    Happy Friday to you all!
    I really appreciate it when you share your life, pets, personal daily challenges, and more.
    @Intrinsicat, a few days ago, used the acronym, NSV, I had to look that up. Google attributed that to Weight Watchers as meaning Non-Scale-Victory.
    The UAC can be used for Scale Victories and Non-Scale-Victrories. Being accountable and living well is for your lifetime. I hope you have lots of NSVs!

    69 minutes slow walking + 30 Day Squat Circuit/Thigh/Plank & Push-Up Challenges. Today I had to make-up my plank from yesterday so this morning I did a 97 second plank and this evening I did a 122 second plank - yes, that's right, a TWO MINUTE PLANK!

    The human body, even as a work in progress, is AMAZING!

    If only MFP let you post pictures from your phone . . .

    This was a mega-exercise/activity day for me. I am an early morning exerciser. Today started with a 25 minute Active Isolated Stretch routine; then 46 minutes of Cardio/Strength intervals which included running, rowing, and biking.
    Tracking was ok. Calories were ok.

    Another super busy day at work. Of course it's only going to get worse with Fall allergy and flu season approaching. I got my flu shot the other day. My arm wasn't even sore. (I was such a big girl, I really wanted the sucker they were giving out! Haha!)
    Did I exercise for 20 minutes? Yes. Only 8,282 steps. It was hard to leave my unit.
    Did I stay within my calorie range. Yes, this was day 3 of my fast.
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes. I still need to up my water intake.
    Have a great weekend, everyone!

    I did all three. Was at a baseball game, lots of fun. Munchies at a game is hard to control your calories. Thank goodness for exercise calories.
