Good afternoon!!
Glad to see that most everyone made it over here............Jackie is still among the missing~ Hey, Jackie!!!!! Where ya hiding????We miss you!!! Ain't the same 'round these parts without you.
Kristi- sounds like you had a great day, between some great weather, a park, a zoo and not having to make dinner
. Congrats on the 1# loss!!!!! You have worked so hard for this. Congrats!!! As far as WW goes, yes you earn "points" for the day by excercising. There are different levels of excercise- and of course that will help determine the true point value (so will how much you weigh- the heavier you are, the more points for the same duration of activity) but our leader (just as a means of standardizing for conversation) equates one mile of walking- at about 20 minutes of moderate excercise- to one point. So if you are walking at a moderate pace for an hour that is roughly 3 points. (as I said it is a bit more complex than that, but that is a good place to start!).WW recommends 1-2 activity points per day, and increasing that to 3-4 points per day as you approach your goal weight.
Spryng- congrats on the 5# loss!!!!!! I would not worry about one day over in calories.......you are doing great and still, just had a baby! How is Tanner??
Melissa- what a bummer~ another bladder infection???
They are so wickedly uncomfortable too- and as pregnant as you are!
Have you tried drinking cranberry juice as a preventative? I used to be plagued by the dumb things- and found that 6 oz of cranberry juice at bedtime would rid me of an infection- if I caught it early enough. The cranberry juice (low pH) reduces the pH your system- and if you drink it just before bed the low pH sits all night and does the most good then. Big hug to you~ hope you are feeling better soon!!!!!
Got my 3.5 mile, hour long walk in this am....got good and sopping wet too as it started to pour halfway thru!
I don't care, I was going to take a shower anyway and did not have to get wet first today
. My WI was ok- I gained 0.2# (huh???)- but I made the WW stir fried green beans last nite- 1 point per serving- and they are awesome.......but high in salt. So, I figure that it was all the soy sauce used in that recipe. That's ok, I';; get even with that scale next week!
Gotta scoot!!!!!!!!! See ya later and have a great day!
