Victories: Getting exercise in (after 8pm) on a crazy day. Dinner was a super yummy hodgepodge that son Indiana Jones declared "the best dinner you've even made in your life, Mom."

Defeats: I'm not going to freak out about the cookie, it wasn't very big, but I didn't really need it. I didn't get enough water in.

Observations: Today was crazy for a variety of technical reasons. But between all the craziness and the inauguration coverage I was glued to all day, I'm pretty happy with my 2 miles. It helps that the weather has been so nice here... while Peggy Sue is excited about her snow (and I would be, too!) I'm pretty excited about 70F in the middle of January!

Exercise

• Wii Fit (boxing, step, balance): 45 minutes = 3 miles
  
• Shimmy (belly dancing): 30 minutes = 2 miles
  

Victories: Getting more exercise in (and holding baby Elvis for part of it). Not eating after dinner. Getting my water in.

Defeats: Having more than one cup of hot chocolate. Not enough veggies.

Observations: We finally had a good snow today (we've been waiting for years to get a good one), and hot chocolate was a wonderful treat coming in from the cold. I am not beating myself up for hot chocolate, just for too much of it. It was so nice to watch the snow fall. We don't get much snow, so this was exciting. I'm not doing all that well with food. Maybe it's just too much too handle to worry about exercise and food right now...I don't know. But I know if I stick with the exercise, the food issues will begin to resolve themselves. By the way, that Boston Cream Pie yogurt is sooooo good. I was so sore today from yesterday's exercise, so I took it easy with doing Wii Fit and belly dancing. Still a good workout though. And I never did put on my pedometer.
