    @Mandi I will let you update my weight on the spread sheet, given this opportunity I'd probably cheat. I am off on the "weigh ins" so I will weigh in again on Tuesday so I can be on track with the group. Thank You!

    Several people have asked if there is a "simpler" way to keep track of this log.

    When you click on the message boards you have several options "Home, Recent Posts, My topics, Signature, and search"
    if you click on "My topics" it lists all the topics you have commented on and the ones you did the most appear at the top of the list.

    Or you could bookmark it and refresh it each day when you arrive.

    Hope this helps.

    Self-Challenge: Consistancy at the gym, take my vitamins constantly
    How you are doing on your personal goal - I'm disappointed in myself, as I roll out of the McDonald's drive-thru this morning on my way to work. I've been pretty consistent with my workouts but my diet sucks. And I've been slacking on the vitamins. The leftover Halloween candy have been my Kryptonite. Looking for major INSPIRATION!! :grumble:

    Your personal goal - work out 5 days a week for at least 30 minutes
    How you are doing on your personal goal - I only worked out 4 days a week last week, but most days were over 30 minutes. Saturday I went to a birthday party and went a liiiittle overboard on the baked ziti and cake, but I think in the past it would have been much worse.
