    I ate all my workout calories & tonight was family night so I went over :( but just by 200.
    I did 30 squats, 100 crunches, 25 arm presses & walked 1.7 miles :). I also had close to 3 cups of salad!

    I'm sure you know all this but i just wanted to make sure...when you do the squats or anything where you bend your knees, be sure your knees do not go over your toes. Also I have knee problems to and i have to play around with how far apart I have my feet. To far or to close and my knees hurt. I have to find that right spot. Make sure you are sticking your butt way out like your about to sit down in a chair that you think might be a little far back and don't go so deep....anyway, you probably got all this or whatever and know what you can do...just wanted to put it out there in case....or in case someone else didn't know.

    thank you for the support! I need it! I got more water in when I got myself on the treadmill...so I got up to 11. And I made some of the overage up...not all. But hey...about 300 is better than over 500. I realized after I had the chips (which I did not eat NEAR what I thought I wanted) that I don't really enjoy them like I used to and thought I would. So I guess that's good. And yes tomorrow is new. I am gonna stick to my motto to "just succeed today". Even though I didn't today, tomorrow it wont matter cause it will be a new chance to succeed!

    1. Stayed with in my allowed calories
    2. Logged all of my food.
    3. Had 10glasses of water plus

    Here is the report for yesterday. If you don't see your name on it that's because you have not checked in at all. There are a few that did not check in yesterday and I will need a check in tomorrow with both days or you will be dropped as well... I hope you call come back for next week if you just could not do it this week! :)

    i haven't really tried playing around with how far apart my feet are..maybe that will help! i picked up a bottle of glucosamine today which apparently helps with knees. fingers crossed it will...even bending down to pick up my puppy or something they hurt! i'm only 22 i shouldn't have these kind of pains already lol
