    brandiwells1, congratulations on your new bundle of joy! I'm so impressed that you're still tracking steps and getting that much walking in having just given birth.

    sbarella, I hope the comic convention was awesome!

    bennettinfinity, thanks for finding me inspirational. I find that inspiring. :)

    rmcardle, rest days are totally allowed--just don't make them the prevailing habit. ;) Onward and upward!

    Rest days becoming a habit was one of my big problems for years. I would do fine for several weeks, then take a rest day. That day would turn into week and worse from there. Now I do seem to be able to have a rest day with out is sabotaging my entire exercise plan.

    lamlam, awesome job with all the raking! I bet you can see all your grass now. :)

    Awesome step total for the 6th, bennettinfinity! Yay for spring!

    Great steps, brandiwells1, but as you say, don't overdo it.

    Dancing, getting out of our routine can definitely screw up those of us who like habits and patterns. Of course, life isn't going to let us always do the same thing over and over again, so it's important to work out how to roll with the punches and take care of the exercising and the resting--and the rest of life! I'm glad you've worked out how to incorporate that into your healthy lifestyle. I feel like I'm doing better with it this time around, too. (My eating worked the same way in the past; I'd be so, so, so good for months, but once I screwed up or was invited out to a dinner that threw my calorie goals all out of whack, I was way more likely to say screw it to the rest of the day/week/month.) This time, I feel as though I have a better handle on it and can incorporate treats and real life into my usually more regimented routine. Only time will tell, of course, but I'm feeling positive about it!

    mlh612 - I think it was barbiecat who posted the Baryshnikov quote about only competing against yourself... so no worries - you're still here and doing great! :flowerforyou:

    And I'll second (third?) dancing and phoenix's take on breaks. I think they benefit the body *and* the mind by breaking up the constant grind of the routine - but it's important that you *have* a routine. If you have a bad day (or a bad couple of days), you know, sometimes the dragon wins... You just need pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and you get back to the routine as quickly as you can. :smile:

    I am checking in but not with steps. The pedometer I have is not correct, so I have ordered a new one. I am very hopeful it will be here by Friday, then I can start counting steps with all of you.

    Have a great Tuesday!!
