Welcome to the 21st! And Saturday. I actually googled Saturday and it was interesting. The best day to hunt vampires apparently.
But most of all it is supposed to be a rest day from the work week so there is not major topic today. Please enjoy the day.

9 days no grazing. 112 over calories as was hungry and tired but still under maintaince calories so im all good with that. As of this morning i hve started weighing the 1 last thing i dnt weigh which is the milk in my tea. I realised today that i hve been def under estimating as o drink alot of tea. So ill make sure i measure it from here on out. Im guessing this is why my weight hasnt moved. Night team. Xo8 -

Exercise – yes, only short bike ride but about an hour of good cardio exercise in short bursts.
Tracked – yes
Calories – yes
Good to be back home – I enjoyed the holiday but I didn’t sleep well and was exhausted by the time I got home yesterday evening.
My weight was up quite a bit this morning but I hope it’s mainly water weight. I did have dessert every day, plus other treats.

What a busy day I am just got my mountain bike back from the shop first ride in 4 yes since my broken radial head what a nice ride a little nervous at first but acclimated nicely. I did stay off the trail and road through our village streets with my helmet of course hubby would not let me leave without it even though it was almost 95!
I worked on medicine ball work, resistance bands and other stuff got my time in for the game of thrones challenge.

Felt good to be back on track. It’s so weird how not having my gym class schedule and Kiddo at camp makes me lose track of days and have no idea when I am. (I don’t think that’s actually a phrase, but it is now.) Only ran 2.5 miles (walked 1.5) but after a week of nothing I’m considering any running a step in the right direction. Plus it was 91% humidity and high sun, so not passing out was a win too. I need to figure out stuff to do inside the next few days with Henri headed our way.
Today’s random ramblings:I’ve decided to buy some size 10 jeans. I am a size 10, but given how fast I moved from 16 to 14 to 12 and how nauseated I am about the money spent on clothes spanning those sizes that now don’t fit - I decided I could get away with my 12s for two sizes and not buy 10s, just wait until I reached an 8. (I’ve bought a few 8s as I saw them on sale, so I have a couple pairs to use as a gauge for if they fit yet.) Six months later… still a 10. 😑 The 8s button, but that’s the nicest thing I can say about how they fit (aka: don’t fit). So… I’ve decided the best way to get the scale moving again is to just spend money uselessly and buy some 10s. That’s how the universe usually likes to play me, so I shall play her game this time. And, should it take another 6 months to get to an 8, I will have pants that actually fit for that 6 months. Lol. Im clearly grasping at straws here 😂🤦🏻♀️6 -
@Mrs_Hoffer - Congrats on the new category! 🤗🥳
@donna25trinity - is it weird that my first thought when I read your post was “oh she’s a tea drinker that puts milk in her tea, I knew I liked her.” 😂🤣
