    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? - Not checking, I was downtown Chicago all of Monday
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? see above
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Walked fast for an hour
    What would I have done differently? Really though I behaved well on a couple nights and a day out.
    What is today's personal goals? Stay under calories, weight work, and get ready for a house-full of company. (my daughter and 7 college friends)
    Exercise weekly progress (Sun-Sat) 2/6 days of exercise this week.

    :flowerforyou: GoldK, you do know what to do... I hope you can get back on track and that you have peace in your family situation! It really helped me to stock up on a few healthy alternatives for some bad food habits that had crept up on me. One thing I know from seeing all the elliptical work you do, is you are in great physical shape, now to get the "shape" you are after! :happy:

    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Took a week off.
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Well, I did host 7 college students all week!
    What would I have done differently? Might have to rethink the taking a week off idea!
    What is today's personal goals? Get back on track, Laundry, a walk stay under my calories
    Exercise weekly progress (Sun-Sat) 2/6 days of exercise last week. 0/6 this week

    Monday weigh-in Probably should have skipped but I was curious what a week of no exercise and eating with-out tracking would do :grumble: UP 4.5 pounds! crazy! 137.8. I really did not think I could put it on that quick! We will see what a week of getting back on track does! I certainly would not want to slip back into these habits!

    :drinker: :flowerforyou: Yippee Gold k!!! :drinker: :flowerforyou: CONGRATULATIONS on your engagement and a new house!! So happy for your steps in a new life!
