  • I DO miss having the variety of so many options of routes just outside the front door, and also the aerobic push of such a large change in elevation over such a short distance. I am finding the local terrain sooooo unchallenging.
  • April 12: ✅✅✅ The "most like past-normal" I have had since I got back from the UK. Plenty of walking both indoors before the workday started and after supper outside; pre-logged; kept to the plan. Monthly report: ❌❌✅✅❌✅✅❌❌❌❌✅

  • so far so good for pre-logging today (after being very sloppy about logging since getting back home - combined with lower-than-usual daily step totals for the past 10 days)

  • WAAAAA!!!!! It's SNOWING out there right now! I would SOOO much rather have "April rain bringing about May flowers" .... particularly in light as it was 18 C (~65 F ) and brightly sunny with daffodils in full bloom most of my trip in the second half of March.

  • I have just determined that the house I was staying in for the last 2 weeks of March is not only 3 x larger in square footage than my own home (and as I mentioned ... with 10 foot ceilings and correspondingly taller staircase). It also stands about 50 or 60 meters ( nearly 200 feet ?) above the river valley that the town…
  • This works!!! While in the UK, we were in a position to "self-cater" the whole time, and made a point to have only the minimum possible dishes / cutlery / pots in play. So we were "FORCED" for two weeks to wash everything after every meal. Since coming home, I have kept that "I am a person who HAS a tidy kitchen" routine…

  • April 5 report: ❌✅❌ (exercise - 10 mins arm exercises and ... not much else. Mind and body are (still) convinced that I am working 1:30 - 9:30 pm / eating supper ~ 11:30 pm ... / all food tracked / only ~20 over on the cals today, (if the setting allowed my fitbit to throw up a "negative adjustment" between what I…

  • April 4 report: ✅✅✅ (exercise - 10 mins arm exercises and 15 + minutes deliberate walk in the fresh air ... where are all the hills / slopes / stairs?!?! Oh yeah ... a 7 hr plane flight + 1 hr car drive away on the other side of The Pond ... the terrain is sooo FLAT around here in comparison. That's what I get for living…

  • Hi all! April 1 was a loooong day of plane travel (from Winchester UK to London (by car) to Toronto to home (2 planes and a car from the local airport). April 2 as a looooong sleep-in (5 hrs time difference between Winchester and here) plus laundry and that kind of thing. I am back now and would be happy to do Sunday April…

  • March11 report: 🦁🦁🦁 (today's steps made up for yesterday's lack thereof ) rather stressful day at the office yesterday.

  • "You can still use the Like, Awesome, Inspiring and Insightful reactions." Can phone-app people see an "awesome" button ??? I can't on the website interface. (and we STILL need an LOL or other "chuckle indicator" button according to many of you - unless the assumption is that one of the emojis serves that function even if…

  • ironic ... but "having a very limited social calendar / circle of friends" can almost be an advantage .... eating out and attending events was rare even BEFORE the start of Covid-times / Restricted-Bubble rules. In general, weekends are my "inadvertent intermittent fast" days. By sleeping late, there are fewer…
