    Last week, I spent 2 days in Los Angeles. I took my daughter, Catherine and her husband to the Magic Castle, which is a nightclub with small venues for magicians. They had this photo spot set up at the entrance.
    Holiday greetings!!

    That nightclub sounds amazing @RangerRickL !
    I've not decorated yet either @2020pinktogo
    I went to my niece's nativity show today so am feeling more festive. She was a star and I shed a proud little tear.

    Yes x 3. A bit gentle on the exercising though cos now I think I have an ear infection. These winter viruses are taking it out of us! :s

    Hope everyone's had a great day.

    Exercise? Yes; 38 minutes of strength training and 35 minutes of running
    Calories? Yes
    Tracking? Yes

    Goodness, you guys! I decorated before Thanksgiving. I love Christmas!

    I went to my parents' house today, and my mom was baking Christmas cookies. I indulged in sweets, but tracked everything. Thus, I didn't eat very healthy, but still stayed within calories and made it to the gym. Despite the indulgence, I can positively say this is my healthiest holiday season yet.

    I hope that everyone is enjoying the holidays, decorations or not!!

    @pears734 I believe that I am having the healthiest Christmas season so far too. I will take a pass on Christmas Day when our whole family is together. Like @deejkush I save calorie space in my daily budget for my daily 6ounce glass of wine.
    Today:
    Calories: under by 380
    Tracking: good
    Exercise: the off day slow walking on the treadmill. Tomorrow I plan Day 2 of HIIT.
    I do not have @bocasdelbob ability to stay at 90% of maximum heart rate. I top out at 85% and then immediately back off to get down to my exercise base heart rate of 60/65% of MHR.
    The days that I do intervals, I experience the highest metabolic residual effect for more hours. I assume that I burn more calories those days

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes - ran 4.5 K on the treadmill. Took about 40-45 Mins with warm up, cool down and one walking break in the middle. I was impressed since I haven't run in a while and it seemed easy!
