So the weekend’s goals:

3. Go through draws and get rid of stuff that no longer fits. - Yes
4. Water! – No
Morning Everyone,
Welcome back Nicole! I feel a bit rude welcoming someone to their own thread. I should be saying thanks instead. :flowerforyou:
I hope everyone across the pond enjoyed the super bowl and that you had loads of fun in Brighton Nam. I went to Uni there near the place pier and had far too much fun in general.
This weekend was really productive in terms of getting the house straight but a bit of a food disaster. It’s a developing pattern that I’ve got to kick in the head before it gets ingrained. The good news though is that I’ve looked up loads of new recipes and my boyfriend is on a business trip this week so I have a chance to test them out with out having to inflict any culinary disasters on him.
I have also signed up for a 5k sponsored run, I know plenty of people can run 5k in their sleep but the only thing I would run for normally is a plane so I’m pretty nervous. I keep having awful flashbacks to school sports days. I’d better look up Couch to 5k.
Wow I’m rambling today. Sorry, I’ll get to the point.
1. Water, no excuses!
2. Walk, Body Balance & Body Attack – Hello deep end!
3. Under on calories
4. More housework
Have a great day everyone! See you later!0 -
Thanks for all the welcome backs!! I love that no matter how long I disappear for when I return there are always some of those waiting!
I did fairly well yesterday! I didn't surround myself with food for the superbowl... which... if the Eagles couldn't have gone and won, at least the Packers did. Aaron Rodgers really is an excellent quarterback.
Goals from yesterday:
1. Log all calories: Check! I didn't stay under... but that wasn't the goal quite yet. I did do better than usual though.
2. Laundry: Check! Took me alllll day. literally. But it's done.
3. Get ahead in homework: No... didn't even get everything done for today but it wasn't for lack of trying. I was doing homework allll day too.
4. 8 cups of water: check!
So goals for today:
1. Water.
2. Gym for at least 30 minutes.
3. Log all calories and keep it between 1200-1500.
Have a good day everyone!0 -

3) Clean my desk -

Feb. 6:
1. WATER!!!--Yes.
2. Stay in my calorie goals.--No.
3. Exercise!!!--Only 15 minutes, but it's a start!
4. Meditate.--No, fell asleep instead!
While I drank lots of water yesterday I probably should have had more, considering the sodium in the foods we had! At least I know I will be drinking plenty today!
It is SO good for me to read all your post! I need to get back on track here--I have been letting all kinds of stuff get in my way and that is not the way it should be!
So, I am starting fresh today (once again!).
Goals for Feb. 7:
1. Water.
2. Stay in my calorie goal.
3. Exercise--at least 15 minutes before work and try more after work.
4. Meditate and get to bed early.0 -
Happy Monday! lol Glad to see that it seems everyone had a pretty good weekend!2-6-2011 goals
1. Drink at least 8 cups of water - Just, but yes.
2. Don't go TOO crazily overboard with snacking during the game. (Allowing myself 500 calories over my normal net goal.) - Yep, actually went less than 400 over, so technically I still had a deficit from what I probably burned.
3. Do some cardio, preferably at least 20 minutes. - Yes and no.... Jumped rope, but only for 10 minutes.
4. Polish up Career Objective Statement with Mom's help since she'll be here for the game - No, but I'm not taking complete blame for this. Mom got to my place late and we were then busy doing other stuff/watching the game the whole time.

2. Go to circuit class in the morning.
3. Sensible food choices all day.
4. Only 1 glass of vino in the evening. We are having a 'team cohesion meeting' which is code for going to the pub!! My lot are all big drinkers so I need to be well behaved so I can remind them of their antics the next morning!
Kim I also went to uni in Brighton!! How strange maybe we were there at the same time!!
Everyone is doing so well posting their goals! Let's keep the momentum going!!0 -
My goals for Mon 2/7
1. Make all the phone calls I've been putting off for awhile now. DONE
2. Drink water and only water all day and make sure to get enough in that I flush all this salt out from tonight. FAIL
3. Do some sort of exercise to help burn off the extra unhealthy calories I've had today. FAIL
4. Not sit on my butt all day like I've gotten used to doing when the baby girl is here. She's lazy and it rubs off on me when she's here. I've got to get her used to the idea that its ok to run around and play since her mom doesn't seem to do it. She also only really eats nothing but junk food cause of her mom and I've been trying to change that slowly hehe:) FAIL
So major fail today. I got the phone calls done and that got me no where. Gotta call them again tomorrow. I will continue to call daily until I get the info I need from them. It's 2 different Dr offices and they should have called me over a month ago about what I'm calling for so I'm gonna keep on them this time. My daughter needs orthodic insoles before she starts getting all the problems that come from having flat feet.
So goals for tomorrow 2/8
1. Water no excuses!!
2. Some kind of exercise!
3. Be careful how much pizza I eat tomorrow night. I'm going to be part of a focus group for a local radio station and they are feeding us pizza while we are there.
Hope you all have a good day tomorrow!0 -
This sounds like a great way to keep myself focused, thanks so much for starting these posts! I would love to have all of you add me as a friend, motivation is key to weight loss success
My 3 goals:
1) Get my sons laundry done...my husband is usually the laundry guy, weird but awesome!lol

3. Try to get in a few miles on the bike before class.

Yesterday was a half-and-half kind f day when it comes to my goals. It COULD have been a total bust again, though, so I feel like it was a success.
Welcome, Jess. I found that this is a really good way to stay focused.

Complete and total FAIL yesterday.2-7-2011 goals
1. Back to staying under on calories, carbs and fats - Bf invited me to go to the Cheesecake Factory so....... Yeah, right! (Did do a whole lot better than I'd expected, though!)
2. 6-10 cups of water, depending on the sodium thing - Only 4
3. Week 2, Day 1 of sit-ups - No. :ohwell: Basically went straight from work to dinner and when I got back didn't feel up to doing more than vegging for the evening due to being tired and the start of sinus issues of some time.
4. Wash dishes - See above
5. Bed by 9:30 - You would think with my reasons on #3 this would have happened, but no! (There are times I seriously confuse myself!)
Fortunately, today is a new day!! Unfortunately, I've still got this sinus issue and am REALLY tired, so I don't foresee gym time today, much as I had planned on it with last night's dinner.
2-8-2011 goals
1. SERIOUSLY back to staying under on calories, carbs and fats (If possible, a bit extra to make up for the last two days. My goal is losing 1 lb/week with a moderately active lifestyle, so I can afford it.)

3. Week 2, Day 1 of sit-ups
4. Wash dishes
