Getting Started....Again

namelesshere

Here I am again. This time at 255 lbs, less than my all time high but more than the last time I was here so here I am again, trying to undo the damage. My downfall is when I quit tracking. I have a sedentary lifestyle with an office job. Thinking of getting a fitbit as a motivator to get me to move. Treadmill sits quietly most of the time, waiting for action.

So, my goals for this week are:
to log faithfully every day.
To log my meals every day.
Drink at least 8 glasses of water
Walk 1 mile every day. (2500 steps)

Now that I stated it.... Hold me accountable, PLEASE.

Add your weekly goals.

Good goals! I find I used my exercise bike more when I set it in front of the tv. Even if you're going slow while you watch, it's better than nothing at all!

I also have a huge issue with logging, and my goals right now mostly involve not slacking off there. I don't have much to lose, but if you'd like one more cheerleader, feel free to add me.

I'm right there with you!!! I'm back at this again too, as of Friday.

Good goals!!! I've been wearing my pedometer so I try to go a little further each day. It's hard working in an office job when I even eat lunch at my desk!

Best of luck to you!!!

I know what you mean. I eat lunch in my car between jobs. Fortunately not enough time to stop at fast food restaurants even though I pass several. I did put the treadmill in front of a TV but usually am not a tv watcher. That might change if I find some good DVDS

Welcome back. I'm coming back to MFP myself. I'm riding ~210lbs right now (could be more, could be less, I'm really avoiding the scale as if it would make a difference). Within the last month I have started to walk on my lunch break, I can usually squeeze in at least a mile, depending on what I have going on. I have a treadmill & elliptical in my basement that I need to blow the dust off & use.

Baby steps! Good luck :bigsmile:
