So, I did not exactly stick to my plan today but I did hit my goals with my macros, steps, exercise minutes and water.
Tomorrow’s goals:
1. Eat pre-planned breakfast and lunch.
2. Walk 2o minutes before work and 20 minutes at lunch
3. Drink 90 oz
Those are great goals. 90 oz? That’s impressive2 -
Steps:
4/1: 1700 (idk if that’s accurate, but that’s what my Apple Watch said, and I didn’t move a lot...)
4/2: 60804 -
@TheresaM787 - I started with 64 and kept using it. I have a 320z water bottle and a reminder set on my phone to refill it 3 times a day. I also have an app that will calculate the hydration factor of other liquids like coffee, milk etc
@iradi8 - nice steps
@lelbarou - we have all sacrificed so much this past year. It is great that you recognize it as a strength of yours!
@Megan_smartiepants1970 - that’s how you come back ... nice loss!
@888Angie888 - nice day yesterday
@rwood0089 - fantastic loss🤩

I just read your post... I would have been nervous as well. Actually, I have nicely asked folks to not stand so close. Don't give a hoot if they are offended, as it keeps us both safer. Anyway, not sure what I would have done in your case. It is freaky that he just got off of quarantine. But, there is that....1 -

I will figure something out about a photo. I truly hope you get to see your parents soon. It is so precious they are still with you. I used to travel 75k+ miles a year, work/play, and nothing for over 2 years... I'm just ready to travel a bit. I have read that vaccines can be effective for 6 months.... I wish we/they (Epidemiologists) knew more for sure. So for now, my travel will be within that time frame, and with taking great care.
@lelbarou
Thank you, and right back at you. How lucky your students are!!😊😊2 -

I don’t know when I stopped writing my steps.
So , here are the last few days.
3/31 = 6,398
4/1 = 10,624
4/2 = 10,349
3 -
4/2
steps - 1899 not including my pedaler.
calories - over by 34 without counting my exercise.
exercise - 10 1/2 minutes on my pedaler, which is just bike pedals and a counter. it's for those that can't get out and exercise but can't afford a stationary bike. i got mine thru the v.a. I also did some weight work on my arms/shoulders with a 15 lb dumbbell.
i basically took the day off after all of my walking this week. i'm thinking of taking a hike in a park tomorrow. i have to get revenge on it. i tried it last May and had to be rescued by the ranger. now i'm 115 lbs lighter so i stand a better chance. if i don't return here then you'll all know i failed and the squirrels and lizards are eating my body. lol.4 -

how long was your weight work? Remember I am able to convert most exercises into steps...so far you have 2999 without your weight work1 -
Today was ok. I worked my plan but decided to have a cheat night for dinner. I was around 250 over calories but my weekly averages are still good. I also got in my exercise and 10K steps.
I have a busy day tomorrow so I am not planning on exercise. My goal for the week was 150 minutes and I have done 221, so I’m good. I probably won’t make 10K steps because I will be doing a lot of sitting but I will try. So my goals for tomorrow are:
1. Focus on protein ... have shake(s)/ bar(s) with me when out
2. Walk when I can
3. No junk food

Hi @rwood566 - Wow! You have a dark sense of humour and I dig it! LOL Great job on your increased activity. If we don't hear from you, we will send the ranger out! But I know you CAN do it! YAY! You ROCK! Awesome progress!!!2 -

Logging - yes
Exercise - yes
Steps - 7384
Well. Unfortunately, I ate something my stomach like and I threw up. Sorry to be graphic, but tis true! Anyway, I only got one walk in! I felt really dubious, had a nap and just felt pretty yuck. I have two stomach conditions, IBS and GERD, and either one can set me back.
Anyway, all is well, you know gotta turn that frown upside down!🌞😁
I am losing weight again, so that is good. All that binge weight plus more seems to be going.
I hope you all have an awesome day! Love ya bunches and bunches! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕4 -
Steps 7,018
Yesterday I struggled it was so busy here again with contractors and the kids were off. In addition it didn’t help that it was my last official day with my company of 20 years even though I have been on furlough for a year. I had take out for lunch and dinner. I did have a girls night at my neighbors house and our daughters so that was nice. Oh well today is a new day and there is only painters in the basement. A few more days and they should hopefully be done.4 -
@TheresaM787
Great job!
@red1185
Sometimes we need a day of rest. How do you like the Apple Watch?
@lcfa5317
Great steps!
@rwood566
You made me chuckle. Also, freak out a little as I am terrified of lizards and I won’t walk under a tree if a squirrel is in it.
@azkunk
I like that you work with a weekly average. Great goals for the day.

Just a reminder on the weigh in format. It makes it a lot easier for me to find.
