    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? With all the exercise I got I had trouble eating ENOUGH! so I think that's a YES
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Well I did go over but only because I didn't exercise or walk so I'm not sure if that's a success or not.
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Put half my dinner in a take out box before eating it.
    What would I have done differently? walked and or exercised at least 15 minutes
    What is today's personal goals? figure out what I want to do calories wise and try to get centered again (yoga/meditation). I'm tired of feeling off.

    I'm having trouble keeping up with this one on a regular basis so I'm going to withdraw. Maybe next month will be easier but I'm a single mom of 3 teens with 2 other challenges and a full time job that is making me crazy and aggravating my spinal issues.

    Good luck to everyone who can keep up!
