    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? 72 very active minutes, 4.85 miles and 10,699 steps. I forgot to put the Fitbit back on after I showered so I probably made 5 miles and 11,000 steps. My walks are at the cemetery where my mom is. One walk around is 1 mile. I walk around 3 times. The walk there and back is about a mile. The walks are putting me in a bit of a funk. It's taken me a while just to be able to spend time there. It will be 5 months next week that my mom passed away. It's raining today so I will head to the Y and try to get out of this funk!

    WOW! Great job Goldk on 11,000+ steps yesterday! I'm still plugging away ... actually weight watchers has been a total waste of money so far, haven't been going to meetings or using their website for tracking. I went back to my nutritionist and am trying to get back to eating lower carb. I need to start trying to do something with weight watchers though - I paid ahead for 6 months! yikes! at least it was a deal.

    Well girls. I'm struggling but I'm logging anyway (that's a good sign!). I've got to get into meal planning instead of
    eating whatever and then logging! Got to get back into taking the time to do this right and do the check in. I take it you'll be starting a new summer check in so I can start fresh! :smile:

    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? kept my calories in check
    What would I have done differently? a longer walk. I walked around some shops with my daughter but not even close to the 10,000.
    What is today's personal goals? check in , track food and walk. I picked a bad week to set this high goal...LOL. My daughter's dance recital is Saturday - rehearsal last night, dress rehearsal Thursday, appointment today. I will do my best. Just glad I am doing well on the food front!!!

    So - At dance rehearsal I noticed one of my daughter's friends not looking that great - pastie white, not good. When I got home I ask her if her friend eats lunch at school. She told me that her friend doesn't eat at school and she already said something to her about it. (I told her that I was proud of her for saying something.) Last week I noticed her pants were pretty big on her too. I know the mother - I've been bringing this girl home from school for the past couple of months. What should I do? Confront the girl? Confront her mother? Nothing? They are 13 years old.

    Goal for this week - 70,000 steps (changed it from daily to weekly)
