Hello everyone,

How was day 11? Did you have any victories or challenges?

Day 12 starts the weekend, which can be a more difficult time to stay on track. Setting and trackling your goals is a great way to stay focused. What are your goals for day 12, and what will help you achieve them?

    I ran for the first time in over a week today, because I've been away for about a week. It was VERY hot, but I'm surprised at how much endurance I'd kept. I did the first day of week 8 of a C25K program.

    My plan for today is staying within by calorie goal, logging completely everything and c25k when I get home from work and do some strength training. Oh, and drinking more water, didn't have much yesterday.

    Have a great day everyone!

    I often get overboard on the weekends, too!
    So today I will pay attention and stick to my plan:
    -) I will try a new recipe later today, that should take care of the main meals today and tomorrow.
    -) And I am going to make some low calorie muffins as a sweet treat - this way I won't be tempted to just eat anything (I hope).
    -) And of course, enough water
    -) And a walk, if the weather gets better, if not, then a rest day.

    As some of you have remarked earlier - it really helps to state the day's goals in the morning. :smile:
    Have a great weekend everyone!

    my goal for 12/100 is to log everything. Night away tonight with 3 course meal and wine so expect to go over. As long as i log i can hold myself accountable for every mouthful and enjoy our night away.

    :smile: Your posts give me strength! Today I will measure everything and cutback on extra unneeded calories like nuts and craisins in my salads. These munchies are my downfall and sabotage all of my counts... We are having a dinner party at the river tonight. I plan to hike to the lighthouse and eat small portions of good foods. Lots of water seems to help!
    Enjoy the weekend all-stay focused on where you want to be!

    Met all goal except calories. Went over 250 calories but was still below maintenance and I did log
    all. I am calling that a success and further realization that my love of baking must be put on the
    backburner for now.

    I am horrifically sore from the tabata workout yesterday morning so I am giving myself today to mend.

    Goals:

    Water: 3 qts.
    Calories: < 1200
    Me Time: DH and I ATV cruising the mountains with pals this evening.

    Weekends are normally a challenge when it comes to eating. But I'm going to try my best to stay on track and if nothing else log my meals. As always I plan to get in my 10k steps.

    I struggle with not eating enough on weekends, so my biggest goal for today is to exceed 1000 calories. Started with a decent breakfast even though we went out to eat. I have my mini-meals & snacks planned for the rest of the day since I have to work the retail job.

    I will get my run in today, C25K week 5 run 3, as I'm going to do that just as soon as I finish this post.

    I will reach my 10,000 steps quite easily because of the retail job.

    Tonight is our weekly bar night, so my last goal is to not drink alcohol tonight.

    Day 11 was not so great for me. I over did it on day 10. Had a pretty sore ankle, so did not walk as nearly as much as I wanted. Water didn't go any better then the walking did.
    Day 12 Hoping to get at least 10,000 steps in today. Keep in my calorie range. And drink drink drink my water. I have been having trouble with getting enough fiber, so went out and bought a box of Fiber one Raisin bran clusters.
    Day 13 The same as day 12.

    I also need to refocus. I am stress eating due to my workload. I will regroup and take a look at my hours and schedule and see how I can get out of this. Need to up the exercising too.

    Day 11 went well, didn't get to do too much in the garden like I hoped.

    Day 12 Goals: Not to consume over 2000 calories and to get a workout in.

    As has been usual since starting this challenge, I was fine on calories yesterday...but no good on exercise. Usually that's not the end of the world since my job keeps me very active, but yesterday was a work-at-home day so blah...not ok. My husband is working an OT shift today, and I'm working from home again. I want to complete an exercise dvd at some point today while he's at work. Tomorrow we are planning a long walk together along the path by a river near us.
