Pass day #far too many plus one
Another chaotic work day with my friends. End of my teams shift so we need to disinfect everything as well. And luckily my supervisor came in to help tube the python. My friend’s boyfriend even helped hold her still once the head was safely restrained. I’m dead tired and haven’t logged anything today. Luckily I managed to swop my church media duty tonight because I need to be at work at 4:30 to help tag the rehab seals and then go to sea to drop them off in the current that will take them south. Gonna try fall asleep before 7pm!
I had to stop at the shops to get snacks for the boat tomorrow and I officially hate sanitizer. My hands are covered in cuts from feeding penguins so every drop off the alcohol sanitizer burns in multiple places. I am even wearing my watch on the wrong arm because they bit me where I normally wear it and the strap rubs. I take the watch off when I work with them because they have cracked the screen protector before (by getting their beak under the plastic bumper I have as well). Vicious little demons.12 -
@Dory_42 I am still laughing at you calling penquins "vicious little demons" That's great!

I remembered to wear my smartwatch for today's workout. And, coincidentally, the instructor happened to estimate our calorie burn for today's session (I've not heard her do that before).
She pegged 500 calories and when I showed my smartwatch display, she was pleased to have been so close.
So while it still seems skeptically high to me, I'll take it (along with the huge helping of curried shrimp and naan I decided to devour for dinner).7 -

Favorite summer activity is likely why I am here - probably "eating". I am not a summer person. Fall is my favorite. I am not a bright sun, heat, humidity, or water person. So of course it made a lot of sense that hubby and I bought a place in the Florida Keys last year. I think I'm going to need to find a better favorite summer "activity". :P

Pass day #far too many plus one
Another chaotic work day with my friends. End of my teams shift so we need to disinfect everything as well. And luckily my supervisor came in to help tube the python. My friend’s boyfriend even helped hold her still once the head was safely restrained. I’m dead tired and haven’t logged anything today. Luckily I managed to swop my church media duty tonight because I need to be at work at 4:30 to help tag the rehab seals and then go to sea to drop them off in the current that will take them south. Gonna try fall asleep before 7pm!
I had to stop at the shops to get snacks for the boat tomorrow and I officially hate sanitizer. My hands are covered in cuts from feeding penguins so every drop off the alcohol sanitizer burns in multiple places. I am even wearing my watch on the wrong arm because they bit me where I normally wear it and the strap rubs. I take the watch off when I work with them because they have cracked the screen protector before (by getting their beak under the plastic bumper I have as well). Vicious little demons.
Even though you are taking more pass days then you want and haven't been able to exercise or log your food like usual past few days, you have to burn off ALOT of calories at your job! I bet you would be surprised that you are doing better than you think because naturally without added exercise you are so busy in your day and seldom sit! Congrats I think you are GREAT!4 -
Date: 11/29
Exercise: Yes 20 mins only today for me on treadmill. To busy with clean up after baby shower and had an interview for a nanny job, yep still looking for a job! ( burned only 114 calories) my lowest amount on a non pass day, but I did the 20 mins!

Tomorrow is my " Weigh Day" as most of you know I weigh start of challenge and then not until last day of challenge. It just works best for me! I am so excited to see how I did. The past 2 months I lost 6 pounds each month for total of 12 pounds in 2 months. Hoping I keep that track going strong! I will be posting the loss tomorrow! Fingers crossed!5 -
