    Friday:
    1. 12,000 steps :\ eh...close
    2. Enjoy Cuban dance practica! :D
    3. Eat well :)

    Saturday:
    1. 10,000 steps
    2. Swim hard!
    3. Keep the carbs under control! My kitchen is a bit bare right now, and it's harder to meet my goals when I don't have a lot of food to choose from.

    Yesterday I almost met my goals, I had 3 beers instead of 2 so not too far off. This morning I went for a quick 3 mile run. Today is my cheat day so my goal is to drink 100 oz water and log everything even though I will probably be over. Happy Saturday All!!

    Lovely positive thread Joan. I've been on MFP a few days and had a careless day today. This thread encourages us to forgive and start afresh.
    For tomorrow

    1. Weigh and record every morsel
    2. Get in the sea or go for a long walk or both
    3. Find alternative non sugary snack, no more highland shortbread

    Saturday's goals:
    - tune into stomach & real hunger levels
    - sensible eating over dinner. Portion control rather than pigging out
    - savour every mouthful I choose to eat, esp if it's wine

    Saturday was a disaster driven by me eating a whole tub if B &J ice cream.
    no excuses, just made a really bad choice.
    today is a new day.

    Just for today (3-15-14) (How do you just take out a little of an entire post and quote it?)
    1. Stick to my calorie allotment (will not be compensating by exercise :) )
    2. Drink my 3 pints of water/"free" liquids
    3. Do my exercise
    4. Do Happy things today because I will be home with my littles while hubby and olders are ice fishing--I need to stay in viewpoint that this day can be a treat of doing my own special something while they're away SO THAT I DON'T TURN TO FOOD! :#

    Yay! Did all four and got a nice project done, which is WAY more rewarding than the temporary pleasures of food. :)

    Just for today:
    1. Stick to my calorie allotment
    2. Drink 3 pints of water
    3. Exercise 20 min or more, which today should include a nice long walk outside!
    4. Try to eat more veggies

    First, thank you for this! I so need to be accountable everyday!
    1. LOG everything honestly!
    2. EAT consciously, and only when I'm hungry
    3. WORKOUT 4x/week
    4. STAY off the scale!

    Got my ball yesterday, and ran so many errands I got in 5,000 steps. Yay!!!

    I set my new weight goal as 175 lbs and have promised myself a cool pair of earrings when I get it.

    I'm purging my house of old vitamins and supplements and diet foods. Note to self: Vitamins work much better if you actually take them! I bought new ones yesterday.

    Today:

    Hit protein goal.

    Again, I thank you all. This thread and reading your comments is helping keep me motivated.
