Hi @nansbones I post it on Saturday's late afternoon/early evening because some time zones hit Sunday before we do...it starts on Sunday and runs through Saturday each week. You're REALLY being proactive!!

FYI for those of you who enjoyed our Partner Up Walking Challenge a few weeks ago, Week 3 (Sep 15-21) will be a repeat of that walking challenge. Start now to find your partners in each of the teams and on Saturday the 14th, when I make the announcement, you can get that finalized before the challenge begins on the 15th. I'm giving you a week's notice so we can find our partners and be ready to go.
I will be in the Rainbow challenge chat room all week if you want to pop in and send your partner names, team name, etc and get registered. Pass the word...bring a friend or two!

I’m confused at the absolute sameness of Thursday, Friday and Saturday but I did spend each of them in the garden on my knees weeding2 -

This week, I will do more organising of time management.
I printed the bullet plan pages and hope to keep going with filling it in regularly.
2. This week, I will strive to increase my average step count for the week.
I had a good day on Thursday, Friday was ok, but today was a do nothing day.
3. This week, I hope to enjoy quiet meditation and reading.
I'm still doing both of these to help me sleep.

I went for a walk today and lifted weights at the gym. Then did some yard work. I am at 14,000+ steps. Better rest up next week for the partner walk the following week!
I was on my phone a little today, but when I sat down to relax for a few I ended up taking a 45 minute nap 😴
I am almost done with my book! I should be able to finish it this evening!2 -
Saturday
1. I walked a mile today and did laundry and some cleaning and cooking so got quite a few steps in!
2. No snacking today but ate out for seafood and divided my meal into two for lunch and dinner and stayed under on my calories. Got my water in as well.
3. Read a little and will read before bed.
Thanks to all who participated this week. I hope it was helpful to you. See you tomorrow in the new challenge!

Saturday
Run more- did a short, slightly faster run tonight, plus some walking on the treadmill
Eat less- kinda. I generally don't eat back exercise calories, but will allow myself to deep into them, if I feel like a need a little extra, or just feel like indulging a bit. I'm using my exercise calories for a cold beer here in a little while, when my boys go to bed.
More quiet time: Didn't get to yoga today, or any quiet, alone time. On my husbands days off, I don't really have alone time, even when the kids are napping. I guess I'll have to be more deliberate on weekends, and create that time.1 -
1. This week, I will do more sleeping. Better quality sleep.
2. This week, I will strive to have less caffeine. Planning a 25% reduction.
3. This week, I hope to enjoy quiet walks in nature.
Saturday
I slept pretty good last night. My Garmin said my sleep score was 80, which for me is about as high a score as I ever get. No particular reason for sleeping well, other than that I was totally exhausted from over a week of very poor sleep (Garmin sleep scores in the 40's).
I finally managed to cut the caffeine by another 25%. 3 bottles of diet coke yesterday.
I got some great walks; saw some wildlife. Sunshine was great.
