    9/18 - Boy I barely pulled that off! Son's birthday, we had a lazy day at home and it surely shows!

    Back from a work trip to Texas. I ate carefully and was very active while away but seem to have lost a bit of my mojo. Not feeling motivated at all. Hoping to find it while reading through some threads.

    It's a dark rainy Monday here, so @tishsmith101 I hear you about the mojo. Sitting here at work I would just love to go home and curl up in bed.

    This weekend wasn't bad. I have to attend a wedding this coming weekend, so that will be my motivation to keep things going in the right direction! Need to find something to wear. My weight is in flux. My big clothes are too big and my small clothes are too small! I feel like Alice today.

    Day 16:
    Steps: 9015/10,000
    Water: 0ml according to Fitbit lol

    Day 17:
    Steps: 7523/10,000
    Water: 0ml again

    Day 18:
    Steps: 7635/10,000
    Water: 0ml again

    Holy crap, those days were bad! Too much coffee and not enough water.

    This weekend was a bit rough - went all over the place helping my cousin pick out her wedding dress while trying to run all my errands too. I will strive to be better today!

    Today was pretty good!

    Cals: under
    Carbs: 32gm net
    Exercise: Went swimming for 45 mins. (Never sure how to log that since there are pauses/breaks between laps, especially since I'm just learning.) Wore myself out good though! ;)
    No idea about steps since my Fitbit has staunchly refused to sync since 4 a.m. Recharging it for a second time now ... :/

    Finally, my cold has lessened enough that I was able to go to the gym today and put in an honest workout without being a sinusy mess. Back on track with my goal of 5 workouts a week after being waylaid for half of week 2 & part of week 3.

    On the plus side, I can definitely tell now that I am getting stronger. My trainer had been worth every penny! So close to being able to do push-ups on my toes.

    Everyone is doing so well! Keep it up!

    09/19/16, more than accomplished 8500 steps. Think for the last week instead of only bumping up by 500 steps I might go ahead and bump it all the way to 10,000 since I seem to meet or surpass that most weekdays anyway

    Shocking. A chaotic morning at work had me behind all day on steps, water and food. Trying to catch up all day and ended up over on steps and water, but still a bit under on food. Never got breakfast. It was 12;00 before I blinked. Not a bad start to the week.

    Day 19:
    Steps: 14,178/10,000 - YAAAAAS! I also carried about 50lbs of crap (laundry and groceries) about four blocks all by myself so I'm really proud of myself. It made me glad that I lift because I could handle the weight, no problem.
    Water: 1000ml/1500ml - Still fell short of this one. I just don't want to drink water - I'm so bad! I have it readily available but I'm just not into it right now lol

    Exercise: Got some steps in. Tuesdays are more of a rest day for me exercise-wise since it's my busiest work day.

    13k steps 58 min active

    Pretty good considering my bursitis was flaring up and I cut my pm walk a bit short. A good nights sleep and so far I am feeling good to go!

    My Fitbit is refusing to sync but I'm somewhere between 8k and 9999. :p So yes, on point with my new goal.
    Calories in range, logged food, 26gm net carbs. So yay.
