and for week two...

start exercising for at least 30 minutes each day, and get 10,000 steps daily.

i track my steps and fitness with a garmin vivofit watch. i guess it’s similar to a fit bit but it doesn’t have all of the same capabilities. since my current watch is getting pretty old, i’m hoping to get a fit bit alta hr for my birthday!

how i did...

sunday

steps : 3,314

minutes of exercise : 0

so...i guess i told myself that i was going to start on monday? when i exercise, sunday’s are my stretch / rest days anyways, so it’s okay that i didn’t do anything today :)

monday

steps : 8,338

minutes of exercise : 40

i biked for 40 minutes! it was on a super hilly 1 mile loop. the map my run app says i went 6.55 miles at an average pace of 9.8 mph. it says i burnt 142 calories but i swear it was more that that lol.

tuesday

steps : 7,853

minutes of exercise : 40?

im not sure the exact amount of time i got. activities i did were pacing around the house (lol please don’t judge me), ping pong, and kickball. i paced for around 10 minutes, played ping pong for another 10, then kickball for around 20. i also went to the pool! i didn’t swim though, i just took a nap and read :)

wednesday

steps : 7,920

minutes of exercise : 10?

yep, not much exercise again today. it was my first day back at school and i was completely drained of energy. i did have to go up and down the stairs constantly at school, though. and i paced around my house again. i usually pace while i do stuff on my phone (it’s weird ik)

thursday

steps : 9,665

minutes of exercise : 30

i didn’t do much, just walked to the park and around a few trails.

friday

steps : 5,246

minutes of exercise : 0

yeah, oof. school is really draining me.

saturday

steps : 3,010

minutes of exercise : 0

oops. i kinda had a busy day with babysitting, a sleepover, family visiting, etc. that’s still not an excuse though :/

sunday

steps : 12,090

minutes of exercise : 45

i went on a walk to the dogs to walk, walked the dogs, then walked back lol. so, as the only day i actually met my goal, i feel pretty good!

my thoughts overall

honestly, school is draining everything out of me. i literally come home, eat junk food, then nap. it’s all i can manage to do. maybe once i get used to school i’ll start eating healthier and exercising daily again. i’m really upset that i couldn’t reach this week’s goal, but i feel like i needed a week to do whatever i wanted as well? i guess next week is a fresh start.

next week...start getting ahead on my school assignments!

no images used are mine, i didn’t even make the collage. i did however, add the wreath, board, and text, but none of them are mine.
