YOU DID IT!!! We made it to the end of the Thanksgiving Challenge! How did you do? Did you meet the goals you set for yourself?

My goals were:
Goal weight by Thanksgiving 169
Goal Exercise at least 30 min cardio 4 x per week
strength & conditioning at least 3 x per week

I more than made my cardio goal but that's about it! :frown: I think however, just having a goal encourages you to do better than you would have without one. Just having my goals got me that much further towards my ultimate weight and health goals. Woo hoo! Now, that's something to be THANKFUL for!

My wish is for everyone to have a wonderful THANKSGIVING today. Remember this is REAL LIFE so don't beat yourself up about decisions you make today, don't feel guilty - just enjoy the day and get right back to it tomorrow.
+++POSITIVE THOUGHTS+++!!! :flowerforyou:
I'll see you all tomorrow with a new challenge for Christmas!

PS - Thanks for your cheers yesterday! :blushing: Made me smile all day!

    I met my weight goal for today! I've lost 8 pounds so far! I'm excited! My husband and I are planning to brave the cold this afternoon to go on a brisk walk! Looking forward to the Christmas goal!

    Made my goal weight for Thanksgiving even though I've gained 2.5 lbs in last 4 days. Tough week this week. Tired, exhausted, no time to even make dinner, so just eat something quick like frozen pizza thrown in oven, do homework and fall into bed. Haven't been tracking on here because no time. No exercise either.
    So I'm home sick today, shaky, feel nauseous, headache.
    Once this course is finished (another week), then I'll be able to get back on track. At least my weekend will be normal.
    Thanks to everyone for all your support, :heart: think I'll go back to bed now.:sick:

    Oh redalee I'm sorry to hear you feel sick. Glad you made your weight goal though. Everyone congrats to all. I did a little shoveling of snow today. But thats all besides making the Thanksgiving meal. I made my goal, I lost 5 lbs. But not thru strength training. Mostly walking.
