Start thinking about what your goals are for the next 30 days starting Jan 12th! Here are some examples of exercise and nutrition goals:

- 10,000 steps a day
- Drop Sugar
- No cookies, crackers, or white bread
- DROP SODA :)
- switch to black coffee, drop the creamers and sugar
- ADD more veggies into your diet
- ADD more lean protein into your diet
- Bump up your CARDIO (you decide how much and list it)
- Start strength training
- START food prepping
- TRACK ALL YOUR FOOD and complete your diary every night
- SO MANY MORE! Start brainstorming! Let's get our goals posted over the weekend or early next week!

REMEMBER: YOU are only in competition with yourself. NO ONE ELSE. Everyone's goals will be different. DO NOT feel like you have to jump in and start running marathons.This group is here to help support each other, and motivate one another. BE KIND. We are all in this together!

    These goals are AMAZING!!! I am SOOO proud of you all!!! Are you all feeling motivated and inspired yet?! The reason I had you set your own personal goals is because no one knows you like YOU do. You know what motivates you, and it's a proven fact that setting goals increases dopamine in the brain. :)Next question is... do you believe you can achieve these goals? If not, try breaking them down a bit so they seem more achievable. For example... if giving up sugar is just too much... try setting a limit for yourself, such as 40g of sugar per day. :) Is everyone comfortable weighing in on Jan 12th in the morning? You DON'T have to post your weight here, but I want you all to see what dedication and consistency can do for your body :)

    Exercise every day, even 30 minutes, its something. Log everything I eat, even if its not in my planning and drink more water in this cold weather.

    I want to do the following:
    excercise 45 minutes at least 4 times a week
    reduce sugar intake
    cut back on calorie intake
    keep a food log
    increase water intake
    reduce soda intake

    I know some of my goals are too vague. I will work on making them more specific.

    I joined a gym Monday. I have worked out 5 days this week so far. One of those days I only worked out 20 minutes but the other four days I worked out 45 minutes. I met with a trainer at the gym and he has worked out a schedule for me for the next 5 weeks.

    I haven't logged my food intake well yet but I will start that. I have done that in the past and know I can do it.

    I haven't had anything to eat yet today. I'm kind of scared to eat today because I don't want to make bad choices. I am a food addict, particularly when it comes to sugar.

    I need to go to the grocery and get some food that are healthier choices than what I currently have.

    When I start something I have a tendency to get obsessed with it for a while and then burn out. I can gain weight about as quickly as I can lose it. I don't want to do that this time. I want a permanent healthy lifestyle change.
