Does a 1hr, 3km walk which burned 232 calories count as exercise?
Normally my exercises are a YouTube video which get my heart rate up more. According to my watch only 3 minutes of the walk was actually fat burning due to my heart rate, which I'm assuming was when I had to carry Marley on my shoulders lol.
I just don't feel like I've really exercised because I was just walking lol5 -

Absolutely!!! Not everything has to be a "workout" or "exercise". Physical activity is exercise. Walking is listed in MFP, just pick your pace.2 -
Wednesday
- Log all food ✔️
- 8 cups of water✔️ ticking this now but I will have had 8 by bedtime
- Exercise ✔️
Well what a good day!
I skipped breakfast so I still have them calories left over so I think I will treat myself to dessert tonight!
I've not had all my waters yet, about half, but I'm the kind of person to just chug a glass down lmao. Only my bedtime ones do I sip because I use a straw lol. I expect I'll have a lot of toilet trips though tonight lmao
Feel like I've cheated on the exercise because I don't really count walking because I'm used to walking. But it actually took it out of me today. 3km is quite far and I forgot I had the dog with us so there was more tugging etc. My legs are pretty tired lol and my shoulders hurt from Marleys weight so probs best to rest and do a YouTube work out tomorrow
I did the girls Chicken Korma for tea and for months Marley has been saying she doesn't like it. Today I said "it's chicken in coconut sauce" and apparently its "really nice" says Marley. Why are kids so backwards? 😂

Another strong day. Feels good
For Wednesday, new day.
-Grateful for the many experiences in my life. I was talking to a co worker about the LDS Church as a business entity. I grew to enjoy trips to SLC and had many memorable business dinners including a, strange as it sounds, outstanding sushi dinner that lasted many hours. The pre - opening tours of several Temples also was an interesting experience.
-1900 calories: 1601. Low but ran short on time in the afternoon
-Work out for 90 minutes, make it happen: 86 minutes including an uplifting 47 minute, 2.48 mile outdoor walk
-Invest 15 minutes on personal development: 10 Things you Must Improve Every Day - Jim Rohn Motivation. IT was a Herbalife keynote but the points were still powerful. Rohn is old school but there's not much fluff in his messages.
-Invest 15 minutes on professional development: Started Amy Porterfield's #282. 10 Ways to Repurpose One Single Piece of Content. Good stuff on outsourcing content creation
-Invest 30 minutes on home duties: More than done with keeping up with my stuff and buying new car for my bride.
-Eat dinner at the table and don't snack on the couch: Ate on the couch but stayed within bounds. Didn't snack over overeat
-Eat between 8 and 6: Done
For Thursday, new day.
-Grateful for the many friends and family in my life. Today it's the relationship my wife and her sister have. They are great anchors for each other. We have not connected in our new town, nice that she has her sister to lean on even if it's long distance.

@ZizzyBumble That sounds amazing! I forget how recharging spending time in nature can be.
@teigansdad Nice work with all those checks!
@Bex953172 I hate exercise. Hate it. Until I get started and especially when I’m done and feel good and accomplished. Whoever set that up so we feel good after I have some words for…
@sarah74_vt Nice work getting back on track!
@MLHC1 WOOO! Look at that green streak! Way to be!
@PackerFanInGB I just switched from a FitBit to an AppleWatch and I have the same issue. You have to meet a certain threshold for it to automatically count which sucks, especially when you’re starting slow. Go into the Workout app and pick the closest option to the exercise you're doing, click Start and then the red X when you’re done. That works better for me.3 -

Glad to hear it went well back in the office! I miss my job and my teammates. I miss the social aspect of work!
Thanks for the tip! I hadn't heard of the Workout app. I usually use Map My Walk, but I'm going to check out the other just to compare.

Scale goalsEnd of 2017: 174.6
End of 2018: 189.2
End of 2019: 196.4
End of 2020: 187.4
End of January:
End of February:
Today: 191.6
Ongoing plans/ideas behind the cut1. Purchases: Look for an "ugly Christmas sweater" and a long-haired doll at thrift stores. Practice French braiding. Go to used bookstore and look for On Writing (Stephen King), The Prince (tr. Tim Parks, Russell Price, or Robert Adams), The Secret Adversary (Christie), Hood Feminism (Mikki Kendall).
2. E2: What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Create vocabulary lists for each unit that come from the texts used: Animal Farm, Julius Caesar, Wes Moore, I Am Malala. Find a way to incorporate changing words from one part of speech to another. Students need to know how to review multiple sources and synthesize information in order to draw a conclusion. Need practice with the difference between transitions and overlapping (at end of paragraph - "another issue is Y" vs "there are other issues besides X"). Quit using "in conclusion" and "I believe" and other writing-about-my-writing phrases. Confusion between direct/indirect objects and prepositional phrases. Use the UDHR and the Declaration of Independence to study paraphrasing; use that to front-load Machiavelli and how to deal with challenging texts. Confusion between everyday / every day and similar constructions.
3. E1: Need practice with quoting & paraphrasing sources, identifying claims that would need support, use of last names for reference, and capitalization practice (common/proper nouns, titles). Difficulty using possessive nouns in their own writing. Honors: practice subject/object pronouns (my friend and I / my friend and me). Poetry: Revise "Songs are Poetry" handouts.
4. Curriculum Development: Writing mini-unit. Review scholarly research on 5PE. (I think I can have this as an intro to the research unit so that they also get exposure to how quotes are integrated and cited.) Parallel structure; use of emotional language, specific detail. Use "Write About a Pebble" lesson from Atwell. How long should each unit take? Do research on characteristics: curiosity, persistence, resilience, creativity, responsibility, optimism, courage, integrity, authenticity, leadership, self-awareness, humility, compassion - others? Include grammarly check on essays! Review assessments. What is the purpose for each unit? What should the controlling ideas be in a study of world literature? Review world lit options. Write 1 reflection weekly; type one in Classroom by Weds. Copy-paste to discussion board for comments due Friday. Homework: Online journal Mon due Tue; Reflection Tue due Wed; C&P journal in class Wed; Comments Thu due Fri. Bonus if you are the first response; further bonus if you respond to comments on your post. Grammar practice Mon & Wed; quiz Fri. Unit plan for research (Idea for regular: comparing same story on sites with different biases).
5. Professional Development: Write blog post weekly. Comment on 3 posts each week - Tu Th Sun? Check with PSC. Talk with Z about articles and/or conference proposals.
6. Medical: Dentist call to schedule cleaning – March? ObG schedule for April. Schedule PCP for May.
7. Theater: Little Princess.
8. House: Siding. Or perhaps bathroom floor.
9. Fun: Open beading on Thursdays. Coloring at library on Tuesday. Put jewelry away. Edney Hack Nights alt Weds. ASL? Spanish/Portuguese practice? Practice piano. ROL Secret Adversary. Buy bike rack for car.
10. Volunteering ideas: Theater. Library. Animal shelter. Community Kitchen. Emerge Georgia training.
11. Family: Book group. Dinners?
12. Writing: Blog post: Running, Racism and Rum: Learning to Handle Discomfort. Fanfic: Create a scene list for the Batgirl story. Finish the cafe scene for the Titans story. Open Wordpress in Safari.
13. Lifting: 15 squats, 15 deadlifts, 10 shoulder presses, 15 arm raises, 15 pushups, 30 crunches, 15 side lifts, 15 back kicks, horse stance for 5 breaths.
14. Other: Practice hair braiding with D. Check on appts for drs. Remind D to ask his dad about the table and check with home repair contractors. 3 posts/week? Create test for MLA format. Create test for infographics and visual information. Remember that M does not like surprises! Check dates of classes and update semester plan. She Should Run vision statement. Update standards on board. When to change bulletin board?
WFTY: Persistence. Today is theoretically going to be nice in the afternoon.Reminder: Last year's WFTY was progress, and I am ... actually, I was going to say content, but it's more than that. I'm proud of myself, and I'm pleased with the progress that I made. Even without the challenges throughout the year, I accomplished things that I should be proud of; and given those challenges, I'm even happier about what I was able to do.3 -
Why is it, I can do so well for like 4 days, sometimes even 5, which I did last week. Then I think I am "strong" enough to pick up a box of ice cream, and easter peeps. When I am in the grocery store, I feel good. I am proud of myself because I've had 5 really good days. So I think .. I will buy these, and only eat a very small bowl of ice cream; I will only taste the peeps. Only to devour everything in like 2 days. That is the story of my weight loss attempts this year so far. I will lose weight when I am careful.. when I limit my nite time snacking, and then I think I have more willpower than before. Why do I think that I can limit my snacking when I have that kind of junk around. So ... I have to resist buying it when in the store, no matter what!
But I am back... and tonite I am going to try and read back and respond to SO many posts I have missed.
I have been super busy with yard work .. that is the plus side. I averaged about 15 bags of leaves the past 2 days. And work has been crazy .. so by the time I get on here, I am exhausted, and barely got my goals listed .. and many days, met all the goals except forthe nite time eating. But for me, thats the worse because I can easily add on 500 calories in a evening!
But the good news is that hubby and I will get our first pzifer covid shot this saturday!! I hope this means hubby will allow our daughter in our house! Right now, he is not even letting her come over, because she is actually treating covid patients. She has had both her shots, but he thinks she could pick up covid and give it to us. We argued today about at least letting her be outside.. but he is just so scared. Tonite on the news they talked about covid anxiety. I think this is what he has!
Anyhow, posting my goals. The ice cream is gone. The peeps are gone.
My biggest obstacle is nitetime eating ... I am getting better at the water
And @TerriRichardson112 .. thank you for posting the little water drops! I could not figure out how you guys get those .. a great way to keep track of the challenge!

@Bex953172 so many posts to respond to from you! I love the mirror .. whatever color you decide it will look great. And what happened to Baby Casey!!! Can she really be 3 .. OMG!!! How the years have gone. And she has blond hair?? From what I remember from her baby pictures ... didn't she have tons of really dark hair? I love the walk pictures you posted today also ... so peaceful and beautiful! Your little girls and beautiful little girls, and Ash looks like a nice man! Good looking guy you have there!
Your mental health affects so much .. I am glad that you took 2 months to work on that. I find that for me, excercise is the best thing for my mental health.
@WellingTX -- I so admire you. No matter what, you seem to bounce back. You are a perfect example that this is a journey .. we don't have to be perfect everyday, in fact, we can't be perfect. And like your post said one day .. you have to try something new. I love this quote from you "It's an opportunity to improve not a reason to start tomorrow." You are doing great!
@Snowflake1968 -- great job on the new sink! I'm sure you love having everything back in place and neat and tieded up! Looks so nice!
@jeschepp; I'm starting to realize how much of my mood was based on food. Bad day=have a tasty meal to feel better, great day=have a treat to reward yourself. This may sound weird but it's almost like a loss having to disconnect feeling better from what I eat. Or relying on high calorie foods to feel better.
This is SO me. If I go for a walk in the morning, and feel good, I tend to eat so much better. Its the evening I struggle with .. I think all the stress and problems of the day get to me. Have to figure out a way to stop this. I am anxious for daylite saving time to end ... meaning its light out longer, and I can walk in the evenings also.
I missed about your grandfathers fall .. I hope he is recovering.
@cschmitz - my daughter loves the virtual online races .. almost better than the real ones. She finished 3 half-marathons online, and now is doing a full marathan. Its like you said.. she just logs her miles, and even gets a tshirt and a medal. I walk with a gal who likes to walk a lot of miles, so when I walk with her, its always more than 6 miles at a time. We are up to walking 8 miles now .. which takes us about 2.5 hours. But it goes fast. You are doing great ... I remember you always did so many races, etc.
@PackerFanInGB - happy to see you back, and congrats on the weight loss. Every pound counts, but more importantly, the habits that are being changed!
So many more to respond to ... you are all doing great!4 -

I know she's a big girl now!! And she's potty training too, going well too fast! And yeah it's a weird colour of hair now, it was very dark at first but now it's like the lightest brown/darkest blonde you could have, it's actually my natural hair colour lmao but my hairs not been natural for yeaaars.
Yeah that walk is a couple of roads away at the back of our house and it's massive! Much much bigger than I expected. I darent let the dog off though, I fear I'd lose him!
Casey was at nursery so we didn't take her on the walk, I don't know if she would of made the distance lol thank you for the nice words about my girls and Ash. I love them all very much x

I am soooo tired this morning, watched a docu-series called Don't F... With Cats til the early hours.
It was a good docu-series, sad and grim to watch in parts. Fell asleep so I'll have to go back and watch the rest.
I won't go into what the guy did but a few of you probably know about it with it being based in Canada (Toronto and Montreal)
But I stayed up far too late though.

Stay in the green just wasn't going to happen when I couldn't move about much, 1660 calories
Back exercises no
Walk. It's really cold today! no
Tidy away all the papers I left lying last night yes
Gratitude with a bit of gritted teeth lol...I'm grateful my bank tries it's best to stop customers being scammed and losing money, even if it did take me almost 2 hours on the phone to prove I wasn't scamming myself
Yesterday wasn't the best day. I was tired and in a huge amount of pain, so I only did indoor things and didn't walk, it was a bitterly cold day anyway. There were good parts of the day though. My grandson fell and had to go to hospital as it was possible he was seriously hurt but luckily he will be fine. My family agreed with the accounts I've written. I'm still trying to pay out to the beneficiaries of my Dad's will, didn't think it would be this difficult. Will try again today, at the counter, may have to go by car if I can't manage the walk.
Today I'm still in lots of pain, will list my goals anyway and see what I manage

@mytime6630 I'm glad you are getting your vaccinations, hopefully it will calm your husband's anxiety.
I'm still waiting on mine, had 2 "false alarms" today. First I had mail which looked like it would be an appointment, but was something else entirely, then I actually had a phone call from the hospital appointments team. I thought that was definitely it! But they were wanting to make an appointment for an xray I require. Sigh...third time lucky maybeSnowflake1968 wrote: »

Today is going so slowwww, I feel like I've done a lot but nothing of what I actually need to do.
The water challenge is good but honestly I'm constantly weeing! Does that settle down once I drink 8 cups regularly? Feel like I'm never out the bathroom!
Having a coffee now and gonna try get some serious cleaning done
Ash said he's doing dinner tonight thank god. So hopefully I can get the majority of it done. It's just tiring.2 -
JFT 3/3
Playing catch-up today since I didn’t post yesterday.
Wednesday is my toughest workday, with a busy morning and a block of back-to-back classes from 2-6 PM. My husband is in charge of organizing takeout for dinner. His choice entirely, so I never know what to expect. Last night was kung po chicken, shrimp with mixed vegetables, and brown rice – all things I enjoy, but a challenge to log. My best guess put me in the red, but no matter. It was a lovely meal, and I appreciated the break.
A younger me would have tried to micromanage and fretted over the calories and sodium. Acknowledging and confronting my inner control freak has been hard, often much harder than sticking to an eating or exercise plan. In some ways, the past year has intensified the challenge – so many things beyond my control. I could either sink in frustration or give myself – and others – a little grace. So I’m working on stepping back and letting go with humility and gratitude. It’s a process.
