    Good Wednesday everyone! Where I live today (with the windchill) it’s -40 degrees. Here’s my warm food I enjoy. A serving of oatmeal with sweetener of your choice. After the oatmeal is cooked add frozen blueberries or tart cherries or fruit of you liking and 1 or 2 tablespoons of heavy whipping cream. It’s like a dessert. May everyone find something today that brings a smile to your face or heart.

    There is over 100 degree difference between wher you and I are. It was 73 today in Scottsdale Arizona. 😎😎
    I am sure I will get my paycheck for bragging about this next summer when it hits 120 degrees here😎

    Is this really so? I suspect we're looking here at -40 Celsius and +73 Fahrenheit (which would only be 23 Celsius).

    Or alternatively this works too. I have activity set at sedentary then have my Garmin set to update my MFP based on daily activity. This way it adds continually during the day depending on what AI do. That way if I do have a very inactive or very active day it corresponds.

    Thank you for this tip. I’m going to do this tomorrow. 😀

    So -40 Celsius is also -40 Fahrenheit, which is the one place where both degrees are the same! So in Fahrenheit that is over a 100 degree difference between -40 degrees to 73 degrees. Crazy!😊😎😎

    Does anyone have fitness pal premium? If so, is it worth it?

    Just finished my 40min walking treadmill workout. Not as good as running, but I'll have to work back into it again. The day after I declared I was going to train for a half in May - I got sick - LOL !!! The one good thing that came from my time off is that I started drinking over 8 cups of water a day. I add MiO drops (cherry blackberry my favorite so far.)

    You’re well on your way to that half!!!👟👟 May I ask where your race will be? The half marathon is my favorite race distance. Des Moines, IA, is my favorite one. Keep going. You’re doing awesome!!

    I use that stuff, too. I drink more water if it has a little flavor.

    Hi @skf1201 ... I was considering the Superhero Half Marathon in Morristown, NJ. Never did a half before. I usually stop running in the winter because it's so cold outside. I figured I could build my miles up on the treadmill this year in the winter. We'll see ! So, do you run year round? Do you have any races coming up?
