Day by Day Challenge

PSUgrl921.... I'm the same way with sodium. I am always *way* over. Once my weightloss stops then I think I'll take a closer look at it and actually try and stay under. But usually I'm at least 500-1000 a day over...

Today's goals:

1. NO SWEETS!
2. Water ONLY to drink (no juice)
3. Stay positive

Good Luck All!

Good afternoon ladies. I hope you are all having a good day so far.

I failed on today's goals.......

1. Take a packed lunch to work so I am not tempted to eat anything not calorie counted - I took a packed lunch but couldn't eat it because everyone went across to the other building at work for the lunch that was provided. The only food there was lasagne so I had some vegetarian lasagne and salad. It was ok but I had to guess the calories for it.

2. Do level 3 shred - too tired to do anything but I will do it tomorrow! Because of this, I am staying within my 1200 cals.

3. Drink lots of water - I did this!

I will keep the same goals for tomorrow and hopefully be able to stick to them this time!

:flowerforyou: good afternoon how is everyone today i did all my water yesterday i think after a week i am getting back on track can't believe ist's already 1:43 p.m. wered id this day go. to anyone not feeling good i hope tommorw will be a better day for yous.ok need to get ready for the school buses to bring the children home debi

H everyone! I see we have some new faces. So I decided to jump on to say hello!

Hi Beth, welcome. Great goals, they don't always have to be related to weight loss. If you've read back on some of the posts, you'll see we set goals to buy trousers for work, read a chapter in a book, etc. One of my goals last week was to clean out my car. Glad you were able to complete them all. Nice way of looking at laundry as getting in a mini workout. I've been slacking on my laundry because I was under the weather the last few days.

Deb, wtg on getting your water in! I still have a little ways before my daughter gets off the bus. I am feeling better, thanks for asking. I hope to make completely back to normal on Friday.

Hey Mary Ann, thanks for stopping by. I see that you've joined in May and this is your first post. I'm honored! Nicole was nice enough to think up this idea. So I'm glad you jumped in to set up 3 mini goals for yourself. They sound reasonable. Try to stop back tomorrow to let us know if you made it.

I'll stop in tomorrow! have a great night.

achieved yesterdays goals.

drink 2 litres of water
log all food
30 mins of wii exercise

today my goals are the same, and will be the same until I dont have to push myself or think about doing them!!

have a lovely productive day everyone

Hi everyone! If it's not too late I would love to join in. Reading through the posts is so inspirational! You're all doing so well!

My goals for the day:

1. drink lots of water.
2. go to the gym tonight - at least 30 mins of cardio.
3. get to bed at a reasonable hour!

Have a good day!

Afternoon all!

I'm so glad I joined this group because it pushed me to get to the gym last night even though I got back from work really late. Usually I would have slouched about at home but didn't want to fail on my first attempt!

So I managed to get through about 2 litres of water and spent 45 mins doing cardio last night! Didn't quite achieve getting to bed early though so still feel a bit sleep deprived today.

My goals for today:

1. Gym tonight (no excuses)
2. Get this particular job done at work which I have been putting off since March!
3. Eat more green food - definitely a lack of veggies in my diet so need to do something about this.

Hope you're all having a good day!

Wow I am absolutely loving this idea!! Ladies I will be joining all of you on this challenge. Ok my goals for today will be:

- Get at least 3 loads of laundry washed, dried, folded and put away. The putting away is the hardest part.
- I also need help in the water department, so I will drink 4-16.9 oz bottles of water today.
- I will start working out again for at least 20 minutes.

Brand new baby at home and working today. Hopefully, I won't have too many interruptions. Good Luck Everyone!!!:flowerforyou:

Friday Goals:
1. 60min cardio
2. Walk dog for at least 20 minutes
3. Research for monster paper

Yesterday's Goals:

3. FAIL

Saturday Goals
1. Spin Class
2. Drink 2L of water (not including water at the gym)

Chris, glad you're keeping up with your daily goals. I think its a good idea to keep the same goals until they become habit forming.

inmyshoes, I hope you get a chance to start your essay. Good just on making it to spin and doing 30 minutes of cardio. That's tough. Glad you made it on the discussion board for your classes. You really reminded me that I shouldn't count the water I drink while working out as part of my intake. Because when you work out, you are supposed to drink more than the regular 64 ounces. Thanks for the reminder.

Namita, great job getting to the gym even once it got really late. Sounds like you were able to drink plenty of water too. I still sometimes have a problem getting to bed at a decent time.
Were you able to finish your work project? I like the eat more green food goal, but too many green foods conflict with my medication.

Ravyn, did you get the house work done? That's awesome that you made it to walk with your friend.

Michelle! Welcome, thanks for taking the time to drop in. I'm with you on the laundry, I still have two loads that are folded but not put away. Its on my mental list of things to do. I have a 24 ounce water bottle and if I drink 3 of those, it takes me over my water limit, so that's what I strive for. Congrats on the new baby!

Nicole, I can't wait to hear the good news about the THON interview. I hope you made captain! Great job on meeting all your goals. I love your Saturday goal...sometimes we get too stressed out or caught up in everyday life and forget to have fun.

Going to post goals...
