I guess I should have expected this after my weekend but it is still upsetting that I can't seem to get out of the 190's. I am super frustrated so I am off to work out.

I wanted to check my measurements, but I have to have my BF's help to get them correctly.
Personal Goal:
Add ab exercises - Just need to do them.
Strength training - don't want to go alone (in progress)0 -
Checking in: I didn't weigh myself, but I did meet my personal goals, which were to continue my current exercise regimen and to (a) make my food diary public; and (b) actually record what I eat. I obsess over the number on the scale and think that this may be a little unhealthy. I'm at a very healthy weight and struggle with the fact that I'm about 8 lbs heavier than I was in law school. Of course, that was 7 years and a baby ago!0

Personal Goal Format

Month’s Goal:
1. Finish week 5 of C25K by end of the month
2. Reduce daily sugar intake (this is pretty subjective but I'm gonna start monitoring it better in my diary)
Week 2: PROGRESS:
1. Started week 3 yesterday - killer, but I'm sticking with it!
2. Down a little but still too much in a day. Can't give up my morning latte that's almost a full day's sugar. :noway:
Been trying to do all the challenges and those have pushed me further than I would have gone on my own. Keep it coming Kate!!0 -
My goal was to exercise 3 x's a week as I'm starting from basically none. I didn't "exercise" 3 x's a week but I have increased my activity this past week.
This week I will actually do something exercise related no less than 3 x's.
