    1. Walk the dogs :)
    2. Day 42 of Body Beast: REST :)
    3. Go to my sister's for nephew's graduation (I would like to petition all my friends and family for one year of NO graduations!!! I seriously know far too many people.)
    4. My food goal today is just to do the best I can; I'd like my daily average deficit for the week to be 250 but it may end up being a maintenance week :oYowza, did I blow it. Mostly on alcohol, of course.
    5. Go for a walk if I get home early enough and see if I can reach >10k steps :/

    Missed yesterday. Was supposed to start week 7 of Body Beast but I've got some kind of back injury/strain going on and think I'm going to have to take a few days off and get that back in order before continuing. So disappointing but I don't want to make it worse.

    JFT, 5/30/2016

    1. Walk the dogs
    2. Get in >10k steps
    3. No weights today - need to rest my back
    4. Stay within weight-loss calories

    4) Log every bite. o:)
    5) Walk after work. :) I walked plenty at work.

    I did not pack nutritious food for work but we were so busy I didn't even notice until 5 pm that I hadn't eaten a thing. So I carefully picked out some items from the Memorial Day spread that fit into my plan (with the exception of one bite of macaroni salad that didn't even taste good.) Way under calories for the day but didn't pig out all day as I was afraid I would. I did have protein shakes at work but did not drink them. Usually they are my safety net.

    JFT Tue 31 May 2016
    1) Jazzercise
    2) Log every bite
    3) Drink 64 oz water
    4) Make kale chips for me and chicken jerky for the dogs
    5) Take Molly & Mabel for a walk
