Stuck! Again!
I bet it's the bananas. *grumble*4 -
I haven't checked in the last few days as I wasn't feeling well, headachey and my stomach has been bothering me off and on. Started feeling better last night so I went to a friend's house and we had hotdogs and marshmallows over the fire. Not healthy physically, but mentally we both needed it. Today seems to be better so far so that's good news.
I plan on preserving some goodies from the garden today, I definitely want to make a batch of dill pickles, and maybe something with some tomatoes, either salsa or just stewed toms 😋4 -

Steps/exercise
08/02 18.23 Km cycling moderate

Am I doing this right? LOL. Besides neglecting my goals for part of the week, and not hitting my step target. This week, I plan to be better.
My first time posting the stats, so not unsure about that.

That’s fine but did you record steps on the other days as well with your phone or a device like a Fitbit? Every step counts. 🙂1 -

I'm always going to post a bit short of reality on Sat. b/c if I wait until after dinner, I'll forget. So I'm posting about 4:00 on Saturday. Let me know if I'm not doing this right!
Michele, I LOVE LOVE LOVE your last post. Thanks for the inspiration! I'm sure not every week will be a loss scale-wise for me either, but I'll keep remembering all those other improvements I'm making... that will surely add up to success in the long run. Hang in there!

Wonderful! You can always record both steps and any other kind of exercise. It helps me for the cycling that you post the number of minutes - it makes it easier to "translate" it in to steps. thanks!
@BaileyCat88
You can record your Saturday steps on Sundays. I don't think Michele does the steps report until Sunday or Monday, so everyone has time to step right up to bedtime on Saturday

Lost track of time and "exercised" with my video games for an hour and a half. I usually do 45 minutes. My arms are gonna fall off. Just straight off.
I really need VR to start tracking leg motion so I can use my whole body to dance to the beat.
I might also need to sign up for dance lessons when Covid is over. I just, geez, I love dancing so much. And as the weight comes off I'm slowly finding my confidence.7 -
Went kayaking for the first time in 17 years. Had lots of fun and enjoyed the scenery.

Today was a busy day, I made salsa with freshly picked veggies and herbs from the garden. Ended up with 14 pints! I didn't get around to the pickles yet but hope to have time Monday. Tomorrow a friend and I have a day at the beach planned.
Rainbow for the day:
R - cherry tomatoes, red pepper
O - orange juice
Y - corn on the cob
G - poblano pepper, fresh thyme, sage & parsley
B - x
P - purple onion
B/W - Black beans, cauliflower, garlic

Correction: my soup is 255 cal/cup. As I ate it yesterday thinking how yummy and filling the barley was, I realized that was the one ingredient that was so obvious, I hadn't written it down, ha!
Someone on here just recently mentioned a craving and then waiting 10 minutes...worked for me last night as I knew the bag of potato chips was still around....see? things we read on here do float around in our brains and can surface just when we need them.
@lovethyneighbor your kayaking so inspiring - it is such a peaceful and enjoyable thing to do. @Gidgitgoescrazy has posted photos before - I still haven't attempted to get my monster kayak onto my car - with the truck I got rid of last year, it was so easy. There's a goal..by the end of September, I'll get out for a day on the river.4 -
Steps 8/8=3535
Not great , but we tubed for like 5 hrs, and it was worth it... Kayaking today, so probably won't meet my goal today either...2 -
