I surprised myself yesterday by climbing 42 floors and then I did the whole gym workout.  ;D

Great job Paulomi. In the initial stages of stair climbing you had some knee pain. I hope the same is fully resolved now. I'm sure it is reading your posts & numbers.
Very soon I am going to be joining you in climbing. Right now I'm too occupied with work, then there is Diwali (Happy Diwali to all) and also we are quite smitten by our granddaughter who will be here till the 29th. In November I'll be back with my workouts.

8,742 steps yesterday.

Ran a couple errands today. The tree guy offered me a discount if I paid him in cash so off to the bank I went!! Small grocery shopping and post office run. Hopefully that will add to my step count.

Paulomi, you are awesome!!

Thanks everyone! I hope i dont overdo it. When i started, i thought i would not take the lift at all but now that i have the 15000 step and 10 km walk target set, i dont want to overdo so have set a 20 floors target and post that will take a lift if i need to.

16472 steps, 23 floors, 10 kms yesterday.

The weight has not moved yet. I hope i lose the 10 kgs soon!

skb- The knee is now fine. I guess i must have hurt it somehow. I am waiting for you to join in the exercise thread post Diwali. Enjoy with your granddaughter.

Happy Diwali everyone!

6747 steps yesterday.  I didn't even post for a couple of days as I felt so lousy I didn't even care about steps.  I felt much better yesterday and this is the best day I have had for a few days.  I didn't want to push it on my first day "back" and I am not sure about how I will feel today but we will see.

10,346 steps yesterday. I kept walking to different windows to see the progress with the trees. Today he finished but will come back when all the leaves are down and complete the clean up and a few trimming jobs I asked for.

5804 steps yesterday.  Not quite 6K but I was still feeling good, a relative term, and walked OK.  I do tend to tire later in the day.  That is my leg muscles tire.  I'm not sure if trying to walk more helps but I am going to try.

I only made just over 4K yesterday.  I was doing good in the morning but my knee decided to really give me a problem.  So far this morning it seems Ok so we will see how it goes.

Today Boo has once again become a lap cat.  ~ cat ~ Good sign he is recovering from all the noise, but not so good for the step count...

Lap time is more important! You two gotta take advantage of the time available! Sir Waylon was never much of a lap cat, but if I'd go lie down anywhere, he was all over me . . . butting his head into my CPAP mask (no, I don't have a clue . . . maybe he thought I'd grown a snout like his!  ~ cat ~ ), stretched out along my side or camped behind my knees. Sometimes he'd even park on my feet, which was nice because my feet are always cold.
