    Mini Challenge
    Tue Dec 17th
    Tracking: yes
    Calories: yes
    Exercise: no
    Water: 96oz

    My goals are usually the same every week.
    -30 mins of exercise 5 days a week
    -Only have treats on Friday and Saturday
    -Only go over calories on Saturday

    I've already messed up for this week and it's only Tuesday! My 7 year old came home from school on Friday sick and miserable. Yesterday I took her to the Dr and she tested positive for strep and influenza. She seems to be on the mend now but of course the other 3 are starting to show some symptoms. We had a very lazy day today so I'm hoping they don't get as bad as their sister. But exercise was out of the question this morning because I was busy cuddling and refilling drinks. And for some reason sitting around being lazy makes me crave treats more than normal and I gave in to those cravings :s

    @thedestar I hope your little ones feel better quickly! I have the same problem when just sitting around, so I try to stay busy if I can!

    Tracked: yes
    Under: yes
    Exercise: 45 min zumba
    Water 16 oz


    Goals for this week
    - Not give into cravings - I still have gave into the cookies but they were in my calorie budget and I stopped at a couple instead of the whole pack.

    - Track as best as I can - ✓✓

    - At least 3 days of intentional exercise ✓✓

    - Work on handmade Christmas present projects and gift wrap - Began working on projects this afternoon.

    This week is going much better then last.



    @brandi_84 Great job sticking to your goals! And what kind of gifts are you making? I don't have the creative touch when it comes to making gifts for people, always looks like little kid crafts. I guess that will be handy one day when/if I have kids!

    I woke up an hour early today (1am) because the dogs wouldn't stop running around and it turned into cleaning up the kitchen, followed by starting to wrap Christmas gifts... I got two done before I ran out of tape! I don't even know how!

    Hello everyone
    Thank you for the support, but I will be removing myself from the group.
    I just found out I'm expecting 🙂
    Wish I was at a different weight, but Im sure I won't be losing. I read I should aim top maintain.

    @cmhubbard92 Just simple things. Mine also usually look like a little kids craft too but since I have a kid and we work on it together I don't let it bother me too much.
    I found some wood crafts at the craft store that can be painted. We are making a seashell shadow box and painting a coat rack wall mount that looks like birds sitting on a limb.
    A lot of times we either paint or decorate shadow box type picture frames with 3d scrapbook stickers and put in a picture that reflects that theme or put together scrapbooks.
    I have made latchhook pillows before but that can take a lot of time. I think that I may do that again next year.
    We are also painting ornaments.
    It's hard to decide what to give family members who seem to have everything, so I decided it would be more meaningful if it was something we worked on ourselves.
