    I'm so glad I found this post! I think this will really help me. I'm having a hard time this month for many reasons.

    Monday:
    1. Track all food
    2. Get my 10,000 steps in
    3. Drink all my water today
    4. Plan a healthy dinner

    I managed to do all my Monday's goals. I could have had a bit more water, but overall, pretty good.

    Tuesday:
    1. NOT eat the pizza and mini-chocolate bars at my work's training today - eat the healthy lunch I packed instead!
    2. Drink all my water today
    3. Get my 10,000 steps in and go to Zumba tonight
    4. Think positive thoughts about my weight loss journey and be kind to myself today

    Writing my daily goals down here is really helping with accomplishing them :smile:

    My commitments for today
    1) Work out on the elliptical
    2) Eat only when hungry (no bored eating!!!)
    3) Stay within 1200 calories
    4) Go for an hour walk this evening
    5) Stop feeling crappy about my weigh in this morning. The temporary weight gain is water weight due to TOM. It will go away soon. Cheer up!

    @OConnell5483 -- Congratulations!! TWINS - how exciting!

    I've been missing getting on here - the past 2 weeks have been so crazy busy, and by the time I get on here, its the end of the day and I'm ready for be (other than lurking!). So since the day is almost over, my goal is simple for today:
    1. Get on here first thing in the morning to post my goals!!

    But I have been eating so much healthier, and getting to the gym almost everyday. It is amazing how much better I feel when I eat healthy, and get in the exercise, and water. Still not doing so great on water though, but that will also be tomorrows goal.

    Welcome all new posters! Yes, what I think works for me is to post my goals, but then get on here to say how you have done. You know, -- its being accountable to someone!

    Congrats to you guys on meeting all your goals!
