    ✅ - take 10,000 steps. 22,000
    ✅ - drink 80 oz water. 80
    ✅ - eat at/under calorie goal - To be honest - I went over by 250 calories today. But. I walked 22,000 steps, I'm not eating back my calories, and I got my first vaccine today and my arm is a bit sore. And I got a whole heck of a lot of desk work done! So I'm giving myself back 250 exercise calories today.

    ✅ - take 10,000 steps. 16,000
    ✅ - drink 80 oz water. 80
    ❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - whoa nelly - things really went off the rail yesterday. But man - I feel fantastic this morning! Perhaps I really needs those extra 2,200 calories? Going to be more sensible from here on in. Severe calorie deficit worked when I had more body fat. Not any more - sends me in a tailspin after about a week.

    Sorry guys I've been appalling with my check ins lately, have only been half logging too.

    So hard to get back into a routine.

    This week's goals:

    🚶🏻‍♀️ 30 minutes of activity per day
    📉 250 cal deficit average (per Libra)
    📝 100% logging of all foods/drinks

    ✅ - take 10,000 steps. 22,000

    ❎ - drink 80 oz water. Not sure how much - but too much for a long walk. Not sure how I'm going to handle this situation. But going to stop tracking water next week for sure because the need to wee is becoming a major issue and no shewee in sight yet - and even if it was - it won't always be an option. :(

    ❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - whoa nelly redux - not as bad as Saturday, but the track was nowhere in sight last night. My own fault, because dinner was later I figured I would just skip my planned evening snack of yogurt and berries and walnuts thinking it would help make up for Saturday's binge, but that just didn't fly. That box of Bisquick that has sat on the shelf for almost a year, minding its own business, not bugging me at all, turned itself into a plate of pancakes. Have to do some serious rethinking; last year's approach just isn't working in 2021.

    As long as your pee is pale straw color (pictures/charts exist online)... you're hydrated.

    if reasonably more liquid helps with caloric management why not; but I don't personally log water or have a personal goal regarding water. Mind you.... each day I drink a (filled at the ~10 cup mark) coffee pot by myself... so I probably start my day with 80oz and then there's a couple of cans of coke Zero and the occasional large or extra large decaf on the road... No wonder I'm looking for trees! 😅
