    @penko47 Logging food really does provide some perspective towards the nutrients you are consuming :smile:

    Happy New Year!!! I've been lost in a BIG bowl of sugar. I dug myself out of it this morning and I'm ready to continue this awesome journey of health. Miss seeing you all. 2018 will be successful. I'm going to be a rock star this year so I better shape up. :wink:

    Today I will ... be successful
    Drink 80 oz of water
    Track my healthy (non sugared) food. :#
    Do at least a 15 min youtube video
    Tell my family that I love them all so much because life is short & they are amazing
    Get caught up from vacation at work

    Welcome back! So glad to see you dug your way out of that BIG bowl of sugar! LOL! I hope you left a trail because I'm trying to find my way out of that same bowl... :)

    YES - I did. Look for the "Green" trail. Hahaha.

    @Bex953172 Sometimes you can have those cramps due to dehydration! With all the shopping and walking around, make sure you are drinking plently of water. I hope you enjoy your relaxing bath :smile:

    jft. i'm almost out of calories due to a bigger breakfast. eek! So an hour of yoga is in order. stay under my carbs goal, i'm almost done with water already.

    Yesterday, came close on my calories, over 84 calories. over by 9 carbs (yay!) swam 20 minutes instead of 30, which was disappointing, until i remembered that on monday i ate half a bag of cadbury chocolate. No wonder i felt awful yesterday!

    Shopping was awful. My eldest has been a right pain in the neck today and I was at the end of my tether with her. So daddy held her hand round the shop and I pushed the trolley. Half way round we did have to swap because I just couldn’t push it anymore.
    Then I got such a bad case of Braxton Hicks I thought I was going into labour!
    I was so hot and sweating and my stomach was so sore and tight. Luckily found a seat and sat there for a moment. The cashiers were watching like “is this lady about to drop lol”
    But managed to compose myself and finished the shop.

    You be careful Bex!!! Don't want you going into labour!!!! I think you are doing so great though with setting goals! Hope you have fun shopping for baby stuff! That is always so much fun! But hopefully today you rest a lot, and soak in that nice hot bath!

    Haha I don’t want to go into labour!!

    I’m really set on having a March baby lol! I like March.
    The goals are helping, although they’re not food related, it’s keeping me focused otherwise I feel a bit lost in the day and stuck of what to do next!

    the chances of yoga class tonight are dim at best. All I can think about is sleep.

    Happy New Year. This is a great post and looks really supportive and just what I'm looking for ☺️

    I'd love to join ☺️

    My January goals are
    1. To log absolutely everything I eat.
    2. To drink 8 glasses of water a day.
    3. Not to drink any alcohol.
    4. To exercise for 10 minutes every day to start with - building up to 20 minutes every day by the end of the month.
    5. To lose the weight that I put on over Christmas (7lb)
    6. To complete the 28 day Bootea Detox (even though I've been told it's a waste of time - I've already bought it!!!

    The one I'm not doing so great at is number 2.

    Good luck to everyone.

    Today was slightly less good. I had a stressful and unproductive day at work and ended up leaving later than planned. Following this there were tube (subway!) issues which meant it took me ages to get home and additionally all the transport was overcrowded which made the journey stressful. As a result I really didn't feel like exercising when I got home.

    HOWEVER despite all this I refrained from snacking/ over eating (and I did think about it on the way home) which I'm going to count as a win! Let's hope I can keep that up :wink: I'll do the exercise on Sunday instead.
    Today's commitments were -

    - Log everything I eat :)
    - No snacks except Ryvita if hungry :D
    - Be in the green (without eating back exercise kcals) :)
    - Leave work by 5.30 :/
    - Do exercise DVD :'(

    Tomorrow's commitments are:

    - Log everything I eat
    - No snacks except Ryvita if hungry
    - Be in the green (without eating back exercise kcals)
    - Go to gym before starting work
    - Go for walk at lunch (to maintain sanity!)
    - Ration access to work emails in order to get some b&oody work done!!!
    - Listen to music to boost mood

    My goal is to loose 4lbs and remain that way while I am quitting smoking. I gain 20lbs last time I quit and don't want to put it back on this time. So, I am focusing on exercise and eating healthy and not smoking. :) Here's to 2018...

    I admire your goal to lose a reasonable amount of weight then do maintenance while you journey through such a challenge :smile: Welcome and remember we are here for you!!
