    Proof I need this group for accountability. I took a month off and now I’m up 3.4 pounds. Honestly haven’t gotten back into the swing of things this week. Been working 12-14 hour days and it leaves me with little energy to workout or make better food choices. Can’t let this be my excuse. Need to reassess and start with a baby step or two. What are your go to actions that get you back on track? This upcoming week I will focus on getting back to a gallon of water a day.

    For me to get on track, I can’t overwhelm myself. I set a couple of small goals and build on it each week. Reporting here daily also helps me. Right now my main goals are exercise and logging my food. Every year, I come home from holidays and don’t start logging my food. I have been terrible with exercise the last 6 months. Make sure your goals are smart goals.

    Steps: 3,606
    Log food: ✔️
    Exercise: 4/4

    Week in review: lost weight, met my exercise goal and logged my food everyday. Not a bad week. This week, I need to be more aware of reaching my step goal.

    Haven't smoked weed in a week. Longest I've gone in 12 years. Trying CBD tonight to help with sleep. Last night I slept on and off for 6 hours which is the most I've gotten all week. I'm still so tired and fatigue. Went for a run this morning and I'm exhausted. Blah. My next 5km race is Saturday. Just want this to be over with.

    Have you ever tried melatonin for sleep. I swear by it. Great job sticking with giving up weed.

    You mentioned last week you are in maintenance. I need a maintenance range weight so I can get you moved to the proper part of the spreadsheet. Most people do 5 to 10 pounds around their centre weight.

    Steps: 4,585
    Log food: ✔️
    Exercise: 0/4

    Just finishing my coffee and then off to the pool. I didn’t exercise yesterday but was aware of moving so I got at least 4200 steps to hit 2.9km for the day for my Apple badge for July. I have 4 days done and need 10 more.

    To my Canadian teammates, enjoy the civic holiday.

    May I be excused for the month of August?
    Things haven't been going so well and I feel a break would be best. I have informed Megan that I am taking a break from steps as well.

    What is Beat Saber? It sounds interesting! 😊

    Sorry for the late response! It is a game in VR (virtual reality) where you basically dance to music and smash boxes to the beats. It's extremely fun! You feel awesome and you're exercising at the same time. Hardly feels like a work out. I actually did some last night and it has definitely made me want to do it on a consistent basis again.
