I am very proud of myself this week.

First, my WI on Monday……I stayed the same.  I totally expected that due to Tom.

I have been eating very good all week and did not cave too badly.  When I did cave into something that I wanted, I found either an alternative or I did have what I wanted and made sure that I journaled every morsel.

Journaling……I journaled everything!  I am good at it anyway, but this time every BLT.

 Exercise……this is the department that I have a hard time with.  Honestly, the best thing to happen was getting my hubby to bring that elliptical up to the bedroom for me.  I have been using it almost every other day since he brought it up there and I am able to do it for 30 mins!!!  I have also been incorporating the strength training in there.  This area has been hard on me this time around.  I am not able to do what I love due to my knee.  I am not sure if this is going to be a permanment thing or hopefully just until I get it stronger.  I miss doing the firm, but my knee is not stable enough to get on that box.  But anyway back to what I was saying…..this has been the hardest adjustment for me.  To try and figure out another way of getting cardio in, without tearing the ACL again. 

No matter what it is, you can always find an alternative…..it may take a while and it might take trying different things, but there is always another way.
