    Wednesday check-in

    exercise- recumbent bike, elliptical, weights
    Calories under
    Water over

    5 for 90
    1. Gym 3xs a week- went today
    2. Exercise 30 minutes a day- great gym workout and ok home one. I'm focusing on strength first and made some progress.
    3. Decluttering- filled the garbage can in time to take to curb.
    4. Social media- nightly check in done, did ok today as I kept busy.
    5. Trigger foods- not a problem today, though I went a little nuts when I found a good brand of tea on sale!

    Sleep- I took what I thought was a mint at church Sunday and it was a pair of ear plugs, I tried those instead and don't seem to be allergic to them. Kittens are still waking me when they jump on the bed but the racing around for a few hours I'm sleeping through!

    Random note- if you like anise you have to try roasting fennel, I've been doing it lately with balsamic vinegar. I only had raw before this year. It's so good!

    I'm guessing you go to one of those cool rock concert churches, @Katmary71 !
    I was in one of those the other day funnily enough. One that doubles as an Arts Centre and has comedy gigs! But the drums were all laid out for the service next day. This is it.

    Checking in for Wednesday.
    Calories - apparently red zone on my app, but can only be just. It's coming up as under in the weekly view and yesterday's deficit was 428 calories. I think it goes green at 450.
    Exercise/Steps- 10216
    Water - 13/14

    One thing that has helped me with dehydration is putting Cerasport packets in my water or drinking Propel Water. Both are great at replenishing electrolytes without all the added sugar found in so many sports drinks.

    @hinemoa2088 that's great you went for 30 mins and did the foam rolling! That's what I've been doing.

    The last few days I'm just tired deom work and haven't want to go but I made it. Have done foam rolling/ stretching and very casual walks on the treadmill. But yeah it's better to move a little than not at all.

    Sorry gang burnt out from work. Will post my steps tomorrow.

    @Wishusdonna it's considered Christian music but there are guitar players in the contemporary service music so it may be considered light rock. I'd actually switch to classic if they used their organ, I played for 6 years and love organ music. I listen to a little of everything but my favorite is hard rock so my view may be skewed!

    @bethanie0825 A mountain hike sounds amazing, have a great time! I have a skinny water bottle so I can't add stuff but if yours is bigger flavored water helps. I usually drink lemon water with fresh mint and lemon wedges, sometimes add cucumber. Iced tea is great too, it got me off Crystal Light. Not sure how well those tips are for hiking though! Never heard of Cerasport, I'll have to look for it!

    @AustinRuadhain what is the audiobook you're listening to about?

    @its_cleo Way to go on working out when you haven't been feeling like it, that's hard to do especially when tired.

    @sunshineplace great loss!

    Thursday check-in

    calories- close call but workout saved me from going over!
    Exercise- recumbent bike
    Water- over

    5 for 90
    1. Gym 3xs a week- going tomorrow
    2. Exercise 30 minutes a day- done
    3. Decluttering- none today
    4. Social media- doing check-in, not bad today
    5. Trigger foods- did good as far as sugar. Had lunch out so I skipped breakfast and the salad I got wasn't as filling as my usual, I ended up eating all my calories in protein and fruit in the afternoon and skipped dinner.

    @TeresaW1020 I probably won't be able to update my steps until after the weekend. My Fitbit charger quit working and bc it's an older model, I had to order one off of Amazon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it gets here by Monday. I'm really really hoping my Fitbit lasts thru Saturday for my hike!!!! :#:#
