I am sticking to my plan in eating the target calories provided by MFP. I have taken 11,098 steps. I walked 4.24 miles for exersize. As a consequence, I have burned 471 calories. My average speed and heart rate is not notable. For some reason, I did not perform well today even though I tried. I did manage to get my heart rate up to 158, which is not my goal of above 160. I had to run for a brief period to accomplish this. I am going to have to go back to that hill in order to get good stats. So my target calories turned out to be 2659. I consumed 2,486 calories. So I am 173 calories short. I will eat additinal trail mix to make up the difference before going to bed.

PS On many walks, I try to knock myself out. My fitness score from my watch remained at 28 which is very poor. They use VO2Max which can be reasonably accurate. How depressing. Now for the first time it has moved up to 30! So I am becoming more fit, which I have known for some time now, and the watch is now willing to admit it. I do not know if this is from those walks up that hill, or running for a brief amount of time once for some recent walks. I think it is the hill.
