    Were you active for at least 20 minutes? YES. 50 minutes on the exercise bike. My goal was 35, but I was reading a book and wanted to finish the chapter. ;)

    Hi everyone!

    I've been rather off-plan the past few days so hoping joining you will help me stick to it a little better...

    Today wasn't good goal wise again.
    1. I logged everything except water as usual.
    2. Over my calorie goal, by like 150.
    3. Didn't workout today. My day didn't go how I had planned.

    More conscience of the food I am eating. Co-workers are also chiming in on their food options and using MFP! :)

    Really really need to work harder. Just really hard for me to get motivated with the cold weather. I wake up every morning and think I m going to this exercise or that exercise. so far I have done no exercise at all. My water drinking is almost zero and I have been going over calories sometimes by a lot sometimes just a little.
    It has taken me days to find this almost gave up.

    Reflecting on January 13:
    Track everything?: Yes - knowing that I'd be coming back to report here was the extra push I needed to log my trail mix blowout last night.

    Eat under calories?: No, ate at about maintenance due to having a ridiculous amount of trail mix, but I'd rather be honest with myself than pretend it didn't happen.

    Active?: Yes, worked out 80 minutes - 10.3 mile bike ride, 2 miles walk

    Good job being honest, lalepepper! That's what we're going for in this thread. Being honest with where we are is the first step in motivating ourselves to make changes. :)

    I am proud of all of you!! You guys are doing amazing, and should be proud of yourselves for your hard work and your honesty. (*) (*)
