Runners that need some nutritional accountability

I weighed in on Saturday and the scale gave some interesting measurements. I think it might be because of bloating/water retention. Garmin says its my period time and I have symptoms but no actual flow. It's the last year of my implant so it's usually a bit odd.
I gained 2 pounds but my body fat went down about 13%. I don't know what to think of that. I was going to weigh in Sunday but forgot. I might hop on tomorrow or just wait until my usual Saturday weigh in.
I know I didn't eat enough to really gain 2 pounds but workout clothes were tighter than usual on Sat/Sun so definitely thinking more bloat/water retention than actul weight.2 -
Good morning!
Another weekend gone!
@shanaber I teared up when I read about your run, so upsetting and deflating. So glad though you hopefully have an end / healing in sight!
I took the ADHD test too... I got zero LOL... I am just unmotivated and lazy LOL
The weekend wasn't busy at all, I even asked DH if it was TOO lazy LOL. We went up to the ranch and I worked on the trailer, dumping all the tanks and such. No signs of mice, but I parked it on the other side of the property and it often takes them a minute to find it. We discovered we forgot to turn on the mouse noise thing so it on now.
I cleaned out half the garage and so DH can park the tesla in there away from the sprinklers and we have a cover for my car. I only need it if I am home before 4pm. I also picked an area in the house to deep clean, the hall. I wiped down walls and base boards and scrubbed the floor from all of Grey Cats drooling spots.
DH and I looked at design stuff for the house. I am surprised at how much I despise it LOL. We started with just picking a room and working on it till it was done. We started easy with guest rooms, just paint, lighting, flooring. He is doing the great room and has some cray cray ideas...this AM it was in floor lighting. I looked like some sort of resort pool ... not a living room. I asked him about his he-shed and he said he still wants it, but I am standing firm on not doing it...I have been working on everything else, he can handle his he-shed.
We got the BIO report back on the ranch...such a racket of non-sense. They misidentified coyote bush for sage bush (not an issue, neither are protected in anyway). They said we have badgers, we have NEVER had badgers in the area. And my favorite? an "aquatic feature" that needs more evaluation...dude is the water run off from when we dug the dang well. No one has ponds in cali...what would we fill it with?
Started tracking calories today, got on the scale and .5lb away from my highest weight EVER...even after I just joined the and lived off of take out chinese and pepsi for 6 months. DH is on board, I hope he is strong enough to rein me in LOL. He says we are having salads for lunch...humph.
Have a great week!

Sounds like things are progressing @CMorning99 . Funny about your "water feature.".
@RunsOnEspresso I keep thinking my extra pounds are water retention, but after a month... probably not. Sounds like we all need to do a little bit better with intake.0 -
Morning all.
Well woke up with mild chest pains. Sigh. So cements I over did it yesterday. My best friend, who is a GP, was very unimpressed with me haha. I got a very stern talking to. So nothing strenuous till the end of the month. Then I can slowly get back into things. Not even allowed to strength train. I'm allowed to cycle to work as long as I actually use the E function of my E bike lol.
I laugh but that's so I don't cry.
I'm waking up early anyway so got up and cross stitched and watched YouTube. I might keep the early morning schedule so I don't get used to sleeping in. And I can enjoy some quiet before everyone gets up.

I'm so sorry it has hit you so hard @Avidkeo . Can you go out for a nice long walk, as long as you don't go too fast?1
-
Kevin is back!He's defiantly calmed down. He does better with the barking. I went the car to get something, the passenger side seatbelt is buckled cuz Kevin sets off the "buckle passenger" alarm. He climbs in there and tucks himself behind the seatbelt waiting to go. He usually get in, but the seatbelt is new. He just leans back, settling in patiently. Think tomorrow I'll send him to day care. He's great with drop it, and good with stay for about 30 feet. He's not tearing stuff up, Beary's play sheets packing paper, shoes, etc.
he looks like a gator when he does this.
ETA Before training I thought Kevin was a bit thick, but couldnt discern if it was build or puppy. He's trimmed down a bit, but has grown and is about too tall for the doggie door. he has a nice tuck. Do you think he should be lean enough to see ribs on a stretch? I have reservations restricting him too much since he is growing. but he is 9 months now and I expect him to lean out at this point. Thoughts?
@shanaber can you swim (ish)? Stationary bike? treadmill/walk? use a sling to support the arm?
@CMorning99 I think you were too lazy to cheat! haha! For real though, I find the increase in dopamine helps with motivation. You have so much going on and you seem to stay motivated, maybe just exhausted rather than lazy, girl. I think I am in a state of burn out. I dun wanna do nothin'.1 -
@quilteryoyo my weight (and measurements) have been slowly moving in the right direction and body fat % was staying in line with weight. Not sure it's my intake. Definitely feels like something weird/one-off but I guess I'll see when I weigh in on Saturday again LOL1
-
Good morning!
@swenson19d I don't know what I am LOL
Nothing too exciting here. Was busy at work yesterday getting our guy out the door next week for their deployment (we had 10 days notice).
Nothing new on the house. Nothing new on the property. Nothing new on the case.
Today is day 3 of tracking calories, I am keeping them at 1650 and I haven't starved to death. I haven't done any exercise. I planned on it this AM but my Garmin was at 5% and we all know how I feel about running without my Garmin LOL
Weight dropped 2lbs...but we all know what was fake LOL
Nothing exciting today. I do have a "search hack-a-thon" hosted by the reselling platform that is mis-behaving. The hosted a "fireside chat" about 2 weeks ago and everyone said it was useless and they didn't explain any of the changes they are making and they swear that sales are up. I listened to some other much smarter resellers (prior CEOs and business people) and they think that the platform either threw too much money at the programming when they went to public and broke it or it is working and now they are actually making more sales but they are more dispersed among the platform users (aka they removed all the "gaming the visibility algorithm" hacks. So we have no idea what they are going to say.
Well, best get to work. Finally kinda understanding what I do...just so many data points I need to remember.1 -
Been reading and liking or hugging as appropriate. I've just not had a lot of time to write when I'm home... plans keep changing. I'm trying on my phone, while the daycare kids are sleeping, but am so slow. And, I tend to hit the wrong button and lose my post, which really irritates me. Doing okay. No news from the neurologist yet. Haven't seen the results on line yet either.
This is teacher appreciation week, so the board of directors are feeding us to keep us happy. 🤣😂. Today is ice cream for snack.1 -
@quilteryoyo Ugh, I hate that part of the app. I wish they would fix that!1
-
@avidkeo - hope you are feeling better and taking it easy to get back into things slowly. Are you back to work now?
@swenson19d - So glad Kevin is home! He looks like he is really happy to be home too! That is so funny about the seatbelt! Hobbes knows with me he has to put his harness on and with dh he doesn't... Will he duck down to go through the doggy door? Hobbes is taller than his door but scrunches down to go through it.
@quilteryoyo - You have really had a tough time with your internet. I cannot use the app and think I would be considerably less active if I had to do all this on my phone or through the app. It will be interesting to see what the new changes are that they are advertising for the new dashboard. I am not holding my breath for much though.
Also I hope you are feeling ok. Saw on your newsfeed post that you weren't feeling well and I hope it is nothing more than being tired and working too much without eating much.
I saw the PT today and he was very encouraging. Basically he thinks much of the pain I am having is muscular. He worked on my triceps today and OMG it was painful but felt better afterwards. He said there are no limitations on what I am doing. I can lift, I can run... My arm may hurt but it is not indicative of the break necessarily. He said I have been protecting my shoulder very well (not a compliment) and that I need to stop it. I have exercises to do multiple times daily and we are focused on relieving pain and increasing range of motion at this point. Next will be restoring strength. He is optimistic that I won't need surgery. Also he is a runner too but now mostly a cyclist and knows all the areas where I run.

Am back at work. I have to take things slowly or I get really breathless and get chest pains.
I'm working evenings this weekend, and ED has been very nice to me. The nurses are really helping with bringing me patients etc. I have to go very very slow. So far my first night has been fine.
Thinking of you all.2 -
@shanaber I'm glad your PT appointment went well. Sorry he fussed at you for "babying" your arm. I would too. Who wants to do something that hurts...and didn't the ortho tell you to stop if it hurt? Anyway, I'm glad you were able to get some relief and good news and hope you are able to do more with a lot less pain!
Yes, my internet is such a pain in the behind. Lately, it seems okay in the morning, but goes out from about 5 - 7 pm, which is when I like to check in with everyone.
I am feeling better today and never actually "got sick." I did have a low grade fever last night - like 99F. I know for most people that's not even a fever and doesn't count, but mine is normally 97.5, so it is a fever for me and I can feel it.
@Avidkeo I'm glad the nurses at work are helping you out. Chest pains sound really scary. I hope you get back to normal soon!
I did see my MRI results on the patient portal yesterday, or the day before. Anyway, it's very technical, but the best I can tell my eye orbits are "unremarkable" which I assumes is a technical term for normal and nothing to remark about. LOL The brain one showed "White matter findings are very mild and could be from mild chronic microvascular ischemic changes or sequela of from vasospasm associated with migraine headaches." " Few punctate foci of increased FLAIR signal involving subcortical white matter right frontal and right parietal lobes. Largest focus is 2 mm in diameter. There are no other areas of abnormal signal." That's good news....nothing neurological going on - like a tumor or anything. Now to figure out why I am having the visual migraines again, I guess. Even though, they are getting less frequent and I haven't had any double vision since March 24th. Maybe it's all just lingering affects from the heart surgery and CoVID.1 -
Good morning!
It has been busy but mundane here at work. Just still getting all the paperwork done to get our deployers out the door...and they like to argue with us LOL
I has my dermatologist appt yesterday and it seems I chose poorly. On our insurance provider list you can sort providers by "recommendation" and that is what I went off of...I was early and googled the group and they had 2.5 stars. Most were about how they are understaffed at the front desk and one about the doctor I saw being "rushed". I checked in and the ladies up front were nice enough, although I had to spell it out I needed to sign a release b/c my records needed to go back to my PCM. I saw they had the faxed records from my PCM printed out. I then got rushed to a room without finishing my paperwork and asked about 4 questions and handed me a gown. As I was changing I could hear the doctor outside the door waiting for me to change. He came in quickly asked if I had any history of issues (uh, did you read my records I sent?...Obv not). As he looked at 1/4 of my scalp he went on this generic speech about what moles look like (probably does that so he can charge the insurance for counseling)...he glanced over my arms and legs...didn't look under my bra strap and said he had a mole he wanted to take. I told him it has been there for 10 years with no change (my old good doc just took pictures every visit and it never changed). He seemed surprised I knew what I was talking about and said something about we should check anyway...pretty sure he was padding his bill. He stabbed me with numbing, my old Doc had the magic touch where you didn't even feel the numbing sting and could have a mole off in 3 seconds. This guy fussed and fussed since he didn't get a clean swipe of the razor. The nurse then said if I don't hear anything, the mole was fine and walked out the room. I was left sitting there in a gown stunned and not sure if we were done. I got dressed, left my paperwork on the exam table and walked out.
Today at work has been a technology thrash...I am so bad with trouble shooting. Not to mention they have everything locked down on admin only so you can't fix anything anyway....and then the IT guy is gone.
So far I have been successful with staying at 1650 calories a day, today is the first day where I am hungry, not starving, but hungry at meal times. No exercise all week though. Weight is holding steady after the 2lb drop on Tuesday. I am going to give it another week and see if I lose anything at this level...prob should add in exercise too.
Nothing exciting for the weekend. There is a work BBQ, but doubt there will be much turn-out. They moved from a Friday afternoon to a Saturday so not much incentive for the airmen to go. And the commander did not authorize alcohol so the old timers plans of margaritas were dashed too. I have not committed to going. I should go to "lead the way" but I have not made friends here and it would be me at a table.
I hope everyone has a good weekend!
1 -
@CMorning99 Sorry about your bad experience with the dermatologist. Sounds awful. Sounds like you are doing great with your food intake. Maybe you can make friends if you go to the BBQ? if you want to make friends.0
-
@CMorning99 that appointment sounds awful!
@quilteryoyo glad you got your MRI results and there isn't anything too scary, though doesn't help figure things out.
Day 2 of shift. So far the weekend had been OK. Only had 9 patients all shift, got to watch a movie - the eyes of Tammy Faye. I am NOT religious in any way, it was a really interesting watch. She seems like an amazing person. I can absolutely see how she was a LGBTQ+ icon!
I hope the rest of the weekend continues like this!2 -
Thanks @Avidkeo . Glad your weekend is going well! Fingers crossed it stays that way.1
-
@quilteryoyo - glad you got your MRI results and everything looks pretty good. Interesting though that they can see markers for/from migraines.
@Avidkeo - I hope the chest pains go away! That is so scary and would certainly freak me out! I have heard of the movie but not watched it. May need t check it out.
@CMorning99 - I have had a couple of experiences with dermatologists that are similar to yours. Not sure why they are such a-holes. One women who had come pretty highly recommended sat and argued with me about whether or not my father had melanoma. I finally asked her if she wanted me to get my stepmom on the phone to discuss what her husband's diagnosis was and she backed down. I never went back. I have a wonderful dermatologist now and see him yearly for my check up. I hope the mole comes back fine - sounds like it will.
I hope the BBQ turns out and you go and enjoy yourself. It may surprise you that others want to come and sit and interact with you. If not, too bad for them and you have gotten a free, hopefully enjoyable meal... Also what about some virgin margaritas? Might still be fun and taste delicious?
After much hemming and hawing I got out for a run/walk and it ended up pretty good. I am doing the PT exercises for my arm 3x/day and one round is part of my pre-run warmup. Boy do they hurt. I have been doing them on both sides just to be consistent but it also shows me how far I have to go.
Last night we got dinner from Waba Grill - a teriyaki type chain. It was pretty good but when I went to log it I was shocked at how much sodium it had! Yikes! Not surprisingly, my weight was way up today... Tonight one of our new neighbors is having a 'fiesta' and has invited us over for tacos. Should be fun!
Speaking of neighbors - while out with Hobbes today I was stopped by some other neighbors complaining about the people who moved into Hilde's house. The guy that bought it has 'short term' renters in it and he hasn't paid the gardener so the gardener hasn't cut the lawn in over a month. Its a mess. I wanted to tell these people who live on other streets that they are fortunate - they don't have to look at it every day, we can't avoid it. I'm thinking about taking some pictures and sending them to the owner and letting him know about the complaints. Why pay so much money for a house and then let it deteriorate so badly. I just don't understand.
1 -
Thanks @shanaber . I thought it was interesting that they could see that I had chronic migraines too. It seems that most restaurant food is loaded with sodium. I was shocked at how much Applebee's low calorie menu items have! I hope you enjoy your fiesta tonight. You probably should take pictures of Hilde's house to send to the owner. He should check on it, but since he isn't, he needs to know what is happening.0

Violin recital was okay. I'll pass on sharing it. But will offer a cute video of Kevin and Taters playing.
https://youtu.be/HFcdv4eQITY
I have all of May to focus on violin, dogs, cats, & cleaning.
Cori goes to the vet this AM. He hurt from fighting. I'll have to make him come in in the evenings. He's been good about coming in on his own, figured last night it'd be no different. He won't let anyone touch him, but drank milk and will purr with gentle pets. I'll set a live trap for the stray male that is causing havoc and have him neutered and release him... unless it appears that he could be rehomed.
@shanaber the trainer got most of the bark out of Kevin. He's allowed 2 barks and no more. We (I) haven't been able to contain it to 2 when he is in protective mode. Runs outside like a mad man after the wind barking with the depth of a baritone titan. She has gotten him to calm down too. I have no idea how you communicate all this in 3 weeks to a dog. He still struggles barking at people when he is in the car/truck. It makes me giggle, so I won't be of any use getting that out of him. I may try taking him places in a parking lot to work with him. But not knowing how the trainer does it, it's hard to add to or reinforce it.
DH & I had a heart to heart. It had become apparent to him that he was an a hole. So, we'll see if he can make improvements. I told him that I'd send him to the dog trainer for 3 weeks if it'd help.3 -
@swenson19d Will the trainer work with you? Seems like she would want you to know how to reinforce Kevin's learning. Glad your recital is over. Also glad DH realizes he's not being very nice. How's his elbow?0
-
@quilteryoyo Yes I can ask the trainer. I asked her various questions about every other day. We do have a follow up with her for an hour. I think that is after Sandy is trained. Dh's elbow is healing. The incision isn't closed yet and its been 4 weeks. Doc wasnt concerned. He mowed the yard yesterday, on the riding mower and he said he was fine. I was surprised. I figured that kind of vibration would hurt. It did when I thought the massager would be a good idea for my leg.1

Good afternoon!
Another day another dollar.
Weekend was unremarkable. We had huge winds 65+ knots and a couple trees went down. DH and I took the truck back up the ranch after spending $185 to fill it's tank. Ran some errands and grabbed lunch at a meh sushi place, our restaurants are just so so here. I came home and took a 3 hr nap and then went to bed early. Sunday the winds raged on so we just stayed inside and cleaned around the house.
I have been rather unmotivated at work. Unfortunate since have quite the to-do list. Nothing hard, just boring stuff. I pushed through some tasks that were overdue, oops, and then futz'd around reading old blogs LOL. I got up to 2015 where I was in a similar funk.
I skipped tracking all weekend and the scale was way up again this AM. I was also quite dehydrated which means higher weight for sure. I was going to add a layer onto my renewed habits, but alas, it seems I am just going to try again with counting...but not today. I was stressed, I was having anxiety about money. After I spent all that money on the gas and then did some shopping, fun stuff for me, the reality of retirement and a low paycheck hit. I had myself a solid first world pity party.
It is all very stupid as today I was offered another job post retirement, IDK. It is a teaching job which I would be good at, but right now, nothing sounds good. It will all work out for sure. I just need to chill out LOL. I think mentally I am already in vacay mode even though I have 11 more days.
Tomorrow we try again...cause these pants .. oof.0 -
Oh @swenson19d I love that video of Kevin and Mallory! He is just so gentle with her! The parking lot sounds like a good idea. I would just use whatever command you have been using to limit his barking otherwise and reward when he does. I would love to know how she got him to calm down too. Maybe I could use it on Beaux when he is here. He is really calm when Hobbes isn't around but thinks he needs to play/roughhouse constantly otherwise. He just needs an off switch for when we come in the house.
Glad you had a good conversation with your dh. Hope he doesn't have to go see the away trainer... do you remember that old Doris Day movie where she used a dog training book to train her husband 😂😂
@CMorning99 -wow we had winds but nothing like that. I hear they are coming again up your way in the next few days if you believe the forecasters. I think retirement may be ok for you especially if you have the house finished. I was surprised at how far SSI goes and we don't really have much of a house payment any more. You can make it work I am sure.
I am finally down a couple of pounds after gaining I think from all that salt. I had the leftover teriyaki for dinner tonight but it really didn't taste good reheated so I didn't eat much of it. I was low on calories with all my activity today and I have been hungry at night several times lately so I decided to have a protein drink. I usually just have it as my post run snack but I needed something that wasn't terrible, like cookies or the cheese cake dh bought for mother's day. Hopefully the extra protein will help.
I have PT tomorrow and then we are going to get our 2nd booster. We were going to go today but dh misplaced our vaccination cards. He looked all afternoon and did not find them so who knows where they are. Fortunately I saved pictures and also pulled down the 'smart' card the state provides electronically so we don't actually need the paper cards. He was sure he was going to find them and didn't want to go until he did, regardless of having the 'smart' card...1 -
@swenson19d Glad you are working with the trainer. That's one thing I loved about the trainer I had for Tippy. She mostly did house calls and worked with the owners too. She said it's better to let the owners see what needs to be done in their home with actual issues they need to work on. She was amazing. Also glad that DH's elbow is healing. Can you straighten his arm at all?
@CMorning99 I often get unmotivated when my to-do list isn't anything very interesting. Then I do something I've been dreading and putting off for days and it only takes a few minutes and I kick myself for not just getting it done and off my mind. You'd think I would learn, but I usually just rinse and repeat with the next boring task.
I remember having that panic attack about money after my husband passed away. I was fine. Would be fine. But not having his retirement anymore put me in a panic. I had to sit down and do a basic monthly budget to see that everything was going to be okay and I had more than enough savings to cover those months I would spend more that I brought in...until I could get his SS...and then there was the part time jobs that gave me my fun money. You're right. It will all work out. But I think we all go through that panic at some point in our lives. If you want to teach, go for it. Good luck with your weight. You can do it!
@shanaber Yeah for being down a couple of pounds and for you excellent choice when you were hungry last night. I hope PT isn't too painful and you don't have any reaction from the second booster.
We had some storms over the weekend with heavy winds in town. It downed some trees that have stood for years. One was a huge oak, I think, in front of one of the funeral homes. I really hated to see that one go.
Yesterday was a milestone for me...it was an entire year of walking/running at least a mile a day. Last year, on the 9th, was the day that I had the stomach flu and had to break the streak I had started the day I got home from the hospital from my surgery. I'm trying to decide if I want to continue the streak or not. It is very motivating for me to get walks in when I wouldn't otherwise. So, I probably will and just see how it goes.
My weight is staying around 146, which is 11 pounds more than where I was at my lowest. I'm really trying to get back to 140 or below. Just seems like with work life I'm not having time to cook as much as I would like, so wind up eating things that aren't the best for weight loss. I'll figure it out. Just haven't yet. Plus, I'm hoping more running will help too.
0 -
@quilteryoyo he cant straighten it yet, he's at maybe 50 degrees. I told him to expect a year of recovery based on your experience. Hang in there with the weight and try small changes. We have gotten so bad with high fat foods, lasagna, and pizza, that is difficult to enjoy low fat foods. Maybe try some healthier options of the bad foods. Home cooked tacos vs Taco Bell, etc.
@shanaber I recall the movie. I have a hard time letting him be a dog and imposing realistic expectations. Esp. when he is being protective. He scared the daylights out f the UPS driver yesterday. He was in and barked vehemently. I could hear the nervousness in their voice as they shouted "UPS!" haha oh.. oops sorry driver. I try to take Kev out to meet them. but was lazy.
The trainer recommended 2 books. I really haven't done more than thumb through them yet. Canine body language and Mental exercises .1 -
Good afternoon folks!
The day was kinda derailed by IT issues. Boss bought an 82 inch? TV, the damn thing is massive. He wants to use it as a scrolling dashboard of "to dos"...IDK, I like my white boards and sticky notes...not to mention the TV is right behind me...like 2 ft behind me ... and him, so... whatever, it is his project LOL.
Since it was slow I went back thru MPF old group chats back to 2015!...@shanaber remember NTHG Spinoff group? I can't believe I have "known" you for 7 years LOL. Not sure when the group died out, I think I quit in 2018 timeframe.
I was running so hard back then! It was also a 2 year period where I had my worst injuries that took me out for months at a time. I also had friends back then LOL Wow I was busy.
"Forgot" to track calories today. These large curved monitors are still bugging my eyes... the muscles around my eyes feel like I have been clenching them all day. My motivation is still down. Nothing seems to be sparking my interest...running, reselling...meh. One of my besties is going through a divorce and we used to get up and run at 4:45 am, she was telling me how much she is realizing having someone to run with helped her with stress and she said when she quit running with me (we both moved) she said her husband became intolerable (funny, but not funny).
I am in a mood since I am now 11 days out from my vacation and feel like I shouldn't start anything LOL.
Going back and looking at that old group, we used to do star challenges...pick 3 habits you want to work on and you get a start each week you successfully complete the habit consistently...anyone interested? We could start in June.
Well, it is the end of the day ... costco chili for dinner tonight. The boss asked if I am going to the gym in the AM, I probably should.
Have a great evening!1 -
@CMorning99 Sorry you are in a funk right now. I hope your vacation helps. The star challenge sounds interesting. Does everyone work on the same habit or do you pick your own?
Thanks for the advice @swenson19d I'm hoping that exercising more is all I need. If I had the time, I would cook more. I know it's healthier and a lot less sodium. I've gotten bad lately about giving in and buying chips and dip or salsa. That I need to quit and find a better, crunchy alternative. Maye not take an entire year to straighten his arm, but at least 6 - 9 months, I would guess. Of course the location of the break could affect that. Mine was 9 months with exercises every day.1 -
@swenson19d - Did the doctor say when they want him to start trying to move his arm? I imagine if the incision isn't healed they wouldn't want him doing anything yet.
Hobbes goes crazy for the UPS guy too but I think what he really dislikes are the trucks. He starts barking at them before they even stop - I think he must hear them coming. I have seen that they carry treats for the pups but I have never gotten Hobbes out to meet them either. Its one of the things I would do differently if I had the chance to go back and redo things.
@CMorning99 - I haven't thought of that group in a long while. One of the ladies is still on my friend list though. She doesn't interact much, just posts the occasional workout. I do remember the star challenges. @quilteryoyo - each person had their own goal(s) for the month like getting in x number of runs in each week, or strength training, or a food goal. Then we reported on how we did each week - kind of like the running challenge but you update/grade yourself for the week. I found it motivating.
ETA - I went back and checked and I left that group in 2020... there wasn't much activity anymore. Beeps has been continuing to create monthly threads with the latest one this last February.
