    So I haven't been posting any goals lately and that has to change! I think my problem has been that I am top tired. I a, going to really work on getting to sleep.

    SO MY GOALS FOR TODAY ARE:

    Get 20k steps (already have 93k in and plan in going for a long walk)
    Go to sleep by 9pm ( :#. I've been going at 1130)
    Drink 4 cups of water (low but it's a start)
    Eat 2 servings of veggies and at least 1 serving of fruit (I like veggies better than fruit)


    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! KEEP PUSHING!

    Hello! I am new and looking for a jump start. I plan on drinking 8 cups of water, which is HARD for me since I rarely ever drink water.
    stick to a 1200 calorie diet and do at least 30 min of HIIT.

    A few years ago I was drinking a water so rarely. ( about 3 cups a day) And that was realy big problem for me. Then my friend decided to help me. When I drink coffe he brings cup of water, when I watch TV he brings cup of wather... In the begining it was very hard to drink wather so many times , then becomes a habit for me. Now I drink wather 6-9 cups a day. Hope you can do it too.

    1. Already did my run.
    2. I want to make sure I make it over to my sister's house while it's still hot out so I can get in the pool. (It's almost 90 today.) I mostly just goof around in the pool - not true exercise - but it's still activity. B)
    3. Still need at least 3 more fruits and veg for the day to make my quota.

    Today's goals

    - Eat between 1200-1300 calories -> Succes! (If I don't eat anymore today)
    - Weigh everything! -> Eh, I didn't weigh my apple.. But I'm fairly sure it was just 100 grams (a very small apple), weighed everything else though!
    - Eat healthy and be happy about it instead of craving snacks -> Finally succeeded at this... The clue seemed to eat breakfast later, be active and busy throughout the day and eat more often after 2 PM (something small every hour)..
    - Eat 2 portions of fruit and three portions of vegetables. -> Big succes today, yay
    - Get 10,000 steps -> Already on 11,000 and I still need to walk the dog for a second time.
    - Stop eating after 8 PM -> Have to wait and see for this one!

    First good day after a long week of binge-eating...

    @MissFlawed

    Great job with your goals! You sound proud and you should be.

    How'd it go after 8pm? Did you succeed?

    Goals for the week
    #1 atleast 8,000 steps/day
    #2 8 gasses of water/day
    #3 eat less than 1,500 calories/day
    #4 get 30% of calories from protein

    Number 1 is going to take some effort but is doable.
    Number 4 is something I was doing earlier this year and the weight was flying off. I'm hoping that will get me out of my rut.

    I've cut up and portioned out 3 servings of vegetables for each day of this week, weighed my popcorn into servings for the week, filled my med cassette with my multivitamins and allergy med, and have my clothes picked out and ready for the week.
    Let the week begin!

    WOW! This sounds amazing! You sound very organized! How are you doing with this so far? I see 3/4 on Monday. That's GREAT! And how'd Tuesday and Wednesday go?

    What's your f/v quota? Maybe I can inspire to get there.

    The pool was nice and refreshing!

    My quota is only 5 total, but it can be any combination of fruits and vegetables. I can have 5 fruits and no veg if I want, but usually I have more vegetables than fruits. Sadly, I only got 4 today and that's counting a serving of mushrooms as a veg, which is kinda cheating I think. I still have a few more calories left so maybe I'll go grab an orange before bed...

    P.S. You have amazing abs and arms! <3
