All green except for active minutes yesterday and came 1hr short of achieving my steps per hour goal yesterday. Almost all green today but might miss active minutes again and have already achieved my steps per hour goal. Plan on getting into the gym all 5 days this week 2 days will be after 4PM and after 2PM one day then the other days will be in the morning around 9AM or so. Tomorrow's workout plan is Legs/Abs and 10 min warm up on elliptical and 5 min to finish up on elliptical. Plan on Thursday morning going to US Cellular to see if they can help me set up my voice mail or at least access it with a default passcode.

Writing early again today not sure if I'll go all green today but will try and get all but maybe active minutes and will try to achieve my steps per hour goal but the last 3hrs no promises as I'm on the main register and we should be busy. Still don't know my work schedule for next week to plan my workout time of day and number of days. Hoping still for 5 days but will take 4 days if that's what my schedule will allow. I won one workweek challenge and finished second in the other. In a weekend challenge and I'm in third place so need to step it up before work today.

All green and achieved my steps per hour goal today but missed miles yesterday. Got in a great Cardio/Abs workout today.  Currently I'm in first place in one workweek challenge and in second on the other with 3-5hrs left. Won't know my work schedule for next week until sometime tomorrow to plan my workout number of days and time of day.  Hoping for 5 days but will take 4 days if the schedule only allows. Bought a second wireless charging pad so I don't have to use any cords at home but will have 1 cord ready for travel or whatever.

Currently in first place in both of my workweek hustle challenges with 1 day left on both. Tomorrow's workout plan is Cardio(20 min incline treadmill walk and 15 min stair master)/4 abs exercises.  Had labs done yesterday and everything came back good but iron is a little low so going to get some over the counter iron and start taking it.

Tomorrow's workout plan is 15 min warm up on elliptical then legs/chest and finish with 15 min on stair master(if it's free). In the morning need to have fasting blood work since it's been a while before breakfast and my workout. Saw a couple of cute phone cases that I might go back and get the next time I need something at GNC.

All green yesterday and achieved my steps per hour goal. All green today and achieved my steps per hour goal today. Got in a great Legs/Abs and a total of 15 min on the elliptical. Still loving my new phone and still getting used to the switch from Apple to Android. Need to change the rest time on the app from 30 sec to 60 sec for tomorrow's workout. Just changed that so now I'm ready for tomorrow's workout.

9/23/18

Might not go all green might miss active minutes but will achieve my steps per hour goal. Bought a wireless charging pad and not sure think my phone was on 88% when I got home and put my phone on it and in about an hour or less than it was fully charged. Have to take my pop socket thingy off of it but that's OK I can put it back on before bed then remove it when I get home to use my charging pad. Plan for tomorrow is work till 3PM then legs/abs and 10 min warm up on elliptical and 5 min to finish up on elliptical after my lift.

9/22/18

Almost green but might miss active minutes today. Achieved my steps per hour goal today by not leaving for church until a few minutes after 5. Plan is to get into the gym all 5 days this week and in the late afternoon Monday, mornings Tues-Thurs and then early afternoon on Friday.  Been thinking about getting the wireless charger that plugs into the wall then I can just sit my phone on it and not plug it in since I got my new phone and decided to get one tomorrow.  Put my hair in a neat bun for church tonight with headband but will do a messy bun for work tomorrow with a headband. Think now I have all of my apps back that I want except for my app from the doctor and getting that now as I almost forgot about it. As soon as I go almost all green then I'll charge my Fit Bit Alta HR to full charge.

Might not go all green today but going to try and get 13K steps. Didn't achieve my steps per hour goal today missed 3hrs sitting in the car driving to get my new cell phone and driving back and in the store waiting to get my phone set up. I upgraded from the iPhone 7 which died on me this morning to an android Samsung Galaxy S8. Getting everything setup and all of the apps I need put on there. Tested out my Air pods and they work with my Galaxy so I don't need to buy a new pair of Bluetooth earphones for my workouts next week. Thank goodness I had my workouts wrote out in a notebook I learned that after the gym app was down a couple weeks ago. Had an OK workout today without my music. Won't know until sometime tomorrow my work schedule for next week to plan the time of day and number of days I can get into the gym.

Went ahead and preordered the Fit Bit Charge 3 this morning.  For the first time in about 3yrs I had a Subway sandwich tonight for dinner. Haven't eaten one since before I decided to quit TOPS since we ate there every Monday night after meeting and I just got tired of eating there every week for 3yrs.

9/19/18

All green and achieved my steps per hour goal today.

I'm 17.9# from reaching my goal need to focus on my eating and also getting my water in. On SparkPeople I changed my user name from royalsgurl to macratdoll to explain the name to the Spark People blog readers MAC is the name of the gym I go to and doll refers to the ladies and rat refers to those that are there a lot working out so I'm a macratdoll.

Almost all green just not sure I'll get active minutes today but will achieve my steps per hour goal. I'm leading the weekend challenge with 6hrs 29min left to go. Tomorrow's workout plan is Legs/Abs and 10 min on ellie to warm up and 5 min ellie to finish up. After my workout going to head to GNC for a case of Bang Georgia Peach tea since the tea is the only flavor of Bang I can drink as it doesn't have carbonated water. Will drop it off at MAC to put in the fridge there so I don't have to remember it but on days like yesterday will take one home with me and drink at work the next day.  Next week I'm in 2 workweek hustle challenges again but this is the first weekend warrior challenge I've been a part of for sometime. Almost have my gallon of water in for today will make my CLA drink in about an hour or so.

All green and achieved my steps per hour goal today. Got in a great Legs/Chest and 15 min elliptical to warm up and 15 min stair master. Tomorrow's plan is Back/Triceps and 20 min incline treadmill walk. My new weight lifting belt is going to work great as I used it this morning. My trainer said as long as I was within 30 calories either over or under 1700 it's OK with her. My legs are still sore from Monday's workout and I did another leg day today. I'm in 2 workweek challenges on my fit bit and am leading one and in second on the other one. After I bought a perfect bun helper I decided to try a bun without it and used just a ponytail holder and scrunchie which work just as well. Might look at getting some small barrettes or use a headband to keep the loose hairs in check.

All green and achieved my steps per hour goal today. Got my new stuff on the app this morning but the server was down when I got ready to workout so my trainer wrote a legs day workout for me to do today.

Switched sites but still going to write here starting tonight. All green but didn't achieve my steps per hour goal today missed the last hour while sitting at a family b-day party. My grandma turned 90 today and we all surprised her with cake and ice cream. Got a couple of new workouts to get me through this week and both look pretty good. Switched trainers earlier this year and have noticed a difference in how I feel and the workouts.  Found a great Gym Rat workout plus did 15 min on the elliptical to finish up as I found the workout on the gym app that was already preloaded.
