Awesome way to start off a Monday - great job!
I only count cleaning when I do the heavy-duty spring cleaning =/ so thats only like once a month or so.

I did my 30DS! I will be @ level2 this week!

Ok Miss Dee: Monday morning and I will do this. I am drinking water even as we speak (or type as it were).
I can track and drink, track and drink, track and drink, chooooo chooooooo I think I can I think I can I think I can0 -
My goal this week, I want to lose another pound, and add strength training to my exercise. not just what I do in JM 30DS circuit training. I want to lift heavier and lift til failure. I want to do this 3 times a week.
I can't believe I lost a pound while I was on vacation. I believe I was over my calorie goal everyday. But I did make it a point to exercise every day.
Have a great day everyone. Good luck on your challenges. We can do it!0 -
Suzanne, thank you honey! I'm so glad to see you! Let's really keep on each other this week!

Already did my 30DS this a.m, that's part of my goal.
Tonight is ZUMBA but I also want to get in a 30min walk today w/ my son (which I should do within the next hour or so! Keep it up everyone! 0 -
I got in 2 miles over lunch for 37 mins worked.
I was really hoping that overnight I would be so restless from eating so much yesterday that I would burn those extra calories. But I was still over 148 calories for the day. :sad:0 -
My Monday didn't do too well with the water however I did wonderful with the exercise. Got in a total of 96 mins with the PowerWalk DVD. Total of 6 miles throughout the day. Did 2 hours worth of cleaning however I am not going to count that as part of my exercise goal minutes. Need to find something other than the Powerwalk to do for exercise. Just have to get motivated to start in on a new DVD. Have a good night all.0

Hello all!
Hope everyone is doing well. I went over calories today (by 219). I ate way too much for dinner and I'm so full and I feel so stuffed. I was hungry all day, and just way over did dinner.
Tomorrow is a new day another chance.0 -

My goal today is to drink 10 glasses of water (I'm at 6 and it's 11:30am!), walk during lunch (20 mins) AND do aerobics tonight (20 mins).
My goal for today was to get over 8 glasses of water (been slacking on that) and to stay under calories. Made both! WOOHOO!0 -
Welcome to all the newcomers to this thread! I promise you'll love it here! We're quite the bunch.
Every lifestyle change has its moments and I can admit I had a week of reverting back to old habits and saw the scale reflect it. I'm reversing that trend this week! I'm making my own smoothies every morning for breakfast, found some DELICIOUS Healthy Choice meals for quick grabs for lunch and I have a ton of recipes to try once I actually get motivated and cook! It's going to be a great week!0 -
Fell off the wagon in a big way today! :grumble: :sad: :brokenheart: :sad:
Haven't had soda in quite awhile but today drank a bunch and ate fastfood for 2 meals basicly full days calories over lunch.
And to top it off no exercise:noway: :grumble: :noway: :grumble:
Well tomorrow is a new day!
Tomorrow IS a new day! We all have those moments!! Just vow to get back in the swing of things tomorrow!0 -
Well, I didn't meet any of my goals last week. But, I'm going to give it another shot. Here are my goals for this week:
1. Do at least 30 minutes of exercise each day from today until Monday (probably walking).
2. Do at least 2 homework assignments a day from today until Monday (finished a 12 page paper yesterday! I count that as two).
3. Stay at or below 1800 calories/30 exchanges every day until Monday (stuck to it yesterday).
4. Lose 2 pounds this week by Monday (I'm at 161.2 right now, so that would put me at 159.2).
I would say stay away from junk food again, but that just seems so broad a category to me, and I don't know what the week is going to bring. In any case, I've got 4 goals, not set too high I think I can do it this week!0 -
2 miles over lunch for 40 mins of relaxing workout. Outdoor track is so quiet and the birds are so happy that spring has arrived. :flowerforyou:
Adjusted my goals for calories consumed and burned based on my history with BodyMedia Fit armband and it raised the overage for Sunday. Posted updates in my signature, but yesterday helped make up for my bad day Sunday.0 -
80/175... if I am feeling adventurous tonight, I might add some more.0
-
It is so nice to get outside and walk in this warm weather. I am at 130/420. Hope everyone is having a wonderful week 0
-
Got in 89 mins tonight for a total of 185/240. Need to adjust that to 400 mins for this week. Have figured out I need to work out twice a day to get my rear end in gear..... so its gonna be once in the AM and once in the PM0

Under cals again yesterday, and got my water in. Two days down, 5 to go!

Okay...not doing so good on my goals...how can I get more motivation?0
-
My motivation is my daughter, my extremely supportive friends on this site, and when the beautiful weather arrives. I am finally able to breathe when I walk... that motivates me to want to walk MORE... the birds chirping and the sun on my face motivates me to want to walk outdoors... my daughter who needs a mom motivates me.... she won't have me if I am dead of a heart attack.
Sometimes you have to look to find your motivation... but it will come to you!
Friend some of us on here... I honestly could not have motivated myself to do this alone. I need my MFP friends and they need me in return. Feel free to request me and I will do everything I can to support you!
Dig deep... you can do this!!!! I have faith in you!0 -
MY GOAL FOR TODAY: Walk outside at lunch time!!!! The sun is shining and I could use some fresh air. Today has been a brutal day so far and the old me would have chowed down at lunch. Instead I am going to expend that energy on something useful and walk off my frustration rather than eat it!
Have a good day everyone!0 -
I am right there with you Suz I love getting out and walking now instead of shoveling food in over lunch.
Today 2 miles over lunch 42 mins and 293 calories burned. YEAH!!0 -
Kris, if I had longer than a half hour lunch, I'd be able to walk more! I can only get 20 minutes in (on a nice day) then run back to my desk and eat lunch quickly before the patients starting showing up again!
Off for an after dinner walk with my daughter... I think I might add 20 MORE minutes on - I LOVE SPRING EVENINGS!!!!0 -
