    What would I have done differently? I am getting hungry after work even though I have lunch there - looking for a healthy way to address this.
    What is today's personal goals? 1 hour exercise 6 days a week, water, healthy food, start limiting sugar even more,

    Sun- 2.5 hours of packing and cleaning for my son who moved into a new apartment

    I FOUND you! I've posted a few days but none of them were there and it showed that nobody had logged for 3 days. I just happened to notice the thing at the bottom that said "see more posts" or something like that. THAT explains it! lol So where did my posts go if not here either? Doesn't matter..........just curious!

    Happy Fall!!! Here is the new post. Let me know if you want me to add anything.

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1103001-daily-check-in-fall-2013

    The summer post was ok for me I am still down but need to kick it back in gear and stop making excuses for everything. I need to think like a healthy (skinny) person. Would they have had the burrito, rellenos and margarita's last night after not working out all day - I think not :-) It was delicious but it is time to start behaving and have a treat occasionally.

    We had a great turn out during the summer - over 500 post. Great job ladies!!! Keep up the great work!

    Thanks for your support! :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:
