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.2 -

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.0 -

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.2 -
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.1 -

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.1 -
