    Exercise: two walks, about 10 min. each. But lots of NEAT with clothes shopping and chores.

    Food: Overnight oats for brekky, half an uncrustable for lunch and then . . .
    (speaking of advertising, @mtaratoot :) : today was Starbucks' BOGO special, so the kids and I got caramel crunch frappes and later, summer dragonfruit lemonades. My sugar grams were over the top. Probably need to make SB a once a month treat; definitely not twice in one day!
    Supper was a Green Goddess bag salad from Walmart (220 cals) and three stuffed mushrooms (100 calories). I'm coming in at 2000 calories for the day.

    I was not advertising. I was trying to give members a place to interact because the newsfeed and all of the social stuff that helps us members is going away. Just trying to give members a safe place to land and something similar to a newsfeed. Does not benefit me it benefits all of us trying to stay healthy.

    Advertising might not be the right word, but it is a bit of a hijack of the thread. I won't clog it up any further with any additional comments on it. Good luck.

    So fancy, @ninerbuff !

    My dinner will be leftover venison backstrap (yep, hubs is a bow hunter) and potato. Lunch was McDonald's, splitting entrees with my kids, and breakfast, more overnight oats with blueberries.

    Today's exercise: walking the dog, then 30 min. of laps, treading water, and aqua jogging at the local pool.

    Weights: Upper Body - Monday

    Bench Press 10x3x78% 1RM
    Cable Row 4x10
    Machine Decline Press 3x10
    Machine High Row 4x10
    Seated Arnold Press 3x10

    Bonus work: Over the weekend spent a good 16 hours doing yard maintenance: lopping branches off trees, lugging branches away, pulling weeds, mowing/trimming lawn, filling a huge trailer-full of junk (old couches, mirror, shelves, etc). Estimate I burned some 2,500 calories, certainly didn't eat enough to offset the extra burn.

    New Plan: this thread is for accountability and since I'm not struggling to eat healthy meals, I'm going to start only posting the sugary treats I eat. THIS is my area of struggle. For example:
    Today I "rewarded" myself for a visit to the oncology center (which I dread) with an ice cream sundae (800 calories), a Dr. Pepper at lunch (150 cal), and finally 3 fun size Snickers bars this evening (240 cal). Yikes. Too much sugar means not enough protein in the day.

    Workout: short walk in the am; pm included 60 min. in the pool treading water / jogging / short bursts of swimming and some moving of furniture, maybe 10 min. worth.

    Cardio: Yard Maintenance

    I haven't been posting here the work I've been doing, but finally completed a week-long effort to fix my entire yard, from lopping limbs off trees to pulling/bagging weeds, mowing/trimming the lawn, hauling assorted junk off my property onto a trailer bound for the dump, and more. Estimate a few thousand calories burned during all of this, vow to never let it get this bad again.
