Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes

Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Yes

What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Went to the Y - Elliptical 40 minutes and ordered the the mediterranean chicken salad -at Friday's YUMMO!! I was thinking about chicken fingers so I definitely made the better choice. (I need to double check the calories ... it was way to good for under 500 calories... LOL :laugh:

What would I have done differently? Nothing

What is today's personal goals? Stay within my calories and workout.

    I sure wish I could stay within calories. I do fantastic until night time. I really need to find my motivation somewhere under all these rolls.

    Goldk, I'll be interested to hear tomorrow how you survived TWO parties.

    teahsmama - There's a no late night snacking group that I just joined a week ago that has helped me greatly in that area. The first two days were kind of hard, but I set my watch as a reminder or simply went to bed. It has helped me TREMENDOUSLY.

    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? Went to the Y and worked out on the elliptical for 45 minutes, jogged for 10 minutes at a 9-minute pace, and didn't have one sweet thing at work! :bigsmile:

    What would I have done differently? Not eaten SO many pickles -- too much sodium I realized after reading the label! Retained quite a bit of water. Ugh. :grumble:

    What is today's personal goals? Not to eat sweets at work just because of my emotions (boredom, stressed, angry, etc.) or just because I see my co-workers eating. Try to get in a workout between the 3 jobs I have going on today. And, drink LOTS and LOTS of water!

    Hey, night time is harder for me too that's why I have a 175 cal break fast and a 150 cal snack and a 300-400 cal lunch so I an have a little more for dinner...sometimes...

    It's areay22 that has the 2 parties. I'll tell you... if it was me I am not sure if I would make it :laugh: I need to work on the whole willpower thing :bigsmile: I love food. I am working hard on the mindset of food to live and not live for food. I try to remind myself everyday. :happy:

    But I know you will do just fine areay22!!!
