    Well...I over-over ate, with chocolates, caramels, and popcorn. But I also lifted all the weights so let's just hope I'm getting some good gains. Good gym performance with the extra fuel.

    I got in a good workout of shoveling snow for 30 minutes. Who needs a gym?

    Cheese is my kryptonite as well! My small step for today was to make sure I cooked a healthy meal for dinner last night, with enough left over for a healthy lunch today! Meal prep and planning is KEY!

    Someone gave us a huge bag of candy. I did not eat any because it would have be a slippery slope I would have went back for just one piece many times. I felt good about saying no thank you!

    I'm prepping for our hike on Friday by making my dog a backpack so he can carry his own things. It's a small thing since it's not necessary to have but it's uplifting to do. I'll also take him on a long-ish walk later to work on his training more - 2 yr old 90lb german shepherd so it's got to be right. He's never been hiking with us :)

    I haven't been able to hike in awhile first because of time (incredible devastating stressful situation thrown at us), then my back and finally the weather here in the last month or two lol.

    I'm so freaking happy to be planning this because a hike leaves me feeling strong and motivated and elevates my mood. Hiking is my happy place.

    Decided to up my protein goal to 114 grams and decrease my sugar goal to 40 grams! My BIG step of the day was not getting my usual sugar-filled coffee.

    I've lost about 10 pounds now which is the point where I typically lose momentum and start gaining again, which is NOT going to happen this time, so I know I need to kick it into high gear. I got super inspired yesterday reading other people's NSV's (non-scale victories) on MFP, so finally got up the courage to start C25K again. And I didn't suck! Also trying to shave about 100 off my daily calorie intake for a little extra help. Baby steps!

    Bad night last night- had trouble sleeping. I am just struggling to not grab sugar and carbs. That's what got me here - replacing sleep with sugar

    Walked for a half hour before work today and am on track with my water (1/2 gallon at work, 1/2 gallon when I get home).

    I got my *kitten* to the gym after not going yesterday. I finally have energy today and my mood is fantastic. As a narcoleptic, every day that I don't go to the gym and push myself, I end up having poor energy and a sour mood. :neutral:

    Feeling great today though! :smile:

    That's what it's all about, making those small changes to keep yourself happy, sane, an energized.

    I cleaned out my pantry and gathered ALL the chocolates and candy and put them out of sight!

    I actually made the hubby and I breakfast this morning! We're not morning people at all... But hopefully we can work on that
