DIET:Stay Under Cals, Under Sodium, 5 Fruits/Veggies & Drink 15 Cups of H20
CHALLENGES YOU ANTICIPATE: In a lazy mood today0 -
Sorry I dropped off while mom was visiting. Totally abandoned my calorie counting, though I didn't go overboard. Definitely didn't stay under, but not too far over.
Back to counting and keeping myself under today! I am actually looking forward to some healthy eating! No exercise planned for today though with Trick or Treat with the kiddies planned. Although I will be walking. Keeping the youngest on track be a bit though.
Anyone stuck in all that snow?
Goals:
Diet: Track everything, stay under cals, carb, fat. HARD AT IT UNTIL TG!
CHALLENGES: With trick or treating not sure what or when I will have dinner. Although I think that I just came up with a plan,
Happy Halloween!

There is not way that I'm going to lose the weight that I wanted to by Thanksgiving. However, I am not giving up, and plan on losing at least a pound a week between now and then.

diet: did not reach
Today's goals (Monday) -
Fitness: at least 20 minutes exercise

Hi Ladies! Hope you had a great Halloween! I ate some sweets but I was able to stay under cals
Wendy: Glad you enjoyed your mom's visit!....Are you still doing 30 Day Shred?
Lana: Good Job still sticking with your goals with your hectic school schedule! I dont think I'll met mine either. I'll join you with trying to lose at least 1lb a week (if you dont mind). I weigh in on Fridays so I'll let you know how it goes in a couple of days.

Fitness: Ripped in 30 & C25K

Loveme - That sounds like a great idea! I could use the extra encouragement. It has been a frustrating couple of weeks.
Yesterday's goal (Monday)
Fitness: 20 minutes exercise (not met--too busy in class/work)
Diet: not met (the donut yesterday didn't help---plus, hard to meet when not exercising)
Today's goal (Tuesday)
Fitness: 20 minutes exercise (this will take some extra effort!!)
Diet: within MFP calories
Challenges: 13 hour day between work/school (plus, driving time)0 -
So I have been doing JM No More Trouble Zones, but not as often as I should. I definitely need to start toning.
@Lana Donuts are terribly difficult to resist, you could call it your Halloween treat maybe? Hope between school and work you are able to find time to work out...life is busy and it doesn't seem to ever slow down, so it is hard to find/make the time to work out. Also, even though you may not meet your challenge goal, it is definitely good to keep going and do what you can, good luck!0 -

Rene and Lana sticking with it is the most important thing!
Rene - I am going to start the 30 DS again this week. I didn't do it at all when mom was here and this week has been crazy with Halloween and All Saints Day church stuff yesterday. Today I have to get my son caught up on his homework. So I am going to commit to starting again on Friday.
Jennifer - Welcome back! With you in the toning department. When I was swimming it was a great way for me to tone, but the pool is waaay to cold for me now. Keep telling the hubby we need to get the heater cranked up!
Goals for today:
Stay under cals. Won't lie and pretend that I am even going to try for exercise today.
Challenge: The jar of candy that some saboteur has put at the receptionists desk! Evil!0 -
Wendy~I'll be checkin on your friday to see if you started 30 DS. Hope you stayed away from that candy.

Rene - So far so good! My willpower is withstanding the temptation! Haven't even delved into the 20lbs of candy the kids got from trick-or-treating!
Weighed in this morning (a day early . . . I couldn't resist ) and found that I am less the 1/2 lb from my Thanksgiving goal! Also found that the new pair of jeans that I bought last week are too big! Of course, I wore them last week so now I can't take them back. :grumble: I am going to try to shrink them tonight.0 -

Rene - So what! You have come so far! It will just take a little more time. You are sticking with it and that is what is important!
I have to tell everyone about a new snack that I found. I found it at Sam's, but I bet you can find it in the grocery too. It is a Greek Yogurt Dip with cucumber and garlic. It only has 35 cals, 2.5 g fat, and 2 carbs in a 2 T serving. I ate with 1oz of Flat Out Edge 4 Cheese Crackers (taste great and lots of fiber so the net carbs are like 10). Oh my goodness! It is soooooo good. Paire with the crackers or veggies my new favorite snack!
Happy Friday Everyone!0 -
