- This check-in is for January 19th – 25th.
- I was doing fairly well this week until I hurt my back again. Winter is the worst time for my back, and it’s been so very cold. It’s supposed to warm up a bit over the next several days, and I’m hoping that continues into February when I’ll be trying to accomplish the Taji 100.

- I got a lot of exercise this week, though not in the form of walking. I’ve been decluttering room by room and reorganizing what I’ve decided to keep. I’ve decided to part with nearly 500 items, filling up several boxes and a couple of bags. Nearly everything is going to donation, except for the few things I’ve come across that weren’t suitable and needed to be trashed.

- I haven’t done much this week thanks to hurting my back trying to help my boyfriend shovel the driveway on Monday so I could get my car out. I didn’t think I had overdone it, and I felt fine (just tired) after I was done. However, by the next morning I was in too much pain to do anything for several days.

#FitReaders Check-In
- This check-in is for December 29th – January 4th.
- In addition to New Year’s Day, I also had the rest of the week off from work. I took that time to begin another, but more aggressive round of decluttering. While I was getting rid of items I no longer wanted, I realized that the way my office was arranged wasn’t working for me. I thought it was due to all of the clutter, and while that was part of the problem, it wasn’t the entire problem. Once I rearranged a couple of pieces of furniture, the space is much more functional and feels more open.
- Since decluttering and rearranging/reorganizing took up a lot of my time, I didn’t do much else other than update my fitness goals and decide to get back on the Galveston diet.

#FitReaders Check-In
- This check-in is for December 15th – 28th.
- I did a lot of walking while I was visiting family in Arizona! I also did a lot of relaxing and enjoying sweets and foods I no longer eat on a regular basis.
- Because I was traveling and didn’t have access to my computer, this post is for the past 2 weeks of activity. It’s also my last FitReaders post of the year, and I’ll be back in 2025 with updated goals! Until then, have a happy New Year!

- I’m fully enjoying the holiday season now and am out of my funk! I got all of my Christmas shopping done, found a few more decorations to put up around the house, and I’ve been watching Christmas movies while drinking hot chocolate and keeping a fire crackling a long in the fireplace.

- I’ve been trying to get into the holiday spirit, but, thanks to my back, I’m struggling. I finally got the Christmas decorations up yesterday, and I’m reading a couple of Christmas-themed books, but nothing is helping me get out of this funk I’m in.

- I was in Texas for most of this week having a great time with family and friends for Thanksgiving. I ate way too much food, most of it not very healthy, and I am OK with that!

- I’m sick AGAIN, but this time it seems to be a stomach bug. Whatever it is, I need to be over it well before Thanksgiving because I’m not sticking to the BRAT diet during the holidays.
