    Good evening, friends. I'm afraid I'm going to have to bow out of this challenge. Life is just getting too hard right now. I'm not stopping my fitness goals, but I'm just unable to commit to this group. I appreciate all your kind words and thoughts and I wish you all the very best success this month!
    Blessings,
    Bonnie :heart:
    We will miss you. Come back soon. You & your friend will continue to be in our thoughts & prayers.

    Hello! I couldn’t get on the boards yesterday at all, kept getting an error.

    Today should be a fun and festive day. We are taking 250 kids to see a musical at the high school and this evening I have tickets for a local bus tour of lights.

    I’ll have to work hard to hit my steps but I’ll
    Hop on my stationary bike tonight if I don’t hit my goal.

    Have a good one!
    Sounds like a great day Meg! Good plan!

    Check in for 12/19

    Stay under my calorie goal (2210) ✔ 1714

    Get 5,000 steps a day✔ 7,384

    No eating out ✔

    Exercise for at least 20 minutes a day. ✔ 20 minute exercise bike

    No caffeine after 1pm (my dr's suggestion for sleep issues) ✔

    I’m setting my calories for a one-pound loss while I try to get a handle on a hungry stretch I seem to be going through. At worst I know how high I can go and still lose something. If I don’t use them yay I’ll lose my usual amount.

    For day three of Trimstones challenge I did 10 walking jacks, because I can't (medical reasons) jump. For those curious about what a walking jack is
