Silmarilliane

I had an amazing time thanks! A little hungover and sleepy this morning but for good times so that's ok 😅

Ok doing yesterday and today as I'm now away for a singing weekend! Office yesterday and chorus after - had an exam (that I passed, woo but stress!) so I had some Turkish delight that were emotionally required. Today was a bit of a faff - drove to the Midlands but the place I booked didn't have parking, and hadn't been cleaned and I had to join some work calls, so after trekking there with bags, I trekked back to the conference centre to finish work. Thankfully they refunded me and a friend is joining tomorrow so I have their bed for the night, and have booked a night in this hotel for tomorrow, and crashing in ANOTHER person's room the last night(!) Had some comfort food but then got a sensible dinner instead of pub food. Yesterday: 🇹🇷 5pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🛏️ 10pts Today: 🍜 0pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts ➰ 5pts 🍑 5pts💡 0pts Total: 950pts

Officey yester so minimal exercise, though I did get home from quartetting at 9:30pm which meant fitting in physio and getting to bed on time! Yesterday: 🥗 10pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts 🛏️ 10pts Total: 890pts OK, I only need 22pts per day to pass...

and this is not to be sniffed at! I've got so much better at declining food I don't need and freezing things for later but Past Me was the worst for it...

Ugh, hope this stabilises enough for you to get what you want done 🤞

Ah ok yeah - I guess there are different types of ill, and there are definitely times I require eg chocolate for emotional reasons. Glad you're feeling better, and hope the swim goes well if you decided you were well enough to go. Also very fair to think about how achievable your targets were/are - learning for next time is still a worthwhile exercise

Booo, lost all the things as my laptop froze mid typing... Wfh yester, ran, lunch cycle, physio, kettlebells, weights and extra walking to/from pilates. Got into bed on time but spent a bunch of time on my phone catching up with correspondence until 11pm so no time to read. Need to work out a way to improve this really, I don't get enough reading in. Basically much exercisies to get much pointies. Yesterday: 🥗 10pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚲 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts 🫖 5pts 🏋️‍♀️ 5pts 🛏️ 10pts Total: 850pts OK, feeling a little better about total points for this challenge...

Yes these! Thanks And thank you!

Yeah this is really tough - I've got a lot better at buying a sandwich/wrap to have for dinner in advance of things so I don't buy a meal where we're going (also helps with calories!)

If you're ill I'd say restricting foods isn't going to get you better any quicker. Plus the same for swimming, maybe something lighter and less chlorinated?!

Catchup time... Friday was office so run, walk (nice long walk with a prev colleague), and to see a friend's show far away - had pizza dinner and got home late. Saturday I had family brunch for my mum's birthday, and then a date later on. I probably didn't actually go over calories, but I didn't count them either so I'm going to 5pt it. Yester I was just going to the Priscilla Party in the late arvo, so did some extra exercise in the morning and then 100 squats while brushing my teeth. Friday: 🍕 0pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚶‍♀️ 5pts 🌞 5pts 💡 0pts Saturday: 🍳 5pts 🚶‍♀️ 5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts 🫖 5pts 💡 5pts Yesterday: 🥗 10pts 🚲 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts ➰ 5pts 🍑 5pts 🛏️ 10pts Total: 795pts On track-ish, but know I'm in the office tomorrow/Weds and then driving for singing Thu (and there until Sunday and straight back for niece's birthday...) That means I only really have today/tomorrow/Wed for max calorie points, and maybe only today as 'getting in bed on time' points... I've already done a cycle and my physio today, and will do weights, so might chuck some kettlebells on my next call, and I'll be walking to pilates later. All feels a bit frantic OK, now to catch up on the forums!

The assistance band I got for the chin ups is also useful for doing some sort of standing shoulder flies (basically pulling the band directly upwards with both hands to shoulder height, with elbows out/up - feel free to let me know the real name!) Cycled to the shop and did a walk after work. Met a friend for dinner/drinks so def over calories for that meal, but sensible in the day. Got home just before 10:30pm but obv took me a while to get ready for bed, though light was off for 11pm. Yesterday:🍔 0pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚲 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts ➰ 5pts 🛏️ 5pts Total: 700pts

Have a lovely holiday

Boopeedoo... wfh yester and quartetting after which meant late home. Calories counted though, and did some (ineffective) poi while waiting for quartet peoples. Yesterday: 🥗 10pts 🏃‍♀️ 5pts 🚶‍♀️5pts 🌞 5pts 🦵 5pts 🤹‍♀️ 5pts 💡 0pts Total: 665pts So, I'll need to get an average of 30pts a day to pass... Looks like I'll be chonking in the exercise at any available moment...

Side point on goal #3, tl;dr I really need to stop trying to track this bcuz stressing me out
