    1. I had 100 oz of water (out of 128oz)
    2. I exercised for 70 mins (out of 60 mins a day)

    Good morning all!

    I've been doing really well this week - I've reached my water goal everyday and haven't broken my diet once! The only exercise I've been getting though is long walks with my dogs. I've got seasonal allergies pretty bad and haven't felt up to anything else. I'm hoping for renewed energy on this!

    My goals:
    1. Drink 64oz of water a day.
    2. Stick to my diet every day of the week (especially weekends!).
    3. Exercise 30 minutes a day.
    4. Lose 10 pounds by Halloween.

    I took OH to out of state dr yesterday. He has surgery set up for Oct 25th and will be off work at least 4 weeks. I only got in 3,863 steps and no workout :( I also only got in 55oz of water but I did log all my food.

    So far today I have done 40 min strength. I think I'm going to change my cardio goal from 30min mon-fri to a total of 2 1/2 hrs cardio a week. Time to get my water in :-)

    My goals are:
    120oz of water each day
    10,000 steps daily
    30 min of cardio mon-Friday
    20 min of strength each week
    Lose 5lbs by Oct 28th
    Oh and of course log all my food

    You cleaned your house for 6 hours? I think there is medication for that! J/K! Sunshine, have you ever tried Fiber One Brownies or chewy bars? They seem to work as a quick sugar fix for a lot of people, not just myself. And a tip to ALL, since we are all encouraging eachother....when i come home from work I usually hit the fridge without even thinking about it. Lately I walk in, turn on a pot w/2 cups of my gallon of water and make green tea. You have no choice but to sip it OR wait for it to cool and drink as iced tea. Just a tip. Have a wonderful day all!! And thanks for your support Elimay!
