Bio Tracking

Since this is the first time I've had a wearable fitness tracker, I want to share some thoughts about it.

Day 1: it's either needing calibration or I take WAY more steps around the apt on a lazy day than I thought! 

Nice to have a 30 second scan option so next time I have a dizzy spell I can see if it's heart related.

Day 2: it's nice to have data to back me up when I say that i slept like shit. 

Ah, it doesn't automatically log my workouts, so I gotta remember to push "walk" when I start the treadmill. Also, no option for strength training... rude!!

Day 3: strength training is called "compound exercise." Seems unnecessary, but ok. 

Major discrepancy between the tracker and the treadmill. I wonder if it have to allow more settings. 1.4 miles vs 2.51 seems excessive 

I DONT WANT CALLS/NOTIFICATIONS ON MY WRIST!!! I want the tracker to track and the phone to phone, how is that hard to understand?!?!

Is there a difference between wearing it inside or outside the wrist? Most seem to wear it outside. Why do I prefer inside? I'll try it outside for a day or 2. See what it says during gym time. 

Day 4: I have a 2 hour block of sleep time missing. I wonder what that's all about. 

Ok, the tracking issue is fixed, tho there is still a discrepancy. 2.1 miles vs 2.56. But heart rate looks WAY more accurate (same workout each day, so I know what it should look like). Tracker has lower heart rate, too, so maybe it's more accurate?? But I'm going with treadmill for distance (cuz I CAN). 

Also, don't have to allow calls to let tracker track, so YAY!!! 

Also, FINALLY logged over 10,000 steps! Lol... what do I win?!?!

Day 5: errands and stuff. Way more steps today during the day. However not as many as when I treadmill. Didn't wanna.

Day 6: we celebrated Valloween cuz... Friday the 13th. Who cares what the bio tracker says! Sleepover with the hubby!! Dinner, then living room fort and SNACKS!! Games and/or movies. Love spending time with my hubby!

Day 7: I've developed an itchy red spot thanks to the band... that's annoying. It has 2 bands, so maybe the cloth one for day wear and plastic for workouts. Sigh. 

Anyway, non-tracker related

As promised, new office set up

Much nicer, less clutter, and got rid of all my extra binders! One issue: the desk bit me! So I had to move it closer to the door. Also I've ordered another lamp for behind me. The lamp will also have shelves for my stuffs 😁

For when I dont want to gym, but I still want to move (and thanks to Lil sis) I got an infinity hoop. It's supposed to be a good full-body workout. We shall see...

The hoop and waist belt. It was on sale. I didn't try this week cuz... I didn't wanna. 

In other news, I paid off my car!!! Fran is mine, all MINE!!! Hehe. So now I don't have to worry as much about the car dying while I still owe $ on it. My plan is to keep saving $ so when it does die ill have a down payment this time. 

Thursday I went to confession at st rose of lima cuz they understand we need the option for confession more often than just at 330 on Saturday. (For real, can more parishes PLEASE offer random weekday after work options??)

Hubbs said he wanted to do valentines this year, so I made him a Valloween basket! 

All the goblin snacks and a dozen milk chocolate roses!!

Jason valentine cuz.... Friday the 13th

ALL THE SNACKS!!! We goblin HARD. 

I made us a slumber party setup. 🥳

We did papa murphys for dinner. 2 pizzas, cheesy bread, and ceaser salad. Then we played super Mario 3 and made it to level 7 before we gave up. Jay decided to show me his Friday the 13th game. It was funny! Jason won. Then we watched predator badlands. It was good. 

One of my favorite games. Hehe.

Even Ace was engrossed in the movie 😁

Saturday we did a lot of relaxing and cuddling and watching movies. I made tomato soup and grilled cheese for lunch. Then we ordered torchys for dinner. I'm giving up margaritas on wed for Lent, and hubbs wanted to have one of my last margs with me. So adorable. 

I colored a LOT.

It was a lovely, chill day.

Even Ace loved the family cuddle time. 

Sunday i went to Mass, then hit the farmers market, and soon I'm having lunch with A when hubbs goes to work. When I get home I'll clean and get ready for the week. I hope all of you are having a good weekend, that you feel loved, and that you got to relax at least a bit. Hugs from me!!
