I might have lost a pound this week. However, despite what the scale says, because of all the walking and exercise, I look as though I’ve lost more weight. It’s just shifting around. This makes me happy.
I am firmly in ketosis. It was more difficult to get there this time than it has been in the past, not completely sure why. I plan on staying in ketosis at least until Wednesday, though we’ll see. We’re going out for sushi on Wednesday. I’ll try to be careful and stay in ketosis, but it will be okay if I go out for a day. Then I have to get right back in, particularly if I’m interested in losing weight.
I did more than 30 minutes of continual exercise five days last week. I also count this as a win. Because of the new Fitbit, I am moving a lot more. Went to the gym three times. Would have been four, but the weather one night was just crap. Temperature was hovering at 33 and it was raining/sleeting. I did not need to drive to the gym in weather like that.
The Fitbit also has a relaxation app. Two or five minutes of guided breathing. I’ve been doing that every night.
I’m doing more editing than writing, though I’ll start a new short story this morning. Fingers crossed I’ll be able to finish it today. There’s a blog post on writing coming in the next day or so.
I’ve had a serious disconnect between all the items on my board and what I’m actually doing. I’m getting lots done, just very little of it is from my board. I need to fix that, to get my to do list and my board resynchronized. I’ve been doing the most important things for the most part, just not getting credit for them on the board, and this makes me cross.
I continue to post things over on Medium. I try to always keep these posts to be less than 560 words. (That is the magic cut off for Facebook, whether the post reads “see more” or “Continue Reading.”) But sometimes I have a lot more to say. Those posts are likely to show up on Medium now.
And I guess that’s it for the morning. I’m kind of excited about some other stuff going on in my life at this time, but I won’t be able to share any detail until August.
What exciting new things are going on in your world? What have you done recently that you’re proud of?
