FOCUSING ON ONE WEEK AT A TIME, WHEN THE BIG PICTURE SEEMS TOO OVERWHELMING.......

FOR THE WEEK OF: Feb 27 to MARCH 5, 2011

Hello I am so tired of losing 50, 60 & even 70 pounds and regaining it.
When I did this last week I lost 3 pounds and went beyond my 100 minutes. You can too!!


So, for this week I am once again challenging myself to exercise 100 minutes (and hope I can lose 1 ½ pounds)! Since exercise seems to be my downfall. I must get a routine for this!

If you want to join me, PLEASE support me, and I will support you.
Who would like to make a 1 week pact with me of what YOU need to work on?
ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT NEED TO LOSE MORE THEN 50 POUNDS OR THOSE HAVING DIFICULTY.


Focus on just this one week and commit to either.....
examples (may be changed to fit your need)

1. Lose 1 or 2 pounds this week, and post how & results by next Sunday

2. Exercise 100 minutes (or your choice) this week, and post how & results by next Sunday

3. Journal daily, and post how & results/menu by next Sunday

4. Maintain my current weight, and post how & results by next Sunday

5. Choose your own that you have the most problems with, and post how & results by next Sunday


REMEMBER I ONLY WANT YOU TO PICK ONE THING FOR MY 1 WEEK CHALLENGE.

“Set new short-term goals. When you feel you've mastered the previous short-term goals you set for yourself, create some new ones. Remember this is a journey, not a destination. Accomplishing any goal, whether it's weight loss or anything else in life, requires a lifelong commitment. You will always have to set new goals and work on new areas even when you accomplish your big long-term goals.”


Thank you and you may friend me if you like. I am fairly new here, but I have been following Weight Watchers old CORE program, and can do well following good eating habits........... as long as I don't stray away. ;-) and we all do that at one time or another.

    Definitely doing this again, I've met both of my goals as well and since I'm going to visit my brother in new orleans from about the 3rd to the 13th I'll need some motivation lol. 150 minutes of exercise and lose at least 1 lb :)
    Oh, and missdee, I'm very proud that you passed the 100 minute point for this week, great job!

    Miss Dee my dearest darling:

    I am truly in this time. My goal is to lose 1 lb and I am going to work at sticking to my daily food allowances (carbs, calories, etc). What the fitness prog shows isn't exactly what my Dr. wants but I am all for the cals. I try and do about 30 - 45 carbs a meal (except breakfast) My protein tends to be high, My sugar tends to be high because of my fruit intake.

    Thanks if my goal. Obviously I have to walk daily t get the weight off but right now I am struggling with both the food and exercise and if I don't get the binging under control I am going to give up.

    Thank you for never giving up on me. I know that others on this board don't know that we know each other from somewhere else so if you are new to meeting Miss Dee then let me say "NEVER LET HER GO" she is the best.

    I am in. I like the one week challenges. I struggle with exercise. I am going to do a twist on the exercise and go for a 2000 calorie weekly burn. It helps me get past the mental block of time. I am traveling with my work this week. It is always a struggle to meet my goals while away from home.
