    Elimay - thanks for the tater tot picture, mmm they look good and also bad!!!!

    Not checked in for a couple of days, sorry. I weighed myself on Sunday to find that I had put back on 3 lbs - arghhh. After taking 3 months to lose 4 lbs this is not good. I know this is because I haven't been working out and I can't really see me getting back into a workout routine until New Year. Oh well, never mind, I'm not going to get upset about it.

    4 more sleeps til Christmas - youngest daughter is getting very excited and me too :drinker:

    Good Morning:

    Good to see you back sammy. Hang in there with us.

    Checking in for yesterday:
    Log calories - yes
    Eat less than burn - No, but just barely over
    exercise - yes - calesthenics at home in front of the TV. Hey, it's something! Progress not perfection.
    Enjoy holiday - yes - Played some Christmas music on the piano. I'm lousy, but it makes me feel good.

    I will get my jumping jacks done today. I like the mini challenge, by the way. It prompts me to add something else.

    Thanks girl for making me do this.

    Goals:

    1. Eat salad and soup everyday
    2. Exercise 3X a week.

    Good habit:

    Watch less TV( As I am a full time mom my TV is ON most of the day, I get so involved I can't even do my daily chores. I know it bad and I want to break this habit.) So No or less TV.

    Free Day:
    I wanna give myself free Saturday.

    Half way through another week thankfully...of course that means I am one day closer to having two of my consumers lose their home and I still have not found funding for them to move--stupid paperwork headaches. Since I can't get this mess straightened out I am afraid I won't be able to talk any time off. sorry for the rant but work is overwhelming.

    Outside of the office, I got time in on the bike and went for a walk (with a bit of jog thrown in)after work. I also did about 20 minutes of strength training. Oh and 100 jumping jacks.

    Squeaked under my calories for the day. Didn't cook anything outside of making an egg sandwich for supper.

    I gave in to temptation and had a 1/2 a brownie at the office. Evil coworkers left it sitting right on my desk.....it stared at me for about 30 minutes before I gave in.

    Hope everyone had a great day!!

    Sorry I was AWOL for a day. Was enjoying some fun time with my son. Looks like everyone is doing well.
    I stayed under calories today. Drank all of my water. Logged in.
    I really miss when I don't get on and read how everyone is doing.
    Have at least been getting in my exercise everyday also.
    Will check in with you all again tomorrow night.
    Love you all.

    Hi everyone! I've had a bad day. I cracked and had three no bake cookies. One I would be able to live with but three? I'm rather ashamed of myself. Tomorrow is a new day, though. Hopefully it will be better! Have a great day everyone!

    Good morning all. Checking in early because I don't know if I will get a chance to check in tonight. I have a Christmas party with my Friday Lunch Bunch girls. It should be a BLAST. Plan on having a couple of margaritas so probably will not do all that well today.
    Hope all is safe and having an AWESOME day.

    Yay, I exercised this morning!!!!! Only a short 20 minute cardio workout, but at least I managed it after no proper cardio for about 3 weeks. Have to admit I found it quite hard and was getting out of breath easily, but I think I can build again from here and soon be back to my 45 minute sessions.

    Food has been fairly healthy today (just a few cookies, ssh, don't tell anyone will you), with grilled chicken and broccoli planned for dinner.

    3 more sleeps til the big guy calls, hope I am on his 'good' list :wink:

    Hello hello! One day closer everyone!

    Work and holidays has kept me very very busy. My sleep schedule is now totally flipped upside down. Went on an organizational tear last night and didn't fall asleep until almost 6am! Oh well.

    I weighed in yesterday, and that went well. I know my scale isn't very accurate, but it's what's going to have to do.

    I work tonight and tomorrow so I get to make some holiday cash moneys, and I know I'll get my water intake when I'm there.

    Hello everyone,

    Hope we are all doing well today. It's going to be a long day for me. Been at work since 8 and not leaving until 5. Then straight to Karate class. Going to be working extra hard today because some friends and i are going out for my 24th Birthday and my friends 22nd Birthday and i want to be able to eat some yummy food tonight! So finishing karate at about 6:30 then home to get cleaned up and changed to go to dinner at the hibachi bar and then to karaoke. WOOO for singing! But still going to be portioning my food tonight and anything left over is lunch for tomorrow! :smile: So far today i think i have done a pretty good job trying to eat healthy. Had some special k cereal with the strawberries with almond milk (yummy!) then for lunch had a pineapple spinach salad with lemon poppy seed dressing and a small bowl of spinach and feta cheese! Trying to eat light so i can eat yummy tonight! :happy:

    Goals for today:
    1) water...getting better with it but still need more!
    2) work out hard
    3) no junk food
    4) Try not to eat too much hibachi! :laugh:

    Personal goal:
    1) Make sure to have fun tonight...you only get one birthday a year! :drinker:

    Have an amazing day everyone!:wink:
    Brandi :tongue:

    Happy Birthday Brandi. I vaguely remember being 24, and equally busy and active.

    Good work Sammy.

    I indulged in a few cookies this evening. I only had soup for lunch so calories are not as bad as I feared.
