    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Didn't track, but few calories for breakfast and lunch for planned dinner out with husband before going back to work. I ate things I shouldn't, but hadn't for 6 weeks, so was ready for a treat! Will be back to better choices on Wednesday! Sometimes you just have to endulge and not beat yourself up about it!
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Didn't set one.
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Donated blood and went out for dinner.
    What would I have done differently? fairly careful but felt crappy when I was done eating. Didn't feel guilty since I have eaten well for about 6 weeks but it wasn't worth overeating. Stomach upset and it just wasn't worth the extra calories. WOW! My system must be adjusting to my new eating habits! : ) oh..........and I actually had less weight on the scales this morning! lol probably catch up with me tomorrow!.
    What is today's personal goal? min 1 hour exercise and stay w'in calories


    Sun - 1 hr treadmill, 15 min elliptical, 15 min strength
    Mon - 1 hr treadmill 20 min elliptical 10 minutes strength
    Tues - 1/2 hr treadmill

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? LOL no way.
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Also, negative.
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? I overate and didn't gain anything. I lost 1lb, in fact.
    What would I have done differently? Nothing. Zero regrets. Gymming it up today!
    What is today's personal goals? Gym. Hitting the weights.

    I'm very far from where I want to be by this same time next year and I'm okay with that. Slow and steady.

    Goal a the end of summer - 170-160 Either will do. Doesn't matter.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Probably not
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? didn't set any
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? a 90 minute walk - went to visit my mom at the cemetery. 7 months later and it still hurts just as much as it did the day she passed. It sucks! She's missing so much - my promotion, my daughter going back to school, my daughter's new braces, my husband's new job, my dad going on his first day\bus trip without her, so much... :brokenheart: :cry:
    What would I have done differently? log..log...log
    What is today's personal goals? check in, make good food choices and the elliptical.

    I woke up late on Saturday and didn't make it to Zumba but I got a nice walk in yesterday. After I went for my walk I did a load of laundry - half way through the wash I remembered my Fitbit was still attached to my bra. I ran downstairs and saved my Fitbit - LOL I can't believe it is still working. According to my Fitbit I burned 600 calories yesterday. Last weekend when I did Zumba it registered 150 calories burned. Oh well - I still like how it motivates me to move more :-)
