    Everyone's doing great! This 7 day slim down is so much harder when doing heavy lifting! I've been adding foods in for sure, but I've kept it all lean and clean! I've found myself CRAVING protein! I sat down with a spoon and jar of natural peanut butter the other day haha. I ate a couple small dollops and felt better :D I did the same with a jar of almond butter yesterday afternoon. Still doing good and the no candy, pop and extra snacking! Im really taking the time to think about what I'm eating. I also have my hubby doing 7DSD with me, and I'm so proud of him!! He's doing great - hungry, but great lol. We're half way done!!

    I am off to the gym tonight. I had well needed time with DH last night. I need to get in the habit of working out in the morning. Workingout in the winter is the hardest thing. Happy to report that this morning scale reported BF% as 34.0 down from 36 a number of weeks ago. I have made many changes to cause this. :)

    I have noodle arms. Spent 2 hours in the pool and I'm feeling it. I've worked hard at the rec for two days. I think tomorrow will just be an easy walk for me.

    Challenge #1 @MissionEnforcer
    I chose option #3
    I did this tues (5m)-wed (5m) -thurs (5m) on my treadmill.
    It has flipped between extremely cold, or heavy rain so far this week. Glad there was an indoor option.

    I am giving up salty snacks this week. Chips especially. It's been tough.

    Challenge 3. I left chips/ popcorn behind. These were my guilty pleasure and reward in the evening! I now realize it was really something I don't miss when not having just bad habits!!

    Challenge #1 @MissionEnforcer
    I chose option 3
    I tried to do it outdoors but got rained out after just 1 mile. I did the rest indoors using my stair stepper.

    BTW I am enjoying my almond coconut milt in my coffee. I have been at this stuck weight for a while so I am ready to get over this hump this weekend. Also just had a friend let me know they are closing on their lake home (seller) I jumped at helping her pack and move. I am having visions of boxes and getting closer to that goal of 700
