Best non pool day steps I had in a week. I managed 33 minutes of exercise doing mini walks yesterday. Tomorrow I am going to go to the pool and I will do a workout keeping my head above water. Monday I have to start tackling my lap goal. It will be tough as I am going away for 2 days on the 24th leaving me 11 days to reach the 800 laps. I know I can do it!
Have a super Saturday!6 -

Finally am meeting my hydration goal. Who knew switching from carbonated water to still water would make that big of a difference.

Headed in the right direction. I worry about the Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day throwing me off. I don’t care about the game but I do care about nachos! I’m going to try to up exercise and be mindful of portions. But more importantly, I want to be selective on my indulgences and not use it as an excuse to binge on all the things.

Good evening everyone. Halfway thru the weekend. Keep up the fight.
Check in for 2/12:
Steps - 9577.
Calories - around 1941. Ouch. Had to guess with lunch at sea world. Marti Gras. Ate a little of several things so I was happy. Not happy with snacking/desserts when I got home.
Spent 3 1/2 hours at the park. Had a great time and got sunburned in the 80F winter weather.5 -

Happy Sunday, Downsizers! We had our PetExpo yesterday - I'm exhausted! Purina donated A TON of cat litter to us - literally - and I have been lifting 50-pound bags into our storage facility. I'm heading back today to finish that up. @Megan_smartiepants1970 here are my steps:
2/11: 17,972
2/12: 16,672
I am pleased to say that I stuck to my eating plan - and did not eat all of the pizza, candy and cookies that were being provided at the expo - I'm really hoping to be in the 150s come weigh-in day...
I hope you are all having a great weekend!!

Nice loss! Unfortunately, events happen all through the year. You have a solid plan and if you stick to it you will be ok. Enjoy your nachos and valentines.mari_moulin wrote: »lindamtuck2018 wrote: »

That’s great to here. My daughter and family finished quarantine yesterday. Only my granddaughter tested positive of the four of them.cormierannie wrote: »it is a very cold day here today. the sun is shining brightly. my daughter says hi. she is at her part time job today. both budgie birds are doing well. i have been for a walk and i feel great. i will be doing some dancing later on this afternoon. i got my grocery shopping done today. have a great day, everyone! take care and stay safe.
Great job on the exercise! When I read your updates it makes me want a budgie bird. I am afraid to with my two cats.Beautyofdreams wrote: »@Megan_smartiepants1970

Great job resisting. I don’t know why people keep insisting when we say know. I have family members who know I am trying to lose weight but try to tempt me all the time.Good evening everyone. Halfway thru the weekend. Keep up the fight.

Put it down as an off day. I am sure you will be back to making great choices today. I am so jealous of your weather. It feels like -19C(-2.2F) right now. Its going to be a cold walk to the pool house and back.Happy Sunday, Downsizers! We had our PetExpo yesterday - I'm exhausted!

Those are some crazy steps! Great job avoiding the foods at the expo. All that lifting would have burned some extra calories. How did you get involved with the pet expo?2 -

Closed my rings again with mini walks. Steps are better than yesterday. I am going to the pool in a few minutes to do exercises that keep my head above water. I will do some water walking, cardio and a leg workout. I am aiming to do at least 45 minutes.4 -

@lindamtuck2018 I'm the president of the board of our local animal shelter - and the PetExpo is one of our big fundraisers each year. We had a great turnout - I was shocked - I wasn't expecting much because of Covid.5
