I'm hoping I won't need a "day off", I'd like to maintain my current level of weight loss. If you do alter your calorie "bidget" would you mention it?0

Today was rough! I was too busy this to exercise in the a.m. like I usually do, and I was very tempted to skip it altogether ... BUT this challenge helped keep me focused on my goals! So I'm happy to say I pushed myself to exercise this evening. :-)
