    My main goal for this week is to weigh and measure everything that I eat. I have been "eye balling" portion size for a while, and its not working. I am also going to keep to 1200 net calories a day. I also plan on working out for an hour a day all week.


    What are your plans for this challenge?

    My goal for the week is to exercise every day. I have some really busy days at work this week as well. but I am going to exercise every day! I am also thinking about putting a sticky note up in the bathroom to remind me. lol Yesterday I made it 18 minutes on the treadmill! I did walking fast about 2.6 then I did a jog at 4.0 for a minute then walked/jog/walk/jog... ect. I jogged 3 times for a total of 3.5 minutes. I haven't ran in years! It actually felt good to do a bit of running!

    I was a saint on easter but had half a chocolate bar yesterday. doh! (It was purely emotional eating)

    Undoing that today, worked out this morning, a yummy salad with tofu for lunch!

    I'm doing well so far this week. (Yes, I realize it's only Tuesday.)
    Clean eating, and I did almost an hour of Wii Fit Boxing, which was another challenge I took on from the MFP message boards.
    Work is getting stressful, though, so I'm trying to continue this good start that I'm on without diving into some vending machine treats.

    I am down. My weight on Sunday (that is my official weigh day) was 224.6.

    Mid week is always hard for me. this will be a good challenge.

    I am so excited to see what everyone does here this week! I really don't care who wins because we all are winners in my book! Just being here and changing our old bad ways is enough to be a winner! Good luck to everyone!!!

    I'm trying not to weigh myself until Sunday morning. Clothes are fitting much better. Went to the doctor today for a routine physical and I was down a little over 2 pounds since the 19th when I went in for a sinus infection.

    Hey guys, I am new to the site and just now poking around on the forums. I hope you guys don't mind me throwing my info in since this is more just a casual "game".

    4/24/11 weight was 250.

    I have not weighed since then but any challenge I can have to loose is good! :)

    I finally hit my 1st mini-goal of having a "normal" BMI and simultaneously have discovered plateauing.
