    Niki, that's actually my little one! She's almost 8 now. That's my dad with her in the pic! He's no longer with us so I was honoring him today by posting his pic as my profile.

    He looks to be very proud of his granddauther!

    3) Sweat.
    4) Shower.

    Niki... I actually returned my HRM and bought another one on Amazon, cause the Wal-mart one was so bad! :grumble: You'll probably want one with a chest strap.

    I reached all my goals today except ... I ate far too much at dinner. I didn't go over my calorie goal or anything but my dad had a cookout and I ate about 3/4 as much as I usually do BUT I felt so sick afterwards. Which I get is a good thing... my body finally knows what is too much. I'm about to start at that English homework now. Tomorrow is a weigh in. I"m nervous.

    Goals for tomorrow:
    1. Help mom out around the house.
    2. Gym (running! And weights)
    3. Get back into eating healthy.

    Hope everyone had a good day!

    Good morning,

    Sorry I've been away so long. Recently things have been a pretty chaotic here for the past month, and MFP was the only thing that could really give. I'm really sorry I haven't been around for you guys, it sounds like there have been some pretty tough times for some of you. I hope that things are improving.

    Goals for Monday:
    1. Plan meals for the week
    2. Only eat whats on said meal plan
    3. Water, must drink lots of water
    4. Run - even if running buddy cancels
    5. Work on house
    6. Come back on this thread tomorrow morning

    Have a lovely day everyone! See you tomorrow.
    Kx

    3. TRACK MY FOOD!!!--Yes.
    4. Brush teeth right after dinner.--Soon after.

    Sunday went better and I feel more in control of my eating. I KNOW I can do this so why do I keep letting myself slide?

    I'm going to stop putting bedtime down as a goal. I have been getting bed by 9:30 when I work the next day so I'm going to concentrate on watching my snacking.

    Welcome back, Kim. Hope things start calming down for you!

    Goals for July 18:
    1. Water.
    2. Track my food.
    3. 15 minutes of exercise.--Done.

    Late edition

    Sorry for sommer instead of summer. English is not my first language and I can't see my mistakes quickly sometimes.:blushing:

    Hi everyone! A little late today! I actually met all my goals for today already so I'm just checking in. I bumped up my calorie goal yesterday since I felt like I wasn't eating enough and it is so hard to eat as much as it wants me to with my exercise (probably because we really need to go grocery shopping. lol) On the plus side I ran for a mile and a half straight yesterday! I'm amazed at how fast I built up my endurance! It's crazy. Hope you are all doing well! I'll be checking in again tomorrow.
