    Good morning everyone! I met my goals yesterday! Yay! Not so hard right now since most of them aren't weight loss related-- just recovery mode related. I'm feeling a lot better, but I'm not sure I"m ready for today. I will be out of my room from 9:30 to 7:15. No time for a nap so here are my goals.

    1. Find a little time to relax somewhere. It's going to be a hard day on my still recovering body.
    2. Fluids. Water.
    3. Homework in between classes. Still playing catch up.

    Have a good day everyone!

    Monday 10/4 goals
    1.)Be productive at work. Get things done that need to be done so I am not stressing over the same thing tomorrow.--I WAS SOMEWHAT PRODUCTIVE BUT NOT LIKE I SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

    2.)Exersice before I go to bed. DID NOT DO THIS, I WAS AT THE HOSPITAL TOO LONG.

    3.)Find time to make it to the hospital. My buddy wont be here physically ver much longer. Tragic accident. He struggled to survice for over 2 weeks. It's just been to much on him. I have said everything I've needed to say to him, but I still feel like I need to see him everyday. Pray his family finds peace. He is only 30. His parents and grandparents are having one hell of a time. ***DONE.

    Today, 10/5/2010

    1.) I will meet my goals
    2.) find time to walk, abs, weights, walk, abs, weights and walk again. Circuits are very calorie burning. AND I need stress relief.
    3.) Increase Water and Green Tea intake.

    So goals for Monday:

    1. Gym - DONE went this morning before work!
    2. More veggies with my meals! DONE - managed to basically just eat veggies for dinner with some noodles so that was good.
    3. Water water water. This is still such a problem for me. NOT QUITE DONE - I definitely increased my water but I don't think I had enough.

    Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a good Tuesday. Only a couple more hours before work is over for the day but not sure I can wait that long! I went training this morning and am feeling so tired! Definitely a rest day for me tomorrow.

    Given that Tuesday is almost over I'll post my goals for Wednesday...

    1. WATER!
    2. Stay within cals to 1200 as I won't be exercising.
    3. Be a bit more productive at work! I have soooo much work to do but don't seem to have accomplished that much the last day or two.

    Glad to see everyone is doing so well. Keep it up!

    Good evening all,

    1. Stay within my cals - nope
    2. Do at least 30 mins exercise - 40 mins on exercise bike
    3. Make wise food choices - nope, hence the reason I am over on cals.

    I will keep the same goals for tomorrow.

    1. Riverwalk with friend---We walked a little over half of it.
    2. Doc appt for me. Hoping to get referral to an endrocronologist. DONE
    3. water DONE
    4. day 2 of shred. FAIL
    5. kitchen---I have my son working on it right now.:)

    So I over did the shred yesterday. My legs have decided that they don't want to support me right now. I can't even walk in my house without holding on to the wall. I'm so sore that even though I took painkillers I still am in alot of pain and I have a high pain tolerance. So I decided not to do the shred today and I will not be doing any exercise tomorrow.

    I have my son working on the kitchen because he got in trouble at school today and grounding him just doesn't seem to really work so I put him to work this time. He kicked a kid who made him mad with something the kid said. He's 7 he knows thats not how you take care of things like that.

    Goals for Tomorrow

    1. Water
    2. Rest
    3. Make some jewelry (good way to make sure I stay off my legs a good portion of the day.) :)

    I don't really have time to respond individually, but I do see that everyone is doing a great job trying to stay accountable and on track with their goals.
    Here's my Tuesday's recap.
    Tuesday-
    1. Clean eating all day (this means no potato chips or pop).
    2. continue abs and push ups.
    3. Workout after the doctor's office.
    4. go for a walk in the afternoon or do another video.

    1. failed....I had a pop and snuck a few of my daughter's chips off her plate....BAD, I know.
    2. yes and yes, not as motivated to do the push ups, probably because they are still really tough to do
    3. failed....I was at the dog gone doctor's office for over 2 hours. It was the time that I had allotted for both the doctors and the gym and I had to stay on schedule.
    4. I did go for a 4.4 mile walk today. it felt awesome. the night is not over yet, I still may do a video.

    So For Wednesday-
    1. finish off all the fruits and veggies. Whatever fruit I don't finish, pack it for my healthy snack on the train.
    2. try to organize the house. it looks like a train wreck (cheap pun).
    3. go to zumba and do 30 minutes of cardio after.
    4. limit myself to one diet soda a day so I don't feel like a failure when I drink one. its much better than the 3 to 5 I used to drink daily.

    I decided to pack exercise equipment that I can use. Resistance bands, jump rope, a beach ball (to do crunches on like a stability ball) I deflated it so it takes up virtually no room in the suitcase. I also have a 5 pound weighted ball thats awesome, its coming with me too. There are lots of hills and great places to hike, I'm really looking forward to that part of the trip.

    There are a few things that I have to pack last minute like tolietries, hrm, digital food scale, phone charger, etc. otherwise, packing is all done.

    Everyone have a nice night. I'll check in tomorrow night.
    Leela.

    Good Afternoon everyone!!!

    Hope everyone is having a good day. Ravyn, that sounds painful. Hope you are feeling better tomorrow! Staying off of them and resting them is a good idea through tomorrow.

    I did fairly well yesterday although I did not find any time to relax. It was a crazy busy day and I couldn't sleep last night so I'm exhausted. But goals for today are:

    1. Homework, homework, homework! I have a quiz and an exam tomorrow. :(
    2. Get to bed as soon as possible after my THON meeting.
    3. Water!

    I'm feeling soooo much better but still a little exhausted and weak so for now, walking to classes and meetings are my only exercise. Plus, it's homecoming week so I don't have much time anyway.

    Have a good one!

    Well my goals for yesterday were kept except the walking part. It was too cold outside and my treadmill died. So instead I did steps, weights, abs, squats.

    My goals for today 10/6/10:
    Water baby!!!
    Eat more than I have been
    When I get home from work-laundry, laundry, laundry.

    Good evening everyone,

    How are we all today? The weather has been quite warm today for a change....

    Had a bad couple of days and today is no better. I will post 3 goals on here tomorrow for the weekend and hopefully stick to them. I would set goals for tomorrow but it's my mum's birthday tomorrow and I don't think I would hit my goals if I set any.

    Keep up the good work everyone and have a good, happy Friday!
