    Saturday report
    10k steps :/ so far 9.4 k, maybe 10k by bedtime
    Log calories :)
    Stay green, which is hard on a weekend. :/ Right now 82 cal over, but that's not bad given I spent 12 hours today at a high school robotics competition with only junk food around to eat.
    Eat more fruit. :) I brought and ate 1 banana and 2 clementines. Better than no fruit.

    JFT Sunday
    Grocery shop for exciting but healthy foods.
    Make turkey chili
    Log calories
    Fast til noon
    Exercise!

    3. look for and buy a new water bottle to see if that helps me in getting in my water! Thanks @MLHC1 for that suggestion! :/ I looked in the grocery store, and they were like $27.00!! Is this how much a water bottle costs! Going to look in Walmart next week .... surely they have some that are less expensive!

    Wal-mart does have the best prices for water bottles. I paid around $15 For mine and it is a nice one that double locks and is condensation free. I buy my kiddos water bottles from Academy though. Since they are kids, they tend to lose them so we buy the Academy brand water bottle for $3. They work well and only leak if you tighten them to tight.

    9. Gym for Day 2 weights and steps to 10k. Try to get in some 3-min runs @ 7.0 with bursts of 7.5 m/h.
    10. Complete all learning habits: Duolingo, piano practice? blog post (Five Reasons to Improve Flexibility), script review.
    11. Groceries; enter Plated recipes for next week.
    12. Input goal and introduction to Hogwarts group.

    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: 176.4. It is SO good to see those numbers coming down again! And AFAIK there are no celebrations planned with lots of food. Feeling pretty stoked about the possibility of real progress.

    Oh! And I got my VERY FIRST COMMENT on my blog, Fake It 'Til You Make It. That was super exciting - actually I'm probably more excited about that than is really warranted, but darnit, I'm going to take whatever positives I can get today!

    I love your blog!! Do you know if there is a way to "save" this so I can come back and read it more? Lots of good reading there!

    Thank you! Ummm... well, since you can only get to the blogs through a browser, can you bookmark it there? And I'll try to link the new posts in my updates. (If I can keep writing them, hahaha!)

    It does.. but it takes ALOT of milk. Like 2pints for it to settle lol!
    Gaviscon works straight away, I already take medication for it which is supposed to stop acid production altogether but I must have forgotten to take them probably yesterday?

    And today me and my partner shared some noodles which were so spicy!!! So probably why it feels like hell haha
