    My goals for the next week are:

    1) Keep with the exercise routing b/c I work 2 jobs and in the next 7 days both have overtime AND my choir is starting rehearsals up. That means gone from 5-6am to 9-10pm every day.

    2) Eat healthy for the same reason as number 1. Normally, I would do fast food btwn jobs/rehearsals. I might pack 2 of the 3, often 1 of the 3 meals. My goal is to pack all 3 meals before leaving for work each day. I've done this a couple of times. It takes a LOT of planning.

    So there you have it. Food and exercise! :flowerforyou:

    My goal is to pack all 3 meals before leaving for work each day. I've done this a couple of times. It takes a LOT of planning.

    Yes it does! I plan out my meals the night before so I have time to fanaggle and flip foods around in and out of the menu to get the right combination for the day. When I throw things together on the fly, I end up way over my cals. Good luck with your upcoming busy schedule!

    My goals for this week are to continue sticking to my cal goal. We have the hubby's company picnic on Saturday and I work Sat/Sun nights. I'm going to eat within reason at the picnic (since I can't pre-plan that), but I may have to workout if I need to to stay under my cal goal.

    My goals for this week is to continue exercersing everyday and healthy food choices. I've seen a difference! :) This evening we are having a potluck for a nurse that is leaving (you know how nurses don't bring healthy food), so I'm going to stay focused and if there is no good choices, I'll buy my lunch in the cafeteria (salad or something).

    Happy mid-week everyone!

    yesterday i started on my weight loss journey AGAIN for the MILLIONTH time since I started on my weight loss journey back in 2002/2003.

    I started with the basics:
    -measured food
    -count calories
    -stayed within calorie range of 1200 calories I ate lower than that over 1100 I will post what i ate yesterday on here.
    -exercise: walking...that will be my main exercise from September 22 - September 26. If I do additional exercise that will be a BONUS!!! did 60 mins of walking yesterday.
    -drank 64 oz h20
    -wrote down everything ate and drank.

    after i am done with myfitnesspal i'm headed downstairs to start my morning of making coffee and breakfast

    Trace - congrats on the loss this week!

    Denise - Thank you so much for taking on the task of keeping our list updated. I also noticed you corrected my weigh-in. Thank you! :flowerforyou: .

    I'm not sure what's going on with me, but I think I totally missed my weigh in last week. I was really busy on Friday and I think I just forgot about it. I won't forget tomorrow though, I'm really looking forward to my weigh in.

    My goals for this week are to cut out all the eating out I've been doing, drink my water, and walk a minimum of 30 minutes each day. I'm on my 3rd day of walking and I'm already at 1.3 miles. :bigsmile: As embarrasing as it is to admit, today will be my first day not eating out in a LONNNNNGGGG time, provided I don't stray for dinner (which I'm pretty confident that I won't)

    I'm feeling weak today. I am so craving sweets! So far I've resisted the temptation, but the single serving Skinny Cow chocolate peanut butter ice cream in my freezer is calling my name. So is the Golden Graham Marshmallow bar. Mmmm. :love: I worked out today, and even if I do eat both of those treats I'm under my cal goal. Already drank my 64oz for today, too. So why do I feel so hesitant/guilty about eating both?

    We had a semi-busy morning today and I didn't get a chance to weigh myself before I ate breakfast. I did weigh on Wednesday though and I was down 4 lbs from Monday. I must of had a LOT of water weight from camping at the beach over the weekend! I'll weigh again tomorrow morning BEFORE my husband's company picnic (Mmm free picnic-y foods), just in case my weight has changed again.

    Happy Friday!

    Good morning all,

    Went up to the hotel gym for about 1 hour this morning and did 30 minute on the bike and 20 minutes on the elliptical machine. I didn't have something to eat before the workout, and I won't be doing that again, b/c I do need the extra energy.

    Well, have some work training to do now, and them were checking in to a different hotel to be closer to D.C. and then doing a night tour of D.C. all lit up.

    Take care all, and keep pushing.
