So what things do you plan to do to try and reach your goal this month?

I want to try and watch my micros... its kind of hard I don't understand that completely but I want to learn about that more.

I want to try and eat more veggies and less bad carbs (chips)
Attempt to not eat out sooooo much
Try and work out at least 1 hour 5 days a week
Try a yoga class!
Want to find a local work out buddy. I think if I know someone is waiting for me at the gym I will go more. But no luck on that so far! :'(

    To lose 8 lbs this month, I plan to:

    • Complete the 30 day Ab, Squat and Push-up challenges. I'm on day 6.
    • Start training for a 5k using the Zombies Run 5k app
    • Log every bite I take in MyFitnessPal
    • Get 6000+ steps/day

    Thats funny I looked those up and took some of the routines from them and used them for those mini challenges. lol Wow 6,000 steps. I work a sit down job so steps are such a huge challenge for me. I try and get up as much as I can but my job prevents alot of that. You have to be tied to the phone! Zombie run sounds fun! WTG

    My plan to lose the 10lbs.

    Log my food intake and actually stick to the daily calorie goals.

    4 cardio days/week.

    2 strength days/week.

    Honestly, I would like to work out each weekday but I am afraid I will miss a day and then be disappointed. So this is the minimum I expect to do and I hope to do more!
