    Got up early this morning & went for a swim. My recovery time between laps felt shorter and I didn't feel as out of breath. I did 3 additional laps in 5 fewer minutes than Thursday, so I'm not necessarily swimming any faster but I'm resting less anyway. After work tonight I have a 90 minute massage. Cannot wait.

    Have a great Tuesday!

    Thanks for the encouragement!

    Monday Goals Report:
    1) Eat within cals +/- 150. Nope! Last night I went out with my hubs for a celebratory dinner. I went 472 calories over my goal thanks to a delicious dessert. Honestly, it could have been a lot worse.
    2) Eat veggies with EVERY meal and snack. Trying. Yesterday had veggies with 2 meals and 1 snack.
    3) Log in dinner FIRST so I can work backwards from there. Check! Yes but did not log dessert…lesson learned.
    4) Plan food in ADVANCE. Check! I did my whole day in the morning before I ate anything.
    5) Get my step goal in SEVEN days this week. Monday, check!

    Logging dessert is an important part of pre-logging since they tend to be calorie dense! But it sounds like overall you're doing a pretty good job with your goals. And sometimes you just need to let yourself get the dessert.

    My massage therapist's whole family has the flu so now I am doing Pilates tonight. I do enjoy it. So sad about the massage but I don't want to be in that close of proximity with someone with the flu even if she was feeling good enough to do it.

    Nice night tonight! Ran to trainer workout. New one today. This workout was very much TRX based. A lot of core and arm work! Very hard. Felt good by the time I got home though, so took a brief run with Fells as well. He liked that.

    Laura, swimming and Pilates makes a busy day! Sorry that you had to forego the massage. Better that than getting sick though.

    Sounds like a nice dinner, April. Glad that you enjoyed it. I think that the key with make this new lifestyle work, enjoy and appreciate the special meals, but don't blindly eat. You've got this!
