I will drink more water, at least 6 glasses but will aim for 8. Didn't quite make it today.
I will exercise at least 30 min. today. only did 30 min. on bike but did defrost my chest type freezer, and that was a lot of work!
I will stay within my calories (done)

1. Log Everything I eat and Pay Attention
2. Take a walk
3. Drink Hot Tea
4. Stay calm at work. I can do this and whining about it does not help anyone.
I really appreciate everyone here. Starting fresh each day is keeping me from dwelling on my slip ups and focusing more on what I can do better now.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Yesterday, 1/6
1. NO SODA TODAY!! This will be hard, but I am really going to work on stopping the diet soda. Did not drink any soda, but had hot chocolate instead. Not a good choice though, as it added 300 calories to my day, and I think led to binge eating at nite 
2. Drink MORE water! I already have drank 4 glasses! Off to a better start DId drink a lot of water
3. Log Every bit that I eat No - can't even remember what I ate!
4. Attempt to do at least 20 minutes on the ellipitical! Our unheated patio room is cold where I keep our ellipitical, but while getting dinner ready tonite, need to get out there!!
5. Do not get discouraged! The weight did not come on overnite, it won't come off overnite. Persistence!
Yesterday was NOT my best day. Way overate in the evenings - started out with just one bowl of ice cream, which led to another bowl, a small bag of chips, almonds. So upset with myself. But -- today is a fresh start.
SO... Just for today
1. DO not get discouraged. One day at a time. Do not let yesterdays eating turn into another day of mindless eating.
2. Look for a low - calorie item on the menu when eating out tonite with my friend. We are eating at a Mexican Restaurant - so choose something healthy.
3. Drink water
4. Walk around the mall to get in my walking after eating out tonite.
Good luck to everyone! It is so bitterly cold here - I will be so happy when it starts to warm up! Even our patio room, where I keep my ellipitical is 20 degrees! (its 12 degrees outside 0 -

3. Remember that it took me 2 1/2 years to gain 40 pounds, it'll take more than 3 days of working out to lose it....not to mention the other 40....0 -
I love this idea. I need to get back on track this year. On January 5 I began to concentrate again on eating right. My motto was "One day at a time." So 2 days of good eating, logging and exercising. Today, so far so good. I don't have time to write my goals for today but I want to come back to this.0

I would LOVE to join in! I need the support and accountability - when I am sitting alone in the evening or restless at home, its too easy for me to 'grab' something and not be accountable. I am currently coming off recovery from surgery, so I have not been able to work out for almost a month. Its been difficult and I am noticing the weight in my clothes and around my tummy.
- Just for today, I will only drink tea or water this evening after dinner. NO EXCUSES!!!0 -
Hmm ok just for today:
1. I will STOP beating myself up over the extra weight
2. I will just push PLAY and get it done!
3. I will stick to my eating plan (and quit thinking I'm hungry when I'm not)0 -
What a fantastic idea!
Just for today:
1. I will make sure to log any item that goes in my mouth, no matter how small
2. I will be positive about the changes that I am making
3. I will do 60 mins of Zumba and love how hard it is0 -
Love this!!!
Just for today!
1.log everything
2. 8 glasses water
3. Focus on health not weightloss0
I think I snuck some nuts here and there
Working on it
