I have found that I stay more focused on my goals if I make myself accountable to others by sharing my goals so I hope you all don't mind if I post them here and then give an update at the end of each day of how I've did. And anyone else who wants to share their personal goals feel free to jump in too!!!
My goals for the week of July 26 - August 1
Drink at least 135.2 ounces of water each day :drinker:
Even though I drink "diet" soda, limit myself to only one can per day so I can focus on my water intake
Only one "sweet" food a day . . .and make that one a lower calorie version than normal
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, at least 4 days of the week

Great goals-
My goals- Eat dinner by 530pm and no food after 7pm- lately i've been eating at 7pm or later, and maybe thats stalling my weight loss.
treadmil/elliptical at least 30 min 6 days of the week, with one of those days, being a military style PRT - and do bb bootcamp 6 days mon-sat
Drink 160 ounces of water per day 64 ounces before lunch 32 ounces after lunch/before I go home, 1 during work out, and 1 more before bed
Only get on the scale one Wednesday and Sunday- instead of EVERY day.0 -
Great idea!
My goals for the week:
Exercise 4-5 days for at least 30 mins each
Eat breakfast at least 3-4 days... this is hard for me, I'm not used to eating breakfast at all!0 -
I totally agree i have to be accountable also.
My goal this week is to drink more water- that is so hard for me.
I will drink more water---I will drink more water !!!0 -
Great idea!!!
My plan for this week:
Monday: Zumba + Elliptical or Circuit Training (most likely Circuit Training)
Tuesday: C25k +Circuit Training
Wed.: Zumba + Elliptical or Circuit Training (again most likely Circuit Training)
Thurs: C25k +Circuit Training
Friday: Pedicure
Saturday: C25K+Zumba+Circuit Training
I would like to burn an average of 750 calories per workout for a total of 3750 for the week.
I'm currently set at 1280 so my workout calories would put me at 2030 cals. I don't want to eat them all so I'm going to go for a range between 1500-1800cals.0 -
We all CAN meet our goals this week. . .thanks for sharing and thanks for the encouragement everyone!! :flowerforyou:0

Okay I must come back & "confess". . .I posted this with all intentions of my eating be done for the day but then after I posted I ended up having a peanut butter/jelly sandwich & one of those Little Debbie Nutty Bars. So my goal for the sweets got derailed but today is a new day & I am going to try to be stronger tonight. . .it's always the evenings that seem to get me0 -
Yesterday is gone so it doesn't matter what we did then. What is important is TODAY !! And we CAN meet our goals for today !!! Late night is bad for me also - but I try to chew gum so I don't stick those sweets in my mouth.0

I had breakfast yesterday and today! WOOT! 2 Days down
I worked out yesterday, but only for 28 minutes. I was dying, not sure why... I've been doing 35-40 minutes the last week, 30 should have been easy for me. Oh well.. today is a new day!0 -

Great job on eating breakfast 2 days in a row & great job on the exercise too. . .any & all exercise is healthy and good for us!! Keep up the awesome work! :flowerforyou:0 -
Today was not so good for me goal-wise. . .
Soda: goal was 1 can. . .I had 2 cans
Sweets: goal was only 1 sweet. . .I had 2 brownies plus a Little Debbie cake
Exercise: goal was 30 min/4 days. . .I only did 15 min. but this is only the 2nd day so I can still make up for that & still meet my weekly goal
Water: goal was 135.2 oz. . . .I had 169 oz :drinker: So at least I did SOMETHING right today!!!
Tomorrow is a new day and I am going to try my best to be SUPER GOOD the rest of the week and make up for all my wrongs today!!0 -
Got my exercise in today... made it 37 mins on my elliptical. Debating whether or not to take tomorrow off, I have a class on thurs that will be 45-60 mins and it killed me last week. :laugh:0

Late to the party, but I have one and only one goal this week. Track every day.
I just started (back) at 'all this' mid-week last week. When I track, I eat better. Not perfect, but better. I also cook more when I track, which means I eat better.
So this week, I will track everything.
So far, so good.0 -
Two days of getting all my water in. Hope to keep this up all week. Then maybe next week add another goal. Baby steps seem to work best for me. I will just sneak up on it !! LOL !!!
Hope everyone is on track !!0 -
GREAT JOB Everyone!!!!
Today was a better day for me than yesterday was!
Soda: Goal - no more than 1 can. . .I didn't have ANY today!!
Water: Goal- 135.2 oz. .. I had 185.9 oz :drinker:
Exercise: Goal- 30 min/4 days. . .I did 45 mins. total today (various things at the gym)
Sweets: Goal- no more than 1 "sweet" per day. . .I only had my homemade "milkshake" (low cal) & one little Reisen candy (43 cals)
Let's keep all the good, healthy habits rolling into tomorrow!!! I know we CAN!!! :happy:0 -
