#FitReaders Check-In

Published on by Rachelle
  • This check-in is for December 29th – January 4th.
  • In addition to New Year’s Day, I also had the rest of the week off from work. I took that time to begin another, but more aggressive round of decluttering. While I was getting rid of items I no longer wanted, I realized that the way my office was arranged wasn’t working for me. I thought it was due to all of the clutter, and while that was part of the problem, it wasn’t the entire problem. Once I rearranged a couple of pieces of furniture, the space is much more functional and feels more open.
  • Since decluttering and rearranging/reorganizing took up a lot of my time, I didn’t do much else other than update my fitness goals and decide to get back on the Galveston diet.

  • This check-in is for December 15th – 28th.
  • I did a lot of walking while I was visiting family in Arizona! I also did a lot of relaxing and enjoying sweets and foods I no longer eat on a regular basis.
  • Because I was traveling and didn’t have access to my computer, this post is for the past 2 weeks of activity. It’s also my last FitReaders post of the year, and I’ll be back in 2025 with updated goals! Until then, have a happy New Year!

  • This check-in is for December 8th – 14th.
  • I’m fully enjoying the holiday season now and am out of my funk! I got all of my Christmas shopping done, found a few more decorations to put up around the house, and I’ve been watching Christmas movies while drinking hot chocolate and keeping a fire crackling a long in the fireplace.

  • This check-in is for December 1st – 7th.
  • I’ve been trying to get into the holiday spirit, but, thanks to my back, I’m struggling. I finally got the Christmas decorations up yesterday, and I’m reading a couple of Christmas-themed books, but nothing is helping me get out of this funk I’m in.

  • This check-in is for November 24th – 30th.

  • This check-in is for November 10th – 16th.
  • I’m sick AGAIN, but this time it seems to be a stomach bug. Whatever it is, I need to be over it well before Thanksgiving because I’m not sticking to the BRAT diet during the holidays.

  • This check-in is for November 3rd – 9th.
  • I was out of town this weekend and couldn’t post anything (the hotel’s wi-fi wasn’t good at all). I had a blast at the Ironton Wizard Festival and then went to the Moth Man Museum in Point Pleasant, WV before finally returning home yesterday afternoon. It was a fantastic and fun trip, but I was exhausted when I got home.
  • I’ve passed the 700-mile marker for the Charity Challenge! While I won’t be reaching 1k miles this year, I’ll still be able to hit my goal of 850 miles with a bit of work.

  • This check-in is for October 20th – 26th.
  • I mostly read yesterday since it was Dewey’s 24-Hour #Readathon, but I also went with my boyfriend and a friend who is visiting on a night-time cemetery tour. I went on the same tour by myself last year and loved it, and it was just as good this year.
  • I got the results of my labs, and while some of the numbers weren’t great, they were better than last year, so I’m taking that as a win.
