resting mostly today. My stomach isn’t right and my entire shoulder and neck area is a mangled knot of muscle tension.

My fridge broke (got it fixed) and thus all perishables are now spoiled. Sigh. Always something, like I said.

Not sure of eats yet but I’m gonna take a long walk today and clear my head. I just need some quiet.

Looking forward…[Read more]
