    Today we had our family Christmas "make-up". So that meant one really big meal for the day. I loaded up on veggies and then enjoyed a sensible amount of meat and dessert.

    No "official" exercise today, but if I had my HRM with me, I would have tracked the calories I burned while dancing today. I worked up a nice little sweat. :D

    Just a little strength training today. Feeling good though.

    Bruceapple - If you start strong, you are sure to finish strong. Go you!
    Scherzie - I'm sure you're getting stronger and stronger as the days go by. When is your event? I know it's coming up soon.

    I spent the day working on my scrapbooks with friends. Not the best eating environment, but it's not as bad as it could have been.

    I did a 1 mile walk yesterday, and walked for a little bit on the treadmill today.

    Everyone seems to be doing well for the new year. Keep it up!!

    Melissa - Happy Belated Birthday!!!!

    Laughter Girl - thanks for the birthday wishes.

    I am really too far under today, but I have a runny nose and headache (no fever so not flu, thank God) and it's no fun eating with a tissue in your hand. I am near the top of my maintenance range after a lack of exercise last week, so it won't hurt. I made it to yoga at the gym today. Good grief at the new people. I predicted to an employee that half will be gone by Groundhog Day, 60% by Valentine's and 75% by St. Patrick's Day. We'll see how good I am at predicting the failure rate for New Year's Resolutions. LOL.

    Laughter_Girl- Marathon (my first) is January 25th!! Just did the last "long" run and am now going to taper until the big day. Then training really begins for the 70.3 Ironman Florida (again, a first for me).
    Melissa- Happy Belated Birthday!! I'll just bet that you are pretty close on your predictions ;)

    I finally made it to the gym. I did feel like I was impersonating an elderly frail lady. :s

    Better food day today. Made it to yoga, which I jokingly call "Abs with Kelley." Her three favorite words may be "find your plank". One of these days, I am going to say "my plank isn't lost," but there were a ton of new people in class so I kept it to myself tonight.

    Strength training today. I really want to incorporate more strength and less cardio in my schedule. I want to build some real muscles. I don't want to end up flabby. :D

    Everyone seems to be doing so well. Keep it up!

    Attended a Total Body Conditioning class tonight. It was primarily strength training with quick burst of cardio. I'm sure to feel it in the morning. :)

    Scherzie - Your workout regimen is amazing. How do you make time to fit it in?

    @Melissa - LOL @ your smart *kitten* humor. I would have appreciated it...then again, I would have been likely to SAY it had I been there. :wink:

    @laughter_girl I work 4 10's, So try to do my "heavier" days on Sunday and Tuesdays as I work primarily Wed-Sat. I have a couple of co-workers that I run with @5:30am (before work). It's a crazy schedule but I just cannot make myself exercise after work! How was the conditioning class? I need something like that to tone up :#

    Today was a much needed rest day for me.

    R_Queenie - You've got a great streak going. Keep it up!
    Scherzie - You impress me more and more each day! You workout everyday and you work 10 hour days - WOW. The fact that you can workout so hard before work is incredible. I'm too lazy to get out of bed. :D The class was really good, which is why I'm resting today. Ha, ha, ha. Seriously, I only have about 15 more lbs. to lose, and I want to do a little more strength training so that I can continue toning. Cardio is just so much more entertaining than strength training.
    Bruce - Hope you enjoyed the swim!
