I keep forgetting to post in my log in here. I've been keeping up with my daily posts in the challenge forum, but I should be posting in here, too! I feel pretty good about today.

My freaking biceps need it. Owwww. General Health: B My new thing is to drink my 32 oz water bottle twice at work. Plenty of hydration and added bonus: frequent bathroom breaks! Negative points for adding sugar free vanilla syrup to my coffee. Average: A-. I'm really proud of myself. It's been a week and I am still rocking it. I haven't lost momentum yet! I know, I know. Call me when I lose 40 pounds. But still, this is big for me!
