    Just a small cardio workout yesterday. Spent the day cleaning the house. We have been focusing on the outside and the garden that I neglected the inside. It felt great to get it done. I love a clean house. Going to the doctor today for this sinus thing I have. I can't hear at all out of one ear, and now I have pink eye in both eyes! Guess it's time for some meds.

    Would You Rather?

    Shop at a grocery store or shop at a Farmer's Market

    I would rather shop at a Farmer's Market ... We just got a Sprout's here and I am in love with that store :)

    I've been going to farmers' markets and smaller independent grocers and fruit markets lately since I've been boycotting one of the larger grocery chains her in Canada. There are some things I need from larger grocery stores or Costco, but I like the smaller markets in general.

    If I wasn't trying to lose weight I would say donuts. I have never met a donut I didn't like! But since I AM trying to lose weight I will go with coffee :)

    A lot of seated exercise yesterday - I found a few workouts from Paul Eugene's youtube channel that I found fun and felt like I was really working out. Went to the doctor yesterday, sinus and ear infection, not pink eye (it's just a side effect of the infections). I'm on antibiotics and decongestants. Hoping it clears soon - would love to be able to hear again!

    It was super hot and humid here yesterday so knew I wouldn’t get my steps in outside. Figured I’d run some errands and go to the gym. Left with some returns and my water but forgot my headphones and gym bag :| Ended up doing a few laps around the inside of the air conditioned mall. Was 200 steps short so sped walked around my house before I got into bed. Made it work!

    What is everyone's traditions for the 4th of July?

    We usually swim in our pool ...but since I am injured I won't be in the pool ... We watch fireworks but I won't be out there ..it is going to be 111 here in California ...so I will be watching fireworks on T.V. in my nice cool house ...We will be bbq-ing pork ribs ...I usually host a 4th of July party every year but I am not doing it this year

    I hope everyone has a nice 4h of July

    First week with the new Fitbit and back to getting my steps in. I think I would have been down even further except we hosted the 4th of July celebration with extended family so there was a lot of 'celebrating' although I did take it pretty easy. We're leaving in a few hours for Branson, MO to do some boating at the lake, amusement park fun and maybe a show or two. I have low expectations for healthy food options but will try to make good choices. At least I should get lots of steps in over the extended weekend.

    Quiet 4th of July -Got in two seated cardio workouts - counted one as my walk workout, the other as my cardio workout. Got my step goal completed - seated of course. Feeling a little better today - at least I could hear my hearing aid start up. To be honest, I was kind of scared that the ear infection will lead to more hearing loss. I am very hard of hearing already, it is really hard to live in a world and only hear half of what is said. The constant "what was that", is really frustrating for both me and others. People just don't get hearing loss - they roll their eyes like I am an annoyance when I ask them to repeat. Many times I just pretend I hear so I don't have to see it. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer - I'll end on a positive note - The fact that I could hear the hearing aid start up to day was reassuring.

    If you could get yourself anything, what would you get?

    I would buy myself a brand new Yukon XL in cranberry color
