    D - figure out if i am eating enough calories

    I was back up to 248 from 244 (but i figured as much cuz i was sick) now back down to 245. have not been able to get to the gym due to the weather and feeling like crap.
  • W 100
    E Just did half of C25K week 4 (the first 3 minute run and the first 5 minute run) that's enough for right now, knee feels a bit wonky, so thought I would stop there, resume if I can after work, if it still hurts, I will walk the rest of today's 10k steps
    E OP
    D Make excuses or make progress. I am choosing progress. I told my kids I was going to work on this while they were gone this semester. This is the end of their 2nd week back. Time to get with it if I plan to show them I kept my word......
  • Missing In Action!
    Hey Chickadees!

    Man, talk about missing in action! I fell off the Valentine's Day Challenge wagon, but I got back on today. That's all that matters, right? I have my excuses, but they are just that - excuses. So, onward and upward.

    I got to the gym today and stepped on the scale and my weight is reduced. That feels nice in some ways, but I don't think it will stay down. I find the scale to be such a mystery. I'm trying my best to acknowledge all the positive results of this Challenge, so I will not let this mysterious drop in weight go by without a "Cheer!".

    My DS has been home all week with a cold as well. Take care ladies!
