    Just for Today is a great topic
    I will look at each day as my goal to eat sensibly and walk.
    I walked this morning for 30 mins and am going to walk this afternoon for 15 mins for a total of 45 mins.
    I joined 10 days ago and have lost 5 pounds.
    Almost to my goal, I need to lose another 5 pounds

    How would everyone feel about a new thread? Is this one getting too long?

    That's a great mindset! Thank you! I've been struggling to take weight off for a couple years now. I've done it before but I just don't seem to stick to it this time around. I think one of the problems is that the program I used in the past, while it works GREAT, it looks at things from a weekly standpoint. So, if I blew it mid way through the week, I would find myself deciding I would start over next week and therefore, I might as well enjoy the remainder of this week. But soon, every week fell into that pattern. Since MFP makes you be accountable every day (rather than being able to "make it up" by the end of the week") I'm hoping I can create better habits. Last week was a great start - I kept to my calories, was even under, and worked out three times. I know I need to work out more than that, but it was a good start and they were good, hard workouts. When the week was over, I had only lost 3 ounces. So now, I'm finding motivation to be a little tough. But I love your post. Thank you. I'm going to keep that in mind when I want to start over tomorrow. Instead, I'll tell myself to get through today being healthy!

    Very good words of wisdom. We need to not worry about tomorrow and just concentrate on getting thru today in a way that will keep us healthy.
