    Tonight I am going to a wedding. I'm definitely going to the gym beforehand and definitely am drinking water but I have to say I'm a bit nervous!!! Also I had such a bad day on Wednesday that I am having such an off week this week and had a bad weigh in today so I'm a bit down. :(

    Morning!

    I did NOT want to work out this morning, but ended up doing 45 mins running on the treadmill while I watched the Royal Wedding (I told myself I couldn't watch it unless I was on the treadmill). Feeling great now, especially with how easily the time passes with something to watch, and have rewarded my efforts with a bought iced green tea (I usually make it myself here at the office).

    @caitysparkles: It's awesome that you're planning ahead for the festivities tonight, and talking up your strategy for the day/evening. That's something to be proud of. Life always will throw curveballs, so just roll with it and plan as best as you can. If you falter, just pick yourself up and keep on keeping on. You can do it!

    Have a great Friday everyone!

    That happens with me sometimes when I set really specific goals for myself. Sometimes, it's just better when I go with the flow on some things. I was getting more water before this week too, but I'm also a little busier than last week.

    Drinking water was never that hard for me. I just get lazy sometimes and don't want to get up and get some more. Or I'm outta the house all day and forget my bottle. But this week I have been pretty good :)

    I ended up exercising an extra day... I wasn't sure if standing on my feet for 8 hours was actually "working out". I counted it for exercise cals since it was my first day and in the past year and a half, I had gotten used to a sedentary office job. But just in case, I added an extra day of working out as well.
