    9/2:

    Steps: 4126
    Floors: 8
    Calories Burned: 162
    Daily Intensity Minutes: 9
    Total Intensity Minutes: 190/150

    Busy, but great day. Not as much movement as I would have liked. Just how it goes for yesterday, and today (which I will report tomorrow.)

    @lindamtuck2018. You asked me a couple of days ago about intensity minutes. Basically, 150 minutes a week of moderate, or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise (https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/obesity-prevention-source/moderate-and-vigorous-physical-activity/) is what is recommend, by various sources, as the minimum. There are many sources other than the one mentioned above. Garmin will actually separate the moderate from the vigorous😉. I just report the total.

    Please be well
    😊

    Thought I would share...👀

    ETA: With just over 55% of the entire State vaccinated, and the alert level being high, it is what it is.
    Hubs and I have been fully vaccinated since February and March, respectively. And, yes, we are entering the drawing...

    Happy Saturday Team!

    Super excited today! I completed my 8 week C25K program this morning! It took me longer than 8 weeks as I had to repeat a few weeks but it’s done now. This will have been my 4th time completing this running program. I find it hard every time but I also get better and faster each time i do it. I won’t be restarting it for awhile as I will be having surgery on a few weeks. I’ll start again when I’m given the green light to start working out again.

    Now to enjoy a relaxing afternoon. Pool time!

    💪🏻♥️👍🏻

    @Poobah1972 I am sorry to hear you are struggling but glad to see you still posting!

    A big party with 50 ppl would make me anxious too! Hope it goes well and you start feeling yourself again soon.

    Weigh In Day: Friday
    PW: 180.9
    CW: 183.9

    Hard week adjusting to the earlier wake-up time with my daughter back in school...got under 5 hours of sleep each night and when I wake up tired like that I feel super hungry and not in the frame of mind to make the best choices. So that is reflected in the big gain this week. Taking this weekend to refocus on my goals and catch up on some much needed sleep. Looking forward to a BIG loss on next week's weigh-in!

    Good morning everyone. Granted, it's afternoon or evening where most of you are at. I still have 30 minutes of morning left.

    Check in for 9/3. Yes I'm late.
    Steps - 5383. Lazy day.
    Calories - 1623. Didn't eat dessert since I was close after dinner.
    Exercise - a bit of shopping, a short stroll in the evening to get steps.

    Afternoon...

    My fiance I both hiked the same trail I hope hiked last week. Took 12 minutes off my time from last week yet I darn near burned the same amount. 👍

    Feel much better finishing today then I did last week... Soon I might be willing to make it a 2 way trip? But is a 3000 calorie burn wise? 😆

    Anywhoo I need to get a nap on before we head to the pig roast. 🤟Guys. 🤗❤️

    Met Dad for an early walk as he got back from his work travel the night before. Then Friday is always grocery shopping day so that was next on the agenda. The weather is really starting to get on my nerves, it won't stop raining here. Looking forward to a three day weekend, want to go to the zoo if doesn't rain the whole time.
