    So I didn't eat pizza and I did eat fruits and veggies. I feel satisfied with this realistic yet challenging goal. I've got a great workout planned for tomorrow and I'm excited to do my first weigh in after a full week on MFP.

    I got in 70459 steps last week (10K more than my original weekly goal). I didn't gain weight over the weekend, despite eating too much yummy Greek food last night. This week's goals are 60,000+ steps again. Remember to work on logging of some sort.

    Yesterday was hard. I had a family supper and they made a lot of bad food. I only ate a muffin but I found I was struggling to make a healthy decision. I got my steps in and drank more water.

    I don't know what day this is but had 2 days of over over over UGH! Weighed in this morning down 3# so I need to get back on the horse and do it again. This week my goal is to maintain my caloric goal all 7 days and exercise for 5 of them. I have 11 more # to hit my goal. I'm sick of being in the"200 club" .

    Well I went over my calorie limit today. But let me tell you, we had some AMAZING steaks off the charcoal grill. Plus, I washed my car for at least probably 40 minutes hardcore without my Fitbit on, so I definitely got more steps in and calories burned than were accounted for, so I'm hoping that will even out my calories! Better luck for tomorrow :smile:

    I think I'll get a Fitbit! So many MFPs have one. Do you love yours too? And just a question. These steps are they considered exercise? I know that sounds like a dumb question coming from a nurse but what I mean by that is this: remember when calculating our fitness goals and MFP asked our activity level? Sedentary, lightly active, etc. I'm wondering if this formula already has expectant "steps" calculated into our calorie goals. I'm hoping the answer is NO and all steps count as added exercise, what do you think? Thanks

    I'm a hairstylist and everytime my arm moves it counts a step even though I'm standing in place. I think accuracy for me is in a pedometer. Just a FYI

    Brand new to my fitness pal but not new to fitness and clean eating. Would love to have some "luck of the irish" to get me going! I will commit to logging all food & exercise, posting every day and exceeding 10k step goal on my recently dusted off fitbit.

    Hello! I have found that setting short term goals for myself is very helpful in helping me meet my goals. I would like to start a thread where we check in daily and discuss our goals regarding weightloss and any other goals. I just completed a challenge where my goal was to lose 5 lbs and break my soda habit. I almost reached my goal! So now I want to set a new goal: I want to lose 8 lbs by st. Patrick's day! So daily, or almost daily, I will post my progress. We can help keep one another accountable! Feel free to add me as a friend!

    My goal is to try and stay under my calorie goal everyday and try to reach 8,000 steps every day.
