Exercise? Yes, a difficult 1hr+ hike. It felt great to get my heart pumping.
Calories? Yes
Tracking? Yes7 -
Logged and Under? Yes.
Exercise? Yes, a 39 minute walk and 23 minutes of beginner strength. I did my hand weights outside on the back porch....not because it was cool and breezy out there (just the opposite, in fact), but because I fear I will wear out my area rug if I keep working out in the living room!7 -
Yes x3
We did our first grocery order since March (we had a lot of staples, frozen veggies, and Blue Apron delivery so hadn't run low til now) which was great since it brought in some fresh veggies and fruit. My goal is to start eating fresh fruit most days since I haven't always had much fruit in the past. Today I had bananas on my cereal and strawberries with an alfajor for dessert.
I also tried out new recipes for homemade guac and salsa. The salsa recipe uses canned tomatoes and is easy to make in bulk and is a low-calorie condiment. I think I'm going to try keeping this in the fridge as a savory snack option and just being careful about measuring out the tortilla chips and sticking to that.
Exercise today was a morning 75 minute walk and 25 minute calisthenics.8 -
Yeah x 3! Thank goodness for this challenge as it was one of those days where I would have easily skipped exercise for the couch. But instead, enjoyed weight lifting 🏋🏾♀️9

So far so good this month. I've been able to keep calories way below my commitment. My activity routine is where it should be with steady improvement. Feels great to be getting back into my good habits...just the way I knew it would. Since it is so tied up with your emotions, willpower and tenacity you have to be all in.
Read everybody's post on what they are grateful for. Thanks for sharing. A grateful heart is a blessing to us personally and others.

A really good day!
Went to my first Pilates class inside since loosening of lockdown. 7 of us, bring your own mat, come dressed for the class because the changing room is closed, hand sanitizer by the door and you're always at double arms length distance anyway. Love little Coralie, the teacher. She's tough, but very thoughtful, knows about my leg issue and always gives me a slightly different way to tackle the exercise if she thinks my knee might suffer. Was great, set me up for the day!
Calories: Yes, stayed under. Enjoyed my food!
Tracking: Yes, logged everything.
Doing a Yoga class this morning.9 -
Exercise - Yes - full body lifting, went up in weight/reps for several muscle groups, so that felt good.
Tracked - Yes
Calories - Yes
Yesterday I skipped a meal and wondered if it was a breakthrough. Today I thought about food much more often (back to baseline), but in a different way than before. A healthier, "hunger isn't an emergency" pattern of thinking that is unfamiliar to me. For dinner I ate what would've been a normal portion for me a month ago, but I felt uncomfortably full. I think my stomach is shrinking along with my irrational sense of urgency when it comes to food.7 -
Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes, I should have added a walk too for more activity.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? No, I was short by 150 calories (leftover birthday cake or too much dinner).
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes8 -
Exercise: Yes
Tues: 30 min step cardio
Calories: Yes
Tracking: Yes
I've been trying to wake up earlier to work out instead of working out after work. While I don't get as long to work out (30 min is the max in the mornings), the option is there to ALSO work out after work if I want to, but I feel better working out in the mornings and it's only 4 days a week, so I can work out longer on the other 3 days!7 -
3 x yes again (lots and lots of walking - paced though more-than-an-hour teleconf plus evening walk with DH)

Your work day involves swimming with seals?? Wow! What an amazing life!
Yip, my life is awesome. I work at a specialist zoo and look after seals, penguins, reptiles and tarantulas. Partly to give the animals enrichment with no visitors, partly to get the youngsters used to people in the water and partly because we are having some unseasonal warm weather and I love swimming! I get in the water on at least 1 day of my shift.7 -
