    Hey everyone! That head cold turned into bronchitis. I haven’t had a voice for a week. If you want a great ab workout, just cough all day every day and believe me they will be sore like no other. I’m still under the weather with it all, but I’m getting better. I obviously haven’t been to the gym all this time but because I haven’t had much of an appetite I’ve managed to stay in my calories and have lost a couple of pounds! That’s the only plus side. Hopefully I can kick this crud for good very soon and be back in the gym. Homemade andouille sausage and corn chowder with homemade corn cakes on the griddle last night.

    @ninerbuff I’m jealous! We love Star Wars!! My sons birthday is the 20th and we will get a sitter for the toddler and take him to go see it then. In fact he’s been building director krennic’s ship out of legos the past couple of days. That’s also who he was for Halloween! Have fun!

    Happy Saturday! Coughed pretty bad throughout the night. Didn’t get much sleep.

    Cardio: still not ready

    Strength: still not ready

    Assessment: I have a holiday party this afternoon at my aunts house. There will be lots of food there. I’m going to try to not indulge too much.

    Hey guys! Still coughing too bad to hit the gym. Don’t want to spread my germs. I’m glad everyone’s shoulders are feeling better.

    Cardio: cleaning around the house

    Strength: none

    Assessment: once I’m over this cough I’m going to really get back in the groove with things. My diet hasn’t been the best the past couple of days. I need to get back on track with it. Mexican cornbread last night (been cooking comfort foods)

    Hey guys!

    Holidays are screwing me up time wise! I want my life back please!

    Steps - 17081

    Cardio - None

    Strength - Goblet squats 4/5/20 lbs. I actually had to do these in my kitchen as I was cooking dinner at 8pm!

    Assessment - Not a good day! Nutritionally poor. Stayed within my calories but was full of eating on the run and Christmas stuff at work. I am going to be challenged in this area over the holidays! Oh well. It's once a year. I will deal with it!
