    8/15 weight: 216.8

    Here's where things stand thus far:

    Goals are:
    Take my daily vitamins: Missed 3 days and toe cramps are back.
    Up my H2O to 100 oz/day: Yes, glug, glug.
    Discipline to combat eating triggers: Have done well, but discovered I have an issue with having only one glass of wine after having gone to a party last night. Food discipline was great, but drank too much wine. So am adding "No alcohol" to my goals.
    Carbs <20g: Macros have been great with carbs below 20g
    Exercise 30 min walking 30 min 5x/wk: Yuppers! This next week, I'm planning to step it up by adding a short morning walk since the weather is beginning to change with cooler temps in the a.m.
    Find a new social activity: I have a planned new social activity that starts in January...so what to do in the meantime. There is a card club that meets at the senior center (you only have to be 55 to attend the senior center events), so I am planning to go this week to try it out.

    Exercise 4 days a week :)
    Carbs below 50 (I usually go below 30 but I'm having some weird hormone fluctuations so I might experiment with a bit higher here and there) :)
    Try to get up a little earlier... :( Nope
    Take supplements! I keep forgetting them! Total fail... :(
