May 17
Exercised: Yes (7.5km in 63 mins - hills)
Tracked: Yes
Budget: Yes
Long walk finished on dusk. Poor sleep last night (restless leg syndrome), so slept another 4 hours in the middle of the day. Medication really knocking me about.
Yesterday did the same walk, but was really hard to get motivated to move and was a good 3 minutes slower. Just was completely unable to push myself.
Met with friends yesterday for dinner the first time in over 2 months. Restrictions are slowly easing here. Was nice to meet others. Was home after midnight and was too out of it to post.Had a friend send me a TED talk which was rather interesting. Maybe stress is not so bad for you if your attitude to stress is positive.

I usually perform well under stress. So maybe if I view stress as helpful it may allow me to continue to do what I do without being concerned of it's long term sustainability.7 -

Taking a pass day. This conversion has me grazing - a little stressed due to lack of information and being requested to make decisions well above my pay grade. Decided I am not making those decisions and clearly stated it in text. Interestingly enough the person will not call me so I can find out why all of a sudden they want to turn off part of the main item/program being converted. And, it seems they want a scapegoat. Well, I am no ones goat.....LOL!
Yes, attitude about stress does make the difference Craig. I perform well under stress and do not mind pressure - I have a tendency to be laser focused and get a lot done.
And, I do agree my statement does not agree with my first paragraph. I believe it's the type of stress. Right now I think this is stupid stress because this project has been a disaster waiting to happen since day one. It isn't good stress - knowing things need to get done to be successful. It is stupid because no matter how much work is done this is not going to be a successful go live (tomorrow). So I guess the better term for me is frustrated.....I am grazing because I am frustrated with the whole thing. I would be more than happy to work 24-7 if I knew there would be a positive result.
So, I am keeping on keeping on. I have been at it for 12 hours now. I looks like another 4 or more to go before I call it quits for the day........
I hope everyone had a nice Sunday.

Exercise? Yes, a rather leisurely (for us) 25 minute walk with my husband, but over 11,000 steps for the day so far and it is only 7 pm.
Logged and Under? Yes.
I have decided to adjust my daily goal to reflect my step total. Under 3,000 sedentary, under 8,000 lightly active, over 8,000 active. Most days I will be considered "active" so I should have no trouble staying under. If I have a lazy day, I will adjust my goal down and therefore my calorie goal will also be lower.6 -

My plan is to maintain with more calories than before so I am dropping the calories very slowly. So far so good.
Have a great day tomorrow all.

It was a tough day today. I was up way too late, so I didn't get enough sleep, then overheated in the yard from not having breakfast early enough. The same workout 3 days ago was almost impossible- barely made it through. I was weak and dizzy and tired for the rest of the day. No p.m. walk either. Going to bed early and pushing the reset button- boop. Monday will be better!
