Scale goals
Dec 1 weigh-in: 176.6
End of 2017: 174.6
Jan 31 goal: 169. That's a 1.5 lb/week drop from a start of 175, which makes the math a little easier!
Goal for 1/8: 173.5. Today: 178. I don't think I'll get my stretch sequence or piano practice in. I'm working on the blog post and will have breakfast and lunch prepped before I get ready for bed. Had a bit of a catastrophe at the gym; my phone fell down BEHIND the lockers as I was getting my things to leave. It took almost half an hour to retrieve it. So I pretty much came home, switched out of my sweaty T-shirt, and we went straight to the dance class. Fortunately the phone still works

Well today was a bust.
Had my med test, and finally got to eat, and overdid it. Really in the red.
I did log my calories though.
How discouraging.
Tomorrow will be difficult as well, as school is closed due to weather, so I will need to work at home with my three kiddos around. That never goes well.
JFT 1/5
Log calories
Fast until noon
Drink 64 oz water
Get up early to get in as much work as possible before the kids wake up!
It's too cold here to go outside, so walk at the mall tomorrow evening, instead of my planned workout at work.6 -

Following this there were tube (subway!) issues which meant it took me ages to get home and additionally all the transport was overcrowded which made the journey stressful. As a result I really didn't feel like exercising when I got home.
HOWEVER despite all this I refrained from snacking/ over eating (and I did think about it on the way home) which I'm going to count as a win! Let's hope I can keep that up I'll do the exercise on Sunday instead.
Today's commitments were -
- Log everything I eat
- No snacks except Ryvita if hungry
- Be in the green (without eating back exercise kcals)
- Leave work by 5.30
- Do exercise DVD
Tomorrow's commitments are:
- Log everything I eat
- No snacks except Ryvita if hungry
- Be in the green (without eating back exercise kcals)
