I totally missed my goals this week. I lifted 1 day, no Zumba at all, and left my Fitbit at home accidentally. I'm glad this month is OVER. 2 more months of chilly weather, then it's my favorite time of the year!

Great job everyone on meeting and exceeding the goals you set for yourself this month.

I ended up with lower back pain after spending all of Saturday morning on my feet, staffing a table at a conference. I took a couple of slow walks yesterday, so the minutes were okay, but the steps weren't what I'd usually get from that much time walking. It looks unlikely that I'll make my goals, after all, this month -- but I got close!

February goals: 1200 minutes, 8 ST session, 23 days of at least 8K steps
