    No exercise today. I kept contemplating a walk, but it never happened. Since I had a few days to play with, I opted to eat over my calories today. I'm still planning to reach my Green goal for the month.

    May this 2nd half of the month be better for all of us!!!

    Today was Day 1 of my half marathon training. Completed a 4 mile run. It'll go down hill from here. :-)

    Did a little strength training today. Tomorrow is another running day, which I'm looking forward to. That'll give me more calories to eat with. Yea! Ha, ha, ha, ha.

    It was a good day. I did some running, and I guess I'll do a little more tomorrow. Gotta keep pushing.

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    15, 16, 17, 18, 19th :- yes, no, no, no, and NO. 13/26

    I'm away from home, supporting my friend. Her husband had a quadruple bypass a few weeks ago - and now she has fallen and broken her leg. Exercise may be a challenge - and therefore staying green! But I shall try.

    I did a little Jillian Michaels strength/cardio combo today. Trying to stay food focused.

    @k80flec You need to be commended. We all need more friends that are supportive like you. Make as many healthy choices as you can and move when possible. Keep at it!

    It was a rest day today. Not intentionally, but I couldn't get out of that bed for nothing. :)

    I was able to get up and moving today. I completed a 3 mile run.

    @R_Queenie You crack me up! Ha, ha, ha, ha. No one would ever consider me perfect as it relates to exercise. I can be so lazy when it comes to exercise some would consider it pathetic. Ha, ha, ha, ha. I'm trying to stay more focused now because I have to get ready for a mud run in August and a half marathon in October. Poor me. :#

    Crazy cleaning spree. No exercise as asthma is making breathing tricky.

    I thought I was not going to be in the green today (enjoyed some yummy Mediterranean), but a long walk (2 hours to be precise) changed that around. I had calories to spare. :)

    Is everyone taking a break because of the holiday weekend? :) I chose to rest today because I have a 10k in the morning. Woohoo!

    I did not do well with calories but each day could have been worse.
    I did do good at focusing on fruits and veggies, so the days were somewhat of a "win".

    I survived a 10k today...barely. :/

    @R_Queenie You'll get em tomorrow! Good job on fruits and veggies. I'll have to get to the fruit market tomorrow so that I can eat more fruits and veggies this week.

    It was a run day today. I think I'll have another one tomorrow. I feel like a juicy veggie burger and crispy fries. That's on my things to do tomorrow. :)
