How would you log this?
I've been going to nature parks lately to "hike" and I put in in quotes because I'm not sure if it can really be considered hiking or if it's just more like a walk in the woods. I average about 2.5 mph and sometimes the trails include boardwalks and sometimes it's just dirt paths with nothing I would consider a hill but…

How to log SUP?
I'm going to take a SUP class tomorrow and would like to start doing it on a regular but I don't know what to log it as either on MFP or FitBit.

I know I could just make one up on my own, but I…

My first real NSV
Today as I was loading my kids in the car my neighbor asked me if I had lost weight :) He said he almost didn't recognize me. I know he was just being kind but the fact that he noticed I had lost weight at all made me smile. It's only 15 lbs and I'm stuck in between pant sizes right now, so I know all my hard work is…
