    Welcome to the newbies and hello all my pals. My name is Steph. I am 28 and living in the DC metro area. I am glad for this challenge because it probably keeps me the most accountable. Plus, the people on this thread are really encouraging and lovely women :o) Okay, so...we're going to kick it up a notch in February! Less days to get things done and I have slacked off the last week of January. Snow is apparently my enemy. I did the same thing last year :o(

    2.1.11 Goals:
    1) WATER - eh
    2) If I'm not bowling tonight, I really need to make it to the grocery store - FAIL
    3) If I am bowling, no beer! - FAIL

    So last night I got suckered into going to the bowling alley to cheer and since there was not much for me to do I drank beer and was the dealer for poker. LOL

    2.2.11 Goals:
    1) WATER
    2) Power 90
    3) One load of laundry at least.

    2. Drink 6-10 cups of water, depending on if I go over on salt - Just barely, but did it!
    3. Fit in at least 15 minutes of some type of exercise - Unless I count some of the walking I did at work, no such luck. :ohwell:
    4. Get to the bank and post office - Yep!
    5. In bed by 11, unless job #2 keeps me out later than that - On my way as soon as I finish this post!
    2-3-2011 goals
    1. Stay within calorie, carb and fat goals
    2. Drink 6-10 cups of water, depending on if I go over on salt
    3. Do day 2 of "200 sit-up challenge"
    4. Get to the gym
    5. WRITE THE STUFF FOR MY GRAD SCHOOL APP!!! (This is actually higher priority right now than the gym. I should have had it done about a month ago and if I don't do this soon, then I could really be messing things up for myself.....)
    6. Figure out something to do with chicken leg quarters.....

    It is--and I really build up some muscle, too. I get to move 8-ft tall towers of plants and trees as the season progresses--makes me feel like I can do ANYTHING! LOL!'

    Goals for Feb. 2:
    1 Water.--Did really well at work but not so much once I was home!
    2. Stay UNDER (a little) my calories!--Yes.
    3. Exercise for 30 minutes.--No. Too worn out and sore from work.
    4. Meditate.--Yes.

    I am not going to worry about extra workouts besides work just yet. I think I will let myself get used to my new schedule and then add it back in.

    Goals for Feb. 3:
    1. Water--even at home!
    2. Stay under my calories.
    3. Meditate before bed.

    Have a good day, everyone!

    (It's the Chinese New Year! Beef and Broccoli for supper tonight!)

    Sorry I didn't post goals yesterday. Yesterday was a blur, I barely remember anything. So I will post today's goals:

    Thursday's goals:
    1. try to eat more solid foods as tolerated.
    2. maybe go to the gym, if the roads are clear, if not, workout from home.
    3. try to drink water.

    Yesterday's Goals:
    1) Do the Laundry! (I have to get to it sometime this week...)
    2) Devote an entire hour to playing with my son (probably teach him a new word if he'll let me)
    3) Hydrate - Drink 5 bottles of water!

    I got the laundry on the wash, but then totally forgot about it. I have to run it again today. *sigh*
    I hadn't realized just how out of shape I was until I actually did devote an entire hour and a half to just playing with my son. He's 18 months old and he's all over the place. Apparently I'm his new favorite jungle gym and I'm almost certain that I burned off more calories doing that than anything else I've done all week. I just don't know how to put that into my exercise log, so when I went a bit over yesterday on my calorie count I figured it was alright for just that day.
    I drank 4/5 bottles of water, better than the day before, but still not on target. I'll get there.

    Today's Goals (2/3):
    1. Finish my Online Class assignments!
    2. Walk 2+ Miles
    3. Drink 5 Bottles of Water

    1. Stay within calorie, carb and fat goals - JUST BARELY!! I would have gone over on carbs if it weren't for my 8 minutes from sit-ups.
    2. Drink 6-10 cups of water, depending on if I go over on salt - No. :ohwell:
    3. Do day 2 of "200 sit-up challenge" - Yep! :smile:
    4. Get to the gym - No.....
    5. WRITE THE STUFF FOR MY GRAD SCHOOL APP!!! (This is actually higher priority right now than the gym. I should have had it done about a month ago and if I don't do this soon, then I could really be messing things up for myself.....) - No. :grumble: Starting to get rather annoyed with myself on this one.....
    6. Figure out something to do with chicken leg quarters..... - Done. Found a few slow cooker recipes that say any chicken will work. Here's hoping that's true!

    2-4-2011 goals:
    1. Stay within calorie, carb and fat goals
    2. Drink 6-10 cups of water, depending on if I go over on salt
    3. Do some type of cardio
    4. START grad school writing..... (Cause apparently getting them completely done is too much for me to ask of myself.... Also hoping this is a case where getting started is the toughest part!)
