Hey Dawn, I will be happy to start the thread on Mondays.. No problem... unless someone else beats me to it..Lol

I met all my goals again,
Managed to exercise 6/7 days this week.. my goal is 5/7
Also lost another 2 lbs.... brings me to 8 lbs since the Spring Challenge.

I'm still working on all the emtional ups and downs....

How's everyone else doing??

I have met all my goals !

walk 5 to 10 mins a day
drink 60 oz of fluids or more
get between 50 and 70 protein a day.

I was really hoping you'd forget this this week.  haha

1) Went over 1300 calories 2 days this week-I was really bad
2) Only exercised 2 days instead of 5
3) Still can only zip up the size 18 jeans with the help of laying on the bed
4) Instead of going down, I went from 201 1/2 on Wednesday to 205 1/2 today.  I lose weight fast but also gain weight fast. 

Goal for this week-no Mexican restaurants!!!!!

Sodium, Laura...it's all sodium!  You'll get it off in your next Zumba class! 

Some of it was the sodium for sure.  But a lot was just overeating. I ate enough chips that I was full when they brought the food and still I ate the food too.  I didn't eat it all but enough that I was uncomfortable.

I read about your week and glad you had a great week.  We finally get to meet on Saturday.  Yea!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey all, My goals were:
Bike a minimum of 30 minutes 3 x a week:  Exceeded
Weight train (resistance) a minimum of 4 X a week: met
Keep protein higher than carbs 5/7 days: made it 4/7.  I think this is an unreasonable goal while traveling because many of the food choices are out of my control since these are conventions and my protein sources are very limited.

So far so good: haven't been on a scale lately but I went "shopping" in my closet before I left for this trip and I am seriously considering not bringing home most of my clothes since they don't fit   LOL   Find a local salvation army and drop them off!

Okay, here are my goals.  I've done okay. 

1.  Journal what I eat everyday and report it to my partner, Laurakybelle - I've journaled 4/7 days this week, but I haven't sent them to Laura...was just to busy!
2.  Exercise 4 days a weeks for 30 minutes - Thanks to the beautiful weather this week, I've done that!
3.  Eat 60 grams of protein 5/7 days a week. - I did 4/7 days this week.  I need to learn what is high in protein.  I start my day off with a shake that has 14 grams, so I'm off to a good start.
4.  Get in 8 glasses of water 5/7 days a week - Did get this goal!  As long as I'm at work, I get my water in.  The weekends are the pits!

 I am so PROUD of you all!! I know I haven't been much of a motivator but you are all doing awesome!! Sandi is kicking my butt!!  Way to go girls!! KEEP DOING IT!! Im soooo proud!! can u tell?
lol
