    Good morning everyone! I'm baaacccckkkk (hopefully it will last this time).

    I have a couple weeks of a moderate work load before finals (may go MIA again there) so I should be around. I was super happy to step on the scale today and notice that I haven't gained any weight! But haven't lost any either. This weekend was Relay for Life so today my whole body hurts since I was a Captain of the event and had to be there all weekend to make sure everything ran smoothly. So I'll be taking it easy today. Goals are:

    1. Water (at least 6 cups). Still need to work my way back up.
    2. Catch up in my novel reading for class.
    3. Clean my room and do laundry. (All my clothes are caked in mud from the weekend. It rained all day Friday. You should have seen all the cars getting stuck when they tried to park. Oy. What a mess it was).
    4. Lots of vitamin C and rest so I don't get sick from being in the rain and cold all weekend.

    I plan on getting to the gym tomorrow if my body feels a little better! Have a good day everyone! I've missed you all!

    Sorry I've been MIA recently. It's been a weird couple of days..... Logging has gone by the wayside due to 1) not having a whole lot of time to be on MFP 2) eating a bunch of stuff for which I didn't have a clue of brands/nutritional info. That said, I think it's seriously time to get back on the wagon here! (When I weighed in yesterday, I'd gained about 2 pounds. :ohwell: )

    1. At least 6 cups of water
    2. Under on calories, carbs and fats

    A Day by Day Challenge is exactly what I need! My name is Jessica. I'm a mother of three (18,16 and 5) and I live in Southern Italy. The thing I HATE most is sweating, so I guess that's the first thing I've gotta get done, I've gotta sweat!

    My goals for tomorrow: 1. Complete Zumba's Cardio Party
    2. Drink at least 2 liters of water
    3. Come back and post my results, my positive results 'cuz failure is NOT an option:wink:

    Goals for today:
    1. Healthy choices at the pub - Reasonably, not the salad but pretty good
    2. Don't over do it on the walk- Yup
    3. Enjoy today as much as possible. – Definite yes

    Yesterday was fantastic and getting out tin sunshine did wonders. Sadly though I got on the scales for the first time in a while and I had gained weight, it’s not a surprise, I’ve been eating really badly for the past half week. Now its time to get back on with it.

    1. Under on calories, no excuses.- I must be under everyday this week.
    2. Walk at lunch and run after work
    3. Water
    4. Stop being distracted by thoughts of exotic places and get on with some work!

    Have a great day!
    See you later

    4/10 goals:
    1. finish cleaning the house- done!
    2. use the wii to get my exercise in- done!
    3. relax with the family in my clean house-done!

    since I spent my day relaxing with family, I forgot to post my goals! So my goals for today are:

    1. keep house clean
    2. burn off some calories
    3. not obsess over the scale, I think I might even hide it
    4. sign up for the Superman Run (4 mile run in Metropolis, Illinois during the Superman Celebration Week) so I have no excuses to not train for it.


    cbteco, does the green tea really work? I love green tea so if it will give me a boost I'd sure enjoy that side effect :)

    3. Stay on track with the calories

    2. Under on calories, carbs and fats
    3. Bed by 10, sleep by 10:30

    3. Get to bed by 10:30 PM
