    Better than I thought I would do for the week- given that I had to clean all of Saturday and there were 2 family events in the evenings that stopped me being able to exercise

    Lets see if I can break 5000 next week. Glad to have met goal both times :)

    Didn't lose any weight this week, but I'm hoping it is just water retention (pretty sure for various womenly reasons LOL!) Plus I'm a little sore considering all of the mad exercising I've been doing

    Good job everyone!
