My goal for March
- 120 miles
- 10,000 steps 15 days this month
- Control the eating
- water, water, Water
Mar 1 - 2.63 miles
I didn't do that great in February, however I was impressed that I got as many steps in while on vacation. Too bad there was so much food!
March is going to be a challenge, I have income tax to do for several people and our company. My volunteer jobs require a little bit of work, which requires a little bit of sitting. I will really have to get my steps and weight training in early in the day. My goal is to lose 10 pounds by the end of the year so that I can partake in the Million Pound Mission at our Canadian TOPS chapters1 -

Lovely start to the month, dear Lilymay. Thank you.
My goal for this month is 120 miles.
February, I made 98 miles. I will do better this month, even though I am not off to the best start.
My little 14 year old rescue, Ernestine, is pretty far along with kidney disease. There are moments when she is as normal as she can be and the only way you can tell she is sick is if you look at her labs or the wet bed in the morning.
She had been going for sub cutaneous daily (we see the vet today and will have labs drawn and see where we are)*...after a two day stint in the hospital with IVs to flush her kidneys only gave her a brief downward spike in her numbers.
I am heartbroken. We are buying a home in a 55 + beautiful place...four miles from work...with loads and loads of lawns with fountains and ... GOLF COURSES...two of those. Perfect for walking that girl of mine. I pray she has a good quality of life and makes to our new home. THAT is my goal.
I will be working on decluttering the entire place before we move, May 1st.
Wishing everyone a great Spring...let's put Spring into our steps and move move move.
Once again Lilymay, thank you for keeping this challenge going. You are just a dear person. Hugs, nanc
*I just started her on Kidney Support drops, Thursday, from petwellbeing.com A Canadian company. Fingers crossed. Found it one night when looking for anything that would help.0 -
majic Nancy? I hope your move goes smoothly, it sounds like a very nice place. Hugs for Ernestine.1

Majic, I really do hope that girl of yours makes it to your new home, it sounds lovely and I'm sure she would enjoy it.
My March goals are to eat better and lose at least 3 pounds - then I get to treat myself to a new outfit. My step goal is to reach goal everyday (17.5K) and doing some cross fit type workouts 3 times a week.

Ticker is up to date!
Thank you for all the good wishes for my sweet Ernestine. Today I go back to work, after taking my vacation at a moment's notice. I have been off since last Tuesday.
She has stopped losing weight...she is eating ... and goes for walks...no throwing up and no diarrhea ... she goes for sub q fluids daily.
I am up early to get ready so I can get some food in her. That is the hardest part, finding something that ok pretty ok, that she will eat. But so far, we are handing in there.
Thanks again.

The weather was really nice but it has taken a slight turn back to Winter!!
I went hiking with some friends, usually we walk this time it was a real hike 3 hrs, but I was glad I was able to keep up with everyone.

Hello, everyone. I'm new here and hope that by joining, I can get my rear back in gear again. I used to be very active, but a problem with my foot stopped my progress. Before my foot problem, I had lost 35 pounds on MFP, but most of that has been gained back. I've been given the go ahead to start working out, but have to make it a priority again. I just checked my progress on Fitbit's site and I've walked 52.17 miles this month.
I really like the Exercise Ticker that magic71755 has. I'm going to have to look into that.
