    Because I have to be healthier not just for myself but for me kids! I plan on being that mom who runs marathons and plays sports with the kids in the backyard. It all starts with ME and I CAN do it!

    Because it is day 1 (another) but I know what I need to do - take control, persist, be accountable to myself and have a healthier lifestyle. I will record my food and exercise diary and I will use stratgies I know when I am stressed rather than using as an excuse to eat unhealthy food. Kia Kaha

    love this so simple. needed this today.

    Today I will stay on track today because I deserve to be healthier and take care of myself. Eat poorly only makes me feel poorly.

    Because yesterday I ate way too much candy corn, and now I feel like crap.

    (goes back to yesterday's food log, adds those 6 pieces of candy corn she forgot.)

    Because losing 2 months with the trainer due to a shoulder injury wasn't as disastrous as it could have been, and I need to continuing building on past successes.

    Because that's what I do now.
    I really wanted to come up with a great and inspiring answer for why I'm doing this… but when I thought about it… this is what came to mind. Because it's what I do. And I find that pretty d@mn inspiring that I'm at that point.

    Today is day 1. Like some others I'm tired of carrying all this weight. Was diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis in April. Been taking Prednisone since then, makes me hungry all the time, makes me super puffy, tired of looking like the Michelin man!! Started Enbrel four weeks ago, is supposed to help with the swelling in my joints and the pain. They say it takes 6-8 weeks to start seeing effects from it, I'm counting down the days!! With all the pain in my joints, it's hard to walk most days let alone exercise, but I'm trying!! I walked 20 minutes today, slowly, and it hurt, but I did it.

    Today I will stay on track because my monthly weigh in is in 3 days and while NSVs and feeling great are their own reward, right now I really REALLY just wanna kick *kitten* on the scale this month....

    The thing that's going to keep me on track today is that I've been maintaining at goal for well over three years now. It's like second nature to me. The alternative to staying on track (i.e. letting myself go) just doesn't appeal to me.

    Because yesterday, after doing my 5K walk/jog at lunch and then doing another 5K on the elliptical at the gym I weighed myself AND WAS UNDER 200 LBS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 20+ YEARS!!

    I CAN DO THIS - but ONLY if I stick to logging ALL food and doing it precisely (with scale) and honestly!

    Today i will stay on track because, the feeling i got when i weighed in today was simply amazing!

    Keep it going, why will YOU stay on track today?

    Today I will stay on track because I did not get the same amazing feeling when stepping on the scale this morning lol.

    Got off track this week and need to get back on. The week's only half over so I still have the rest to make the week as a whole count for something good.
