    Steps for Tuesday, 3/26 = 13,067

    @Kres567 enjoy that final day of vacation!

    @Wishusdonna, great stepping!

    @19shmoo69, you are quite welcome. Keep racking up those steps! Oh, I'm almost afraid to ask what making coffee "cowboy style" might be.

    @Jactop, what a step day you had, and with hills too. :smiley:

    @digger61, you are doing great! You've lost 7 lbs this month!

    My understanding of "cowboy style coffee" is the wretched stuff that some people make on outdoor trips. Throw grounds in a pot, boil, and make plans to pick the ground out of your teeth afterwards. I found a hilarious little article that describes this, and then offers an alternative.

    @UTMom81 Those pics of the AP are awesome. Makes me want to go see it real life! I live south of Raleigh, NC so it wouldn't be far at all to head west and hike it for a few days!

    Cowboy coffee for the most part is boiling water adding coffee grounds. Afterwards letting the grounds settle to the bottom or poring through some sort of filter to catch the grounds. Yummmm

    Can you guys let me know when it’s time to sign up for April? My state portfolios get submitted Friday, so I’m hoping things get back to normal after that.

    You can totally do just day hikes on it too. That's what we are mostly doing, with an occasional overnight or two snuck in there when we can. Glad you're enjoying our collective trek!

    Steps 23,984
    My Fitbit died 10 min into a 5km walk grrr. I could've hit 30k

    Calories: over my goal but still in the green. Lots of food challenges: pizza party/staff meeting at work, all the chocolate I could eat, helped serve a catered dinner in the evening with lots of yummy left overs, hordes of desserts and a free bar. Fortunately I was able to eat at home before both events which helped keep the damage to a minimum (1 chocolate, a Nanaimo bar and a glass of wine). I was so happy I stayed in the green

    Water: good

    Exercise: lots of walking. Several short walks to do errands and 1 long one. It felt like spring so couldn't resist being outside in the sunshine

    Thursday's plan: stick to my food plan, drink lots of water to flush out all the salt I ate yesterday and go for a walk with my sister at the indoor track

    Thursday check in:
    Last few days have been weird. On and off being motivated to workout. Calories are ok. Water could so better. It's like I forget to drink and watch sometimes when I'm working and then over do it when I do get to eat :/
    Today is 30 min yoga and 10 min abs.

    Steps :
    3/25: 5,158
    3/26: 12,012
    3/27: 5,842- didn't wear my Fitbit half the morning while I was at work bc it was charging.

    I'm considering buying a new Fitbit. I have the flex 2 currently.
