    Monday, October 04
    • Exercise: gym
    • Knee push-ups: yes, 3x10
    • Net calories: 670
    • Protein: 49
    • Steps: 11.101 / 8.500
    Ramblings of the day
    Good morning team. I had an okay day, though I was exhausted most of the time. My shoulder was almost painfree at the gym, so I did all my exercises normally again. Got the knee push-ups done and a decent amount of steps. I burned a bit more than I expected, hence the (too) low net cals. Protein wasn't enough either. Today will be better. This week is going to really busy and I am not looking forward to it.

    Hi @jessicakrall8 I've just realised I had forgotten to join this month's step challenge.Please put me down for 15,000 I don't tend to walk enough in the autumn as it's usually wet & miserable.I enjoy my local park & just walking around my neighbourhood.
    I am struggling to eat less calories as I've got used to eating more !
    Need to clear out the kitchen cupboards of sugary snacks or just need some will power to resist.Had a good morning & went to the gym.I had to work on my legs & cardio as need to be careful moving my arm.I got quite a sweat on,it was a good feeling to get moving again.Just going to walk into town to shop for some groceries.

    Captain's Challenge

    Week 1,
    • What area did you work on during week 1?
    • What were your challenges?
    • What went well?
    • What did you learn about your journey?

    Week 2,
    • What area are you focusing on this week?
    • What are you concerns?

    Looking forward to hearing more from each of you...
    Jessica

    Week 1 didn't have any focus because I didn't know about the challenge.

    Week 2
    I'll be focusing on calorie intake. After my follow-up with the dietician my goal is 1500-1700 calories per day. Protein is my issue. I'm supposed to eat 70-90g a day. That's easier said than done but I'm determined!

    Colleague smoked me some pork and shredded it!! Very low in fat and quick to reheat in the evenings on piano nights...tonight it was delicious...froze half of it for another time, but I have enough for several meals over the next week or so...

    Had a very busy day with a very annoying boss...so glad to be home...just finished my steps for the day...always good to wind down with a walk...clears my head...only one lesson tonight, so didn't take long...whew...I'm gonna go lie down and finish my book.

    Anyone else on this team a bookworm, like I am?!!! What's everyone currently reading? Love cozy mysteries, but currently I'm reading about a woman who loses her husband suddenly and how she works on building up the relationship between herself and her two daughters...really good read. The Widow's Waltz...

    Nite all...have a great Wednesday...

    Ramblings of the day
    Good morning team. Tuesday is my rest day, though I wasn't that lazy. I got groceries in the morning, and I spent around 2 hours total working in the garden. I am getting new plants delivered on Thursday. I moved to this house in March and I got new plants in the spring, but now that summer is over, there are a few things I want to add/change. My dad is coming over Friday to help. I don't have a car, so I can't buy soil and tree bark by myself. I don't want him to do everyhing either, so I am trying to do some prep work already. I had a good food day and nice steps.

    I love reading! I generally read several books a week. They are expensive though, so I also reread a lot. My main genre is fantasy. Currently rereading Wild Magic by Tamora Pierce.
