    JFT, 12/26

    1. Stay within weight-loss calories :)
    2. Walk the dogs :)
    3. Workout :) Went for two bikes rides; one in the afternoon, one after work
    4. No drinking o:)

    Got a new Fitbit yesterday because my Flex that I've had for 2 years finally broke. I chipped it right by the charging ports so it wouldn't connect to the charger anymore. So, I'm trying out a Charge HR. I'm going to wear both my HRM and the Fitbit for a few workouts to see how they compare.

    JFT, 12/27

    1. Stay within weight-loss calories
    2. Walk the dogs
    3. Workout - maybe another bike ride if it's warm
    4. No drinking
    5. Go shopping for some workout clothes
    6. Figure out how to fix my MFP progress - it's now showing only my loss since last weigh-in, not since I started. :#
