    Steps: 11,673
    Exercise: water aerobics and laps

    Going to try for a decent swim today and maybe a walk. It is going to be a very nice day. Next week I have a pretty crazy week. I have 2 doctors appointments and my mammogram. Also, I will be spending the day tomorrow in the lineup at the passport office. I have 4 weeks to my Atlantic City trip and still have no passport. So my exercise maybe light this week. Have a wonderful Sunday.

    This week may have been rough, but we had plenty of people in the green last week!

    WaistAways - 36%
    Mission Slimpossibles - 34.8%
    WeightNoMore & Downsizers - 33.3%
    Shape Shifters - 16.7%

    All you have to do to be in the green is lose weight. It doesn't matter how much, it doesn't matter the percentage, all that matters is you end lower than you were the week before. And that's it! For this next week, I encourage you to take things one step at a time, one choice at a time. It's never too late to make a choice that benefits you. Move a little more, eat a little better, listen to your body.

    And if you're struggling, you have an entire team here to help you. You're not alone, even if it feels like it sometimes.

    Last week of the road trip, I should be home tomorrow hopefully. This past week I drove home from Florida through the Great Smokey Mountains to Ohio to Wisconsin now back home north to winter, lol. Lots of walking and parks and historical sites on the way. Saw my specialist, and a few family members and friends along the way too.

    I didn’t log my food a couple days because my phone didn’t have great connectivity and my focus was on driving and making accommodation arrangements and whatnot. The gain though isn’t much from over eating; I can see the water swelling in my legs despite all the extra walking and MLD I tried to do. Hopefully it will mobilize in a couple days of rest and routine at home.

    The goal of a park a day helped a lot. I’ll keep that on future trips. I didn’t use the plan of grocery store stops much until the last couple days. Keeping shorter drive times with more active breaks helped overall. I noticed, though, when I visit people that they tend to be *very* sedentary so I need to do my activity before and/or after. “Visits” were mostly eating and talking. No one wanted to walk, even with the dog as an excuse.

    Good Sunday evening. I hope you enjoyed it.
    Check in for 4/24:
    Steps - 13797 plus 10 minutes bike moderate level.
    Calories - 1950 or close.
    Exercise - 6 mile walk late morning in 1 hr 42 minutes. Did the same route as yesterday but backwards. Cut 6 minutes off my time. Gym after dinner. 9 machines and 10 minutes bike.

    @lindamtuck2018 I feel a bit apprehensive about going into maintenance. I know it means I have completed the first part of my journey but it is a new unknown.

    I took my youngest son to a soccer tournament in Indianapolis this weekend and ate out with the other soccer moms & dads - not too healthy (BBQ & Mexican). Fun time but I'm glad to be back home.

    I slept in as I had very little sleep as we had an issue in the family last night. I am going to head to the passport office in a few minutes and will read all the posts when I return.
