    I regret that third taco at dinner. I was still under my calories but I need to limit my portions.

    Pleased I've managed to stay on track during my son's wedding here on Gibraltar! Another two days of restaurants and travel, then home and back to normal-ish for a day or two before travelling for work next week. This challenge is really helping me to not fall off the wagon!

    We had Cheryl’s cookies as a welcome back treat ( if you’re from Ohio you know how AMAZING they are) and I didn’t eat mine and wasn’t tempted at all and it was on my desk all day. I sent it home with my student of the day

    Congratulations! Great idea! That must feel sooo good.

    First workout today since mid October. So hard. I about died! But I completed the workout!

    I am still working on my Workout. But it is getting better. I am happy for this challenge, it is helping a lot, because I have decided I will sincerely "Yes" each day for workout.

    My competitive spirit is awakening! I can see this group dwindling from the number of posts every day and I am determined to still be part of the posts by the end of the month! Almost half way there! Swimmingpool tomorrow, before three more challenging days of hotels, restaurant food, heavy drinking colleagues and little opportunity for exercise. This challenge is great, really helping me to keep going!

    Currently meal prepping for the week!

    Making
    Sweet potato burgers
    Lasagna with eggplant and squash “noodles”
    Stir fry with rice noodles and spring rolls
    Cilantro lime rice with quinoa black and pinto beans.

    My parents stopped eating meat before I was born so I never had it..my struggle has been cheese and junk food. I’ve gone dairy free since watching what the health. I can’t believe that carrots and potatoes made some of the best cheese dip I’ve ever had!!!!

    Consistency. Consistency. Consistency. That’s what I’m telling myself. I’m really trying my hardest to make appetizing food and it’s been fun cooking new recipes!!!

    We made it to the first 1/2!!!
