Got up nice and early this morning and had the most beautiful winter morning walk with my girl watching the sun come up as we went along! And a bonus rainbow 🌈

We saw Maggie's friend Boo (an older collie, I think he's like 9 but they love playing together, he barks for her from the other end of the field when he sees us 🥹) We also saw so many deer! They weren't too fazed by us so we got to stand and watch them from a distance before they toodled away

Then had my dress fitting which was sooo lovely and relaxed. When I went to my sister in law's fitting with her, she had gone to this fancy boutique where they made a big fuss over her and it was lovely and felt really special, but I would have hated that myself. So I went to a local seamstress instead, she had this tiny top floor studio in the middle of town that I would never have known even existed and she just said hello, told me to go get my dress on and she put her pins in then told me to take it off again. We chatted away all the time but it was such a relief to not be fussed around. She didn't ask anything about the wedding, about Matt, nothing lol literally just put her pins in, I asked if she would sew me some cups in bc ya girl needs some kind of cleavage on her wedding day and she just laughed and said that would be no problem. I am sooo happy with her tbh. I was only there for 15 minutes! Got the bus halfway home and walked the rest as I had to stop off at the pharmacy, it was nice to be out in the sunshine again. Got home and did a load of housework, took all the Christmas decorations down and put them away in the loft, and put up a couple of pictures I've been meaning to get round to. Had a snack then went upstairs to work out and got a really solid upper body session done! It felt great

"Abbye “Pudgy” Stockton (1917-2006). Born in Santa Monica, Abbye was known as “Pudgy” growing up because she was in fact, pudgy.
Steadily packing on the pounds while working as a telephone operator in the late 1930s, she eventually decided that enough was enough and did something almost unprecedented: Abbye started lifting weights. She soon became a familiar face at Santa Monica’s famed Muscle Beach ...
At 5’1″ and 115, Abbye wasn’t just strong, she was built. Abbye organized the first sanctioned weightlifting meets for women, and had personal PRs that included a 100 lb press, 105lb snatch, and a 135 lb clean & jerk…in 1947.
Yet, she exuded a sense of delicate femininity that ruled the times. After World War II, She opened a gym for women on Sunset Boulevard and began writing the column “Barbelles” for Strength and Health magazine, the world’s influential fitness magazine at the time."

Been struggling with consistency but not giving up by any means; even if I’m not doing it as often or being as focused/goal-oriented, I still get to the gym (or do wtv) because exercising is just a part of who I am now! 💪🏼

Well, it's a very long time since I did such an early workout!
Surprise, surprise, my blood sugars went the entirely opposite way. Been low literally ALL night. What the actual??
Anyhooo.....
I gave up after waking up fully at 3.30 and lying there for an hour before deciding I may as well get my weight training out of the way.
Didn't go heavy. The hydrants actually felt the heaviest.
Then I made myself a decaff (waiting til breakfast for that REAL coffee) and I'm sitting by candlelight in my huge dressing gown before waking the boss up.
It won't be a late one tonight!

Hello! Decided to come back to tumblr and hold myself accountable in my training!
Last week did 8 miles, 6 miles, 8 miles, 6 miles, rest, 6 miles, 12 miles... Also been doing some strength training.
This week did 8 miles, then another 6 miles today. Today was interval training, so I had to work for it, not sure you can tell...
Anyway, it's good to be back and I can't wait to catch up on how everyone is doing!

So, I'm kind of just hanging on my the skin of my teeth. Not losing weight, though feeling a little less lethargic lately. I have been working out and trying to add more walking, but my toe issue continues to be a problem with this.
Anyway, I thought I'd try adding more strength training to my life after reading the book "Outlive" which talks a lot about strength allowing us to maintain our health and independence as we age.
I have joined a gym nearby and they have weight machines. I haven't been in there to really explore them in depth yet, but I assume the normal range of upper and lower body machines are available.
TL;DR:
Here is my question for anyone who does strength training: What is the best way to keep track of your progress? How do you track your reps and the weight lifted? What app do you use? Or do you just write it down? Don't tell me you keep it in your brain, cos my brain would never remember from day to day.
Any suggestions on how to keep track of your weight lifting routines and track progress is appreciated.
