It’s a nice day for a competition on horseback10 -
A friendly competition on horseback at a gallop. The rider has to put a slender rod through a tiny ring hanging from a rope.
There were at least 20 local riders in the contest9 -
Thank you for these beautiful pictures Don Ricardo!3

Decided to eat dinner for lunch and vice-versa tonight. However, my Dad then surprised us by saying he'd cook a delicious yet not healthy dinner. I didn't want to offend him or have him worry over me, so I ate the dish he cooked instead. Although I came pretty close to going over my daily carb limit for the first time, I learned an important lesson: make sure to know who is cooking and when so I know how to budget my carbs. Got in my exercise.7

What an epic day! After a long 9 months of injury and surgery and recovery and transplant and complications, I rolled with coach today! I wanted it to be with him because I was a bit scared of how it would go. I'm super weak and unfit and my shoulder is not fully unfrozen yet, but it was awesome, even though I know he totally let me do everything. If he put any resistance, I was stuck, but it's just so good to be moving again. Jiu Jitsu is a full body workout so getting in some time regularly will get me fit and strong! I also went to class but didn't do much there as I was too tired. I even had to stop technique as I was a bit light headed. Nearly an hour with coach is a good workout for anyone, for my fitness level, it was a lot!
Good food choices and just under my lowest limit. Got some delicious berries and after a good lunch of chicken stirfry, supper was berries, yogurt and protein powder!
I'm confident that by the end of the year, I'll be rolling regularly with ease and a good bit lighter. I only need to drop about 8-10kgs to get to the weight I'm aiming for.8 -

Exercise: Yes, managed a 30-minute walk during my lunch hour, glorious sunshine, 18°! after I'd eaten my pre-prepared lunch of lettuce, green beans, kidney beans, sweetcorn and tomatoes. Another 30 minutes tonight to see a dance performance. The Christmas lights are up in town, lovely festive atmosphere.
Calories: Yes, under. Had also pre-prepared supper as I knew I'd come home starving.
Tracking: Yes, logged everything.

Pass #3! An hour of Pilates and an hour of yoga. I had lunch with a my favorite ex room mate and we went for a long walk. I’m sure I’m good on calories but I didn’t weigh or log at the time and I’m sure I’m distorting the portions in my mind.
Luckily I’m not a big fan of Thanksgiving dinner so I might make it to the end of the month.5 -
( Ignore this very same post on 11/25 - oops, wrong day) -
I went to the Y today for a rare afternoon swim followed by the avowed upper body strength training. Yes, I got in 1600+ meters in the but pool, but darn! The women's center (a small room with leftover equipment) was closed for maintenance! I returned to the main workout floor and tried to hang with the oversized men, grunting, panting and throwing giant weights around, but I just couldn't do it. Way too intimidating! I came home to bodyweight knee push-ups and a few stretchy band pulls. A feeble effort, but I did it. Calories and tracking are good.

@RangerRickL - I think that top photo has the bluest sky I've ever seen. I love the game! Did you get a try?
@Dory_42 - way to go! I know little of your sport but I'm glad to hear of such progress!

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes,three 40 minute walks today for a total of 2 hours. DH & I took Annie with us on the first walk alongside Clinton's Ditch. Walked to and from a local Morgan horse farm today, as well, to visit for a bit prior to walking back.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, on target. The best laid plans of having a large deficit prior to Thanksgiving didn't materialize, though.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.
@RangerRickL a/k/a Don Ricardo...enjoying your lovely photos. Looks beautiful where you are. We did have a 60 degree day here in western NY today which made it very pleasant to be outside for walks.3 -
That orchid (?), is gorgeous. Exercise: Yes. A peaceful 50 minute walk. Took the time to enjoy the sun on my face, the scent of fallen leaves and woodsmoke. A lovely day.
Calories:Yes, under
Tracked:Yes

Yes x3
exhausted, but i felt way better today than yesterday so i finally mopped the house (been putting it off for 2 months, it's too much work for me to wanna deal with), a good 2+ hours of deep cleaning up on my feet (looots of upper body movement from moving the mop) and everything is sore now (while the house is pretty small, there's a lot of floor space, and i went over the floors 3 times).
but cooked dinner, made dessert, got laundry done & the dishes after all the other stuff was done so i conquered the day strong & productive 💪 and did some stretches/yoga to loosen up my tight back which helped tons.
tomorrow's mission is Thanksgiving prep (the pie, casseroles, homemade bread rolls, turkey brine) so on Thanksgiving day it's just throw stuff in the oven to heat up after turkey is done cooking 👌🍞🍗🍠🥧🍽️🍂💖2 -
