I'm so glad I was able to find this thread! I need some help setting small daily goals to accomplish my big goals.
I know it's a little late in the day but here are my goals for today...
1.) Stay within my calorie goal
2.) Run or walk
3.) Make a healthy dinner for my family
Thanks for the motivation!2 -

Welcome aboard!
Be sure to make it a favorite by selecting the "star" in the corner and making it gold. I find that very helpful.
I hope this thread can help you and keep you accountable. Good luck!2 -

Gratitude. It's the key to contentment in life. Life is a series of trade-offs. Nobody gets everything they want. You just have to figure out what's most important and live it. No one, rich or poor, can be truly happy unless they are grateful for their blessings. Develop and practice gratitude and I promise it will change your life! It changed mine...
Think of all the miserable trolls on the Internet. How sad for them. You can find tragedy, mean-spiritedness and drama everywhere if you're looking for it and perpetuating it, but why not look for the good instead? I got the following message in a fortune cookie several years ago: "Goodness seeks goodness." I normally just laugh off my fortunes, but that time I saw the truth in it and immediately started looking for all the positive things all around me.
Sure, there will be bumps in the road, but if you keep focused on the goodness, you'll come through. You have to stay focused and actively practice good thoughts at first, but over time it just becomes habit to have a positive outlook!1 -
Hit my macros and give them a chance. Drink at least a gallon of water. Minimum 15 mile ride(highlight of my day).1

Do 1 minute sprints on the treadmill while trying to reach 5k in under 25 minutes at the same time0

I don't have goals separated according to the day of the week. I pretty much just aim to maintain and move every day. If a work day (it's a part-time job) happens to fall on the weekend, my 20k goal still remains.
Aww. I'm sorry you find the weekends hard. I hope for the best!

So yesterday I made 2 out of 3 goals. I forgot the fireworks were rescheduled for last night so that threw a kink in my walk/run plan.
So today...
1.) Get a good night's sleep. [I struggled the past few nights]
2.) Homemade family dinner
3.) Some type of exercise
It's great to see everyone's goals. Have a great day!0 -

That's exactly the way my brain works on treadmills. I get to my goal and then shut down for some reason. Treadmill running is not fun for me, but sometimes I have to make do. Now on a beautiful trail, I almost always do more than planned. I could run forever sometimes...2 -
Hi all! Great thread! I went from 248 to 140 a couple years back but been slowly creeping back up due to medical issues and stress. Diet is my biggest problem these days. Used to be that I could ignore the cravings but after dieting for so long I think something in my brain just snapped. Seems its always around 8pm I just go nuts and binge on anything I can find and blow my whole day.
Goals for today:
- To make it through the day without going to the cafeteria to buy anything. I have my lunch so there is no reason that I should!
- To not snack on junk after dinner and make it through the day under 1500 calories.1 -

@jenilla1
I absolutely hate the dreadmill! Some people love it but I get sooooo bored! I need to be more active than that, like you said, a trail.1 -
I used to be able to run on a treadmill, but now that I've discovered my love for trail running they are pure torture! Great job on your 3 miles @MichaelaSheppard ! My brain shuts down once I've reached my goal frequently, and then sometimes it's hard for me to restart.2
