    Yesterday M 3/6/17, had in-house training for the entire morning. Due to budget constraints, no refreshments provided except water. Therefore, no temptation! Head cold seems to be a little improved. For the rest of today:
    1) Walk 10,000 steps, including treadmill in evening - Yes treadmill 1.5 miles and Fitbit >11,500 steps :smiley:
    2) Floss...with cold, my streak ended over weekend - Yes :smiley:
    3) Bedtime by 10:30 with TV off - Yes :smile:

    Just for today T 3/7/17 Head cold definitely ending quickly = yay! Will spend entire afternoon doing Observation for work project = lots of sitting today.
    1) Walk 10,000 steps...evening, walk dog if weather cooperates, or treadmill
    2) Evening, wash dishes and either organize tax docs or work on financial analysis (this is time sensitive!)
    3) Floss
    4) Bedtime by 10:30 (getting good at keeping TV off on weekdays)

    1. Log all and keep w/i cal limits
    2. 3 pints water/tea
    3. Start abs challenge ( @azulvioleta6 --I think I found what you are doing--seems simple and "stick-to-able" so I'm going to try it! Thanks for the idea!)
    4. Peacefulness!!!

    Word for March: Still working on Unshakeable !

    It is this...I have a friend who is a fitness trainer who is doing videos on Facebook every day for the challenge.

    Hey bri, are you over or under active? It's hell getting it right!
    When I get pregnant mine goes haywire and then takes a while to settle post pregnancy!

    Glad to hear you're on the right track x


    It's great to meet you Bex!

    I have low thyroid. Not fun, but I'm trying to get it figured out.

    I have been in a dark place lately and have not been doing any of the things I know I should be doing. Why do I sabotage myself? I know I feel better without sugar in my diet, and that lots of water makes me feel better. I know that journaling helps me keep a positive attitude. So, why have I spent the last week eating Girl Scout cookies and shoving crappy food in my mouth...not drinking water or journaling? UGH.

    I have to pull myself together beginning today. So I'm going to keep it simple.

    Hey, have you been peeking at my life.....?
    :smiley:

    Don't give up! You can do it!

    So many people here with colds. I'm so sorry and hope you will all feel better quickly!

    Gee, I hope nobody sneezed on their posts! Then we would all be sick! :wink:

    It's great to see lots of friends from the past AND lots of new friends!

    Have a great day on Wednesday!

    Bri: Thank you for your support! It's been just terrible lately. I'm usually pretty upbeat person so this is really getting old.. :smile:

    @linnea4: "Do not sing out loud at work" This made me laugh out loud at work and almost spit my coffee all over my desk! I have done this when wearing earbuds and listening to music without realizing it. OMG, my voice just sucks too! hahaha!

    I was sitting through a trial on a jury for the last few days, so I have really not been on here or doing well. We are locked in a room and can't go get anything to eat, and they bring us donuts...you can fill in the blanks from there I'm sure! UGH.

    So, tomorrow is a new start. I'm leaving work right now so I will post my goals for tomorrow when I get home.

    Just wanted to pop in and say hello and that I'm thinking of you all and hoping everyone is hanging in there!
