Greetings, Fitness Friends!

How has the week been for you--ups, downs, triumphs, struggles? Please do share in the comments how you've done with reaching for and/or achieving your goals. As always, you are welcome to adjust those goals to what best suits you. There is no judgement here.



Weight: 195.6, down one pound from last week. Yay!

Exercise: I did yoga four times out of four pledged, strength-training three times out of three pledged, and walked every day. I also made sure we got outside to walk twice, once in the evening in a neighborhood with sidewalks and streetlights and another in the early afternoon on Saturday, a nice long ramble by the river.

Eating plan: We had a splurge meal on Saturday evening, but even there, I kept to reasonable portions and felt good about my choices, particularly since we'd gone for a long walk earlier in the day. Otherwise, I'm eating as cleanly as possible, lots of fruits, veggies, and whole foods whenever possible.

Hydration: Yes.

Meditation: Twice out of twice pledged.

Sleep: I was mostly good. I had one weeknight when I was later than I should have been getting to sleep because I didn't want to stop reading my ebook, but otherwise, I was good about keeping to my no-screens bedtime.

The week ahead: More of the same, with hopefully further outdoor opportunities.



I'm wishing for all of us a good week of rest, health, and vitality!

>>I envy you your Costco. Our nearest is an hour and fifteen minutes from here.<<

Ours is about an hour away, but it's in a town we visit often. We live in rural territory so every shopping trip requires a drive -- even our address town is about 10 minutes from home.

>> Last spring we drove over and got a membership because they're building one much closer to us. It's supposed to be opening in late spring of this year. <<

Yay!

>>Fingers crossed that it does--we liked the Costco experience much better than the Sam's Club. once Costco is open here, we'll cancel our Sam's Club membership.<<

That's what we did, compared the two. Each did different things better, but Costco treats employees much better and also has an eatery. They even have a huge walk-in refrigerator for produce.
