    @playhardkf2017 once you have ramped up your metabolism during exercise, it does stay ramped up for hours, at least that is what I have read. My first “tool” was a Polar heart rate monitor with a chest strap. It records your heart rate and the app lets you know if you need to slow down. I used mine at the gym all the time. Based on the info you provide it, it gives calorie burn also. I can’t believe it’s been almost a year since I used it! 7v518n9yk4s7.png

    ▪Day1▪︎ Th•9/09- 200.6
    (We•9/08 -3:30pm, 8pm; 20.5hrs;) 56g carbs; Fiber•23g; 72ozs water.

    (Fr•9/10 -2:30pm, 7pm; 19hrs) 122g carbs; Fiber•12g; 60ozs water. High sodium crustless toppings pizza (so good!) AND I ate 2 Naan. WHY? because they were there. The pizza was planned, the Naan wasn't, but fluid retention and bloat in the same day and get it over with is a plus. Dropped a bit of bodyfat too!

    (Sa•9/11 -1:30pm, 8pm; 18.5hrs) 55g carbs; Fiber•12g; 78ozs water. No where near enough protein yesterday. Kept feeling hungry, so I ate a cup of broccoli cheddar soup in the evening. Dropped a little more bodyfat.

    ▪Day5▪︎ Mo•9/13- 199.2
    (Su•9/12-1pm, 3pm, 6:30pm; 17hrs) 22g carbs; Fiber•25g; 68ozs water. Carbquik cheese biscuits. Yummy. I ate 4. They're 2 bite size, 86/Cals-1.4g/Carbs-7.3g/Fat-3.3g/Prot. Okay, no more for me.

    ▪Day6▪︎ Tu•9/14- 199.6

    (Th•9/16 - 4pm, 7pm; 19hrs) 21g carbs; Fiber•10g; 48ozs water.
    Running errands, very little water intake. Tiny drop in bodyfat%

    Your comment got me curious again to look more into this and I found this article: https://www.runnersworld.com/training/a22024491/how-many-calories-do-you-really-burn-post-workout/

    I have my garmin watch with the heart rate sensor in it and sometimes post-workout it increases a bit more. I wonder how accurate it is.

    9/9 211.8
    9/10 211
    9/11 210 After a day on antibiotics due to tooth pain, I got in for an evaluation with an endodontist, who is going to re-treat a two year old root canal, but can't schedule me in until Oct 6th. Suddenly, my concern about weight loss shifted to pain control! I was exhausted after driving to the big town with an endo since my brother who I'm visiting lives out in the boonies. Sleep & rest are restorative.
    9/12
    9/13
    9/14 214.4 going in the wrong direction! I swam yesterday & felt the effects of endorphins, but was really hungry after swimming. Sadly my planned meals weren't satiating enough, so I overate. Today is a new day. I commit to eating only my planned portions today. Revised goal for this challenge is to be at or close to the weight at which I started this challenge. Dang that means I'll need to lose 3 pounds in 4 days!


    9/15 211 still amazes me how much we can lose (or gain) in a day! At least I'm below where I started this 10 day challenge. Now to drink water, eat we exercise & enjoy this fall day

    9/16
    9/17
    9/18 211.2 Phew, at least I'm a bit less than when I started this challenge!

    I have my garmin watch with the heart rate sensor in it and sometimes post-workout it increases a bit more. I wonder how accurate it is.

    I should have added my original Polar was a watch AND chest strap. When I replaced it I read tons of reviews about the watch’s with built in HRM which said even the HRs weren’t accurate so stuck with the strap and transmitter. I’ve counted my heartbeats and that is accurate with the strap but not the count on the treadmill unless the TM has picked up the watch signal. The calories on the treadmill are always way off the watch/app number of calories which seem to be accurate if weight loss is any indication. 🙂

    @quiltinjaine, I always forget to comment on the Polar watch. I sweated through 3 of those with the chest strap back in the day. They were the best!

    I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

    Round 162
    Month/Day: Exercise / Comment

    9/9: 204.2
    Quite the yoyo. Thankful for the lows. Getting excited about my northern Wisconsin fishing trip. In the past, this has also been an eating trip. We all bring food to share. We have talked about de-emphasizing that aspect of things this year. Talk is cheap.

    9/10: 204.6
    It’s Friday! Starting tomorrow, the more the fish are biting, the less I will be biting.

    9/11: releasing the Kraken! I named my old fishing boat “the Kraken.”
    9/12: releasing the Kraken!
    9/13: releasing the Kraken!
    9/14: releasing the Kraken!

    Back at it! This reading is amazing considering…..
    Had a great time with uncles and cousin on the trip. Not a lot of salad consumed. Ha! Went up there for crappie and caught some but nowhere near the limit. I did boat a very nice walleye that hit my crappie bait.

    Pumpkin Festival starts today.

    I will try try catch up with the 135 posts I missed. 😊

    AAAAAnd there is the Pumpkin Festival food tent showing up. Luckily I was able to burn a few calories by smiling at my 4 year old DGS while he did a few carnival rides.

    9/17: 207.4
    Amazed that there was a drop, all things considered.

    9/18: 208.2
    As expected.

    My major goal was met, but minor goal was an epic fail. I better meet my minor goal next round😊

    General goal was upended by fishing trip and pumpkin festival. Looking forward to improvement.
