Oooh super, not been involved in a challenge recently. Thanks Elimay :happy:

Goals:
1. stay close to 1200 cals per day, trying not to eat back many exercise cals
2. 30 minutes cardio exercise per day, 5 days per week
3. 300 abdominal crunches 3 days per week

Habit:
try to limit myself to 1 cup of coffee per day, rest of my drinks to be water or fruit tea (this will be hard - I'm a coffee addict!)

Will try to check in everyday, but I apologise now if I miss some days.

Will prob have my free day on either Mon or Weds, but will still try to eat well on that day and may well end up doing crunches on that day.

Hi Mama!! I'm in I just need to figure out some reachable goals - will post once I know :bigsmile:

amsw1275

I definitely need some motivation and accountability so here goes:
Goals: 1) not eat potato chips more than once a week and only an actual serving size;
2) maintain a daily food log/diary;
3) watch portion sizes
Healthy habit: make sure to get at least one non-starchy vegetable with dinner each night
Rest day: date night

elimay59

Nice goals Kelene :happy: I got the green tea idea from anouther chalenge, I make a pot and drink it hot or cold more in the evenings. You are right we can do it :bigsmile:

elimay59

Yay !!!!!!!! That makes mama happy:bigsmile: I love you sunshine You could do different goals for when you are gone and when you get back if it overlaps with challenge Like Emwalker sayed lets make this no nonsence november I would put that in the tital if I could change it .

elimay59

Amsw welcome !!!!!!! those are nice goals Potatoe chips are hard for me too, Have you tried snack sized like pringles or others that are smaller portions, also pop chips are a healthier version. Just an idea sometimes that will work for me :happy:

amsw1275

Thanks. My little one with food allergies eats potato chips daily, which makes it a challenge not to grab a handful or two or three! That is why I need to try to cut them out, or at least buy baked or make my own in the oven. However, as for the full-fat store bought, that needs to be cut out of my diet.

elimay59

Good for you !!!!!! They are deffinatly not good for us :noway: You can do it !!!!!! :bigsmile:

l00zrr

My goals;
1. Stay under calorie count every day.
2. Swim or run 45 minutes a day.
3. Check in and record EVERYTHING I eat and drink daily.

Good Habit;
Brush teeth, mouthwash, and floss three times daily.

I think I might skip the one free day. It might tempt me to take off more than I should ;>

This should be fun and interesting

elimay59

Me too!! My goals are:

1-Count EVERYTHING even on bad days

No free day for me, I go overboard
Looking forward to this! Hopefully it will give me the motivation I've been lacking!

moonfleur75

Ok...I'm new at MFP and found your challenge! Here goes:

Goals:
1. Stay true to my calorie goal and don't go over.
2. Log-in and count everything EVERY day.
3. Work out 5 days a week.

Habit:
Floss every day.

I choose not to have a free day because once I allow myself to eat something unhealthy I can't seem to stop.

Thanks for the challenge, accountability and help with motivation!
