    1. Stay reasonably close to my goals.... Not going more than 500 over would be terrific! - Not entirely sure, (one of a kind restaurant, so couldn't find the nutritional information) but probably not. :laugh:
    2. 6-10 cups of water, depending on the sodium thing - I think I came up short, but again, not sure. They kept the glass full, so I might have drank more than I think!
    3. Start getting ready for my night out IMMEDIATELY when I get home from work. No being distracted by TV or internet! - Sort of.... Had some phone calls that required me to be on the internet a little bit.
    4. Enjoy the evening with my boyfriend :smile: - YES! lol

    2-15-2011 goals
    1. Under on calories, carbs and fat
    2. 6-10 cups of water, depending on sodium
    3. Get to the gym, preferably for both weight training and cardio
    4. Week 2, Day 1 of sit-up challenge (Re-doing Week 2 because I only did one day last week.)
    5. Bed by 10! (This one is becoming more important.... Had to take a half day instead of a full day because I could NOT get up this morning.)

    Tuesday:
    1. Water – Yes! Perfect 10!
    2. Calories – Yes!
    3. Walk, shred, & something else – Yes,
    4. Remain patient and cheerful all day at work - Mostly

    Morning Everyone!

    Foodwise yesterday had only one blip (the infamous banoffee pie) brought on by having lunch too early but rather then closing the day over my calorie limit I went on the stationary bike I have at home and burnt off the extra calories. I watched the biggest loser USA while I did it (I really am that cool), it was a bit like having Jillian and Bob training me!

    So today I want to keep on the good work:

    Wednesday:

    1. Water
    2. Calories
    3. Walk, Shred, & Something else
    4. Laundry! I’m down to the weird clothes.

    Hope you’re all having a lovely day!

    Not being able to exercise, I just cant seem to control myself. I have the "why bother" attitude when I should be the opposite. I should be watching what I eat even more!!! I have no idea why my brain is such hogwash sometimes!!! urgh....


    Lets try this today.

    1.) WATER period.
    2.) NO chocolates
    3.) stay in cals
    4.) don't miss chiro
    5.) take the kids to church.

    1. Laundry it must get done!!
    2. water
    3. log everything
    4. clean living room

    Well I did pretty well yesterday. I didn't get the living room completely clean but I did get most of the trash and stuff out of it that had piled up (mostly newspapers and magazines).

    Part of the reason I didn't finish is that I found out one of my fave cousins has passed away this last sunday.:sad: :sad: :sad: She was in her 70s and had cancer but the last time I had seen her she was in such good spirits and up and moving around. It came as such a shock to me. She was like another grandmother to me. I have really good memories though and have been thinking about things alot since I found out last night. I wish I could've made it for the funeral but she lived in PA and I just can't afford to drive out there right now:cry: I'm just glad to know that she is now with her husband and I'm sure he was very happy to see her.

    My goals for today
    1. water
    2. log everything
    3. try to keep a positive attitude today.

    Hope you all Have a good day!

    Hey everyone!

    I know said I was coming back hardcore. And I kind of have on the diet front but I've been super busy getting ready for THON which started today!! So ... I thought I'd say if anyone is interested you can watch it live here!
    http://thon.org/Gallery/thon_weekend

    I would strongly recommend watching between 12 and 4 Sunday especially. But tomorrow night is the pep rally which will be good too! Have a good weekend everyone!
