    Hi guys! Hope all of you are well. Thought I'd keep in better touch while we wintered in Florida but that didn't happen. I didn't gain any weight though! Now back home and still winter so hopefully I'll get back into logging and posting regularly! Cross your fingers!

    Welcome back, DahliaBanker. :flowerforyou: Glad you got to stay in FL for the winter, although I don't think Winter is quite over yet for most of the country this year. In Dallas it went in the 80s yesterday, but supposed to be in the 20s by tomorrow morning. :noway:


    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? yes
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? yes
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? planned my meals & stuck with it (pretty much). Also, although especially challenged at The Cheesecake Factory when they didn't have what I had planned to order after checking their nutritionals on-line, I still made wise choices and didn't get de-railed (as has happened in the past0.
    What would I have done differently? nothing
    What are today's personal goals? stay under in calories & some exercise

    Mon - nope
    Tues - back exercises including sit ups & planks, push-ups, triceps extensions & dips
    Wed - nope
    Thurs - back exercises including sit ups & planks, push-ups, triceps extensions & dips

    Just stopping by to say that I miss you and miss this but my life isn't such that I can do this daily. I am checking in on most weekends and logging daily although a few times I miss the midnight cut off. I am doing a family challenge and just resigned from one of my smaller jobs. It was hard after such a long un-underemployment time to realize I could let go of it. My two main part-time jobs are going well. I get as much exercise as possible. Still fighting weight gain rather than working on weight loss. But I am fighting. So maybe I will be back someday and wish you all well til then.
