    Just for today:
    I will exercise when it comes to my mind, instead of thinking about it for hours.

    Yesterday, 2/2
    1. It is very cold out today, 17 degrees. But later today, get on the ellipitical for minimum of 30 minutes. Even though it is cold, no excuses :\
    2. Log everything I eat, even if I go over :\
    3. Drink more water, especially in the evenings when I tend to want to graze more. :\

    Not the best day again. I've got to turn this around!
    So, just for today
    2/3
    1. Write down everything that I eat
    2. Drink water
    3. Clean closets tonite to keep from eating

    Joan, it's a great idea to be specific about what you will do to "keep busy" instead of snacking. Two things are accomplished. You don't snack, and you get something off your "to do" list! Plus if you have something specific, you can't meander around trying to come up with something to do, while snacking :open_mouth:

    Feb 2, made my calorie goal, plus went for a run. My run was a little short because I met my partner who was walking the dog, and I walked home with her instead of running the last km. Feb 3 my goal is to get to the gym. Had a 4.5 k walk before work.

    Ok, I'm in. Big leap here, as I'm not a group motivation / forum kind of gal, but going it alone isn't working. So I really need your help, and thank you.

    February goal = 5 pounds lost

    Just for today:
    1) make dinner, not get carryout
    2) do stretching
    3) meditate

    Just for tomorrow:
    1) start counting calories.

    I'm in! Nice to meet you all, hopefully it saves me from getting discouraged all over again.

    Goals for February:
    -Start bodyweight training at home. Found a great infographic to help me along the way, starting with the basics.
    -Continue avoiding my kryptonite foods, chips and chocolate.

    Just for Today:
    -Drink water with my dinner instead of Coke Zero
    -Cook a healthy dinner for my family

    Maybe having to report in here will help me stay accountable!

    I am the worst at this too... so for now I am just going to start on switching out water for certain times when I normally have a Coke Zero (suppertime!).

    Yesterday - I got on my elliptical machine for the first time in 6 years! I made it through 10 minutes. Might not seem like much, but for me it's a first step. I'm proud of my 10 minutes. I'm going to try for 15 tonight and 5 more minutes every day until I can get to 30. Lifted weights, logged my day. First day of accomplishing exercise and logging everything.
    - Today I'm going to:
    - drink at least all my water recommended.
    - I'm going to stick to my calorie limit.
    - 15 minutes (at least) on the elliptical
    - 30 minutes of weight training
    - get at least 7 hours of sleep
    - Be thankful for a good start

    I've done 30 minutes running and looked after my toddler a few times and found I've only done 6000 steps max! How on earth do you reach 10,000?!
