    The only reason I didn’t track yesterday was because I went to an unexpected birthday party and I didn’t wanna stress about it. But I surprisingly didn’t really eat as much as I thought I would so all pluses :)

    @rawrxamberx I hope you had a great time. You have done an awesome job keeping up with the mini challenge this past week.

    Tracked: yes
    Under: yes
    Exercise: no (still sick...seeing a doctor today)

    An update: because I was sick last week, I did not go to the cardiologist. However, once I am better I am going to take my blood test and see how my cholesterol is doing.

    @richmondwriter I hope you will feel better soon.

    I think I had a great week overall! But drank on Saturday and the hangover wrecked my whole Sunday. Why do I do this to myself?!

    I am sorry I haven't had the chance to get on here much over the weekend, other than checking in, but you are all doing fabulous! I am hoping for a very successful week for TBBT!

    What is something you are doing/trying to do to stay on track with your plan?

    I try to have a rough plan of the week's meals. I include veggies and fruits in the plan. It doesn't always work out. But even when it doesn't, I do my best to make sure I have balanced meals and be mindful of portion sizes.

    @brandi_84 That is a good plan! I try to do close to the same thing, but this is the first week I have fully meal prepped for work. The only thing I haven't prepped is the protein for my lunches.

    Richmondwriter: MUAC for 2/10:
    Tracked: yes
    Under: yes
    Exercise: no (still sick)

    I've never been much of a fruits and vegetables eater, but I am eating them a lot more now, as well as more protein. It really makes me feel full longer and less inclined to snack. I have found that I really like roasted cauliflower--never thought I would say that.
