@HASWLRS and @ZuWainah
I used to get shin splints every time I ran, sometimes even just when I walked. With compression sleeves my legs have been SO much better. I definitely still need to stretch after a warm up, after a workout, and throughout the day if my calves feel tight, but I have had NO shin splints since starting to wear the compression sleeves.
P.s. I got mine from Amazon for fairly cheap and they come in some cute colors and patterns. Ha. This is not a paid endorsement.

Weigh day: Tuesday
Previous Week: 216.2
Current weigh-in: 215.9
Loss: -0.3lb
My weight was lower after my last weigh in, but I went back to work yesterday, so I think some retention was expected for today's Weigh-In. Happy to still show a loss from last Tuesday, though!
@cmhubbard92, it may be a small loss, but it looks so much bigger now that the second number is a five!!
My mistake posting my weigh-in in the other thread! I had a notification for it, and thought I was in June's! I'm going to remove the bookmark for it, so I don't keep getting notifications for it!2 -
@susanpiper posted this on Sunday.
Weigh in 125.4. Sorry guys, antibiotics are messing with me. See you in June!
Megan, did you forget that your weigh-in day is now Friday? Did you want to weigh-in on Friday this week, or shall I use this one?
@haswlrs I thought I had to do one last Sunday one, yes, I will weigh in on Friday. Thanks! Although possibly TMI, but the antibiotics did not seem to help my mastitis, so I'm calling the doctor today to see if there is something else that will work. I'm about to throw in the towel on breastfeeding if this doesn't get better soon!1 -

Monday, June 4th Mini Challenge
Tracked: Yep
Under Calories: Yep
Exercise: 3 mile run
Total Steps: 17,804
It was one of those days that I kept making up excuses to not run, or to put it off until tomorrow, and then I just sucked it up and did it and I had a great run. I felt strong, and I needed the endorphins mentally after a tough week. I have to remind myself sometimes that it might take extra motivation to get out the door, but I never regret going for a run, it always feels great upon completion.5 -
Also, I start training for my half-marathon next week
I haven't done a race since right before I got pregnant with my now 10 month old. That was my first half, and I had a time of 2:04, so I'm really hoping to go sub-2 with this one. 3 -
so confused, i know i had posted things...
Weekly Challenge
Day: Sunday
Tracking: Nope
Calories: Not likely, nope.
Exercise: Yes! 5k. Woot.
Day: Monday
Tracking: Yes
Calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes - an hour plus of walking with brody
@HASWLRS definitely aiming for under 50 - i looked at the official results and it was actually 49 and change! Woot! By the end of summer I'm shooting for 13 min miles which is a bit of a stretch, but doable. Next scheduled 5k is end of September and I think it's the inflatable one
What kind of fun things does everyone have planned for their summer? I'm thinking about a two day kayaking trip in the Shenandoah's in August for my friend's birthday. It's ambitious but sounds like a good time.2 -

@susanpiper57, that is so inspiring!! And it is so true...no one ever regrets a workout or a run!! Good luck with the half marathon training!!2 -

@enyagoboom, My husband and I did a lot of travelling last year, so we are lying low this year. We do have four nights in Nova Scotia for a conference, and there is a lot of touring around the countryside so that will be nice. A Halifax harbour dinner cruise one night and a meal at Peggy's Cove another night are the highlights.
And you are right...your planned trip does sound both ambitious and fun!!

6/3
Mini Challenge
Tracked: yes
Under: Yes, by just 16 calories
Exercise: Yes, 2 miles treadmill running
Sun: no
Mon: yes
I was quite please with myself yesterday. There was more snacking than planned but I tracked everything and when it came time for dinner, I just measured really carefully to stay under my calorie goal. The difference in the meal I would usually have had and the measured one was significant. But the measured one really did fill me up and it makes me realize the usual portion is just too much and more than I need.4
