    This weekend was pretty bad foodwise. It was a birthday weekend for my son and the menu was hard to fight off entirely. I did get to the gym Saturday tho.


    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? No
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Did not set any, didn't do anything yesterday really.
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Nothing really
    What would I have done differently? Should've gotten in a workout.
    What is today's personal goals? Get in a GOOD workout at the gym, to walk on all breaks today (I get two plus a lunch break) AND stay under 1200 calories--period. No eating back what I exercise as I figure that's OK to do today to help make up for my weekend. :/
    Did you try something new recently (food, exercise, etc...)? Prepped a vegetable Fritatta to cook for dinner tonight. We will see how that goes, 320 claories and 25 grams of protein.
    Mood today? OK so far. I am at work :)

    Sun - No work out. Walked the mall a little bit, leisurely.

    My mom was in the hospital for a few days, but went home on Saturday. She is better, but still unable to get up much or walk without a walker as she hasn't lost the dizziness completely - but it is improved enough that she isn't getting violently ill every time she has to move. They ruled out most serious things since a cat scan and MRI didn't show anything - so they think just a very severe case of vertigo. So it's a relief that it isn't anything more serious, but not very pleasant for her!

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? not at all
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? no
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? hmmm, I did take a short walk instead of doing nothing
    What would I have done differently? had more control over my eating
    What is today's personal goals? Keep logging, already did an hour of step
    Mood today? tired

    Mon - Step class - 60 min. DONE
    Tues -step or body pump
    Wed -walk
    Thurs- walk
    Fri -step class - 60 min.
