    Happy Weekend!

    SW: 55,3
    GW: 54,3
    Day/Weight/Comment
    03/03: 55,30 - wow, so this jump is crazy. The past days were full of eating mostly on track and walking more than usual ( I normally don't get over 5k steps, I don't know how you all do so many!), so that definitely played a huge role. I also gave me quite the confidence boost, that maybe getting to my UGW might actually be possible. Lets see what the next 10 days bring.
    03/04: 55,15 - seeing the 5 as a second digit is still really mind-blowing for me! There is a drop again, which I am quite proud of! Yesterday I however did something stupid: Apart from a small breakfast porridge I didn't eat anything all day. Partly because I was not hungry, partly because I was so busy. And then in the evening I totally went over board, not tracking, eating way past the point of satisfaction. Due to the lack of calories during the day that apparently didn't change my overall weight. But I think it is such an unhealthy way of depriving myself of nutrients for so long, so I do not want to go down that road further. For today I have pre-logged lots of healthy, filling stuff for my body.
    03/05 55,25 - a little rise, but still about the same. Yesterday evening I definitely went overboard calorie wise. But it was still okay, because due to an super active day I just needed more food. I also showed up for my goal from the day before and ate lots of healthy stuff - even my evening 'binge' was quite healthy. Today I am to meet a friend for a walk and get a local popular pastry to-go. That will definitely have some influence on the scale, but I am trying to plan around it. My biggest worry right now: Staying at my current weight for a couple of days, getting demotivated ('You will never reach your end goal, its just not possible), and then binging for two days straight. So therefore my new mantra: Maintaining my current weight is already an amazing step in the right direction!
    03/06 55,10 - okay, so this is amazing. And that even though I yesterday definitely went over my calories. But funnily not so much with the pastry, but with my breakfast. I was in such a 'giving up' mood yesterday. But today I feel way clearer again. In an hour I will meet with a friend for a run together. Haven't been running in a couple of weeks so lets see how that goes :D

    March challenge – average steps for the last 10 days = 21,566, this has been slewed by a couple of particularly high days ( I normally aim for 19K steps ), during the challenge I aim to do an additional 5% which is a daily total of 23,723 – I'll do my best !!

    03/01 21,157
    03/02 26,594 - made a conservative effort to do more steps after a walking reckie to check how long it takes to walk to the vaccination centre.
    03/03 24,433 – walked to & from vaccination centre, was on feet through whole of session & kept walking during “slack” period.
    03/04 24,358
    03/05 23,539

    Rolling average for March 24,016


    KEEP SAFE EVERYONE :). Keep calm – we're all in this together!

    @beagletracks Would it be possible to take the writing job and do it while pursuing your other goal?

    @quiltingjaine - That's the conflict. For the teaching licensure certificate, I'd need to take a three-week class this summer that meets 9-12 M-F, then in fall I'd have a class with a 45-hour practicum component, and next spring I'd be student teaching full-time. I'm feeling more clear that I want to commit to teaching. I think I should focus on the licensure goal and continue applying for teaching in higher ed rather than settling for what could be an excellent writing job but would not feel as meaningful to me as teaching. I was supposed to hear back yesterday about a second interview for one of the jobs and wasn't contacted, so perhaps there is no conflict! :D

    Thank you for your advice!
