I'm joining in, I've been MIA for a little while due to just normal life business and being sick. My goal is to start exercising, I'm going to start off slowly and say at least once this week and track all my food every day.

My goal this week is to start exercising. I can only do chair exercises because it's hard for me to stand up for very long due to my weight. I have been putting this off for a long time, so this will be a big step for me.

My goal this week is to work 5 days (it's hard to self-motivate when you don't have a boss), to log my food every day (except the 17th, I used that as a 'no track' day) and to exercise 4 times. So far I've worked once and done nothing else, so obviously a wonderful start.

I also am trying to be more active here because I find it really helps with my motivation when I keep my head in the game here.

For last week I made 3 out of 4 of my goals. I logged 6 out of 7 days, went to the pool twice and did not have any halloween candy. I did not meet my goal of drinking enough water on my days off from work, so it'll be a goal for me again this week!

My goals for this week are:
1. Drink a minimum of 32 ounces of water on each of my days off from work.
2. Honestly log everything I eat for 6 out of 7 days
3. Go the the pool for either laps or water aerobics 2 times during the week and walk outside for at least 10 minutes 1 time during the week.
4. Stay under calorie goal for 6 out of 7 days
5. Write a shopping and meal plan for next week and shop/cook for it!

thanks for this thread.
May the force be with you all!

Today, I was very close to not going to the gym, but I went for thirty minutes. I don't think I'm quite ready to go for a full hour yet. I think I'm doing well with not letting stress get to me. I'm realizing that whether or not I binge, I will still feel uncomfortable sometimes and that food never really solved anything. I feel a step closer to really understanding myself, so I feel like this week is a success.

This week my goal was to get my steps in that my vivofit set for me each day. I can say all but 2 days I did accomplished that. I was a little nervous I went to the doctor's today and everything look good. Even though this last year I gain all my weight back and 10 pounds more. I still was making choices like no diet sodas and in the last 6 months I was cutting back on the sweet tea, and food choices I was eating salads instead of hamburgers when we would go to fast food. So, my test results today was I am no longer borderline diabetic, my cholesterol levels is just a little high, blood pressure is good. So, right now even though I didn't have a big lost this week. I feel great about the test results.

My food choices have not been that great. It seems like I say I have to cut something out. Then I crave that item so much I have to have it. Like I am not a big sweets person. So, I said I am not going to eat any ice cream. That is all I wanted this week.
