LOL...the will power dust is too cute!

I too met most of my goals for the day. The two outside walks on my break, stuck to the food I brought to work, did a workout when I got home and had a good dinner. Tomorrow I will focus on drinking more water.

Default Hi! Newbie Here!

I started 2 days ago, and so far, so good. I've started drinking more water, and will try for a good 30-minute walk today!

ok, I'm a little sluggish today. I slept a really long time and this usually happens when I'm getting sick. Or, hopefully I'm just tired. The sudden hot weather here in philly is causing havoc on my sinuses.

Any inspirational words?

If your body is telling you to rest there is a reason

as for your sinuses have you tried a saline flush - a neti pot, this works wonders for sinus and allergy symptoms ( you can google for more info)

hope you feel better

Oh! I wish I had seen this on Monday. I've been back at this since the 25th, too. So far so good!

I've mainly just been focusing on getting my eating in check so far. I have been counting calories and eating more veg, drinking more water, etc. and as of this (Thursday) morning it seems I've already lost 3 pounds! I know it's just water weight but I'll take it.

How's everyone else doing?

Wow, its been a tough week getting back into the swing of things. I didn't work out as much as I wanted mainly cause of the sudden heat surge we had. I can't stand when it goes from hot weather to cold without the spring temperature buffer. My body can't handle it. My eating has not been too bad though and I am impressed with myself in that regard. I do feel less bloated with eliminating soda, my mound bowl of ice cream, chips, etc. I've eaten more veggies and fruits this past week which I've enjoyed.

I hope everyone else is doing well!
