  • This check-in is for August 18th – 24th.
  • I went to a concert on Friday night and that’s where most of my active minutes came from. I had a blast, and it was worth it, but my body still feels beat up. My Fitbit is saying I have a Readiness Score of 1 out of 100, so I’ll be resting again today.

  • This check-in is for August 11th – 17th.
  • I completely forgot about the Summer Charity Challenge again so I’m not bothering to continue with it or try to catch up.
  • I probably forgot about the challenge because I’ve been feeling burnt out. I’ve been sleeping a lot, my food choices haven’t been great, and I haven’t been getting much exercise. I think I might be slipping into another depression. I recently bought a book titled, Feral Self-Care by Mandi Em, and I need to read it sooner rather than later.
  • One good note is that I’ve hit my goal weight despite everything. My next goal is another 10 lbs.

  • This check-in is for August 4th – 10th.
  • I got so busy this week that I forgot about the Summer Charity Challenge. I also walked around so much yesterday that I hurt my foot. I think it’s one of the tendons, but regardless, I will be resting today.

  • This check-in is for July 21st – 27th.
  • I had Friday off, and I’ve done next to nothing for the past couple of days other than a few chores around the house, rearranging a couple of my bookshelves, and a whole lot of reading while one of my cats turned me into furniture. It’s been great, but today I’m getting back into my normal routines. Next week’s stats should look much better.

  • This check-in is for July 14th – 20th.
  • I’ve struggled with making healthy food choices that are in line with the Galveston Diet this week, especially when I’m not at home. I’ve been getting far too many carbs and the result is that my weight has bounced back and forth between the same couple of pounds. My consolation is that I am still eating considerably healthier and yummy food most of the time and building good habits.

  • This check-in is for July 7th – 13th.
  • I didn’t lose any weight this week, but I also veered from my diet a bit due to dining out for dinner on Friday with a friend and getting lunch and snacks at the Columbus Book Festival yesterday.
  • Fitbit has made it more difficult for me to tally up my weekly stats by doing away with the dashboard on the website. I now have to go day by day in the app. The frustrating part is that the app only shows my “Zone” minutes and not all active minutes. While my goal of 150 minutes a week is going to stay the same, I’ve changed the name of it.
