It happened. I broke my streak for exercising in the evening and 7K steps a day. I can give all kinds of reasons but I don't feel guilty so why do I need an excuse? It was a choice I made. Since this is a ME-vs-ME challenge, I will start again and hopefully can beat my previous record. Progress not Perfection.

I have been waiting for the heat to break so I could have some of my favorite soups. DUH! Why should I wait? I made a pot of soup this morning and it didn't heat up the house that much. I am excited about having tasty & nutritional soup to eat later today.

So far so good but I have to be careful when I eat. Ate 1/2 apple with 1 Tbsp of PB but had to cut it into tiny pieces and stick it in the side of my mouth. Same with the chicken I ate.

Made a pitcher of decaf tea to drink since water still bothers my tummy. Watch said I got in 7k steps but I know it didn’t count all my steps while working around the house.

Went to class today but it was advanced chair work. Amazes me how sore I am after doing this class. The only thing I don’t like is I can’t use the class for my step class. At least I’m moving again… no headache, tummy issues or tooth pain so I’ll take that as a win
