I check in here every Friday, but my fitness week is Monday – Sunday. So my check-ins are always about a week behind.
Last Week (January 21 – January 27, 2019):
Well… it wasn’t such a great week for me last week. I mean, I did okay with my food, even though the calories were over for the week, it wasn’t by a lot each day. But I did not move much – I think this is the fewest steps I’ve done in a week in years. Between the cold, cold and icy roads at the beginning of the week, to rainy days later in the week, I stayed inside. But instead of making sure I still exercised… I was lazy. Oh well. I’ll do better next week!
My Movement:
Monday: no exercise, 4,315 steps/day; calories over
Tuesday: no exercise, 4,563 steps/day; calories under
Wednesday: no exercise, 5,344 steps/day; calories over
Thursday: 60 minutes yoga, 4,829 steps/day; calories over
Friday: 43 minutes walking, 10,180/day; calories over
Saturday: 30 minutes walking, 8,989 steps/day; calories over
Sunday: no exercise, 4,428 steps/day; calories over
