    You've got to make up stories!

    I've claimed to have been hit by a bus, and been injured in a skydiving accident. (Yes, skydiving, @robertw486 ! LOL)

    I also once claimed that my quadriplegic family member was in a giant power wheelchair due to "an Irish dancing incident back in the '80's".

    Have some fun with it!

    Cardio: 30 minutes (5.11 miles) on recumbent bike. Got in about 2700 steps. Not even going to attempt to meet my 5500 goal today (for the first time in forever). Have to be able to function for the next few days and can't afford to have a fibro flare or anything else go wrong till at least Saturday.

    Foodwise I'm doing great, just over 1200 calories for the day. Proud of myself for not letting today's stress make me turn to food for comfort.

    I'm tired and going to bed.

    Lol, well most of my family saw me take the spill so the only people I could lie to are people at the gym who haven't seen me yet.
    I could say it was from an MMA match.

    I won't be participating, except maybe once a week, on my newsfeed any longer but will still be logging food and exercise every day and working on my goals this year. I will also still be commenting and checking in here consistently. This group is more valuable to me right now with some of the time constraints I'm facing early this year.

    Cardio: 40 min walk/run, mostly walk but I'll be working back up to mostly run over the next month or two. It felt good to run again and I'm not much of a runner.......LOL

    Strength: None today, back to the gym in the morning.

    Assessment: So far so good this week calorie wise. My fitbit told me to eat more carbs and less fat so I'm going to try that for awhile.

    Happy Hump Day!!!

    @robertw486 I'm glad to help you burn a calorie or two!

    Cardio: Walked all 5500 steps today, a mile of them in the c-c-cold outside. The brisk fresh air felt good!
    Strength: 15-minute Beginner Weight Training with 3 lb dumbbells
    Food: I ate so many delicious foods today. I don't understand how I came in at just over 1300 calories. No complaints here! Packed up enough good food for lunch and dinner tomorrow, so I don't have to buy garbage at the hospital cafeteria. It's going to be a long day there.

    Depending on how I feel in the early morning, I will or won't go to the gym for some bike time.

    Happy Wednesday, all!!

    Monday was a rest day. Tuesday, I was lazy, so:

    Cardio: 5 mile run, mostly easy pace with 1 mile at tempo. Skipped the strength training to get my missed run in, instead. Have two races in a week and a half, so the running is more important.


    Food: on target all week.

    Wednesday

    Strength: None... did something to my arm and thought it better to rest. My story will be that I was in an MMA match with @ninerbuff , and was then attacked by a cougar on the way to the car.

    Cardio: 37 minutes, 4 calculated miles, 563 calculated calories on the elliptical

    Assessment: Must have pulled something in my arm eating fairly well!
