    Happy Saturday Shape shifters!

    My Saturday morning weigh in: 186.9lbs

    I just got back to work after mat leave and have been eating salty, so I was expecting more bloat. But really not that bad.

    Tomorrow Good willing and weather permitting, I'd like to do my first outdoors run of the year. Weight just melts off when I run, so looking forward to that.

    I hope everyone has a nice weekend.

    Heading home today from Edmonton, we had a great time seeing the sights and hanging out with clients and other vendors.
    We went to do a small part of a hiking trail at Elk Island this morning but it was blocked by Bison. So we drove around to see some more bison and then ate an early lunch watching them graze and lounge around.

    .

    I apologize for my absense. I have been incredibly busy with the end of the school year (I'm a teacher and have 3 kids in school.) As well as planning a wedding. My wedding is June 1 so after that I will be able to be more present here once everything settles down. When I joined a few months ago I didn't think about how busy it was going to get. I also got mixed up on my number last time,.so sorry! I will make sure to keep up with weigh ins at the least from this point forward.

    Good morning Shape Shifters. I wasn't feeling great when I got up, so I took the time to see if I would start to feel worse. I got some waves of naussea so I didn't think I could walk at first, but it got a little better and the weather was nice so I just decided to go. The walk went fine, though there was not much to see. They closed the nicest part of the paved family walk which is a bummer. A pair of eurasian cranes made a nest in that area and they are very sensitive to humans so it totally makes sense. I hope everyone will respect that and leave them alone.
    The rest of the day was very lazy. I wasn't feeling 100% so I just played some games, walked Tinus in the garden and relaxed. Happy Sunday everyone <3

    πŸ™‚ Hey there!

    I'll be doing some grocery shopping today. I want to get some coconut water. Anyone else drink coconut water?

    πŸ₯₯ 🌴 πŸ₯₯🌴πŸ₯₯🌴πŸ₯₯

    I love coconut water because it is a healthier option for hydration vs Gatorade.

    Aids in hydration
    While comparable to sports drinks, which can be loaded with added sugars and flavorings, coconut water is low in calories and carbs. Those electrolytes of potassium, sodium and magnesium play a major role in coconut water’s appeal. β€œBecause of the electrolytes some studies indicate that it can help with hydration specifically related to exercise,” says Smith.

    Steppers:

    FYI, I'll be doing a virtual 5k this next weekend, likely on Saturday unless something in my schedule changes, so if anyone would like to join me, just let me know your planned start time and report in afterward, sharing your time for the 3.1 miles. Would love the company @izzyred9400 @Pupowl @frankwbrown @DaffyGirl88, if any of you are interested! Anyone is welcome to join me...just copying in a few who have done so in the past and who seem to love walking...

    @jessicakrall8 Count me in! What do I need to do? Also pulling in @Krysless2 :)
