This is EXACTLY the same problem that I have! Even before I started this thing, I would drink water over pop (soda, whatever you call it) when I went out and never bought the stuff. I honestly just don't like it! But, as you all have been able to see in my goals, I am STILL struggling with drinking enough water regularly.Seems a lot of us are having trouble drinking the water lately! I just forget to drink it--it's not like I don't like water because I do. I am going to try and concentrate on water this weekend.3-26-2011 fitness goals
1. 6-10 cups of water, depending on sodium - No, 5

3. Week 2, Day 2 of sit-up challenge, preferably SOON so I can maybe do Day 3 tomorrow night and catch up next week - No, not at all.... I think I'm just going to redo Week 2 this coming week.

1. Get to the bank to deposit paycheck -Yes
2. Pay Sears bill - Yes (Even paid a second store card that is due soon while I was at the mall because I'd learned my cash flow was slightly better right now than I thought.)
3. Update finances and start taxes - Yes (Started at least, I need to finish them today.) and no. But I DID get most of one of the applications finished, and the only part I didn't finish I need information I can't get until Monday.

So, made a LITTLE bit of progress on my goals yesterday. Hoping to further improve today!

I’m pretty embarrassed to come back and say just how badly I did at the weekend. The whole weekend felt like when I was writing my dissertation at Uni, suddenly everything else is soooo interesting and really does need to be done. I don’t know why I’m putting off the art work. I love it; nothing makes me happier but apparently sorting my music by beats per minute so that I’m listening to the perfect music while running. Not that I actually went running mind you, I was busy making a running playlist! :explode: I’m so angry at myself.
Sorry rant over . New week, new start.
Goals for Monday:
1. I WILL be under on calories
2. Water
3. C25k – No excuses
Have a great day everyone!0 -
Goals for March 27:
1. Water, water, water!--Better.
2. Walk outside and do some work in the yard.--No, poured rain all day and hung out with my grandson instead.
3. Stick to my eating plan.--Yes.
4. Get to bed on time.--Almost.
Well, the weekend wasn't a total bust but I didn't get much walking in. Hope to do better.
I've been good at keeping the added sugars and simple carbs out of ny diet and I do feel better.
Goals for March 28:
1. Water.
2. Exercise and yoga before work.
3. Stick to my eating plan.
4. GET TO BED ON TIME!!! (By 9:30)
Have a good one, all!0 -
Ok well since I thought this weekend was going to be bad and I didn't log anything all weekend I have no idea how I really did. I ate out for most meals from Friday night on. Didn't eat a whole lot yesterday until hubby decided that he wanted to go to the local japanese place. Hibachi was yummy and I went with the shrimp and veggies so yummy
Its a little local restuarant that just opened up last year and its one of our faves in town.
Bought a new fridge and stove:happy: Old ones went to my SIL since she just moved into a trailer and it didn't have any applainces. New ones look so much better but now I need a new range hood hehe. The old brown one looks really silly with black and stainless. Will wait until we get my hubby's school dispersement and probably go buy a microwave range hood in stainless. Saw one at the place we got the applainces for just under $300 and its one that is regularly $900. They had 3 sitting in the back clearance area. He will get his money from school in about 2 weeks so they should still be there.
So goals for today 3/28
1. Water
2. clean up all the crap that is all over from moving in the new stuff
3. laundry
Lets all do better with our water:) We all seem to be having problems with that lately!! hehe Have a good day everyone!!0 -
Goals for Friday:
1. Water - at least 10 cups. YES
2. Walk or some form of exercise now the foot is starting to get stronger and feel better. YES

Goals for Saturday:
1. Drink water throughout the day. KIND OF
2. Be a sponge for soaking in knowledge from all the experts at the show! I TRIED!

Thanks for all your wishes about my niece! Hoping to pop over there this weekend and I can't wait! Kathy I'm totally with you on being able to give them back when they get cranky! The benefits of being an aunt/grandmother!!
The Vitality Show on Saturday was actually pretty great. We walked around for hours. There were people joining in on exercise and talks etc but we mainly had fun going to all the stalls.
Kim I'm with you completely on proscrastinating! In fact sometimes I think I'm the master of it!! I did exactly the same thing with making a running playlist and by the time I finished it was too late to go for a run much to my disappointment/relief!!
Rav sounds like you're loving buying new bits and pieces for your house! I LOVE a bargain so fingers crossed the microwave is still there.
SK how are you finding your sit up challenge?
Lee you're a rockstar doing shred again! Is this your third time around? I still haven't finished the first one I'm ashamed to say!
Right on to my goals...
A bit late to post for today but have done well. Training this morning and going to Pilates soon. So far I've had 8 cups of water and healthy food so hopefully I don't sabotage myself later today.
Goals for Tuesday:
1. Water.
2. Under on cals.
3. Gym after work.
4. Stop stressing at work. I'm really hating it at the moment but nothing I can do about it.
Have a great day!0 -
Well, there were 2 things I didn't take into consideration when I made my goals for today. 1) That I wasn't going to be home until 5. 2) It's that "TOM" and I'm feeling totally BLAH. (Not to get majorly into details, but my cycle is a bit of a mess and when I actually HAVE a "TOM" it can be pretty rough.)3-28-2011 fitness goals
1. 6-10 cups of water, depending on sodium - Just made it! 6 1/2
2. Under on calories, carbs and fats - Over on fat according to MFP thanks to my dinner.... HOWEVER, I'm not sure it actually had as much fat as was calculated from the recipe because I cleaned of a bunch of solidified fat before reheating it.
3. Week 2, Day 1 of sit-up challenge - Just pushed it out.
4. Do some other type of exercise (Maybe even get to the gym?) - No
5. Bed by 10:30 - Not so much....
3-28-2011 non-fitness goals
1. Complete application for financial assistance that I started the other day - Tried, by the time I could call, the offices were apparently already closed.
2. Finish updating finances AND finish federal taxes - No
3. Post goals for Tuesday before bed - Here they are!
K - Oh, do I ever hear you about the procrastination! There are times I feel like I should just not touch my computer for a day or two and see how much more I would be able to accomplish....
Kathy - Way to go with cutting sugars and simple carbs! Right now, I honestly don't know that I could manage it.
Rav - So glad to hear you've found new appliances you like! Hope that hood stays available for you.
Nam - First off, so glad to hear your foot has improved! As far as the sit-up challenge, if I could actually make myself do it with regularity, I think it would be doing me quite a bit of good. It's giving me a pretty decent ab burn. Of course, that could partially be because my abs aren't in that great of shape, so doing practically ANY ab work would do that! :laugh:

3-29-2011 goals

3. C25k – Partly
Morning Everyone!
Lol, I’m glad I’m not alone in the procrastination!
SK- Hope you're feeling OK.
Rav – I’m so jealous, I’d love to redo our kitchen, I think it’s still the same one as when the house was built in the 60s! It’s ugly as anything but is showing no signs of wearing out!
Yesterday was one of those turn around days. I got back from work tired and fed up, forced myself out the door to run. Just the walk to the park really perked me up. Unfortunately when I got to the park I had a bit of a trousers too large issue that meant I had to cut things short and was giggling the whole way home. I might go to a different park to run tonight though.
Goals for Tuesday:
1. Under on Calories
2. Water
3. C25k

Kim--Procrastination is my middle name! I was reading that people who procrastinate tend to be more creative, though. Something to do with waiting for inspiration to strike.

Been a couple days but I've been doing ok. Getting better on the late night snacking but I'm not out of the woods yet.
So goals for this week:
1. Water. I'm up to about 6 cups a day so I would like to get to 8.
2. Don't take the bus anywhere. I don't have much extra time for the gym but if I walk everywhere I need to go I'll be putting in at least a mile a day. Usually more.
3. No more late night snacking.
Have a good week! I'll be checking in when I can.0 -
Ok bad start to the week. Just gonna chuck it up to a case of the Monday's. I had them pretty bad yesterday. My energy level just hit rock bottom about an hour after I was up. Not good. Today I'm strating off there so hopefully getting myself up and movign will improve it:)So goals for today 3/28
1. Water-NOT NEARLY ENOUGH
2. clean up all the crap that is all over from moving in the new stuff-FAIL
3. laundry-FAIL
Nam, they should still be there. Most people don't even realize the room is back there its kinda hiden in the back of the store. Also there were 3 of them and they have been there for the last 4 months. Thanks for keeping those fingers crossed though:)
SK, Thanks:) Understand about your TOM Mine is always haywire and crappy too. Hope you feel better soon.
Frub, My house was built in 65 and still has all the original cabinets in it. I'd love to replace them. We just don't have the money to buy them right now. We are trying to save the money so we can hopefully do it in a couple of years. But we have to redo the floors too cause it still has the ugly olive green carpet in there. We want to put in a laminate wood floor. We just replaced the white stove with a black and stainless and the 40 yr old fridge with a nice side by side.
Kathy, Ours has that too but the freezer in the new one is bigger than the freezer in our old fridge. Also depending on the age of your fridge its possible mine is smaller than yours when it comes to the ice maker. They seem to have shrank alot cause my parents is alot bigger than the one in mine. They've had their fridge for about 15 yrs now.
So goals for 3/29
1. Oil change in car if they aren't too busy. There was a 2 hr wait yesterday where I go and normally it only takes about 30mins.
2. CLEAN
3. WATER
4. LAUNDRY

Well I do have a reason for not finishing today. I got my thumb caught in the car door this morning. It still hurts but I didn't break anything so I'm ok. It hurt like hell though so I've been babying it all day. Hoping that tomorrow it feels better and I can get the ball rolling on this week. Its pretty swollen still and hard to move. My daughter closed her door on my hand as I was closing my door too. The scream I let out was pretty loud and a guy I didn't know was concerned enough to make sure I was alright. My hubby who used to be an EMT has checked me out and says it doesn't feel like anything is broken.
So goals for tomorrow 3/30
1. WATER
2. SHOPPING
3. Will depend on how my thumb is feeling...Don't want to commit to anything I can't do.
I'm getting ready for bed so Goodnight everyone! Hope you all had a good day and that you all have a good night.0 -

Morning All,
I spent yesterday evening curled up on the sofa and it was a relief. I rested my shoulder and my knee, went over on my calories but not over my maintenance level. I didn’t think about organising stuff or what I should be doing instead, I even got an early night. I’m back on it today but it was nice to have a day.

4. Bed by 9:30.--No.
Yesterday was AWFUL when it came to eating right and exercising! I just cannot seem to get motivated! The rain is pouring down and I'm tired of it!. It rains a lot here, I know, but usually it's on-and-off and rather gentle, but the past few months it has been one downpour after another. And the wind doesn't help, either! It's supposed to get better by the weekend and I hope it does. I really want to work on my container garden. All my seedlings are ready for their permanent homes! All right, enough whining--it's not going to change the weather any, is it?
Goals for March 31:

I've been sticking with Weight Watchers this week and it seems to be working for the food intake. I have 36 pts daily and 49 pts extra for the week...down to 25 pts for my weekly. I would like to not use any more of my weekly pts anymore till the new week begins again. So we'll see how it goes)
Kim - It's nice to have a day off...especially for your mind. Glad you had a stress relieving evening)
Kathy - It's raining here too and cold. I wonder what on earth happened to it being Spring. These temps are too cold for the season.0 -
Rav - Hope your finger is feeling better!
Kim - Glad to hear your day off did you so much good! We all need those from time to time, I think.
Kathy - I definitely can relate about the weather.... I CANNOT WAIT for it to actually start feeling like spring, and sometimes it's really hard to keep from letting it get me down when it's cold/rainy for days without end.... I hope we BOTH get some nice, warm, SUNNY weather soon!
Well, as it turned out, I didn't work on Tuesday, but didn't really get much done either. :ohwell: Yesterday I subbed (For a middle school Social Studies teacher, which is my secondary certification, so I was pretty happy about that. Even SORT OF got to teach. Went over the answers on a study guide, which is more than I often do in a secondary school.) but didn't get a chance to get on here early enough to make goals. As far as my regular ones: Short of water, went over on fat by a couple of grams thanks to not being able to finish my sit-up challenge for a really STUPID reason that I don't want to mention. (Due to both not wanting to admit the extent of my stupidity and it also possibly being TMI, lol. Speaking of which, Kim, thanks for the post you made on that activity of mine and your concern.3-29-2011 goals
1. 6-10 cups of water, depending on sodium - Not so much.... Probably around 4 1/2
2. Under on calories, carbs and fats - TOM sugar craving screwed up my carb intake, but that was the worst of it. Still under on cals and fats.
3. Do SOME KIND of exercise - No. Between feeling crumby and having my heat down to save on electricity, all I wanted to do was curl up in a blanket all day. Unfortunately, I pretty much let myself.
4. Figure out a way to finish that application. I'd rather mail it, but if I have to do it online, so be it. - Actually had to go down to the office because I found some of the information I was given over the phone to be vaguely ridiculous.
As of right now, I'm not working tomorrow, but I sort of expect that to change. If it DOESN'T I might add some other goals to this in the morning.
When I made my comment about the exercise I hadn't thought about how it might come across.) Didn't do any other exercise.
Now, I'm not working today, so let's see if I can beat this continued "crumbiness" and have a productive day!
3-31-2011 fitness goals
1. AT LEAST 8 cups of water
2. Under on calories, carbs and fats
3. Get all the way through Week 2, Day 2 of sit-ups

5. Bed before 10:30, lights out and at least TRYING to sleep before 11
3-31-2011 non-fitness goals
1. FINISH FEDERAL TAXES!! This is high priority, because I can't do goal 2 without them being done.
2. Complete paper and online financial aid applications for grad school
3. Put all clothes away and pick out what I'm wearing tomorrow. It's sort of an orientation day for graduate students of the program I'll be starting in the fall. :happy:
4. Off MFP and facebook by 11:30 so I even have a chance to get any of this stuff done! :laugh: (It's 10:55 right now.)0 -
Ok well I've completely blown everything that I've worked for. AGAIN. But here I am. Humbley asking for you to accept me back in the group!!! Love you all.
I've messed up my day so far first thing this morning, but that's the thing that got me thinking. So my goal for the rest of the day is to simply get back to the basics. Find the state of mind that I need to be in. Mediate and evaluate my goals and aspirations.0 -

Morning Everyone,
I worked a 12 hours day in the office yesterday and didn't really have the energy to do anything much other then have dinner and go to bed. I don't know how people who have kids or jobs that ask you to regularly work long hours manage it.

2. Under on calories
3. C25K

3. Get all the way through Week 2, Day 2 of sit-ups - No, too sore from starting it on Wednesday.
4. Get to the gym. I might not feel up to weights, but I can at least do some cardio. - No, not entirely sure what happened to my day, but I just ran out of time!
5. Bed before 10:30, lights out and at least TRYING to sleep before 11 - No, and no.... Was more like in bed by 11, trying to sleep by 11:30, lol.
3-31-2011 non-fitness goals
1. FINISH FEDERAL TAXES!! This is high priority, because I can't do goal 2 without them being done. - Kind of.... Using TurboTax online it said I'm going to owe instead of getting a refund, which I wasn't totally expecting, so I'm going to try to get a second look at them later.
2. Complete paper and online financial aid applications for grad school - No. :ohwell: The tax situation threw me off so much I wasn't sure about doing this.
3. Put all clothes away and pick out what I'm wearing tomorrow. It's sort of an orientation day for graduate students of the program I'll be starting in the fall. :happy: - Not quite on putting things away, but I did pick out what I'm wearing today.
4. Off MFP and facebook by 11:30 so I even have a chance to get any of this stuff done! :laugh: (It's 10:55 right now.) - Just made it! Unfortunately, I came back before I finished stuff.
Ok, goals for today....
1. Log the best I can (Lunch is provided at this orientation thing and I'm sort of assuming it will be a buffet.)
2. Healthy choices and portion control while I'm out
3. Drink water any time it's possible! (Not sure how much that might be today.)
4. Hold personal situation questions until I'm talking one-on-one with university staff. I've been told by old classmates that I drove them up the wall by asking too many questions during class.0 -
3.31.11 Goals:
1) WATER - better than normal, but still pretty poorly
2) AM Exercise - CHECK
3) Sticking with 1700 cals - FAIL(
4) PM Exercise - FAIL - I cooked, cleaned and had no energy...maybe I should stay longer at the gym in the mornings. I can't seem to get two workouts in - BAH!
Over 1700 cals by 56 cals and over my points!( I made BAKED egg rolls last night, but still...they were much more of a calorie bomb than I thought they would be...next time I should make veggie ones instead of adding meat...or just not make them. Perhaps I can find a better egg roll wrapper too calorie wise. Ugh! So disappointed when I entered the recipe this morning. Of course that was after I enhaled 8 of them for dinner last night! I have 4 left that I will be having for lunch and getting rid of. Start anew and move forward.
