Would anyone else like to make commitments for the week that we can review at the end of the week? I know it will help me to have some accountability to our accountability group, so here are mine:

- Journal all food eaten every day
- Work out with weights three times
- Yoga three times
- Cardio at gym twice
- 17,000 steps/day

    For me

    - journal all my food.
    - cycle on 2 days (10 mile commute each way)
    - other days do a 3 mile walk
    - walk 15,000 steps
    - Friday (day off) aim for a 6 mile walk

    Sounds OK for week 2...

    Hi Susan and friends! This week I plan to:
    Exercise as much as possible, jog if the weather permits or gym. I will burn a minimum of 1000 calories each time.
    I will make sure I don't go over 1500 calories a day food wise.
    I will weigh myself every day to make sure I keep focused. I don't get heartbroken when to weight doesn't go down as I know I'm being good.
    Good luck everyone!!!

    This is a fab idea!

    Beat my step goal every day I'm a part of some pretty competitive work-week hustles on FitBit at the moment so I'm putting in my all just to see what I can achieve (so far so good). I'm also going on a massive hike with my BFF tomorrow day (we have a VERY rare day off together- she's a paramedic) that's going to help a lot!

    As of Tuesday no more coca-cola for the week

    Stick to my food plan.

    Think that's all from me this week, baby steps eh?

    Charlotte - no pop/soda is a GREAT idea... I've always heard -- don't drink your calories...

    I'm afraid I didn't do too well on my commitments. I did journal every day but I only worked out with weights twice and didn't do yoga or cardio at all. On average I got about 16,000 steps/day, so that wasn't too bad. And I lost just over 2 lbs, so that's good.

    Susan - losing 2 lbs is great! Well done.

    Thanks! I'm giving intermittent fasting a try for a couple of days to see if I can get my eating back under control...I can feel it slipping away. That's how I lost 60 lbs a couple of years ago, but I'm not positive I can do it again. I'm hungry already and it's only 6:30.

    I like "only say the positives"...I'm going to give that a go. I know I'll break it once in a while, but what a great goal!
