4/9/19 Mini Challenge
Logged: Yes
Under: Yes
Exercise: Lots of walking at the airport
I made it to Tucson late last night... only ended up sleeping a few hours. I feel totally relaxed! I went for a wonderful walk to a park with my niece (a German shepherd mix) and enjoyed the sun for the first time in a while! I am taking way too many pictures and I just got here! My brother and I are going for a hike sometime after he finishes an exam for school, and maybe to the cactus gardens... this is looking to be a great week! I will most likely be posting my mini challenges a day late while I am out here, the time change already has me messed up!6 -

Weigh in Day
Before I left for vacation (mid-March):169lbs
This week: 166.8 lbs
It really stunk to go away at my heaviest that I’ve ever been, but I’m glad to see that upon returning I am near my starting weight on here at 166.8. This is a jumping point for me. Exctied to be back in this community!

I am amazed you are getting so many steps. I know a bad back can be crippling so getting over 7,000 steps is great.1 -

@erikNj, enjoy your wife's birthday weekend in Brooklyn. Having never been to the Big Apple myself, what are the must see's and do's in Brooklyn?
Brooklyn is mostly known for their foodie scene, parks and Coney Island. I guess if you really wanted the tourist stuff and attractions you would cross the bridge into Manhatten, that would be what people call the Big Apple. My wife and I personally like Brooklyn better because it is more laid back and lacks the tourist crowds.3 -

@swauters
If it was up to me I’d be in bed all day. Little kids and dogs constantly seem to need something so there is always a ton of up and down and moving around. It’s not a fun 7000 steps, that’s for sure.
There actually is a NSV with all this back pain. My back brace no longer fits me, it’s way too big!. It’s a nice little “yay!” Wrapped in a big nasty “oh no!” 3 -
