    Yes. How about Sunday? Does that work?

    Ladies -
    If you want me to keep track of a weekly weigh in just provide me with your start weight (Sunday 9/21) and goal weight for December 21st. I'll keep a spread sheet. I was also thinking about posting our mood when we check in. I find it has a lot to do with what/when I eat. Just some ideas to mix it up. How about something if we meet our goal? How about finding something new to try? a healthy food, a new workout. Any suggestions?

    KRISTEN - Sorry I spelled your name wrong. :wink: Yes, start the new topic on Sunday. :drinker:
    Also my start weight when I started this journey was 191.8 and I will post my current weight
    on Sunday Sept. 21st.
    My ticker weight is 168.0 and that is what I am working to get back to that weight. I will not change my
    ticker until I reach that weight again.
    Emotion is playing a big part in my gain right now. A very good friend of mine is in Palliative care
    and I have been eating good but also eating junk because I feel so bad for her and I am comforting myself. :brokenheart:
    So, as of today no more cookies and donuts to comfort myself and getting back on track. :grumble:

    Thanks for taking the time to do this, I am with you on this. It can only makes us more
    accountable.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? No, didn't track the rest of the day. :grumble:
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Probably not
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? On my bike and did 11 miles
    What would I have done differently? Not ate that cookie last night, and not had Chinese after visiting my
    friend in he hospital.
    What is today's personal goals? Get my exercise in this morning, track everything, drink water, and get
    back on track.

    Mon - Walking 3.9 miles
    Tues - Strength w/weights 60 min.

    Honestly, Kristen. What I really like about this thread is the simplicity of it. It keeps us accountable, etc. I like that we can support each other and cheer each other on, etc. And, yet... I like that it does not have an expectation of doing this or that. No requirements. Just keeping it simple. I don't mind a weight chart if y'all want to. But, please let's not make it like one of those groups.

    I like that anyone can just join in whenever they want. I like that it is on the Message Boards instead of in Groups.

    Thank you so much for starting these every season. And, doing this. I told myself a few weeks, ago, that I need to stay out of the Groups as they don't seem to be working for me and then I just feel bad if I don't reach my goal or if I don't stick with it. Also, I told myself to come back here to your thread and just keep up with Daily Check-In... here. Y'all are all so nice and interesting. I appreciate everyone who posts in your threads.

    Thank you, again.
    Linda
