You get a REALLY adorable one at 70 miles.

Oh, a ticker is a good idea! (Set to 420,000 because I'm aiming for 14k/day)

Day 5 (5/6): Steps 7,761 // Miles 3.8 // Cal burn 412 // 2hr // Walking + 60min yoga Slow day today. Was really tired after yesterday/last night so just vegged after yoga.

Alright. Final total in for the day. A (really) low day for me but I was tired and just wanted to veg out after yoga. 7,761 steps, 3.8 miles, 412 calories burned.

Went out to Loch Lomond yesterday for a long walk, then went out in Glasgow until 3am. Can't post my fitbit screenshot because everything done from midnight-3 has been logged for today so I had to manually calculate (took a shot when I woke up today and added it to yesterday's total, and I'll deduct that same amount from…

I don't know if it shows as a negative number, or if the number is in red, or if it says "x cals over" instead of "x cals under". I... honestly don't look at mine enough to tell you. It's possible I've never looked it it. It'll be obvious when it's over compared to under, though. In short At goal = on target for MFPs…

Yup, anything under your net goal = more weight lost. 3,500 cals = 1lb so in theory you've got like... a little less than 0.1lb extra loss there. I say "in theory" because nobody is completely absolutely 100% accurate with their food logging. Shoot for the goal. If you miss it doesn't matter unless you're WAY off-base and…

a) Weight loss is not linear. It goes up and down and up and down and up and down but the general trend is still progressively down. So really, try not to freak that "I lost 2lb last week but nothing this week". You might, like me, find it helpful to weigh daily and track fluctations. I find that keeps my…

Eh, I weigh every day to track fluctuations. I'll let you know when it drops below the sudden plummet "165.8" recorded last Thurs. I mean that may have just been a fluke weight... somehow... since I was back up to 168.8 on Mon (weekend away, no weighing, also a random high day since Tues was 167.5) and am now down to 167.…

I lose a LOT more weight in winter than I do in summer, but then I get summer-variant SAD (seasonal depression, commonly associated with winter) which makes it a lot harder for me to stay on track in warmer months. I just generally function better in the cold, and dark. The sun makes me so tired. As to whether you just…

Greek yogurt (or, even better, Icelandic-style yogurt. Skyr is 19g protein for 200g) Eggs Chicken Tuna Salmon Cheese I pretty much get 100-120g protein/day and <150 (normally around 120-130) carbs. I'm not intentionally "low-carb" it just sort of happened that way because increasing your protein sources steals away…

Seems like there was accidentally a second thread made! I'll scooch my butt over here. Day 1 (1/6): Steps 19,124 // Miles 9.42 // Cal burn 1,029 // 2hr 50 // Walking + 45 min 11% incline treadmill walk Day 2 (2/6): Steps 17,035 // Miles 8.36 // Cal burn 925 // 2hr 45 // Walking + 20 min elliptical + upper body weights…

Checking in 17,035 steps 8.36 miles

Day 2 plan - Walk at least 7 miles (not inc. crosstrainer). Done 2.2 already, but got to walk to the gym, then hospital, then home which amounts to another 3.5 so will extend the walk home around the cemetery or something for the extra mile-and-a-half - 20 min crosstrainer - Upper body machine strength: low pull, low row,…

4,534 / 2.2 mi so far today but still gotta walk to the gym, get on the crosstrainer, walk to the hospital, then walk home. Which will be another 3.5ish miles - although the walk home will no doubt be extended to hit my 7.5mi target.

Checking in today with 19,524 steps / 9.61 miles.

Alright I'm back to check in. Day 1 Steps: 19,124 (there will be a few more around the house but ehhhh) Miles: 9.42 Calories: 1,029 Time: 2hr 50min (ish)

She's not underweight at all - her BMI is around 19.5 which is perfectly fine. Low-er end, but not underweight. Don't sweat it. It does sound like she could do with some lifting. Honestly though I've been doing kettlebells for a while and 8kg is still a bit heavy for me (but in my defense I have joint and mobility issues…

Thanks! I just realised I got my days mixed up because the sun is frying my brain. Today is NOT elliptical and strength day. That was yesterday. Today is "45 min uphill walk on the treadmill" day. I'll just er... go edit that now. Did I see you in the June walking challenge as well?
