WEEKLY HEALTHY LIVING CHECK-IN SEPTEMBER 15TH, 2018

**This past week has gone well...yet another "fast" week that has "Zipped" by~ Feeling accomplished on some things, un-accomplished in some other minor areas.... I continued to stay on track, and feel that I am doing really awesome with Food, Water and Activity... My sleep wasn't too bad this past week either.. Either hitting my mark half of the week, or just being a "few" moments off (based on my FITBIT)...

**The weather here continues to be really beautiful... Sunny, with humid temps (even with fall season approaching next week, and the Tropical storm brewing on the Eastern coast~ But we are pretty far "in-land" that we might get a day or two of "rain" here and there. Swimming is officially over for the season.. I am basically continuing with walking Twice daily (3 times a week mornings & evenings), Group Fitness, and Teaching my 3 classes/a week (Just mixing things up and keeping some variety).... I've also been continuing doing a few afternoon walks a week as well with my puppy at his favorite place (The Lake)~ Its so peaceful and calm just sitting by the lake, taking in the beauty of it all and relaxing~

**Things around here are starting to look like "Fall" ... I'm starting to see some leaves fade and fall here and there, and a few trees here and there are starting to change a little color as well. Just little subtle changes, but none-the-less, its just a reminder of how "Summer" days are fastly fading~ ....I LOVE the Fall... BUT.. I LOVE "Summer-Time" just a little bit more! I Feel my "Happiest" there emotionally & mentally....~ All of the Fall Festivals are already getting started and under-way around here as of this weekend.~

**Today is my weekly rest day,(or rather supposed to be) I take advantage of it when I feel I need it, but today, we're having the Bi-monthly local POUND class at the warehouse, so my intent of course is to be there to "POUND IT OUT AND MAKE SOME NOISE"~ (and also get some activity in for the day as well).... I'm getting so much closer to some of the goals I have for myself. And don't want to go back to where I was starting to head this time last year, and where I was when this year started~ I have NO other plans for the day... It might be a day where I just "Crash" after Pound class, and simply do nothing! lol....

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND EVERYONE~

Keeping up with exercise. Did slip a little with healthy eating for a few days, but I am back on track. Weakness for ice cream if its around. Weather was wet and cold so swimming was out for the week. Keeping weight in check. Swimming was a great exercise that burns a lot calories. I do miss swimming. Weather will be better this week, so hopefully will get some swimming, but the season is coming to an end. Have to increase the pace with walking to burn more calories and add some light weightlifting. Enjoy your weekend.
