    Did I exercise for 20+ minutes? NO --- I've had a cold that went into my lungs -- I just couldn't stop hacking enough to exercise today. I will resume tomorrow -sick day-, I almost got on the bike anyway, but I can't catch a breath through my cough.

    Only two more really tough days to get through. We're cooking a mini-turkey dinner tomorrow AND clam chowder. Our youngest daughter was camping in Utah for Thanksgiving and missed our Thanksgiving meal so I'm doing a little shortened version with just turkey, stuffing, gravy, sweet potatoes and greens. She's happy and I should be able to make it work for me even easier than I did Thanksgiving. The next day is brunch type food and muffins. I found a nice brunch meal here on MFP that we're going to try so that should help me get through Christmas. It's definitely doable anyway!

    Welp. Christmas eve I let myself go. I was too busy to work out, I wasn't able to log everything I ate because we had lots of homemade appetizers that would pretty much be impossible to log since I didn't know the ingredients in every food, and I don't believe I stayed within my goal today :( I want to participate in January's challenge though and I think I'll have more success with that one.
