    1-10 & 1-11
    Green: Yes & Yes
    Green Goal: 8/27
    Exercise: No & Yes
    Exercise Goal: 8/20

    I'm slowly attempting to reach my weekly goal of 20 walking and/or running miles. It's tough, but I guess it wouldn't be a challenge if it wasn't. :)

    @bbinoa Glad you're feeling a little better.
    @MelissaPhippsFeagins Did you get your exercise act together yet? I have certainly been there and done that before.

    1/11 - red 10/26
    Streak 0
    Exercise - no

    @bbinoa Buy bear spray and hit the trail. The truth is that they will try to avoid you if they can.

    @Laughter_Girl not yet, but Mondays are Cub Scout nights. Barre class tonight. DOMS tomorrow.

    January 10 and 11. 2016
    Goal 26 of 31
    Green today? Yes 11/25
    Streak 11
    Exercise goal 16
    Exercise today? Yes 7/16

    Today remains to be seen so I'll wait. I feel so out of routine right now and I'm not sure why... Doing ok with tracking and am getting back on track with exercise but feel off balance somehow. Too busy maybe.

    @bbinoa, I like the looks of the fingerless gloves but my fingers are what get cold! Lol

    I have a pair of those with mittens that flip over the fingertips. :-)

    Both green w/exercise! Yippee!

    @k80flec - oh no! Feel better. That doesn't sound nice at all :(

    I believe my daughter said of the fingerless gloves "why wear gloves if they don't keep your fingers warm?" Yea. Well, it's practice! I'm thinking I could wear them for walking... you need a little warmth, but still want your hands free for stuff.

    I have no idea where I ended up yesterday! Had a vendor take me out for this fabulous lunch at this place that uses all locally sourced Ingredients. Meals were under 500 calories but there was some appetizer sharing and a dessert! Oh well. It was really really good!!!

    @bbinoa Lunch sounded yummy. You've got me looking forward to my shake for breakfast in the morning. Since that's my next planned meal, that's all I've got. I'll put extra strawberries in it. :-)

    Thank you for your good wishes . . . . . I seem to be on the mend now. Hope to get back on track with exercise and steps next week.
    @bbinoa - I agree, lunch sounds fab.
    @MelissaPhippsFeagins - they aren't too difficult to knit - glove mittens!

    Green! Yea! Even with a little splurge for dessert. One of those days where I didn't sit down, or get to eat lunch until after 2. kind of crazy! My MFP phone app continues to not record stuff correctly though. I added some walking and it doesn't reflect it. Weird.

    Finished my first knitting class project! Fingerless gloves. I've been showing them off at work this morning, LOL!

    @bbinoa Congratulations!!! I would be showing off my hard work too. :) What's the next project?
    @MelissaPhippsFeagins I sure hope you made it to the gym. It's always tough for me to restart exercising after taking a little break. Of course that "little break" could be just a rest day, but it always feels like a lifetime ago. Ha, ha, ha. I'm looking forward to reading a glowing report from you.
    @k80flec You had a lofty "Green" goal like me this month. And like me, you'll be cutting it close to reach this month's goal. We can do it though!!!
