Week 9. Been drifting since the last time I noted I've been drifting. Still down about 12 pounds from start, but have to get back on track. Exercising 30 minutes X 4 this week, walking the line on my eating.

As far as I know it doesn't have a weekly option (for the watch display. I can see it in Garmin Connect app that way.). Those numbers wouldn't have been right anyway for the week.
It reset to 0 today when I put it on so we'll see what happens. It may just be the product of a 3 year old watch needing replacing.
Edit...I checked Garmin Connect app too. It showed 53k daily steps yesterday too. Just funky weird.

I think the most I’ve ever logged in a day was 20-21k, so at 53k you were non stop.

Re: 2016 Walking, Exercise, Weight Loss Member Challenge Thread
It didn't happen. It was some sort of glitch.
I also only wear the watch (usually) as I'm going to walk or run. So getting 6000-7500 or so would be a really good day because that's just my exercise. 53k is unlikely to have even been a week's worth.

Re: 2016 Walking, Exercise, Weight Loss Member Challenge Thread
I hit over 31k one day at Disney as well. For my money, a long day at Disney is about as good of exercise as this old man is going to get.
The worst part was, toward mid-evening we rode some ride that got you wet. My shorts ended up getting wet, and rather than drying off completely, well, let's just say I earned the rest of those steps and paid for it the remainder of the time we were in Orlando.

My Tuesday weigh in had me at 228.4. Typically when I start my winter routine, I’m down 10lbs by the end of March. I’m only down 5lbs now and not sure I’ll make the other 5 by 3/31.
Whoever mentioned the thing about getting older and pounds coming off slower was right. I am dieting(counting calories), and doing cardio... I’m a bit behind on exercise and being at :40min, 5 days/wk. but jeez, it’s going slow this year.
I’m still going to shoot for 210 by 5/1

Tuesday weigh in albeit a little later than usual came in at 227 even.
Up to :25min/2.01 mi five days a week. The distance changes slightly depending on pace but the five day average came to 2.01. Gonna hang here for another week then bump up to :30/five days/wk.

Re: 2016 Walking, Exercise, Weight Loss Member Challenge Thread
FWIW, the Garmin has been fine this week. Of course, the weather has been bad, so I have not been able to get out and run, and I only wear it sporadically. Like yesterday was 880 steps or so. I have a treadmill and weights in the garage, but I just don't enjoy that. I guess I need to do like Andy said about Aunt Bea's pickles, "learn to love 'em."

I’m back on the IR list and sidelined from exercise. Give the ear a day or two to mend so I don’t get it all sweaty, and the BP up causing additional swelling/pain.

Back at it 2.07 mi/:25 min.
Tuesday weigh in 226 lb, looks like a pound a week. Thought I’d be at 220 by 4/1. Didn’t happen, too many set backs.. on IR 3 times since 2/1.

I'm going to try something soon. Maybe.
Headed to the allergist Thursday, which I have needed to do for years. That's a definite. Just part of getting health in order.
Then I am going to go see a podiatrist about my feet...the arch, bad nails when I run that turn in, pronation, etc.
Then I'm going to an athletic shoe store and be fitted for real running shoes that fit my feet.
That's the pre-plan.
After all of that, I'm going to try to match the Commissioner. At least in 50 day segments.
Greg Sankey has run, outdoors, for 350 days in a row, at least 35 minutes each day and often more. It's 3.5-4 miles minimum, often 5 miles, with occasional runs up to 9 miles.
He's a runner. I'm a guy who pretends to run. There's a difference. But if he can run for 35 or more minutes a day every day, so can I.
I'd like to try it in a 50 day stretch.
It may be a pipe dream. But I'd like to try it.

Re: 2016 Walking, Exercise, Weight Loss Member Challenge Thread
It's a lot better for your knees, ankles, etc. Right now, I have been blessed with no issues related to those items, so I'm going to continue, as I find it more tedious to do it indoors than suffering outdoor elements. You are more dedicated than I am.
I have to get a referral to see a podiatrist, so I have an annual physical scheduled Monday. This will be my 2nd in less than 5 years, so I'm really doing well. Now that I think of it, it's probably not a bad idea to get before I embark on this journey anyway.

I did mis-speak, :30/:35 a day 5 days/week, not every day. Still, I do feel feel better over all after getting back in shape.
My latest brick wall was the 2nd covid shot reaction (see covid thread). I hope to start back exercising on Sunday. After a week lay off, my plan is to go :20/ 5 days and then add :05 each week to get back to :30/:35

It’s not my usual weigh in day, but it is Easter which marks the end of my sweets fast. I did make it to 220.2.
After enjoying a few Easter bunny treats I’m going back to the sweets fast until May.
Laid off the machine all last week after battling the vaccine reactions, and started back tonight for a 1.6mi :20min session on the machine... it hurt.

Rode my bike 11 miles yesterday. I have got to stop going to the breweries along the way. Had a net gain of about 300 calories.
