Did you stay within you nutritional goals?
Didn't keep track. I did good for breakfast and my morning snack. Then I went to an Indian restaurant for lunch. I really have no idea how to count that stuff. It's a buffet and I don't know what half of it is called. But it really gave me bad heart burn for the rest of the day, which is unusual, it has never done that. I didn't have anything else yesterday cuz I wasn't feeling good. So I don't really know where my calories were.

Did I reach yesterday's personal goal?
Not sure about calories, but I did finally workout.

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of?
Did P90X Legs and Chest (until I fell from the pull up bar, then I called it done, but I got 40 min. in)

What would I have done differently? Not eaten Indian food. I love this food, but I know it's probably high in sodium and if I don't know how to count it, I shouldn't be eating it. Plus, it is hard for me to control my portions.

What is today's personal goals?
Stay within my calories and workout

Pretty much, although didn't get up to my 20 minutes, only 14 on running.

Actually go to the gym, even though I felt exhausted.

Pushed myself a little harder on the running.

Going to Depeche Mode Concert with friends, so using good sense when sitting around chilling out with food.

Did you stay within you nutritional goals?
Yes, and I did not eat my exercise cals. Woooo!

Did I reach yesterday's personal goal?
I reached the 30 minute mark on the arc trainer, so I can say with confidence, "Yes!"

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of?
I made the mistake of weighing myself (day after my b-day), and noticed a slight gain...despite my frustration, I rallied and did let let my mood ruin my diet. Yay for positive behavior!

What would I have done differently?
Braved the ab machines at the gym. I get intimidated about doing crunches down on the main floor.

What is today's personal goals?
To use an ab machine at the gym! I need to stop being shy and intimidated by other gym members! I belong there as much as they do, if not moreso.

P.S. I'm totally jealous of Lulu getting to go to the Depeche Mode concert---have a great time!!!

Ah... portions... very hard for me to control too. I've been dying for Thai food but I know I will eat the entire meal so I am trying to avoid it a little longer :ohwell:

Have a good day... don't forget to drink your water to flush out the sodium :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
