    Oooooh, this is great! (are we checking in for today or yesterday?? Since it's only 4pm here, I'll use yesterday):

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals?
    No. But since I gave blood on Wednesday, I do not feel guilty about it, and that is an accomplishment.

    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal?
    My first time here so didn't have one. Excited to have a "daily goal" though!

    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of?
    Ate the ice cream without any guilt. :laugh:

    What would I have done differently?
    Nipped the night-time snacking in the bud (something I never really do, must've been the ice cream's fault, lol)

    What is today's personal goals?
    I got a GREAT workout in (808 cals), even more intensive than I had planned. I say that's a success!
