BUT with protein bumped back up to 120g per day, I SHOULD see I'm eating fewer total fat calories. Maybe that'll help--we shall see.

Mern ~ I really hope this plan works for you. I've also been thinking about "lifestyle" calories. For me, I'm working out how many portions in each group & then to make sure it adds up to a good amount Kcaloric wise. Nutrition is quite a mosaic of portions, Calories & timing, isn't it?!

I like the life/home goals -- I'm thinking about adding this later. You have lots of gusto!

I guess that means my number one goal this week is to not get sick!

Please do not get sick :( I was sick last week -- not fun.

I told Tori that my goals were going to be a "theme" this week. I figured since we do so much counting here I would use The Count. ;)

If planned on slacking this week... yes. So I had to do more than 3 b/c I'm going to rock the house!

Just rolling out of bed at nearly 10:00!! Wow. That's the first time that I've slept in (seriously) in maybe 5 years. School was cancelled, said goodbye to husband, cranked the electric blanket and fell back to sleep. Amen to the coffee IV. ;)

The internet was spotty all weekend due to extremely cold temps. on Saturday and freezing rain/ice storm yesterday into today. Now, we're getting a blizzard on top of all of the ice. Good day to hibernate and, for the first time in awhile, I have little to do. It's amazing how much I can accomplish when there is no football to watch on the weekends! :)

Lizzie,
I'm with you. Weekends are my biggest downfall. I'm stellar all week, and then it's like I just don't care on weekends. Since the first of the year, this has resulted in a "Push Me/Pull You" effect; loose 2 pounds during the week, gain it back on the weekend with a net loss of zero for the new year. I really have to keep my head in the game when Friday rolls around.

On to goals, Monday-Friday:

1. Calories at or below 1200.
2. 80 oz of fluids, minimum.
3. Take vitamins.
4. Limit bread.
5. MINIMUM 3 fruits and veggies a day.

Congrats to all of you who kept your head in the game all weekend!! You're my hero! I really have to start doing the same.
