Anyone have any goals for May that they want to share and check in with?

I would like to burn at least 1750 calories per week working out and stay under my calorie goal every single day. Also, I am giving up alcohol for the month of May after a terribly unfortunate experience the other night that involved lots of vomiting.

Your goals?

WE CAN DO IT!

    My goal for May is to get back to 1200 calories a day and exercising four times a week. I will post my meals and exercise everyday. I did this before, last year, and lost 17 pounds. I gained ten back do to unfortunate stress in my life! I am in it now to get back to where I was and finally reach my goal!

    Mine are more along the lines of keeping a positive attitude towards my body, so here goes:

    1. Write down one thing every day that is positive about my body e.g. how strong I felt exercising, how flat my tummy looked etc.
    2. Log everything, good or bad, and don't kick myself if I slip up
    3. Less excuses, less thinking and MORE DOING!

    My may goal is to track everyday...even on the bad days. Would like to lose about 8lbs this month also.

    Oh this is good! :)

    - watch my sodium intake... try to keep it below what is alloted.
    - find better foods, start cooking more and planning out my meals.
    - be patient with the progress and not expect it to happen over night!

    :) Here we go, May!

    -Stay positive and stay patient!
    -Remember how good I feel RIGHT NOW; I'm at a point where I'm feeling happier & more energetic than I ever have as a result of better eating habits, regular exercise, etc. (not to mention the confidence and pride that comes from knowing I’m taking care of myself:smile: ). I really want to try to keep the maintenance of this state of mind and state of health as the goal of my MFP activity; it's so much easier to get burned out or frustrated when I only think about whether I’m losing weight or not.
    -...THAT SAID, I *wouldn't mind losing another 5 pounds, or tightening up to a place where I feel super confident for my birthday at the end of the month:laugh:
    -Last but not least-- keep logging! Keeping up my good habits after I move and experience a complete change in schedule will be a real challenge, but that makes it an even better a candidate for my big May goals.

    Good luck, all :flowerforyou:
