hopefully I end the day by providing the UAC a good laugh.
I was quickly scanning down the posts in preparation of adding mine, and I saw @GrandmaJackie 's. My first thought was that someone is having the same sort of August as me. Then I realized that 8/10 was the date and not her pass count.........
@twistedsassette I hope your results come back quickly and are negative. Wishing you good health!
Starting the 11th with Advil for breakfast. Numb toes mean compressed back nerves and also having caffiene withdrawl. I'm off to a great day!10 -

Tracking - yes
Cal - yes. Actually didn't even hit 1200 so maybe a no
Execise- no. Schedule got derailed in morn for work so didn't walk. Was going to in afternoon but it poured rain. I could've done HIIT workout which I need to start doing but the truth is, I think I'm scared to. Embarrassed because I feel like whole house shakes when I jump, scared my knee will really hurt, and some undefined emotion about it just being difficult and not wanting to.7 -

@biketheworld
Thanks for this topic! It was just in time for me😅. I was thinking, this is so hard, can I stick with it all month? And thank you @Mrs_Hoffer for your encouragement to us new folks😀.
Yes x 3
Walking the dog8 -
Yes, yes and yes
Walking. Started a yoga workout and quit 4 minutes into after feeling really exhausted. I am not sure what that was about. If I need to focus on one thing, it might be figuring out how to get my energy levels up. I did take a look on Amazon to look at marbles...5 -

Thanks so much @biketheworld for the suggestion and for your encouragement 🥰 I’d love some episode recommendations — they have SO many episodes!1 -

I have to admit that todays example really hit home. I have had a hard time getting back into the groove of tracking after being not being part of the group for a few months. I can usually do one or two of the 3 but rarely all 3. Just have to keep trying.5 -

@biketheworld
You are so kind! I have spent a fair amount of the past 5-3/4 years really working to figure this out.
Each of us DOES have our own path, but I do believe that the path can be made easier in many ways!
Your appreciation inspires me to keep pecking away on my phone… my motto is “if it helps just one person….”
Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️3 -

Exercise – yes, bike ride 60+ minutes, plus light cardio (ribs still sore)
Tracking – yes
Calories – yes
@biketheworld great topic today, thanks. I think it applies to all sorts of different situations where we feel faced with an impossible task. Certainly, weight loss and/or developing health lifestyle can appear daunting at first.
@seilidhe
I have three bikes – the oldest is a bog standard, general purpose, bike (21 gears which helps with hills) which I've had for about 15 years. The next was a folding bike which I used to put in the boot of the car, drive part way to work, park, unpack the bike and ride the last 2 miles. (My commute was 9 miles with a nasty hill and several miles of busy main road, this plan worked brilliantly until my friend moved house so I didn’t have anywhere convenient to leave the car). My lovely new bike is electric and the most fun! It also folds so I can get it in the car if I want to take it anywhere.
