    This is just another personal thread following through with what I said I'd do upon completing 90 days of inspiration. I didn't think I would need the daily post to keep me accountable, but I found that without the added accountability, even though I have continued to log into MFP daily, I've slipped out of the habit of logging food consistently.

    Today was not my best eating day; I ate back all of the calories I burned exercising plus a few. My habit recently has been to "forget" to log food on days like today. But I didn't. I completed my log. May it be the first of a 30 day streak that I follow up with a quote or motivational saying or whatever after completing my food diary.

    Thanks for all of your support. Please feel free to post motivation here as well :drinker:

    Day 1: "If at first you don't succeed, make a pot of coffee."

    Thanks!!!! I need to remember that... the last few days have been great... doing my best to stay within daily calorie goal and pushing myself beyond my limits during workouts-- it all starts with good coffee :wink:

    Pythagoras said: “The beginning is half the whole”. Once you make the first step everything else becomes easier; but it is important to make that step otherwise you cannot expect to finish something you did not start.

    What is a Workout?

    A workout is 25 percent perspiration and 75 percent determination. Stated another way, it is one part physical exertion and three parts self-discipline. Doing it is easy once you get started.
    A workout makes you better today than you were yesterday. It strengthens the body, relaxes the mind, and toughens the spirit. When you work out regularly, your problems diminish and your confidence grows.
    A workout is a personal triumph over laziness and procrastination. It is the badge of a winner - the mark of an organized, goal-oriented person who has taken charge of his, or her, destiny.
    A workout is a wise use of time and an investment in excellence. It is a way of preparing for life's challenges and proving to yourself that you have what it takes to do what is necessary.
    A workout is a key that helps unlock the door to opportunity and success. Hidden within each of us is an extraordinary force. Physical and mental fitness are the triggers that can release it.
    A workout is a form of rebirth. When you finish a good workout, you don't simply feel better, YOU FEEL BETTER ABOUT YOURSELF.

    -George Allen (former Washington Redskins Coach)
