    Just for today I will:
    1. Body Pump followed by Step Aerobics at 8:30am
    2. Eat under my calorie goal
    3. Focus on enjoying Easter lunch tomorrow without guilt. However, only lunch! No all day binge!

    P.S. I didn't make my bonus goal of shampooing the bedroom carpet yesterday but I DID de-winterize my wardrobe and I donated tons of shoes.

    Just for today:
    1. Do good on cals :)
    2. 3+ pints water/tea :)
    3. Exercise 30 min :):) Big long walk along the lake plus some sit-ups etc.
    4. School stuff organized :o This one is happening today for sure
    5. Get thru cleaning day more cheerfully :):) Done

    Have a super day everyone!

    Just for today:
    1. Stick to cals and prepare mentally for being surrounded by food
    2. 3+ pints water/tea
    3. Exercise 30 min
    4. Organize!

    Does anyone know anything about that "Eat More to Weigh Less" idea of not eating less than your BMR--I know there is a big group on MFP but I was wondering if any of you doing it?

    Have a super Saturday!!!!!

    Saturday (4/4)

    Well, yesterday was an epic fail...didn't track my food, ate junk food and just couldn't stop, and went home from work and hit the couch instead of the gym. Rather disappointed in myself actually. But today is a brand new day!!!

    Just for today, I will:
    1. Log my food honestly
    2. Drink 80 oz of water
    3. Exercise or yoga (some type of activity) for 30 minutes
    4. Be grateful with no complaining!
    5. Enjoy quality time with my granddaughter who is coming for a sleepover tonight.

    Just for Today 4/03
    1. log everything :)
    2. 30 mins cardio :)
    3. enjoy a dinner out :)

    Just for today 4/04

    1. Overcome the "weekend attitude" - This goal helped me through last week
    2. use time alone to get the house clean, maybe even the floors :open_mouth:
    3. Try to stick to 10k steps and not go over too much - sounds odd, but everything I've read said the body needs one day of rest, so today is the day
    4. log everything

    I know nothing about that. However, I have been sticking to just my allotted 1200 cals for the past 3 weeks, exercising and losing a pound a week. I read a thread about eating exercise calories and several people explained that MFP already sets you at a deficit so you can eat them. Most people eat about 75% of theirs. Sooo I decided to try it. I lost 3 lbs this week. It's not really scientific, but I'm a lot happier because I can actually eat :)

    Just for today...

    I will plan for a better tomorrow.
    Focus on planning better than I have instead of winging it and feeling deprived.
    Remember that I not in a race and not think as much about this weight loss journey.

    Goal for tomorrow: very low Cals breakfast and lunch. Vigorous cleaning for one hour. Only put things on my plate that I know are worth the calories. Go big on the salad, Vegies and fruit. Normal size helping of dessert-one normal or two tiny. God help me stay away from the rolls my sister makes
    I have done 20 minutes of walking yet

    First time to post here. Would like to lose 50 pounds! I'm quite skeptical about it. Sigh, well, here goes! For today, which is fast passing by!... I will do some stretching! I actually have some other things I would like to do that would burn more calories, and I will put them on my maybe list. However if I can even just do the stretching for example some restorative yoga poses, I will be happy. In the past "over goaling" has been an issue. Am peri-menopausal, and metabolism machine seems to be broken! I gain weight just breathing air! Anyway, will try again!
