    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes

    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? No, I told myself I would eat in moderation. Yeah, that went out the window.

    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Accounted for all the calories I consumed, even though I was 1000+ calories over my limit.

    What would I have done differently? I wish I would have ate half of everything during Father's Day.

    What is today's personal goals? Day 6 of my strength exercises, it's a 30 day challenges of lunges, crunches, push-ups and squats.

    Mood today? Really crabby. My kids are a bit more needier than usual today. No wonder I used the excuse for so long, kids are definitely something that take my time away from exercising. But I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

    Sun - Even after a rough day of eating, I jogged a mile and got in my walk with my Husband and kids.

    Mon - My Father's Day cheat day was just that, I didn't continue today!

    It took me a long time to lose my weight but it really kicked off when I changed my routine. I do more weight exercises now.

    It's really hard!!! I have the exact same issue. I look in the mirror and will my body to get to the size I want it to, and it's super frustrating to keep up the daily grind and see slow (but steady) results. The only thing I can do to help myself is think of the size I started and think about how I'm already lighter than that. Also reminding myself that I'll never hit my goal unless I keep up with the consistent daily work.

    One day at a time, one meal at a time, one workout at a time. We'll get there.

    Hello ladies, going away again for a week of sailing our boat. Leaving tomorrow but will have my tablet to report
    on the Newsfeed. I hope things calm down soon so I can get back to entering on this thread again. It
    keeps me accountable. No scale on the boat, scary. I will track my exercise everyday and any news.

    Enjoy your long weekend and I hope to be back soon. Happy 4th to all my American friends.
