 Reached Active Day 2 of 4 Step Bet Week 3 of 6. I'm shooting though for my first Power day of the week. I finish Phase 2 of the Live Hard Program today and probably have to wait 30 days to start Phase 3 so will change progress photo to computer off by 7PM on my power list. Since the progress photo is a task inside the Live Hard Program.

Got my new Tablet and am writing on it now as time ran out on my computer time so writing here. Got in a slower walk than normal tonight but wanted to play on my tablet. Getting a new case for it probably on Wednesday. Have Zoom set up so can join Team Dark Horse call tomorrow evening. Haven't gotten the Legionnaire Connect app yet but will later.

 Got in Day 2 of 95 1 mile a day and did it today in 17 min 53 sec while watching Chiefs Ravens on CBS. Also got in day 7 of 7 Pliability Short Routines for the week. Really didn't want to get my mile in or my Pliability but did anyways. I'm starting to post to Team Jax on Instagram Chat when I get my mile in for not only Jackie but the entire team to keep me accountable.

Saturday Sept 27, 2025

 I've been lax about getting in my 1 mile a day so starting today for the next 95 days I'll get in a mile a day. Today's mile was done during Collage Game Day on ESPN and I got in an 18 minute mile. I've been getting in a mile when I go to the gym but the other 5 days I haven't been as good so that changed starting today.

 Got an e-mail about 10AM that my Tablet has shipped and now to watch for an estimated delivery date to my local US Cellular store so I know when I'm expected to get a phone call from them so I can go pick it up and start using it that evening. Getting ready to watch Highschool Football on YouTube. I decided since I couldn't remember a few passwords for my Google account, my Meta accounts and my X formerly known as Twitter account I changed them this afternoon so now they are all the same so it's easy to remember when I sign in to my accounts on my new Galaxy Tab A9 Plus once it arrives.

Thursday Sept 25, 2025

 Got in a great walk this evening and stopped at US Cellular and got my Galaxy Tab A9 ordered should have it either tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest. Schedule is official for next week and I have 5 days. Keep thinking I need to request off for Nov 11th for my Eye appointment but going to wait a bit longer and see how much PTO time I have so far I have 5.25 hours of PTO time.

 Went to my local cellphone provider and they suggested I download robokiller to stop the spam calls from coming through and so far it worked. Since I've been a longtime customer, I'm eligible for a tablet so going in tomorrow to get it ordered and take the hotspot off of my line and my mom's line since neither of us use it. As of now unless things change by Friday I've got 5 days and instead of working till close on Sunday I get to open again. Thanks to my awesome coach Jackie I stepped out of my comfort zone in the gym and used 20#DB for most and 25#DB-30#DB for my movements. For the warm up sets I used 15# but for the working sets it was 20# except for the DB pullovers and Shrugs I used 25# for a couple sets of pullovers and first 2 sets of shrugs then used 30# for the last set.

 Got in my workout after dinner while watching the Team Dark Horse Huddle Call. Getting in steps and testing out the fall emojis. Just tested it out on a forum thread and it worked great. Watching night 2 of The Voice Blind Auditions then AGT Finale performances before the winner is chosen tomorrow night. 

Monday Sept 22, 2025

 Watching The Voice Season Premiere Day 1 of the Blind Auditions. Love having Reba and Snoop back in the big red chairs for this season. My strategy for pushing my button on The Voice App is if a coach pushes and I like the artist I'll push my button too. 

Sunday September 21, 2025

Grateful I got home to watch a little bit of the football game. I think Jackie wants us to measure once a month or so. I've weighed in already but need to take my photos in the morning then next week will do all but send Assessment until Tuesday.

Saturday Sept 20, 2025

 Grateful that one of the collage teams I'm rooting for one it's the local team and not one of my childhood friend's oldest son is playing football tonight so rooting for Vandy to win. The Gorillas won today with big plays from a local kid scoring 3 TD's.

 Got lots done at work today being I was on the floor and not on the register the whole time. Got my order this morning and it was waiting when I got home. Tried the PSL in water and it was so good. Eager to try it in my coffee tomorrow morning. Shortly going to get my nighttime cocktail made as the mix is already in the funnel.

 Got in a great gym workout this afternoon but just got in the workout and didn't get my Pliability in until I got home since I was there with 20 somethings instead of the usual members that are there in the morning. Was supposed to be on the floor throwing freight today but was on register instead since the book lady who was supposed to be cashier had a pallet of books to get out. Earlier this evening we had a surprise visit from my cousin and his 2 boys they brought over a mum that we had bought from one of the girls.

 Got in a great workout in the gym this morning and took a couple of videos to post on IG for Jackie to see if maybe we are needing to do a reverse diet to get the scale moving again in the right direction. Well Step Bet was working for a hot minute or should I say almost all day then an hour or so ago it jumped from being right to 17,106 so I'm trying to hit that total to not feel dishonest that my steps weren't right. Monday's got fixed but it is still showing that I had a power day when I didn't.

Tuesday Sept 16, 2025

 Got my walk in this evening after dinner during the Team Dark Horse Huddle Call. After I broke a nail this morning at work I decided just a few minutes ago to cut all of my nails back. Watching the Semi-Finals of AGT now to vote on all of the acts.

Monday Sept 15, 2025

 Decided when I got home from work to join a step bet and of course my steps aren't matching up so have an e-mail out to customer support. Think tomorrow I'll sync my steps as often as I can to get them to be in sync with my watch and the app. Watching 100 years at the Opry and all living opry members are there for the show. So far this show is what Country Music is supposed to be all of the classics.

Learned tonight that Lisa starts over in Joplin full time next week so this was my last Sunday with her. 

Saturday Sept 13, 2025

 Got some great ideas from both Team Jax and also Women Winning live stream chat group both on IG chat for my HHF for Fall 8 week 5% Challenge on MFP. Think I'm going to try out doing a nighttime mind dump where I write in my journal all the thoughts that are in my head before going to bed. Will try this out for Week 2 of the IBC then decide if that's the one I want to keep up for the next 8 weeks once the Fall challenge starts.

Friday Sept 12, 2025

 Got in a great Biceps/Triceps workout after dinner and now trying to watch on my TV Local High school football but it keeps buffering on me so might just give up on watching it on TV and watch it on my computer instead. Well even on my computer the video is still buffering I think it's either the location of the game with the Wi-Fi or just spotty service all around in the area where the game is being played.

Thursday Sept 11, 2025

 Got in my 2,200 step ups this evening after dinner. My nighttime drink mix is ready for a few minutes and my morning drink mix is ready for tomorrow morning. Tomorrow I'll get in a workout after dinner and while my laundry is in the washer.

Wednesday Sept 10, 2025

 Great workout this morning I did Chest/Back workout in the gym and used one of the adjustable bench that can both be an incline bench or a flat bench. Doing both incline work and flat bench work on one bench I didn't have to clean but one bench when I was done. Got in my core work and 1 mile walk as usual and also did Pliability Total Back Short Routine. Tomorrow's 9-11 workout is 20 sets of 110 step ups for a total of 2200 step ups in honor of those who were killed in the attacks on September 11, 2001. These will be done tomorrow evening after dinner and before my shower.

Tuesday September 9, 2025

 Last few days I've been preparing my reds, greens and magnesium ahead of time and thought I'd prep my morning drink powders for tomorrow my Mega Watt, L-Carnitine and Creatine in my gains funnel. My nighttime drink seems to go down into the botte more smoothly being in the funnel for a little bit but will try having everything in my funnel in the morning. It will be faster as well by having it prepped the night before.

 I'm grateful for the hours that I got this week when so many others have way less or no hours at all. I just wish someone at corporate would get their heads out of their butts and realize that stores can't run on the hours that they give us to divide them up between the stocking/truck team and the cashiers.

Sunday September 7th 2025

I'm grateful to be able to be flexible with my weigh ins. Completed my Q3 Challenge this morning and will begin another 8 week challenge I think it's a Q4 challenge but not sure will find out in the morning.

Saturday September 6, 2025

 Getting my steps in for the day and think my healthy habit focus for this practice week for the 5% Seasonal Challenge on MFP will be running the play (hitting calories and protein goals, getting in my steps and drinking 100+OZ of Water.) These are things I need to get back to doing along with getting in a workout no matter how late it is and getting in my pliability short routines in.

Friday September 5, 2025

 Got in a 5K this morning wasn't a PR but that's OK cause I got it done. Weather is perfect tonight but a little rainy for Highschool Football this evening but if the game is delayed in anyway due to weather then I'll watch the Chiefs Chargers game on YouTube after BB Unlocked is over I'll cast the football game to my TV.

Thursday September 4, 2025

 I'm grateful I was able to join the InPHORMED call for a little bit during lunch today. I was planning on getting in a lift tomorrow but was challenged by Jackie to get in a Virtual 5K this weekend so getting that done tomorrow morning in the gym.

Wednesday September 3, 2025

 I'm grateful for the news that I've been promoted yet again this time to a department supervisor so I'm over the grocery/candy/HBA departments. I also got my reorder of reds, greens, micro factor and full-mega today will re-fill my jars of reds and greens tomorrow evening. 

Tuesday September 2, 2025

 I got into the gym for a great legs/core workout this morning. Got to the gym and back with time to spare before the InPHORMed call at noon and tonight's team huddle call. Might have to try and get on Thursday's InPHORMed call even if it's just for 30 minutes or less to check out the announcement that will be made. 

Monday September 1, 2025

 I'm grateful that I was able to get another day this week. I'll still get 2 gym workouts this week.
