    My goal has been to eat more intuitively. Not sure how I'm measuring that, but it's something I'm working on. Also to get in my workouts--having an issue with my foot (bad timing, as I'm going to a running camp this coming weekend and THEN starting physical therapy, but my doctor said no harm should come, it just might mean it can't perform as well), and also starting a new strength training focus.

    Also, no snacking on junk food at work.

    Goal for Halloween is to stay with my lifting program. Seven weeks is a good amount of time for me to develop it into a habit. :)

    I'm going for 149 by October 31st. It's an aggressive goal for me. But I just really, really want to get to goal by year end and stop messing around. The family has been warned and is on-board. I will be logging all food till year-end and endeavoring to stay within my daily calorie goals with quality, nutritious food. So here goes:
    CW: 163 (Today)
    GW: 149 (October 31st)
    Pounds to goal: 14

    So I got up and was eating a rice cake I was doing good and my husband must have left a candy bar next to his chair as all of a sudden the dog brought one to me. Well I took this as an omen I needed to eat it as the dog has never brought me candy before ;) Plus it is the first day of my new job LOL OH You know somedays you just go with the flow. LOL I'll work on the candy thing. :D

    I am at 163 lbs and my goal is to lose 1-2 lbs a week. Hopefully that will put me between 149-156 lbs. My NSV is to be happy in my costume :)
