    Hi, R_Queenie! I'm three-days old and definitely need help. I'm so hungry! I have none of the "good" foods here; just the full-fat, full-sugar, high-carb foods. I can't afford to replace all the bad stuff until they're used up, so I'm spending hours every day planning meals. My focus is on carbs, fat, and sugar, as I was recently diagnosed with Type II diabetes and put on insulin. However, I'm not getting enough calories or protein. I don't know what to do. Therefore:

    What 3 Things could you do to improve your life by the end of April?
    1. I want to make it to the end of April.
    2. I want my blood sugar (fasting and 2-hours post-meal) to be "normal," whatever that is.
    3. I want to get down to 184 pounds (I'm now 192.8).

    Linda

    Can I join? I haven't joined anything here on my fitness pal and I don't have any friends.
    1. Use the elliptical machine I bought at least 15mins EVER day. (Small goal but I have to start some where)
    2. Find a meal plan and stick to it.
    3. To genuinely accept that weight loss is a process and that it won't happen over night. And to not give up and go back to old habits when the scale doesn't move.

    Would love to have new people join the challenge group to focus on 3 Things in April. When you are starting a new healthy lifestyle it's easy to get overwhelmed...for this group you choose 3 Things to work on and report daily about those.

    Examples from past have been flossing, eat 5 fruits and vegetables, exercise daily, read, meditate, no f'bombs, share positives, share compliment with yourself. Really ....there is no wrong answer.

    If you'd like to find new friends and be supported in an active group - send me a message and I'll get you an invite!

    What 3 Things could you do to improve your life by the end of April?

    Great idea, I'd love to join if possible! My 3 things would be
    1. Drink more water
    2. Record in diary consistently
    3. Increase activity

    Sounds like a great idea to me.
    1. Walk three times a week.
    2. Lift weights three times a week. I've been very sedentary and I'm only beginning to find my motivational groove.
    3. Phone three friends a week. With all the social networking online I've found that I haven't seen or spoken to any friends in a long time. Good time to start reaching out and reconnecting :)

    Invites coming to all! The best news is...even if you are late joining April, you can easily stay in the group and participate in future months as well! Many people stick around for several months ---adapting their 3 things as times goes on. :D

    Hey there - love the goals you guys have come up with!

    If it isn't too late to join, my goals are:
    1. No sugary afternoon snacks - I will aim to eat a healthy, 150-200 calorie snack every afternoon that isn't chocolate or something else naughty :)
    2. At least 2 litres of water per day
    3. Go to the gym 3 times per week
