 Today I'm grateful for a great workout this morning in the gym. I bought some pain patches for my back for when it starts to hurt. Ended my 1st Q3 8 Week Challenge yesterday and began another one this morning. Just set a reminder to take final Q3 photos on Sept 7th. Since I'm working days of Thursday I'll do Thursday's Full Body workout on Friday. This time plan on being careful when doing the superset Cossack Squat and Reverse Grip EZ Bar Curl to make sure the EZ Bar doesn't hit my foot again like it did last week. I'm on day 6 and still don't have to charge my Whoop 5 battery is 68% so might charge it in a few days but will see when it turns yellow or red even.

 3 W's for the week. What I Did well? I got in a few great workouts. What I can Improve? Up my speed and get in a mile under 20 minutes. WIN Completed my personal Q3 Challenge and will begin another one tomorrow morning.  I'm grateful for a great week of work so far and a busy one today. Plan as of now is to get into the gym 4 out of 5 days but will see if I get another day either Tuesday or Thursday since I doubt I'll work tomorrow since she would've told me before I left.

 Today I'm grateful I got back on all of the most important groups on MFP. I'm also grateful that after working 5 hours that my foot is still not bruised or broken after Thursday's accident at the gym where the EZ Bar fell off of the bench and hit my foot. I knew that today would be the true test of how my foot would feel after wearing socks and shoes for more than 45 minutes. On days like today at first I wished that my steps goal was only 10K so tonight at church I decided to change my steps goal to 10K, my activity time to 100 and my activity calories to 400. Today we were so busy that I got barely 5K steps at work so working on getting the rest now before bed.

 Checked the schedule app yesterday and I had just 2 days but checked again this afternoon and now I have 4 days that I work this week. Frustrating that I'm still having issues with MFP. If it weren't for the teams that I'm in and the challenges I'd leave the site behind for good. It's been years since I've tracked my food in the app as I use the 1st Phorm app to track my food and exercises. Today I'm grateful that I am working 4 days this coming week instead of just 2 like when I saw the app yesterday.

 Having issues with MFP this afternoon was getting ready to post a I am grateful post on the Spark Friends group which was I'm grateful that nothing is either broken or bruised after a 20# EZ Bar rolled off of the bench I had it sitting on this morning in the gym and landed on my foot. On the MFP front I decided tonight to sign up again under a different e-mail address and changed my username I was thinking about doing that anyway since MAC Fitness is no more and it's now Alpha Fitness.

 Writing early so I can shut my computer down early. Today as I sit here I'm grateful that I got a call to come in and work an extra day so that takes me to over 32hrs this week. I was sitting here when one of the managers called to see if I wanted to work 2PM-10PM tomorrow since we have a truck in the afternoon and need to get the ad stuff ready for Wednesday Morning.
