Hello. While it is important to set long-term goals, it is equally important to have short-term goals. For example, you may not imagine losing 10 pounds this week, but you can develop the habits that will enable you to do. Short-term goals result in long-term success.

Mine are:
1. No binging.
2. Eat as close to my caloric limit as possible.
3. Limit my unhealthy food intake.
4. Exercise more often.
5. Be more focused.

So what are your goals for this week?

    1) no random "well I'm walking past the bakery and this looks good, I'll just get it!" this week (including with ice cream, waffles and any other items I tend to buy just for the heck of it)
    2) get out of the 119-120 range and break the 118s
    3) increase my iron content and water content for blood donation on Saturday

    Don't gain any weight!

    (I swear maintenance is just as hard as losing weight)

    1. Exercise daily; at least 30 minutes of Cardio + 100 ab crunches, weighted arm reps, lunges.
    2. Drink at least 12 8oz. glasses of water daily.
    3. Eat cleaner and correct portion sizing even if it takes longer to prepare.
    4. Curb late night snack attacks by keeping busy/going to sleep earlier.

    It's hard to keep on track but you have to be focused if you want to be successful in weight loss.

    Good one, I need to increase my water intake as well. 12 may be a bit too much for me, though.

    My original plan for this week:
    1) Run three times throughout the week
    2) Do my burpee workout at least twice through the week

    But I'll also pick up a goal from some of you, and drink at least 64 ounces of water each day
