Only one half hour light workout today.
Half hour is better than nothing! Keep going and you will meet your goals!

Only one half hour light workout today.
I have found after many, many, many years, lol, that giving myself a break when I fall short is helpful to staying on track. Also, just making sure I do something, rather than nothing, even if it's just 15 minutes of walking or yoga or core and mobility work. Then, I remind myself that every day is a new opportunity to make a new decision. Every moment, really.So true, ladies. I'm trying to work on that thing where I just give up after having a day or few days where I don't make my goals.

Much better today.
Anyone else?
I am continuing doing weights every other day and floor exercises and cardiovascular daily. We have reached over 8800 miles on our bike for the cycling season 2020 so far. Unfortunately this week's weather makes cycling out of the question so not sure if we will reach our 9K cycling goal for 2020. We shall see. But I remain dedicated to my indoor workout. Even when I am not in the mood to do it. Which includes today. Off to do the daily workout plus weights (today is a working out with weights day) soon.
Total miles to date this year on the bike.
That is a ton of miles!! I will be at approximately 7500 for the year, although I do run, too.. generally around 400.. I also took of ice skating last winter after not being on the ice for 30 years. You guys must really ride a lot!!!
Oh my goodness, you too! I’m impressed. You run 400 miles and cycle many thousands and ice skate. Girl, you are awesome!
lol.. helps keep me sane! I actually really enjoy all of it.
I agree. It keeps me sane. Even when I’m not keen to start with the whole exercise regime I always feel better for having done it. And I always love cycling.
I only discovered cycling about 5 years ago. Totally changed my life, as running can be hard on you, especially if you run a lot and have some injuries. I never realized that cycling could be so spendy..I always tell my DH he would have been better off if I stuck to jewelry I once read that you can spot a serious cyclist (female) because jewelry is not their thing.. just bikes, but my serious cycling buds say I am the exception to that rule.. I think perhaps you too! Had to take a break from pricescope just to not get to distracted by bling while buying bikes
I recommend the Generac Generator if you can get natural gas where you are moving.
Good luck with your move @TooPatient! XO.
I've blown it. I reached one goal in reducing water usage/cost. Totally blew my goal to not buy anymore jewelry until I pay off my house and car. Was supposed to have lost the 6 pounds I gained but have only lost 3.
Lisa! You’ve lost 3lbs! That’s nothing to sneeze at. Congratulations and don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re doing great. One day at a time and when necessary one hour at a time. And it’s ok to lapse a bit. As long as you get right back on the program. You’re doing great!
And you know we want to see the new bling. Just saying
Thanks Missy. I will show you all my new bling when it arrives. I just let Covid stress get to me and started shopping. It is a nice escape. I am praying for you and your hubby. I am grateful you are so upbeat and positive in this forum. It really makes the forum more enjoyable to have members like you.
I feel like I am almost succumbing to the distraction of bling buying to make myself feel better during the pandemic holiday season! Unfortunately, I already know is that while I love and appreciate beautifully crafted jewelry, it really doesn't make me feel "happy" so much as distract me. Don't get me wrong, I do love much of my stuff, but it is just stuff in the grand scheme of things.. so sad becoming self aware
