Pretty good for two days after Thanksgiving! This week I played soccer on Sunday and one game of racketball on Monday but not much else. I’ll need to go on a bike ride in the morning to get a good start on the week.

This week I did a game of soccer and 1 one intensive ab exercise class. I did a little journaling of my food. I think my dip in weight may be due to the fact that it’s just before TOM. I am hoping that it’s the result of 10 weeks of increased exercising. Good things I did this week included 2 days of having a smoothie for lunch (about 400 calories) and one day of having a salad for lunch. I guess this week will tell the tale. I have to do better with getting 150 minutes of exercise in.

This week I did 1 game of raquetball, 1 yoga class and one intensive ab exercise class. I did a little journaling of my food. This ended the 10 weeks of the group exercise challenge, so I have to see if I can continue to do the level of exercise I was doing during the challenge.

This week I did 2 yoga classes and one intensive ab exercise class. But I also ate a lot of cookies and chocolate, so no surprise here. I have to go back to journaling my food.

I joined an exercise team at work—our goal is to exercise 150 minutes each week for a total of 10 weeks. So I played raquetball three times this week and I’ve gotten in at least 150 minutes of exercise in for the past 3 weeks. I’m not down so drastically in pounds but my waist and thighs and hips are 1 inch less. So cool!

Wish I could say that things were kicking in, but the secret to my weight loss this week was to catch the flu and stay sick in bed for a day.
