Winter Wake Up Call!

This is a five-week challenge where individuals post weekly and winter goals. A daily physical and/or nutritional challenge will be posted to assist individuals to meet their goals. No groups or points are involved. Just individual goals, daily challenges...and hopefully...lots and lots of support from group members!

Please post your weekly/winter goals below. :)

  • My winter goal is to get back on track with regular exercise and healthier food choices. I am also aiming at losing five pounds in five weeks.

    My first week goals are to:

    1) reweigh myself tomorrow morning to establish a correct starting point
    2) reinstate Morning Movements as a start to my day
    3) stay under daily calorie goal
    4) eat back no more than half of calories earned from exercise
    5) complete daily physical and/or nutritional goals
    6) support group members!

    My weekley goals are as follows:
    1) I need to stay on track with weight loss. Gained some back over the holidays :(
    2) I want to get back to my last weigh in weight
    3) continue to go to the gym at least 5 times a week & if not, I will do cardio or weight lifting at home.
    4) Get myself motivated and get up earlier in the morning and do some physical activity
    5) continue to check in to MFP on a daily basis
    6) support the group members or anyone else that needs it

    Goals
    1. To get back the motivation I had last year (if you have some extra I will take handouts)
    2. Step up my game and get into a healthy weight.
    3. Log everything I eat

    I will do my best to be a great support

    i want to lose 5 lbs in 5 weeks.

    1.) work out on the treadmill or bike for 5 out of 7 days a week

    2.) eat out only once a week because not eating out is really hard for me.

    3.) by the end of the challenge i am hoping to be a healthier weight than i started with!

    Good luck to everyone! :)

    Nice goals, musicfan4life! I should really add the not eating out one on my goals, too; but I'm on the road so much with my job that I'd have to pack a cooler, and that is too much effort! I am aiming at 5 lbs in 5 weeks, also. Good luck...and welcome!

    Great goals, Octobergirl! It's hard not to eat out, as I told musicfan4life in this thread. My favorite meal out is breakfast. I have no willpower when it comes to Dunkin Donuts coffee (occasionally a donut), and a McDonald's Egg White Delite sandwich! Naw... I'm not thinking about food as I'm sitting here all snowed in (with noooooo cookies mind you!)! lol Good luck, Crystal! Go get 'em! :)
