!No Excuses! Janurary Challenge

I also have avoided fast food ! Sorry I haven't made it back every day to post, I'll try harder from here on out. Great job everyone.

Exhausting day today. Forgot lunch but was super busy. Had big dinner but stayed under calories. Packed lunch for tomorrow, so hoping for better day. Did super house cleaning today, burned lots of calories. No fast food

Hey all! I hope everyone had a great week. I did well most of the week. No fast food, except I did have 2 slices of plain pizza for dinner on Friday night. Other than that, I did pretty well. Exercised every day, even though I wasn't feeling that good (annoying cold, both me and my daughter suffering from it!)
It's the weekends that are tough for me. I was under my calorie goals all week, except Fri. late night, I went over. I was helping my best friend stuff invitations for her wedding and she made all these yummy dips and wine! Fortunately I stayed away from the wine (which is a MAJOR victory for me b/c I LOVE my wine!) But I did have a couple scoops of the different dips she was offering. Sat. was also tough, and I forgot to log in. But I will log in today and try to stick to it.
Here's my weight updates:

SW: 167
CW (as of Fri. morning, before my weekend slip-ups!): 164.5
GW for Jan: 159
Ultimate goal weight 140 by summer!!

Maybe for this week's challenge, it could be something about working out? Like trying to get in exercise 5 days next week? Just a suggestion, I'm open for any and all challenges!

Thanks so much for ALL the support everyone! Whenever I feel like giving up or not logging in, I"ll check my email and have "1 new message from myfitnesspal" and it gets me right back on track!!

Have a great week!

I am starting this challenge today!

I just joined yesterday.
no ff today. :happy:

another day no fast food...did have starbucks skinny lattes the last two days on my way to the evening shift at work but counted the calories and fit well within my budget. Did manage to avoid the other junk that tends to make it's way to work on the weekends. AND today was day 14 in a row with at least 30 min of exercise...now if the scale would just move a little more quickly!

Keep up the great work everyone!

Day 6 for me. Had to take my son to ortho apt. I decided to jog up and down the stairs. There are 4 floors, I made it up and down 2 whole times but couldnt catch my breath after so went up and down a single flight 2 more times. Decided I could breathe better outside in the freezing cold(nope) but power walked for 20 minutes. Then had to take boys to Burger King for take out dinner. I got the apple fries, no caramel sauce and drove home. I'm making a sandwich right now to eat. I am so determined to do this.

Had catered lunch at work honey baked ham sandwhich, brownie and chips...but worked out and kept in my calorie goal...i didn't go order it so it's a sorta I guess.

I have had no fast food at all! My husband and I did go out for our anniversary, we went to Applebee's. We don't get out that often never mind without the kids, so we indulged a little. No appetizers, a meal and a mudslide each. The mudslide made me go over my calories by 300. I just had our 2nd child 3 weeks ago and obviously haven't had a drink in a while, so it was worth every calorie to me!! Other than that I've been eating better than I have in years! =]

Had today off. This would usually be my day to get a grinder. Not super bad but bad just the same. I like either turkey/bacon or roast beef. I made a panini instead. I did 14 minutes on stepper for wii then another 20 minutes. Ate well then went to zumba and burned another 600. just got home and ate dinner. had 6oz of home made roast beef and 80 cal mashed potato and home made gravy. No veggies today. Still way under my calories for the day. My bones are aching. Hoping its from the extra work outs I've been doing. I'm not stopping. I just feel good emotionaly. Physically there is some bone aches, doesnt feel like muscle. Any way no fast food for me. I am getting subway tomorrow for lunch cause i am just to tired to go pack food. maybe get up early but probably wont.
