CAIT--thanks for the webinar info, and good job on your HHs. I hope you can take it easy after the intense work day.

I swam laps today, and I think my stamina is slowly improving! I think my time today would have been a little faster, but I lost my goggles at one point and had to walk around to find them. Sheesh! I stretched, too.

Yesterday I listened to part of one speaker on the online “Kick Sugar Summit” while prepping breakfast. Thurs and Fri were long work days. Yesterday I didn’t get home until after 6 pm.

This am I attended my weekly virtual WW workshop. The topic was “Carbs” and how to include them in a weight loss program and a healthy lifestyle. I liked that they focused on “All carbs are not created equal,” and reflecting on how foods make us feel, not just in the moment, but later, and the next day. It’s also a major topic in the “Kick Sugar Summit.” The “deprivation makes you want more” theory came up, but there’s not consensus on that. My own experience is that the less I eat of added sugar and ultra processed foods, the better I feel, and the less I want to eat them. For me, it’s an addiction response when I eat them, although I’ve learned I can have a small amount occasionally as part of a meal, just not a lot, and not as a snack.

Good Morning!!

I added 6.90 miles Fri-Sun. Some WATP, outdoor walking, and yesterday lots of steps while sitting up for the Church Fall Festival.

Saturday was a day of errands and laundry.

Sunday went to Church and a Aldi run. Made some pumpkin Snickerdoodles for the Church Fall Festival. I went early to help set up and prepare some of the sides for toppings for the hot dogs and sausages. It was pot-luck. Everyone brought a salad, entree, side or desert. It was from 5-8. They had chili cook-off and a bake-off. Music, candy-scramble for the kids, corn-hole, and a tractor that pulls little carts that the kids can ride in. I only stayed til a little after 6 as I was tired.

Cait: Good job on your good days. Enjoy your time with family.

Carol: Good job on your water classes, walking, and stretching. Have fun on your trip.

Waving to all!! Happy Walking!!
