Goals:

Don't spend $$$ at the Quilt Festival this week!

Achieved! Total spend over three days, less than $ 100.00. Even going w/ someone who spent $$$$. (I did that prior years!)

Work out 2 days > 40 min.s (Doesn't count walking or 'working.')

Not achieved. (40 mins total) Though I did do lots of walking...

Average < 1600 cals (trying to be realistic considering my plans!)

Average: 1638. Very close, but not quite.

Eat more vegetables & protein

Protein: good. Vegetables: Not so much

I won't have house guests next week, so I hope to do better.
