For the next week or so it's going to be about 95F to 102F. I can see a cooling trend coming. We did get a trace of rain yesterday, enough to put the smell of rain in the air and some really bad lightning. Not so much rain though to wet the ground. I think the most steps that I've ever had in a day was over 11K. I went to the zoo.
I do undercount, but don't care that much. These steps are basically the ones where I make a concerted effort to go for a walk or some form of exercise like weed eating, or trimming or whatever. So I'm using the steps in this case to show me how often I am thinking of some exercise.
Makes sense, and probably easier than trying to count every one of them. Exercise is important, exact step count not so much.
So close to the 180's! I hope you get there very soon...
I think my max steps were probably in a job i was doing about 15 years ago. I worked in a hospital in the IT department doing general IT support, the hospital was large with several sites so i did alot of walking. Measuring steps wasn't really a thing back then though so no idea what i did steps wise.
Good for you on the 3 days, and down a little this morning!
Absolutely!
We got our first snow in the mountains yesterday, not here, but I can see it from here. Cooler weather is coming!
Very steady on those steps!
Hot through Friday and then I even see some 80's in the forecast, so maybe this is summer's last hoorah.
Agreed. Sadly i binged yesterday. I was doing fine all day then my brother visited early evening and suggested we order a take out pizza, it was all downhill from there. I need to get back my discipline to resist as last year i wouldn't have agreed to it.
Yes but I'm pretty low on steps today though. It was hot (nothing compared to what you have mind) and because of this i didn't take my dog out in his dog stroller for as long as usual.
Good step day!
We've all been there, or most of us here anyway. I don't think you ever get back to where you were in a big weight loss, you just have to move on and try to manage it as best you can. I went about a year and a half without bingeing when I was doing my big weight loss. Bingeing was however not cured, just put into a kind of suspension.
Heat is heat. It most definitely plays into it. You still did good. Our air quality is bad and pollen is like 11.5 on a scale of 0-12. With cooler temps on the horizon, I'm trying to get back into the swing of things.
Yeh i have to accept i'm not going to lose like i did in those first few months. I got down to 209, if i can get to that by Xmas i'd be very happy. Strange how discipline comes and goes, i can't put my finger on why it seemed so relatively easy in the earlier days of dieting, i'd be a rich man if i could!
Yes you would!
Good for you! For me that is a lot more important than what I weigh, maybe for you also.
Well, it is important that i don't binge, i'm still keeping an eye on my weight. I think posting here almost everyday like i have the past 6 weeks has helped me as i'm acknowledging any weight gain immediately.
