THURSDAY
Daily Stretches I didn't do nearly enough for everything else I did that day, though... HAHAHA!
Daily Walks
EOD - Superman In small increments... Did it with kids and a dog, which turned it into a laugh fest...
Running Away From My Problems
Light Parkour Training
Quadrupedal relays (#6 turned it into a racing game... I lost... HAHAHA!)
Dead hangs (again, #6 turned it into a game... a contest for who can hang on the longest... which I lost...)
Light cardio (#6 felt it was too easy and decided at this point to just practice flips off the playground equipment... Talk about leaving me in the dust!)
I also did a few squats and march steps at a random point throughout the day...
MENU
Breakfast - Clementine and 2 strawberry mini muffins, compliments of #1
Lunch - Shrimp and chocolate banana cake, compliments of #1 and #3
Snack - Moose Tracks ice cream and two pieces of crème brûlée chocolates, compliments of #1 and one of my flatmates
Dinner - Caldo Verde!

I'm gonna make this brief... Tuesday and Wednesday were sick days... I did the bare minimum of stretches and one very brief walk each day. As for my diet... I drank lots of herbal tea, broth, and some EmergenC.

Yesterday was pretty much the same... It's a pain to work myself back up from zero days of fitness, so I'm doing bare minimum with walks and stretches. Inflammatory responses are back, though. Time for the Author of a Thousand Fails to go even more back to basics... I'm gonna focus on my meals and wake-sleep schedule this coming week.
36 Consecutive days of fitness
75.5lbs (yes, that's how bad the inflammation is)

I still am not focusing on my workouts much this week, but I do have some good news that I wish to announce... I've finally breached that 270lb barrier and am now just a little over 265lbs.
I will probably not have much to say until after the weekend, but just wanted to take a moment to celebrate a new chapter in my weight loss journey... Finally in the 260s! WHOOT!

So, about my walking and running... I don't know how far I go, only that I'm doing laps around a small parking lot... So, I'm measuring distance in laps... Though, if I were to guess, the parking lot's very small, and I would say each lap is only about 1/16 of a mile, if that...
