Hovering near the 150s. So typical lol.

Tried this today and thoroughly recommend: https://pinchofnom.com/recipes/nandos-peri-peri-chicken/ We used chicken breasts and had it with a mixed pepper rice, but I think it'd be equally nice with salad and/or chips. I don't think it would reheat well as the chicken would dry out, but could be eaten cold, so I might chuck an extra chicken breast in next time to try it for lunch. We aim to try a new recipe each week, and then a few of them make it into our meal plans regularly.

We went for a shorter walk than originally anticipated today because one of our cats has a bladder/urine infection. We took him to the vet on Friday after he started peeing outside of the litter tray, and so we didn't want to be out too long. We're having to shut the doors to our upstairs rooms (when do carpets stop being new?!) but there's still plenty of other places he could go. He's on antibiotics and we'll take another urine sample to the vet at the end of the week to be re-tested. We walked to the local designer outlet and it was heaving with small queues for most stores and big queues for the most popular. Got lunch at Subway, found a bench to sit on so we could eat, then walked home.

Have been cleaning and tidying, still got a reasonable amount to do as I want to bottom the rooms we can, because then we won't need to do such a deep clean again before the end of the month. Will carry on with that tonight/tomorrow evening! I'm not sure how many calories my Garmin thinks I'm burning (there has been a fair bit of scrubbing!), but will steer clear of the exercise calories today anyway.

Happy mothers day!

Good start to the week. Results could have been better if I stayed consistent. Progress in being less sedentary. Let's keep going!

@conleywoods those are beautiful! We mostly see bluebells (and dandylions!) around here.

Pleased with that loss, though I think I probably just sweat off another 0.3kg 😉 with a 7am run none the less! The sun is shining (unexpectedly, was due to rain all week) and it's very warm when you're in it.

I want to maintain my focus this month as I really want to get under 80kg. That's my next milestone and I'm so close. Not eating exercise calories really works for me, as @jugar suggested it might, so thats the key to my master plan. It's nice to have the option sometimes if I'm particularly hungry or having cravings, but it needs to be the exception rather than the rule.

This is the MAGIC NUMBER CHALLENGE - a consistency challenge.

Morning everyone! The sun is back out in Alberta today - woo hoo! We are working from our trailer today so we will get out for a walk at lunch around the park since we drive home tonight. Don't like to leave exercise for transition times just in case, but I may try to fit in some additional movement tonight if possible.
