    I was happy I tracked my whole weekend even if I went over on calories. I gained a pound this weekend
    so I will be able to take that off by next weigh in. Tracking this weekend kept me accountable.
    Good luck everyone this week!

    I am gaining although I seem to have a calorie deficit so I need to figure that out. I probably just need to continue to make the improvements I have been working at but lately I have done well during the day and then get hungry at night so I need to redistribute my calories better.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes and no I am staying within calorie limits but need to stick to home cooked meals and eating earlier in the day.
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? I am doing better with everything but not need to keep improving
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? I went to Aquafit despite busy day
    What would I have done differently? checked in and eaten less after dinner
    What is today's personal goals? start planning meals better, be careful with calories, start to add small walks on days I don't have anyother exercise. OK I can 't do that all today.

    Mon - Aquafit Yes
    Tues - small walk
    Wed - Aquafit
    Thurs - small walk
    Fri - Exercise
    Sat - Exercise

    What is today's personal goals? eat in balance every meal/snack (for the rest of the day) , stay low carb , already did step

    Great group! I am a working mom and also recovering from a severe ankle fracture (June). I do some walking and shoot baskets with my son on weekends and the stationary bike (low impact on the ankle) on week nights (15-25 minutes/3-5 miles).

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Kind of, I went over on protein but I don't think that is a bad thing to go over on every now and then!
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Yes
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? When sharing dinner with friends I avoided that last Dolmade!
    What would I have done differently? Not gone so over on protein
    What is today's personal goals? Stay on track and at least 15 minutes on the exercise bike

    Hi everyone! My name is Alecia...39 year old mommy of 1 vivacious 7 year old girl, and a small biz! Just starting on this, so here we go...
    Due to my busy schedule, I can really only do mornings usually on weekdays, but commit to doing these 4-5 days a week.
    I plan to start Thursday with a 9:30 am spinning class and Friday with an 8:30 am class. I am going to try to do another on Saturday at 8:30 am if I can get my fiancee to watch my daughter...here we go! How exciting. 10 LBS. to lose by 6/8!! Let's make it happen, that's all I can say!
    Thursday-
    Friday-
    Saturday-
    Sunday-
    Want to get back to being in shape after some crazy, life changing events(good ones, but big changes).
