    Struggles or successes of your week: I think I did really well getting my eating back on track and ignoring all the leftover Christmas treats in my office. I did not get my exercise plan in place like I had intended. Goal now is to get that piece of things going ASAP, and get my 10,000 steps in a day.

    I'm just glad I didn't gain! Not a great week eating/workout wise, and I even forgot about the challenge til just this morning (which is why my weight is from Wed). On the other hand, I landed a dream job that will have me outside moving and lifting several hours a day!!!
