    I am Back & Ready to Track!! I have logged my Food Diary ONCE in the past week! I was doing so well too. I am up almost 5 pounds the last 2 weeks! Had far toooooo many Dutch Chocolates & Dinners & Lunches out!!

    I stopped in here only to log on & read a few posts. No motivation and no losses and NO GOALS at all last week!


    :sad: I was hanging my head in shame, briefly.......... Now I am setting a couple goals to bring my focus back':drinker:


    My goals for this week are: (AKA Strive for Five)
    1. Log on daily
    2. Plug my food into my Food Diary ! No Exceptions!
    3. Stay within my calories 6/7 days
    4. Get at least 8/10 glasses water all in
    5. 100 minutes of exercise

    OK, I am the first to say Don't set toooooo many goals, BUT They are ALL food related and sort of go together except my 100 minutes of exercise.


    :drinker: GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!:drinker:

    I am here this week. My goals are log in daily and exercise 220 mins. Today I am going to an amusement park. I know I will get at least 2 hours of walking in. The rest of the week I will do 100 mins. Last week was my first time back on weekly goals. I made my goals except for one day I didn't log in. I lost 2.5 lbs!!

    okay, i'm doing this. for serious this time! my goals:

    1. drink at least 3 liters of water a day (when i was drinking 4, i was also eating VERY healthily and losing weight, so i'm hoping this'll help me get back on that track)

    2. do at least one 30-minute workout every single day, be it treadmill, stairclimber, dvds, whatever!!

    3. DON'T go back to bed more than twice this week. this one actually has very little to do with my weight loss. i just happened to notice that i keep going to bed in the morning now that my husband's hours are all crazy again, and it's messing with my sleep cycles BADLY!

    Ok--I'm in again! The only goal I met for last week was upping my water consumption--thank goodness I at least managed that b/c I ate like crap! Too much eating out and prepared foods!

    Here are my goals for this week:
    1. Maintain 10-12 glasses of water/day.
    2. Get to the gym at least 3x and do minimum of 15 min. walking the other 4 days.
    3. No eating out and try to eat as "clean" as possible at home.
    4. Stay under calorie goal 5 of 7 days; do not exceed by more that 200 on other 2 days.

    My week will run Monday through Sunday.

    I am going to try for 450min of exercise this week still but I leave Wed. morning to go visit my brother in NC for a week. I have no idea what I will be doing but I will walk and maybe some swimming. I am sure it is hot enough down there for me ;) I may not be checking in much then but I plan on keeping up with the diary.
    Good luck to you all =)

    OK, were off to a great start!!

    :flowerforyou: WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW PEOPLE!! THIS IS A GREAT GROUP HERE!! LOTS OF SUPPORT & MOTIVATION!


    i AM OFF TO A GREAT START!! NO CHOCOLATE AT ALL TODAY!!


    The bad thing about all my Dutch Chocolate my sister in law brought me, was I couldn't log it into my food Diary!! The Nutrition Lable was in Dutch and I couldn't read it! LOL



    I still have some, but did not eat one bite today!!



    Good Luck reaching goals this week!
    I did 4/5 of my goals today but I still have time to exercise this week.
