    Good morning.

    7/12 steps 4,455

    Ugh, I hurt myself jogging the other night so did not walk last night and am taking a few days off of exercise to rest so my steps will be awful the next few days.

    That’s a bummer. I hope you feel better soon!!

    Exercise 3 mile trail at lake

    Dad asked if I wanted to go walk with him before he went to work so I met him at the lake at 7am. It was nice and cool and there was hardly anyone there. It's a great time to go, usually I'm still sleeping at that time haha. After lunch I mowed the lawn and edged the front so no problem with steps for the day! Dad's been struggling for the last few weeks with his eating but it's great to see him getting out there and not giving up.

    That sounds so lovely! I bet that was nice quiet time with just you and your dad. And you mowed the lawn?? My goodness. That’s a busy day, and starting so early too lol. I’m sorry your dad is struggling, but hopefully he’s on the upswing.

    Good morning! I can’t believe it’s already almost noon.

    Definitely didn’t do much yesterday. I finished my book, and by the time I was done I didn’t feel like doing anything else. Not to mention when I did feel like taking the dog on our walk it was pouring down rain. I wasn’t going to get caught in a rainstorm again! Lol

    Today I am making myself spend at least an hour on the treadmill - which is not hard - I put on a show, and just walk. It’s nice: it’s in the air conditioning, and NOT in the rain. Ha! If the weather holds up, I’ll also try to squeeze in a walk for the doggo as she hasn’t had one in a couple days. Also have to do some cleaning, so that’ll be some steps, as well. Gotta get back on track!

    What’s crazy is that I’m kiiiiiiinda looking forward to school starting back up ONLY because I get out of my vacation mindset. I make myself walk at least a mile during my planning period, which helps me reach my step goal everyday. That’s literally the only reason lol. Otherwise I wish it was summer vacation forever! 🤣

    Have a great day everybody!

    I've been exercising a lot. Summer is great for exercising. I bike and hike all the time. I still need to cut down on the food and drinks.

    Another great workout in the books! I can’t even imagine burning 2283 calories. Amazing burn! 🔥 🔥 🔥 Ok, I am jealous of those steaks. I can’t wait until hubby gets his dentures so we can have a great steak. Hopefully, the stars will align. What are your tips for cooking a good steak?

    @amymartin555
    Thanks for all the great tips!

    @MSWarrior7088
    Nice loss! Great job on meeting all your goals.

    @lmf1012
    Listen to your body. It’s more important to recover than count steps.

    @littleflutterby
    Fantastic loss! Do you think the swimming helped?

    @Tazaria87
    Awesome steps! What a great way to spend time with your Dad. He will get back on track. He’s got you to setting a good example of how it’s done.

    @rwood566
    That’s so funny. Great job measuring though. Enjoy your cupcakes.

    @red1185
    Sounds like you have a great plan for today and when you go back teaching.

    @lcfa5317
    Keep enjoying the hiking and biking. It offsets those yummy foods and drinks.

    @888Angie888
    Nice steps!

    Congrats to our awesome steppers for the week!

    ✅Steps 8,164
    ✅Sleep
    ✅Walk
    ❌ 7/8 hourly reminders

    Missed one hourly reminders as my physio was longer so I went directly to the next room for massage. The Fitbit reminder went off during my massage. I didn’t walk to Tim Hortons as planned but somehow my steps hit 8k.

    I am in a foul mood today because of my back so I will leave it at that. 🤷‍♀️


    Hope you are having a great Tuesday!

    Well number one... A nicely marbled steak is number one.

    I take steaks out of the freezer in the morning and let them sit on the counter all day... They are completely room Temp by the time I cook em. Heck if you buying fresh steaks, for a big gig of occasion. I've put steaks directly into the fridge for up to 3 days, flipping them over occasionally. You meat might even start to turn and get slightly discoloured in spots, but this mean's more good taste and tenderness (And it's only on the outside, it will cook just fine). hehe

    Kosher salt, and don't be to shy (this also highly depends on the Thickness of the steak)... Your BBQing, so a lot of this salt will run off (plus I'm on Keto, so salt is actually my friend so bonus for me)... And salt actually brings out flavor in everything it touches. Then I particularly like a good heavy lair of Granulated Garlic Powder, and Granulated Onion Powder again don't be shy. Then last but not least you favorite make of montreal steak spice the heavy you go with the Steak spice, the less salt in the first step. It's all a balancing act.

    Grill should be absolutely piping hot... 550+ sometimes more if I can get it there. Then open it only long enough to get each steak on the grill. Assuming 1" thick steaks, it only takes 4-5 minutes for the first side, then flip just once... And another 4 minutes. This should be long enough, to see nice grill mark and good browning. fat might ignite here and there, so keep an ear open. (Cause the lid should be closed the whole time) only time you open if it, is if there is a run away fire. Note you don't have the steaks into long, so even if there is some good fires going, they won't really do to much harm. Granted those particular fiery steaks will be done a bit sooner then the others.

    Then Pull em... Your done... Get em to the table and dig right in, while they are still pipping hot. 😎

    Long story short I didn't get any sleep last night... Well almost none. I didn't walk this morning. But I did drag my butt to work.

    This is from around noon today. (From my news feed).

    So, it's been a long day... Lots of work to do, mood meh. Sleep needed and all that stuff. 😐

    But I had itch in the back of mind from the minute I got to work... Itch... Itch... Itch. 🤨

    So yeah, I didn't walk this morning and I slept like crap. 😝

    The problem has now been solved. The itch has been scratched. And to be honest I feel really good about it. 👍😎😀

    Problem now is I'm soaked, and I didn't bring a change of clothes to work... My underwear is thoroughly stuck to my *kitten* and ball sack (To much detail?). But thankfully, I had a shower this morning, and I sweat so frequently I've for the most part purged most of the "Stank" from my body. 🦨

    It's 1pm now.... How long before I pull the pin? Hmmmm Not sure.

    So, thank you to each and every one of you Jerks that held me accountable this morning and occupied my mind. It worked again, and I wouldn't want it any other way. 😁 Perhaps next time, I'll bring a change of clothes, or a towel or something? Even just a fresh pair of dry underwear would be sweet.

    I'm also grate full for Lynn who already let me know she's going to take supper cooking duty tonight. 😆

    As for the walk itself. Knowing it's really humid today. And that I didn't want to be soaked to the bone. I just walked. No slogging required. Unfortunately, even a non-stop walk where I hovered around 140-145 most of the time... Was plenty enough of walk to get me pretty wet. (behave). 😅

    I basically walked from our shop, down the street to the Nearest park, and did a lap around the park and back. 1.57 miles or something like that. So, pretty much smack dab around my usual morning burn.

    All is now right in Poo-Land. Have an amazing day my Friends (*kitten*) which ever you prefer. 😉

    6gc03o9jo061.jpg

    And if anyone is interested in some humor with the weight lifter slant...

    Without further to do... What you all didn't know you were waiting for... The following photo is of one of my Ironmaster Dumbells 75 Lb, complete with heavy handle kit (+15 Lb), and 120Lb expansion pack.

    For a total of 135 pounds per dumbbell. And for *kitten* and giggles I threw on some magnetic plate mates pushing them to 142.5 Lbs each. 👀

    Can I lift it... Um nope. 😆 But it's a thing of pure beauty none the less. 🤓👍

    PS they actually have another expansion adding another 45Lb per Dumbbell but let's be serious. I may never have need of it. 😝

    PSS this isn't a bad buy... Once I require more then 90 pound dumbells, I will indeed require it. And it's happening before the year is out. (Assuming good health and all that, knock on wood). 😬

    PSSS... Minus the plate mates the total length of the dumbbell is about 19.5 inches. Which is actually pretty compact for much poundage. 🤠

    PSSSS... Why are you still reading this? You must be a die hard. 😆😛

    Chow 😃🤗

    Good evening everybody!

    I followed through and spent a lot of time on the treadmill! 100 minutes, 5 miles, and more than 10,000 steps! I put on a show, and just walked and walked and walked! I’m tired lol.

    I made burgers for dinner. 2 with regular Kraft sliced cheese, and 2 with Brie. I had a slice of Brie while I was cooking. I added sautéed mushrooms and caramelized onions - de-lish! I thought about buying frozen fries, but 2 things stopped me: 1. I have potatoes, and figured I could make fries myself, and 2. I remembered that I had frozen cauliflower tots already. So… I made the cauliflower tots - definitely a better calorie decision. They’re ok - they hit the spot for carbs, but I’m sure most of us can agree that nothing can compare to a fry lol.

    Anyway, I’m going to try to make very good caloric choices this week because tomorrow, 7/14, is Bastille Day. My family always goes to the most delicious little French restaurant for Bastille Day (I wish I was French, but sadly I am not lol)…and calories are not a thing that I count when I’m there. I want all the bread, cheese, and wine when I’m there. I guess that means more treadmill time for me, and that’s ok!

    I hope you all have a wonderful evening!

    I am so loving forward to a juicy rare steak. Thanks for the tip. Why do you need lots of salt when on keto? Salt is my enemy as I gain water weight if I have too much.

    Like I said before a professional gym has nothing on yours. Great job going for a walk on your lunch break. It would have been so easy to blow it off.


    @red1185
    That is commitment! Nice walking! I think one of my favourite things to eat is French fries. I don’t get them very often and when I do I carefully weight out my portion. Otherwise, I would just go crazy on them. I am excited to go to Newfoundland to get some chips, dressing and gravy. Think poutine with lots of dressing on top. Enjoy your meal at the French restaurant.

    Hi all. Good evening.

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 I'm glad you were able to get out today in spite of the headache. May they keep getting better. Enjoy the walk.

    @MSWarrior7088 a win is a win. Nice steps and you got to eat with your son.

    @Poobah1972 I think I got a hernia just looking at that dumbbell. Have a blast working your way up to it. Very nice walk today.

    I know I wanted to comment on more posts but I can't recall them, even though I just read them. I'm sorry.

    Check in for 7/13:
    Steps - 4407. I will have more tomorrow.
    Calories - 1436. Included 3 mini cupcakes. I ate them just for the calorie hit. Didn't eat much calorie wise before dessert.
    Exercise - no. Lots of driving, even more stress. Grabbed a bottle of water instead of food.

    Story of my day. Sorry in advance.
    Drove 30 miles in rush hour traffic, when isn't it anymore, to get compression socks. That turned into a wasted trip since the v.a. hospital doesn't carry them. I have to get them from the outside, 2 miles from home. They could have told me over the phone, but no, they wanted me to waste 4.20 a gallon gas going 60 miles. I decided to get my chest gray and blood work while I was there. Radiology said a 45 minute wait for chest shoots so i told them i was going to get my blood draw while i waited. That took 30 minutes and the lady that jabbed me must be a sadist. She tried to reach my shoulder from my elbow. It was already bruising by the time she was done. I went back to xray and was told I missed my call. Had to wait an hour. 7 films later, only 2 poses, I was done. The tech kept having to reshoot since she couldn't find the bottom of my lungs. She came out, said I had very long lungs and moved it. 4 times. Are my lungs now hanging down to my belly button?
    I came home to eat a quick lunch before heading to another v.a. facility for 1PM appt. I didn't want to sit in my car thru lunch waiting for 1 1/2 hours. I got there 30 minutes early and waited an hour, notice the theme developing. It will be repeated again. Finally got to see the nurse and almost went down. He kept telling me how important low b/p is and I kept telling him I didn/t have a high pressure problem. 10 minutes of him droning on, not listening to me. We couldn't understand my dr's instructions so we did the test how we thought it was. Is wasn't. He had me wait in the lobby while he tried to verify the test with my dr. Waited for, yep, an hour. I got tired of waiting and walked out. He called as I was driving out of the lot and had me come back for the correct test. After laying down 2 minutes, b/p check, standing 10 minutes with checks at 2,5 and 10 minutes they finally realized I didn't have a high pressure problem. I have a low problem, which is what I had been telling them. Then they said I really needed to get to cardio. Really? I have only been trying for FOUR MONTHS!! Stress, frustration, cranky from lack of sleep last night, like a lot of you it seems, made for a small calorie dinner and the cupcakes. Only good thing was one was sugar free.

    I just remembered I get to go back next week for a shingles shot. What will go wrong that time?

    Just for fun, in the 10 minutes i was standing my numbers went from 118/78 pulse 72 to 98/66 pulse 120. Problem spotted.

    Glad your headache has improved. I didn’t know there was vitamins for headaches. Sounds like you guys had a great day shopping. Enjoy your walk today.

    @MSWarrior7088
    Awesome steps! Great job staying under. Did you enjoy your dinner out?

    @rwood566
    What a crazy stressful day. I am glad you are starting to get answers. Will you have to wait long to get into cardio? I am amazed at people who don’t eat when they are stressed. I just want to devour everything in sight. That is really low blood pressure. How has your back been lately? Did all the driving hurt it?

    @lindamtuck2018 thank you! I love French fries too! They’re yummy, but also so addictive. I’ve been wanting to try poutine. I love love love to travel, and Canada is on my bucket list of places to visit. Not to mention that in my mind food and travel go hand-in-hand. My motto is “eat around the world” 🤣. When I eventually get there, that’s definitely going to be one of the first things I order lol.

    Check in for Tuesday
    ✅Steps 6,888
    ✅Sleep
    ✅Walk
    ❌ 7/8 hourly reminders

    Did a short walk yesterday. Missed a reminder to move again. My back as been really acting up since Monday evening. I am not sure if it was the massage or if I have been pushing it too much. I am going to rest for a couple of days. My patience is wearing thin waiting for the specialist appointments.

    I am hoping the pool opens Friday so I can transition from walking to swimming. I am going to start using the recumbent bike also. The physiotherapist said I am not allowed to lift weights yet. If they don’t open the pool in the building I am going to look into getting a membership at the gym that’s about 5 minutes from here. It has a pool. I am also going to look into some deep water aqua fit at another facility. I have a plan so all is good.

    Happy Hump Day!

    @Poobah1972
    I am so loving forward to a juicy rare steak. Thanks for the tip. Why do you need lots of salt when on keto? Salt is my enemy as I gain water weight if I have too much.

    Carb diet... Mean's the body builds glycogen both in the liver and in the muscle tissue. The creation and storage of Glycogen requires water (Thus increased water weight) and in that water in all those cells you will find salts and electrolytes.

    When On a Ketogenic diet, your body burns all sources of glycogen in your body (Liver and muscle tissue). Water weight get's flushed right out, and with it so does the majority of your Salts and Electrolytes. It's actually the Electrolyte Imbalance that causes the Keto Flu symptoms. (which can be avoided if you take increase salt, potassium, and zinc supplements, which I do through a 1.5 serving of a Keto/Vegan electrolyte drink).

    So yeah, I can literally eat as much salt as I want... As my liver is busy depleting salts all day long, Where as normally your liver stores them on regular type diets. I got the blood work to prove it. lol

    I consider it a perk of going Keto.. As Salt really is a flavor intensifier. And I love my food. lol

    Pool sounds great... Heck it was nice going to the Beach last Saturday. First time I took a dip in a long while. I even took my shirt off.. I'm long past carrying what any body thinks of me. Cause I'm awesome. lol

    The theater's are opening up on Friday. So I think I might just buy a ticket for me and Lynn to enjoy a show. :)

    Wacky Wednesday Everyone... 😃🤓

    I got my sleep, feeling back to normal. And when I say normal, I should say WACKY!!! 🤪

    Gota Keep moving this morning... So, I'll keep it short.

    I got up. I ellipticalled. I sweated (balls of course) 😆 . Showered, Yeep. 👍

    Hmmm don't mind the heart rate it clearly wasn't registering the upper range correctly today. Doh! 😛

    So now I just got a get through the workday, and I'll be able to come home to our Chest, Tricep and Shoulder workout. (shoulder is still bugging me unfortunately). 😐

    So, do get down to business, but don't forget to be a little wacky, especially on Wednesdays!!!!

    Love you guys!!! (Yeah I used that word) 💖🤗🤗🤗

    Glad your headache has improved. I didn’t know there was vitamins for headaches. Sounds like you guys had a great day shopping. Enjoy your walk today.

    @MSWarrior7088
    Awesome steps! Great job staying under. Did you enjoy your dinner out?

    @rwood566
    What a crazy stressful day. I am glad you are starting to get answers. Will you have to wait long to get into cardio? I am amazed at people who don’t eat when they are stressed. I just want to devour everything in site. That is really low blood pressure. How has your back been lately? Did all the driving hurt it?

    No walk today .... I got a migraine last night and still have a slight one this morning ... if I can we will be cleaning the house today ... I am afraid to go walking and get light headed away from home ...I am hoping to go on our long walk on Saturday

    I’m glad your headache was only in the morning. Hopefully the vitamins will help reduce them even more. Sounds like you had an enjoyable day with your daughter.

    Thanks @red1185 :)

    Tracked Yes
    Under Calorie Yes
    Water 108oz
    Steps 9089
    Exercise 3mile loop at lake

    Met my dad early again for a walk. Probably won't happen again this week as he has to travel for work for a couple of days now. This weekend we are going camping. I'm going to make a couple different kinds of healthy muffins and maybe cookies to help with being snacky. I always want to snack while camping for some reason. @lindamtuck2018 I won't have access to my scale Saturday so can I weigh in on Friday this week?

    Absolutely! Camping sounds like so much fun. Nice steps! Is there different loops at the lake?
