10/2 prelogged and did some weights but only got 1943 steps
10/3 no permitting or strength (anniversary party) but had 6730 steps
Will make up the difference today.1 -
Fell a little short of the mark yesterday, but it's still an increase over goal from last month . Progress...not perfection. Also, i added in more motion while walking which I feel in various muscles today.That's Good!
I will get there.
I notice I'm paying more attention to logging, and choices, and how exercise helps with total numbers....in other words, I feel I'm getting a little more invested overall.
Progressing nicely.3 -
10/2-10/3
Calorie goal- more like a maintenance weekend plus some poor decisions. At least I had plenty of movement both days.
Snacking - Friday I did have snacks after dinner and Saturday I did not. I’ll be working on doing better as the week goes on- the weekends have not been planned well.2 -
10/1-10/4 goals met... I just did a 15 minute walk today because I was antsy lol... will be back out there tomorrow walking my 90 minute walk or more ..we shall see

Pretty good day today helped by beautiful sunny fall weather!
1. Food on goal today and, most importantly, nuts avoided.
2. Starting training for my half marathon. 3 miles ran this morning (slow, but got it done!) and another 4.5 miles walked running errands, etc.3 -
10/4
Calorie goal and snacking: 👿 I didn’t log anything because it was a football day of grazing on snacks for most of the afternoon followed by a carby dinner that made me feel sick. I now need a detox couple of weeks to get back on track. If there was a silver lining, I got lots of movement in and had a fun day so I’ll give myself a break and move on.4 -
10/5 Goals met and I am about to go walking ...I am hoping to walk 5 miles today ... I keep coming up short~ 3

10/2 - 10/4:
Calories good for the weekend, protein good on Friday and Sunday, a little low on Saturday, nets carbs were good for the weekend.
Exercise - rode 21 miles on Friday, got the Halloween decorations down from the attic and put up the most of the outside stuff on Saturday, finished the lights and hanging spiders, etc on Sunday.
A good weekend - no couch potato this weekend!2 -
10/4 Goals not met but still ate well and went bowling last night. Need to make up a 3000 step deficit today.
It's cold in my house so I'm up out of my chair moving more to t=stay warm

Good day today!
1. Food on point. Although boring, it’s best if I just stick with the same menu.
2. 4 mile training run today plus an additional 7 miles walking as had work ( I work as a library aide and, unfortunately, those books don’t shelve themselves!).3 -
The past couple days I'm hitting 85% of a mile in steps. On both days I'm just done for the day or too tired to go for the complete mile. So, that's still about 1500 more steps per day than last month. Hopefully the stamina factor will kick in soon and I'll hit one mile regularly.
Still proud of my activity progress.
Food is still all over the place. More real food, less processed though; and still too high on carbs, but not SAD level.
Getting there slowly but surely.
Have a great night, pals!4 -
10/5/20
Prelogged
5000 steps
Off day no strength
Still need to make up 3000 step deficit.
Made some keto biscuits yesterday and some PB Protein balls this morning. Saw a recipe for low carb apple crisp I'd like to try (diced zucchini). Might have to still add some apple in there.3 -
10/5
Calorie goal ✅ had a nice deficit based on the amount of activity I had for the day.
Snacking- I did add some additional protein a few hours after dinner because I was a bit low for the day and felt like I’d cave to something off plan if I didn’t. Not terrible but could I have just refrained? Yes, more than likely.3 -
10/5:
Food was good - calories were low since the salami I ate last night was apparently a little old and cleaned out most of dinner... oh well.
Did get a good 19 mile ride in the morning and finished the day with 7700 steps.3 -
10/6 Goals met and I walked 5 miles with Leslie Sansone today .... I have blisters on the tops of my toes ...I ordered a pair of sketcher hiking boots when I was in a walking boot so they are to big on my feet now ....gonna try to pairs of socks and see if that helps 4

1.Food just ok today. Took my eldest daughter to a post-op visit at Mayo and we had lunch (I usually fast until mid afternoon) so my calories are definitely over today. I did make good food choices so that’s a plus.
2. 3 mile training run and managed an additional 4 miles walking.

10/6
Calorie goal - a bit over what I would like but still in a deficit. Wasn’t feeling super hungry so lunch was light with a normal sized dinner for me.
Snacking- dumb excuse for why I did which added a few calories from nuts but I just had a handful to distract my dog from bad behavior. Again, could have gone without but whatcha gonna do??4 -
10/7:
Calories were a little on the high side (but still below maint), must have been making up for Monday. Protein 134g, Carbs 90g net.
Exercise - did a short ride of 14 miles in the morning and then body weight exercises later in the day. Finished with 7500 steps for the day.3 -
Hey y'all. I'm around. We had a weekend trip camping, and I'm just having a hard time getting back into the swing of things. I'm doing fine on the eating and fitness end, it's just everything else is being ridiculous. Kids don't want to go back to school work. They keep trashing my house. And etc...
