    Sunday, January 29th
    1. Water 10-12 always harder on Sunday!- Nope- I said harder on Sundays! I think I drank 2
    2. an Extra 300 calories movement- don't think so. Didn't wear HRM. who knows
    3. Stay near calorie allowance-Nope over

    So goal wise yesterday was not good. Number one goal was to relax and enjoy time with husband. That was accomplished. Can tell not enough water though as we ate out and my fingers are swollen and don't want to work!

    Monday January 30
    1.WATER!!!! Gotta wash this salt out!
    2. I need an extra 500 calories burned today to make up for yesterday!
    3. Stay within 100 of calorie goal.

    I know I won't be totally clean eating (homemade chocolate birthday cake) but going to try to stay within calorie limit. Cake is hard to get calorie count (how big is one slice?) Box said 1/10 of cake. I know my slice was smaller, but not going to worry too much, just burning a few extra calories!
    Keep the chins up and the heart rates up today!
