Exercise? Yes, one hour + of walking
Calories? Yes
Tracking? Yes
Well, tomorrow is my last first day of school (hopefully for the rest of my life haha). I've already been studying quite a lot this past week to prepare for the first day, so I'm sure it will be a very strenuous year. Already, I'm enjoying coming on here and interacting with all of you, so I hope to keep up with it. I've packed a healthy lunch and snacks for tomorrow and have an early alarm for the gym.
I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend!6 -
Today, the Labor Day holiday, I did work on my farm. My farm projects are fun for me and lots of exercise too.
Exercise: 2.5 hours of cutting wood; two large bonfires; carrying wood to those bonfires and enjoying the outdoors
Calories: under by a very large margin
Tracking: ok6 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes. Walk around Memphis
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
Today we went to the outlaws for a Fish Fry, it was delicious. I haven't seen them since July 4th last year, I need to get to Memphis more often.
Back downtown for the afternoon/evening and ribs at Blues City Cafe. This is a special place as it's where I met my husband. The band was excellent, they're called The Brian Cunnings Band, they play skiffle and have great crowd interaction, I would highly recommend if you're ever down this way.
So a pass day for me today
Pass Day #1
PS.....And I will be wearing white, at last until it gets below 75 degrees!4 -
Yes x3. 40 minutes of kickboxing and abs.
Weigh in day today and was happy to see a pound down, I've been stalled for a few weeks now. I'm ok with a slow loss and elated that I've managed to lose anything over the summer with so much travelling.5 -

I had worried that all my labour over the weekend would interfere with recovery for strength training, and it was worse than I thought. Started my warm up and immediately felt pain behind one knee, so squats and dead lifts were cancelled. I did my bench presses but worried about every little noise my shoulders made. I allowed myself to be 'distracted' watching more video's on form, and trying to decide what the best flexibility exercises might be. I probably should just have done some yoga rather than sitting on a seat moving a mouse.
50 minute brisk lunchtime walk
We had some bad family news in the evening which totally derailed our plans, i missed a planned hour's walking and ended up comfort eating but I was mindful and actually managed to adjust my day around it so I still ended my day ok.
I've disconnected my Garmin and MFP accounts, I have grown very frustrated with the automatic calorie adjustment being applied to my MFP goal, which I regard as very inflated. I'll have to manually log exercise into MFP again, but that's no big deal (and I can be a bit more conservative with the numbers).

yes x3
Spent a couple of days away. My wife and I each lost 5 pounds for August so we rewarded ourselves with an excursion. We stayed in a place called Far View Lodge. From our window or our balcony we could see like 60 miles distant. Possibly more.

Happy to check in with Yes x 3!
Thank you for your kind and motivating words @120maggie and @craigo3154!
Our weather temps really dropped today and we even got a few very welcomed sprinkles of rain. I actually sat outside and let my body soak it up for awhile.
For my exercise, I danced to my newest Zumba DVD. Three years ago I drove into Los Angeles where I took an all day class from Gina Grant. At the end of the fun (and exhausting) nine hours, I had earned my license to teach Zumba classes. I've never used it, but one of the perks is that I receive a new Zumba DVD every other month. I still feel like it is Christmas when I get a new one in the mail!
I was sore in all the RIGHT places today and that felt great!
