    J4T Monday
    1. Do not go over on calories with leftover party food. :smiley: gave away all the goodies! It's helpful that I employ several active young men. They are willing to eat all kinds of stuff that I can't be trusted to have around. Today the got pretzels, goldfish crackers and Bronco's m&ms!
    2. Pre log and stick to the plan :smile:
    3. Zumba at 9am :smile: did it at 530 instead
    4. Day 8 of Squat Challenge :smile:
    5. Go to pysical therapy with mom :smile:
    6. Gym in evening weights :smile:
    7. No Snacks over calorie limit in evening- grrr! I ate popcorn, just 100 calories worth, but it always makes me feel icky. It's not like I didn't know. Why is it so hard to make good choices!!!!

    I popped in this afternoon to look at my goals for the day to be sure I am on track---turns out I forgot to make goals for today----guess this means I get to go CRAZY!!!! :wink:

    Better late than never...
    J4T Tues
    1. Take breakfast lunch and snack with me to work :smile:
    2. Do stuff at work that I have been avoiding
    3. Go to gym - elliptical, challenges, weights
    4. Make new goals for Wednesday
    5. Do not eat over calorie limit and do not eat stuff that will make me sick. Make a good choice for evening snack.

    JFT Wednesday
    1. Day 3 Foundation
    2. Dishes
    3. Vacuum Living Room and work on spots
    4. Paper log food (didn't weigh breakfast or lunch, so just for documentation of some sort). My weight loss really has stagnated to about 10-11years ago levels where I was steady for a while. I need to reevaluate what/how much I'm eating again especially since I've been less active with the randomly changing weather.
