Exercised?: No. Drone track setup and pack up (over 10,000 steps).
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
Worked across town (over 2 hours driving as unable to use public transport). Although 1km walk to lunch and return and various errands throughout the day, not enough to make for 20 mins dedicated activity.
Really tired and early night.
So this makes pass day #2 for me this month.

Exercised?: Yes. Walked 5km in 38 mins (hills).
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
Worked from home today (shorter commute). Busy day, but managed to get a walk in (and it is very cold outside for what we usually get in Melbourne).
Also got a chance for flying tonight (under-cover car park). Very cold.
@RangerRickL. Apologies for not posting last night early night was 9:30pm. Was falling asleep after dinner and decided sleep was more important.
Beautiful moon picture. Looking forward to warmer weather.

Weights this morning were tough, only to discover I was using the heavier bar so everything was 5kg more than I thought! Will drop squat weight as my firm suffered today. I did so ohp because it was too hard but then ended up doubt the Weight I actually wanted and deadlift was fine even at the heavier weight. The assisted pull up machine was busy so I did hangs from the bar and my hands are suffering now.
Woman's month function at work gave us the afternoon off so I went to Jiu Jitsu early and got in an extra hour or so before class!
Food logged as best as I can due to work lunch and under calories.
Haven't stepped on the scale for a few days because I'm sure it's up from the Weight lifting I'm doing. Trying to give it a couple of weeks to adjust to the new training!6 -

Didn't log today - spent hours practicing. A student from a million years ago came to visit and lent me his bass flute for my upcoming concert. It weighs a ton (thanks to my exercises it is not a problem!) and will take some time to find all of its little secrets. But what a sound!2

@Dory_42. Nice to find when an error has been in your favour. You are stronger than you thought.
I would not worry so much about the scale. It takes time for changes in muscle mass to show (usually a week or two). Each days weight is heavily influenced by cell hydration. The best indications of weight is a 7 day average, not an individual days/mornings weight.
The best indications or health are how the clothes are fitting and how you are feeling. Weight is really only important if you are a fighter (and need to make a weight category) or a jockey.

I'm not too bothered by what the scale says and am well aware of fluctuations, especially as a female. I like to keep an eye on it though as I am a fighter who has to make weight for competition so understanding how my body fluctuates does help me prep for comps better. I only have 5 kgs to get to my goal weight (which is also my ideal fighting weight) so I'm working for a slow controlled drop over time. I hate weight cut before comps so aiming to maintain at fighting weight! My next major competition is early December so I have time to drop the 5 kgs even with any increases brought on by starting with weight lifting!!!!0 -
Yes to all 30
