    Saturday check-in 11/19

    Happy Sunday team.

    Yesterday was a busy day for us. Luka and I had our Karate class in the morning followed by a quick lunch at one of the bakery’s here then the whole family had haircuts. After that Sam had a birthday party to go to and mike and I did some shopping while he was there. We finished our day quite late so this morning I was feeling too tired to go to the gym. Instead I will be practicing my karate this afternoon. Our presentation is December 10 and I know it will be fast approaching so I need all the practice I can get.

    I’ll try to make the gym on Tuesday and maybe thrown in an extra session one evening this week. Wishing you all a wonderful Sunday.

    Steps :

    Sun - 12,574
    Mon - 9,414
    Tues - 5,314
    Weds - 8,137
    Thur - 11,556
    Fri - 15,138
    Sat - 11,080

    Goals :

    Karaté - 3/3
    Gym - 1/3
    Log food - 4/7
    Stay under - 3/7
    Drink 2L - 3/7
    Say something Nice/positive to myself - 1/7
    Happiness is a choice, and today I choose to be happy.

    Not a great week goal wise. My sleep is good so that is a positive. I don’t see any exercise in the next few days.

    After 3 vaccinations and 2 boosters, COVID finally caught up with me this week (looks like I picked it up in Columbus, OH last week after visiting the kids), and then Susan, 2 days later, and then our youngest son (16) the day after that. After living/sleeping in the (finished) basement for 2 days, I can't say I wasn't glad to rejoin the family again in the rest of the house but wish it was under different circumstances. I started getting my strength back 2 days ago but still have the congestion, etc. but loss of appetite is probably the reason for the weight loss as I certainly haven't been doing any exercise this week.

    Feel a bit better today. Just can’t do much as moving around makes me cough a lot and feel short of breath. Thanks all on the congrats.

    Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming up. What are some of the strategies you have in place to prevent holiday weight gain?

    Instead of piling my plate up .... Take small amounts of everything and drink lots of water (to keep you full)
