    Just for Today 3/30:
    1. log everything :)
    2. do 30 mins cardio :neutral: I didn't set aside cardio time, but I'd say 16K steps in a day can equate to some serious cardio. Or maybe not.
    3. 5 mins meditation :( forgot, again

    Just for Today 3/31
    1. log everything
    2. gym - strength training
    3. 5 mins meditation

    For those that are struggling: my best advice, keep plugging along. Even as you feel you're not doing well, because it all starts to come together. And not plugging along, well that guarantees you're not doing well.

    @OConnell5483 - take care of yourself. I have fallen many times when jogging. Thankfully no serious injuries.

    Today will try not to blow it this evening - will have string cheese and yoghurt for my remaining calories.

    Promise to myself - do not buy string cheese anymore - highly addictive and over processed (but so yummy).

    Did terrible Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Got back on track yesterday and did walk 2.7 miles. I did stay in my calorie range, but ate some of my exercise calories.

    so just for today:
    1) Get in more exercise, did 1 hour this am, plan to walk at lunch.
    2) Stay at or under 1200 calories
    3) Keep a positive mindset
    4) Do something relaxing this evening.

    Everyone, I hops you are doing ok.

    O'Connell, hope you are doing ok, I did that one time with my Great Pyrenes, step on his leash when he was moving forward as I was jogging. Fell and broke my wrist, Bit a 2 inch hole in the center of my tongue. If a man had not seen me fall and drove me home, I don't know what I would have done. My neighbor took me to the ER. I was a wreck for awhile and I still don't take my dogs with me when I jog! Get better soon.


    A kindred soul! I don't know if my pride or face hurt more!

    just for today Tuesday

    1. work on making myself happy and not looking for others to bring my happiness

    @OConnell - I hope your injuries get better soon, you poor thing :( That is horrible. My thoughts are with you.

    @kwfitgal - thanks for the encouraging words. I am hanging in there. I just have some things going on around me that are bringing me down. I have to learn I cannot fix others, I need to listen but not get so bummed when I cannot solve other peoples problems

    @aerochic42 - Belly Dancing made me smile. How cool is that? That just sounds fun. I have a hula hoop I bought a couple years ago at a motivational speaking event. I should get that out and give it another try. I think that is the key is to find movement that is fun and does not feel like work :smile:

    I haven't joined any of the MFP posts yet. I've been tracking and loosing since January although I really joined 2 years ago. Finally my husband and I are committed to no sugar and no starch. It's working I've lost 8 pounds, which is slow but positive step in the right direction. I need to commit to a few things one day at at time. So here it goes:

    Today I will track everything I eat, and be grateful for the life I have.

    For those commenting on my bellydance plan for tonight, I used to dance with a troupe but have moved and haven't found either a new troupe or new classes. I miss it.

    Ok my quote function no longer seems t to work.

    Hit 2.5 out of 3 goals today. Just need to tune in more to my stomach and more regularly.

    Ate loads more veggies, avoided sugar and contacted my coach so positive moves. ☺

    First post!

    I'm at the finish line and seem to be slumping.

    Just for today I will:

    1) Drink only one cup of coffee
    2) Stay within my calorie goal
    3) Go to my yoga class and quit schlepping off...

    But...hooray for having a really good 1st part of your day!

    P'S. Just say no to schlepping & slumping!
