Did you stay within your nutritional goals? No but only over about 200
Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? went over on calories but did 65 minutes on the elliptical
What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? didn't go way over on calories
What would I have done differently? not eat so much candy:noway:
What is today's personal goals? track calories, check in, and get my hair done (maybe a walk tonight)

Did a great job in October with working out. My goal for November is to try to get a hold on the food part.

Happy November!! This is an open group where we (do our best) to check in daily. All are welcome :flowerforyou:
