Evening all!

Haven't had time to come on here and post my goals but have been doing pretty well. Have stayed under on cals this week and worked out every day quite hardcore except today. Have a much needed rest day today. A bit late to post Friday's goals so going to post for Saturday.

1. Go to circuits in the morning and Combat after if I can handle it.
2. Do this job for work in the morning after training.
3. Lots of water. NO SLACKING just because it's the weekend.
4. Try and get to the cinema in the evening.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Hi All,

It's the weekend! Woo hoo! I did alright yesterday, the resting was tough but I managed it. . Actually I went up to London to see the Cirque du Soleil at the Royal Albert Hall. When we got there they had lost our booking and gave us a box to ourselves! It was one of the most beautiful things I've seen (the acrobatics not the box ). It made me really think a bit more about what sort of exercise I'm doing. Or would be doing if I didn't get tired going up stairs at the moment. Can't wait to see what out there to try.

Goals for Saturday:
1. Under calories - i have absolutely no excuse while I'm on maintenance level.
2. House work :grumble:
3. Water
4. Look for new recipes to try

Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

Hello Everyone~
Just started MFP on New Years Day. I have been allotted 1400 calories a day and have basically just been coming on and logging food, exercise and water. It's time to take it to the next level and join a thread! This one seems simple enough and I like the rules.
Quick intro-
I am a 39 year old female. I had major surgery last March and had a 3 level fusion in my cervical spine. (I am healing beautifully). I would like to loose 30 pounds. I find the hardest time for me for me is at night because I like to snack.
So my mini goals for today are;
drink 8 glasses of water,
stay within my caloric intake,
exercise 30 minutes minimum- thinking about skiing today, we have all this great snow

good luck today all~

TheNewJessieMae

Ugh. Today is Saturday and I still feel bad. It's been almost a week. I eat like crap when I feel like crap. BUT today I am going to the grocery store. __despite the snow___

grocery store is and eating well the rest of he day are my only goals since I don't feel well. Anything else is a bonus.

Goals for Jan. 7:
1. Water.--I've been doing well on this.
2. Stay in my calories.--Went over--UGH!
3. Exercise.--Yes
4. Vacuum my bedroom.--No
5, Meditate before bed.--Sort of--fell asleep while meditating.

Goals for Jan. 6:
1. Water.
2. Stay in my calories
3. Exercise
4. Meditate.

I really give this group the credit for all the water I have been drinking! Setting it as a daily goal helps a lot!

I'm a bit disappointed about going over on my calories yesterday but one day shouldn't hurt too badly and today is a new day!

Welcome Greerashley! Setting a few goals each day (even though they are usually the same!) has helped me focus on them a lot!

Jess--Hurry and get well!

Hello everyone!

I'm back after a few days. My goals are pretty much remaining the same. I'm doing great on water! Not so much on not snacking. And I have to go for a walk today to meet my exercise plans for the week! Hope everyone is doing well!

I was on track yesterday and then for some insane reason I just let it all go in the evening. I'm so annoyed with myself. Today is a new day and I WILL do it all today. If I manage it every day this week. I'm going to claim back some overtime at work and take this Friday afternoon off work to pamper myself.

Sunday's Goals:
1. Water
2. Under on calories
3. Walk
4. Early night

With all that in mind I'm off to for a walk.
Hope you're all having a great weekend.

Goals for Jan. 8:
1. Water.--Did good but probably should have had more.
2. Stay in my calories--Over again. Not too bad but still...
3. Exercise--Yes
4. Meditate.--Yes

It was a LONG day yesterday! Went a bit overboard celebrating the Seahawks' victory over the Saints but it was SUCH a good game!

They are calling for some light snow today. I was not here the last time we got snow (we don't get a lot here, as a rule) so, as long as we don't need to go anywhere today, a little snow might be nice!

Goals for Jan. 9:
1. Water.
2. Stay in my calories!
3. Exercise.
4. Meditate before bed.

I go back to work on the 31st. I can't wait! There are just too many temptations at home. Also my job is very active--and I just really, really like it!

1. Go to circuits in the morning and Combat after if I can handle it.
2. Do this job for work in the morning after training.
3. Lots of water. NO SLACKING just because it's the weekend.
4. Try and get to the cinema in the evening.

Gosh just realised I didn't post my goals for today. Those are my Saturday goals which I achieved (all except number 2)!

Today, Sunday I feel quite proud of myself. I went to Body Attack and Total Body Workout this morning which means that I've done 11 classes this week for a total calorie burn of 5,496 calories since Monday! By far a record for me but think I may lay off a bit for a couple of days so my body can rest and repair!

Saw the King's Speech at the cinema last night. Really great movie. Go and see it if you can and if it's up your street! Today had friends over for lunch so that was nice.

Anyway on to Monday's goals:
1. Lots of water.
2. Snacking on fruit only through the day.
3. Working at home in the afternoon so try and be productive and no surfing on MFP instead of working!
4. If I feel up to it go to Tri Class or Body Attack in the evening.

Hope you've all enjoyed your weekend!

Kim I love Cirque du Soleil (not that I can spell it)!! Glad you enjoyed it! How far do you live from London?

TeamLeela

So my Monday's goals are:
1. To workout before 10am, otherwise, it won't get done at all.
2. Take a healthy snack to avoid eating while I'm out.
3. Go to sleep before midnight.
4. Keep chugging.

1. Drink 1l water. (DONE)

Nam, its so beautiful isn't it? I live in Guildford in Surrey so about 40 minutes from Waterloo by train. Glad to hear you liked the Kings Speech. It looks excellent.

I'm home from work today. I can't seem to kick this bug so today's goals are going to be pretty basic:

Monday:
1. Water
2. Rest. Seriously, do nothing. Stay in bed so I can go back to work tomorrow.


Hope you all have a lovely day today.

Edit: Forgot to say I managed all my goals yesterday.

shnnd19

Okay I did really bad in on Friday nt & Sat Nt. Off to a fresh start today, thinking it's that time month is maybe why I'm having a hard w/ food.

This is going to be my new goal for Sat nt, not going to count my captain/dt but I can't eat after I start drinking.

Monday

stick to my calorie
exercise 30 mins
water

PSUgrl921

If I missed welcoming anyone... welcome!!

Goals for today:

1. Water!

It is snowing today. Just a pretty little snowfall. It's going to warm up and be messy for the rest of the week, though! We don't get much snow here, usually, and it gets icy really fast as our snow tends to be very wet!
