Today I did 70 minutes Dancing to the Oldies! Then I did 35 mins walking outside. It was 29(F) but I layered up good so the only thing cold was my face! In a challenge, I've committed to 50k steps this weekend (combined Sat and Sun), so I hope the weather holds off long enough for me to get in two very longs walks outside!5

1/28 & 1/29 food okay ....hopefully can get back to my walks tomorrow ...I am missing them3

1/28-1/29
Calories have been okay but I would have liked a deficit rather than breaking even the last two days. I’ve been feeling hungrier though. Carbs and protein have been fine as has my activity. I get the sense I won’t drop much this week so I’ll see come Tuesday morning. The trick will be to stay consistent over the weekend.1 -
1/30 food on point and I will be going out for a walk in a little bit with my daughter and my husky ..I am excited to get back out there
...it has been about 2 weeks when I got sick 1 -
Ugh, I've totally not been posting since I haven't managed to log in Jan for some reason. You all are doing great and I plan to join in Feb/on Mon.3

Today I walked 3 hours outside (8.64 miles). The temp was 33(F) but I layered up well. The only thing that was cold was my face! I also did 10 mins on the rebounder.
On another note, I joined a weekend challenge and committed to walk 50k steps over the 2 day weekend. I'm on schedule after one day with 28k steps so far.

Hey all - just a quick update.
Went to see physio having rested up my knee in favour of working through my radio clips - and that was probably a good thing. It was not as bad as it had been ... BUT... physio recommended going back to the start of C25K as 3min runs seemed to be a challenge after I aggravated my right knee from taking a couple of days before/after New year to lounge on my sofa watching films!
His plan is to start at the beginning as we know I can comfortably get to 3mins and then see whether I can build from there. I can also run and walk over at least half an hour so it is just as easy to drop back and let the knee build up and he has given me specific exercises. He also wants me to try out the Wii Fit Muscle and balance exercises as well.
It might be that 3mins is the maximum and I will have to run/walk for much longer as an exercise.
My plans to hit Australian hours hit a snag when the extractor fan in my loft extension bathroom shorted out when torrential rain came through the vent yesterday. So I had to wait for an electrician and couldn't get into reverse hours. So having brunch and doing that from today (fingers crossed).
I am going to circle back here in March as it is going to be too much to try and post here, as well as working 12 hour days on my own sports site to cover the next three weeks of tennis down under.
Update you on my progress then - until then best of luck to everyone for February!5 -
For 1/28-today
1) Log food and exercise daily - logged every day. That part was a success. Working out regularly is better but will need to increase time.
2) Cal deficit of 500 - Really glad I started tracking this.
3) Total carbs under 50 - all but one day the whole month!!!!!

Today I walked 90 mins on the treadmill; did 40 mins on the rebounder, and 60 mins dancing to the oldies! For the step challenge that I committed 50k steps to, I'm pleased to announce that I made 53k this weekend! Whew! I'm beat! Tomorrow is a rest day!3

1/30-1/31
Carbs, calories, protein and closing watch rings 👍🏻
Two good days for carbs and protein but I wanted to eat all the food being stuck inside and boredom was creeping in. I stayed within goal but it was a challenge. I’ve had some cravings that I fought this month so I want to continue to see what the trigger may be. I’ll weigh in Tuesday for my competition to see how I ended the month but overall feel pretty good about it.2 -
