#elliptical

It's not been a great week, this one. I think June I general hasn't been great so far. Anyway, you live, you learn and all that nonsense. Moving on.

I did nothing. In fact, I don't even remember the day at all 🤷🏻‍♂️

Saturday, June 06, 2026

5km is my absolute minimum requirement for an active day, so I guess I did at least that?

This wasn't too bad. I actually hit a max jumps record while skipping rope, which was good to see. This had been the first time since last year that I skipped rope or used the elliptical. I can tell you, my legs took days to recover!

I believe this was the first day in the new shoes. Remember those I got and then the sole came off on the first run!? 🤦🏻‍♂️ I had them repaired and then upgraded with new insoles and extra metal rings for the laces. What do you even call these holes? Eyelets? I think that's the one. Anyway, you can see this was a very slow endeavour. My legs didn't love it after the previous day's rope skipping and elliptical. Whatever. Still, some effort was made.

Another nothing day. I went out for a short walk in the garden, but GPS performance is terrible under the trees, so, yeah... This doesn't even count, so I'm not too fussed about it.

Barely counts as effort. Meh. As I said, it's been a terrible week.

Today wasn't exactly an active day because of exercise. However, I did two hours of... I don't even know what you'd call this. And it's now too late to bother explaining. Then, we worked on our tomato plants and then I worked on the northern side of the garden with the grass trimmer.

Food has been terrible all week, almost. Today's food was very limited. I need to go back to last month's balance, cause this definitely doesn't work now.

I’ve gotten to the arena scene in AotC where the box is covered in vagina motifs

Been struggling with some regain. Working on starting over again and again. Every damn day if I have to.

Wins:

-40ish days of mfp tracking. Some days are meticulous, some days are guesses.

-2 days with 30+ min cardio on elliptical

-continue to try to walk for Pokémon

-made it to the gym last week

-working on less upf, more fruit. Fav fruits this year are strawberries, cantelope, watermelon.

-just generally working on more self-awareness and less bullshit. Trying to actively make wiser decisions and step out of my bs.

-I am still going. Still trying. I have got given up. I have not given in.

-never give up. Your life is worth it. You deserve to be holding your grandbabies at 80. Never never never give up.
