    This sounds like a great idea. I've been on MFP since last May, but I haven't lost anything since Christmas. I really need to blast through this plateau.

    My goals for today are:
    1. I'd like to challenge myself to burn 500 calories during my workout
    2. drink lots of water
    3. go to bed an hour early for extra rest

    Congrats to everyone who made their goals yesterday! I managed to complete #1 & #2 Thursday, no luck on #3...

    For today (3/2/12) my goals are:
    1. make the best food choices possible (I'm at a work conference all day)
    2. exercise for minimum of 20 minutes
    3. drink lots of water

    I'm new to the challenge but need some extra motivation..I do what a previous poster does and do well for a few days then lose it completely and binge and undo all the progress I've made. I just recommitted but yesterday didnt go perfectly. Ate 6 oreos but I wanted to eat the rest of the package so that was actually an acomplishment. A little about me I am 28 and a vegan and I live in New Hampshire. Anyone would like to be friends that would be great!

    My goals for 3/2 are:
    1. stay under calorie goal.
    2. drink lotsss of water
    3. control myself tonight while watching a movie with friends...bring my snacks and stick to them. Drink water or tea if I get the urge to eat more.

    Hello MFP!
    I am new here; been committed to tracking for 23 days & going strong!
    As it is hard to stay motivated, thought this thread would be great for a first!

    Goals:
    1. Keep under my calorie limit (This will be hard working at the bar tonight!)
    2. Get ALL my paperwork done at work today (Been putting this off for two weeks & right now-procrastination! ughh)
    3. 30 min of cardio, 20 min abs! (Half done already!)

    If I accomplish these three goals today, I am allowing myself a (small) (small-ish?) ;) slice of cake at my God Son's First Birthday Party tomorrow! Love me some cake!!

    NEW - Julie from Ohio. I have been using MFP off and on for a couple of years now. I was running five days a week a couple of years ago and gained back the 20 pounds I lost when I dislocated my SI joint in my left hip. Sadly, the chiropractor didn't catch it but was happy to treat me for over six months. I finally got tired of the pain and went to my GP and he sent me to an amazing physical therapist that was able to diagnose me by watching me walk! It has been a long road back but I am finally completely healed up and started running a couple of weeks ago! Since it is so late in the day, I will post my goals for tomorrow:

    1) Stay in my calorie goal
    2) Run 2 miles
    3) Yoga for 30 - 60 minutes
