    OK, while I was walking, I thought of something that you all might be wondering that I want to clarify.

    I stated on my exercise goal line 10,000+ steps and 30 minute active minutes goal on my apple watch.

    You might be thinking, Duh Tracey if you do 10,000+ steps you will automatically get 30 active minutes.

    To clarify, most if not all of my steps I plan to do while at work. While I am at work, I can't wear my fitbit or apple watch so I track my steps on my non bluetooth pedometer and I manually add my walks that I do at work to my fitbit to track my steps.

    When I get home from work I then put my apple watch on which has no active minutes so I have to get my 30 minutes after work by doing a workout of some type or actively movement.

    The rest of the month will be a real challenge as I begin working half days next week and will be leaving work at 12:00 (leaving me with 4 and 5 hour work days. I still want to be able to get my 10,000 while at work. I believe I can do it.

    Don't be so hard on yourself <3 At least you were walking and not just sitting at work.

    Hope you're doing well, Tracey. I've been trying to keep up the exercise, too, although it can be tough in the summer heat!

    Hello all, Sorry I have been MIA but all is well...Still working on getting back on track. This go-around has really been tough, but I am not giving up. I am planning on beginning a new challenge on 1 September so maybe that will give me the push that I need.

    Get all competing commitments out of the way and you will succeed.

    Thanks Joe, You are right, I just need to focus on what I know works for me and do it. And that is OMAD. I am on day 2 of my monthly 3 day fast and it will be back to basic OMAD come Thursday. I need to keep the "I eat once a day" phrase repeating in my head. I will succeed!

    I have started a new thread, my last and final thread and will no longer be updating this thread. Please follow me on my new thread. My name is Tracey and I Eat One Meal a Day. Uncomplicating things there and getting back to what has proven to work and will work for me once again. See you there.
