Good morning!

I mostly hit my goals yesterday. I went a little (<100 calories) over my goal, but that's from going out to eat and having dessert. So not too shabby.

Goals for today:
1. stay within calories
2. 12k steps
3. run (not sure what yet...)

    Good morning! Decided to change things up a little. I used to go to the gym at 5 am, go home shower then go to work. But now that I live on an acreage it just didn't work. But I realized we do have a shower at work. So this morning I was at the gym for 5:15 did cardio and then came to work and showered and dressed. Worked perfectly! So happy now I can get back to my regular routine and time slots.

    Today's goals:
    gym - done
    track everything
    stay within calories
    stretching
    water up

    Have a great day! B)

    I reached my goals yesterday. It sure feels good. Better than any food. Today's goals are-- stay in my calorie range, pilates (done), stationary bike at the Y after work. (that's hard for me-- after work) Also, drink more water. Have a fantastic day, everyone. : )

    Yesterday was a good day. Scale went down a little this morning. Today I am suppose to workout on my arms, but they are still sore from two days ago so I guess I will workout my legs again today and go on the bike for 30 minutes. I knew I was pushing the weights with my arms last time :)

    Good morning everyone!!!
    Yesterday was a nice rest day but I will admit I was a little to generous with the tortilla chips again and didn't measure my second serving. I owe this to being distracted by this crazy video game we are addicted too. Thank God it's just a rental and eventually we will have to return it ( we have extended the rental 2 times already :# )
    Plans for today include a good workout, water, protein, a small walk and more rest at night.
    Let's have a fabulous Wednesday!!!!

    202pinktogo. I love athleta winter weight but it depends on how hot you get. I am a warm weather runner. Also tj max had a lot of winter gear on sale to save money. And I wear ski socks to keep my feet toasty or marshalls too!

    Achieved my goals yesterday. To date my goals have been few and simple. I feel ready to add two more.

    1. 10,000 steps minimum
    2. No alcohol
    3. 40 fl.oz. water.
    4. Be mindful of what I eat (not ready for full weighing, measuring and logging yet so this is just a start)

    Yesterday I was able to hit my goals! Today, I was watching my grand kids while my daughter was in school. The morning jog was the only exercise plus some short strength training exercises.

    Being back at work has made it tougher to meet my goals, but trying to keep them simple. I also struggle with consistency, so hope this helps.
    My goals:
    -at least 48 oz of water
    -log everything
    -at least 10,000 steps

    Met these for 1/5--even when traveling and eating out!

    Hello, I am new to challenges and this looks like one I would like to join, I like that you select personal goal weights and the group is not dependent on the total lbs. lost. I lose very slowly and a group would not like to have me on their team and drag the percentages down.

    I hit my initial goal weight a couple of weeks ago (yeah me!) and have been trying to figure out what to do next. I could stay comfortably at this size, which has a little extra padding, but I decided I wanted to be the best I can be. This challenge may be just the motivation I need.

    I will set some goals for tomorrow:
    At least 20 minutes on elliptical before work
    At least 10k steps
    20 minutes of kettle bells
    64 oz water
    Log all food
    Only 1 glass of wine and only if it fits into calorie goal
    Figure out how to enter my weight on the spread sheet

    Hi all!
    I was exhausted today. I know it is because I am not eating enough. Im just not hungry. I had to push myself to eat 1200 calories.
    Goals for tomorrow:
    1. I will eat my protein grams.
    2. I will eat 1350 calories.
    3. I will walk 10,000 steps or go to the gym after work to get to that point.
    4. I will compliment 3 people at work and pay extra attention to 3 students.

    Only did good on half my goals yesterday. Got my 10000 steps and stayed under my pre-exercise calories. Indulged my sweet tooth a bit with some dark chocolate before dinner. I'm mostly disappointed I didn't get a workout in. Kids back in school and getting back into our routine has been a challenge. I have the same goals for today and am on track so far. I got a little workout in that wasn't as intense as I'd hoped, but at least I got one in.
