    @mkksemail

    Fitbit Active Zone Minutes:

    Thursday: 172

    Wednesday: 12

    Tuesday: 77

    Monday: 9

    Sunday: 7

    You posted a great breakdown yesterday covering Sun-Thur…why are your active minutes here different from what you posted yesterday (Sun=0, Mon=3, Tue=117, Wed=74, Thu=158). We're count activity minutes this week and your breakdown was by task, which seems very accurate, but I'm checking with you in case I'm misunderstanding something. Please let me know. I think I would count the active minutes for Sun/Mon and perhaps Thurs…sometimes when we're in the midst of doing something (on your list), we don't realize how HARD we're working…let me know your thoughts…

    I was so exhausted yesterday from prepping the house for my shower installation and cleaning up afterward that I fell asleep at the end of my strength exercises and forgot to stop my watch…LOL! I'm still a little tired today! UGH!

    Hey Jessica, hugs on the tired. Good job getting ST done anyway!

    Sorry for the confusion, I'd have known which way to report if I was here daily from the beginning. The first list was my logged activity, the second list was the zone minutes my watch picked up, which includes times when I was moving at other than my scheduled / planned exercise periods for the day. Whichever list seems the correct one for the purposes of this week's challenge you can use :). ( posted them back to back, on the same day)

    My gym is having a "Summer Splash" celebration today, and I found this by the outdoor pool this morning, set up prior to the festivities. I chose to stick to swimming and water aerobics, but I'm sure some kiddies enjoyed it. (I did get a free Subway sandwich out of it, though)
