    Hi im Laura, i'm 29 from South Wales, UK.

    I'm looking to hopefully lose 7lb's slowly but surely (Christmas weight, too much chocolate) and then stay at my target weight.

    I'm also looking to increase my vitamin and water intake and lead a healthier lifestyle.

    My fitness pal is helping me monitor everything, and I can see my weakness and downfalls easily. Really loving this website and the app on my phone.

    Hi My name is Velvet and I am 43 years old. My boyfriend and I love to cook and eat so we have both put on a few extra pounds. He and I are both using myfitness pal and are having fun laughing at eachother when we mess up and eat to much, but we are trying to be faithful in loging what we eat. I have been sick the last week so I havent been able to exercise much but this is a new week and I am ready for the challenge. Bring it....

    My goals are to:
    1. Log everything I eat good or bad.
    2. Drink more water
    3. Start riding my bike on the beach at least 3 times a week.

    My goals for Monday

    To continue to journal honestly done
    To drink 8 glasses of water (green tea) and not drink coffee done
    To follow my eating plan done
    To not stress out....and if I do, to not use food to push down the stress. done
    To exercise at the gym after work. did not do...was not feeling all that good. taking it easy tonight

    today was pretty good. I got on the scale and lost 3 lbs since I started. My blood sugars are stablizing, which is a good sign. Almost forgot to mention...the pink roses that I bought for myself on Sunday and have on my desk have helped me to not stress eat. When ever I felt stressed, I smelled my roses. I think I am going to keep fresh flowers at my desk. It really helps. :smile:

    HI! What a great idea for a group - I often get hung up on the pressure of more specific goals, so I really like the "daily" goals :) My goals today are to

    1. Log everything I eat
    2. Run 2 miles on treadmill when I get home from work
    3. Drink lots of water

    I am married with two beautiful children - I work full time (just started a new job - been doing part time stuff until this wonderful full time job came my way!) and am a very busy person! I have been up and down on the scale so many times - am looking to lose weight and keep it off - to make that 'lifestyle change' so its a part of who I am. I'm good about exercising most of the time - but I eat way too much. I have determined that I'm a stress eater (gee, who isn't??) and I'm trying to be more aware of that.

    Good luck everyone!!

    Goals for Monday, January 9th
    1. Water- 10-12 glasses- Done
    2. Organize belts at work- Done
    3.Wii- Come on just 30 minutes! You are so worth it and it is so much fun!!!!!! - Done!!!

    So yesterday turned out to be a very productive day. 3 hours of climbing up and down ladders and reaching for nails plus 3 hours of deep cleaning back of shop. I wasn't planning on doing that, but since already dirty figured I might as well get it as clean as I like it!!!!! If only I could get the new guy to understand that that is how I like it at the end of every day!!!!!

    Sam- I love your self affirmation goal! Everyone should like themselves! It is hard sometimes, but when asked what the favorite part of your body is, you aught to have an answer! Great work!

    Tuesday, January 10
    1. Water- 10-12 glasses (you would think this would go without saying by now)
    2. Wii for 30 minutes
    3. Finish paper work and write order for work. Only worked in back yesterday, so have to catch up again up front!
    4. Do something unexpected for one person today!

    I hope everyone continues to do so well and make SMART goals. They may be only daily ones, but the turtle did win the race!:bigsmile:

    Have a smiley day!!!!

    Hi my name is Marie & I love the sound of this Challenge. I've been pretty slack for months and it really is beginning to bug the crap out of me. I haven't been honest or tracking or really trying at all so to stick to some daily goals will be good.
    My goals for today:-
    1. Log EVERYTHING
    2. Drink Water - at least 8 glasses
    3. Exercise today - look into other types of exercise instead of just jogging
    4. Do some laundry
    5. Wash Kitchen Floors :blushing: dog prints are not a pleasant sight

    Goals for January 9:
    1. Walking workout--calendar. (5 mile walk) --4 miles*
    2. Stay in my calorie goal with HEALTHY choices! --Better.
    3. More liquids--water and tea. --Yes.

    *Just realized today that there are TWO Leslie Sansone challenges--1 at the WalkClub website and 1 at her FB page. I will do the 21 day challenge at her FB page instead of the (more intense) 7 day challenge at the website. It will be better for my knee.

    I want to welcome all our newbies! Nice to meet you! Everyone is doing well and that's so good!

    The doctor has said that my mom has a week at the most left. I'm both sad and glad that I'm not in Phoenix. I have 2 wonderful sisters there that are with her and keeping the rest of us in the loop.

    Goals for January 10:
