    In the green for the day. Proud of myself because I almost mindlessly snacked while watching tv after dinner with my husband. He was snacking, and I automatically reached for some, but realized I wasn't hungry. I let go of it and ignored the snacks. Woo hoo!

    Hello everyone,
    My day started off bad, car got hit by a drunk driver. I'm fine and my car had minor scratches. I'm pretty sure the girl got a dui and reckless driving. But then I went bowling with the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins and that was a great time. Bought my presents for two kids I adopted for christmas today so they can have a good christmas. Walked around walmart for an hour trying to work off done calories. Now relaxing while my friends rest horribly fattening food. Day started bad but ended amazingly. :)

    This weekend was pretty much a wash - I think the only goal I met yesterday was getting up early. Today (Sunday) i did get 30+ minutes of exercise in, and got 2 veggies and 1 fruit, but only 4 glasses of water (plus I slept in... but it is the weekend...). Ah well, tomorrow starts a new day and a new week :-)

    1. 30 day shred or another form of exercise for 30 minutes a day.
    2. Drink my 64 ounces of water every day

    Hey December challengers...I have been doing my challenge, but couldn't access the group topics on my phone. I rarely log in online, so I will try to remember each day to check in. This challenge has a daily check in, right? I signed up for 2 December challenges and I am getting confused.

    I did ok over the weekend. I did track on MPL and stayed within my calorie goal. I took my 2 days off from exercise, so I'm back to exercise every night this week. I did 70 minutes on the elliptical this evening, so hopefully I can continue the trend. :)

    Best of luck, all!

    Hello ladies!

    I apologize for not checking in over the weekend. My hubby was only home for 30hrs and I had to spend every second I could with him. I did, however, stay under my cals all weekend. I may have slacked on exercise but laundry for 5 and "helping" clean bedrooms should count for something lol. Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

    YAY!!! Back on track today. Felt good about that. Exercised for 30 minutes. Drank 2 liters of water. Stayed under calories. Helped to pack my food for the day and eat only what I had taken. Was pretty easy.
    Jenergy so glad you are okay. Must have been pretty scary.
    I see everyone is doing a GREAT job this December.
    Keep up the good work y'all.
    Get a good nights sleep and we'll hit this again tomorrow.
    Oh yeah already have my food packed for tomorrow.

    Glad everyone is having a good day. For me, not so much. I didn't even track food or water because I wasn't feeling good, and not particularly happy this morning either. Tonight though made sure dinner had plenty of vegetables (lunch did too). So, while I may have gone over in calories, I don't feel too terrible about it. I didn't intentionally overeat due to my mood, but did have some chips early in the day. Its not my cheat day because we're going out later this week, which kept me from also going overboard. Anyhow, before I whine any further, good night!

    Happy Monday gang!

    I had circuit training tonight for my strength training. I also spent time on the bike trainer and elliptical to get my calories into the green. Packed lunch but didn't bring snacks for the 10 hours of driving and meeting so I snagged candy bars (yes plural) at gas stations. Had day 1 of the left overs so that was my cooking for the night.

    looks like everyone is having a good start to the week--keep it up!
