Accountability Check #16

I'm ready for more accountability! First, let me prove that I did actually get something done lately: Crafting: I think I'm about halfway done with the purple shrug now.
The dress is coming along nicely, too. I've got 1 1/2 more pattern repeats of the first skirt panel till I move on to the second.
My first Hug for the Snuggles Project is about 2/3 done now.
I started another sweater. A top-down raglan.
Horus has been started over in a new color.
And, I've started another shawl prototype.
Health: I'm going to start listing what I'm doing to get healthy in these posts. I'm having a very difficult time, so I hope you all will keep me accountable and help me form healthy habits! Breakfast: Nutri-Grainâ„¢ bar Lunch: oatmeal Exercise: 10 minutes yoga Goals: - I'm really going to push myself to remember my Accountability posts each day this week. - Tonight I am going to record my podcast. - I will stop eating for the day at 8pm tonight. Keep me accountable!
