Goals for the week:
1. P90X everday!
2. Get in 3 non P90X workout's in
3. Bring my lunch and snacks to work everyday
Good luck everyone!0 -
I'll bite.
1.) walk 3 days a week, 1 hour a day.
2.) avoid the ryes n cokes.0 -
Yay! The new thread is up.
Here are mine:
1. Get in week 2 of Chalean Extreme.
2. Repeat last week's success with packing lunches for work.
3. Survive the weekend with the entire in-law clan and manage to find semi-healthy choices as they insisted we have nothing to do with menu planning.0 -
My goals this week are:
Excercise everyday
Consume 1000 to 1400 calories everyday
Research and have a plan for every possible place that I go out to lunch with coworkers on Thursdays, so that I don't encounter any problems (and stick to it)0 -
I'm in!
Goals:.
1. 10 - 8oz. glasss of water each day
2. No food after 8pm
3. Exercise each day. Plus walk a minimum of 1.5 miles the nights I don't have class.
4. Article exercise with the dog at least once each day.
Most of these are a repeat from last week but it is good to hold me accountable until I get in a better habit.0 -
yeah go on!
1)drink more water REGULARLY - i have some days where i drink about 1.5-2 litres and other days it will be two coffees!
2) work out for at least 20mins EACH day - easier said than done with a short-napping 1yr old and working 3 days a week
3) get back into the routine of cooking loads of veg again!0 -
Welcome Sabrina and China, good luck to your goals.
I want to modify mine some. I already researched the possible places we go to on Thursday lunches. So I want to continue to stick to the plan of eating out attack. But I'll try to continue to make wise decision a day for my health and wellbeing on the other days as well.0 -
thanks0

I am going out of town next weekend for a family wedding. I already have been invited out to dinner on Saturday night-Mexican:huh: However, I can look for grilled food, avoid the chips and salsa and enjoy!
So my goals this week are:
1. Exercise 5 times this week
2. Reduce sodium by 15%
3. Stay within my calorie limit
Hoping everyone has a great week!0 -
Ok this is my "Get back on track week"...
1. Do Wii Ea Active 3x this week
2. Run at least 2-3 days and/or 6 miles
3. Stay under my calorie goal EVERYDAY
Thanks for starting this post - I hope this is my way to get back in the game

Thanks for continuing this challenge! :happy:0 -
Welcome back 10more, love the picture by the way. Is it your dog (or just a pic of an adorable dog)?
eweger- I love the wii. How cool to see a goal from this!
mrogers- on Thursdays my coworkers occasionally go Mexican. I've decided to get what I always want, but order a to-go box at the same time and put half of it away for dinner. Mexican food is not easy to go lower on calories for me, good luck!
My check in:
Excercised today!!
Stayed within my limits, even going out to eat with my dad. I researched the nutritional menu online before going out since I knew in advance where I was going.
Researched and have planned all the possible places. Wrote my food choices in my phone with calories and all are under 1000 sodium (hard to do eating out).0 -
SabrinaK1986 – Welcome to the group! You have picked some great goals. Good luck to you this week. Check in as little or as much as you would like.
Ladygloria – my dear MFP twin So glad you are back. How Chalean treating you?! Good luck with the weekend!
Lttee – Great idea for researching your Thursday meal before you head out! Way to be prepared. Good luck with the sticking to it part as well! Nice job with your check in today. Looks like you did a great job eating out!
Aim2lose – So glad you are back! Hope you are enjoying this thread. I agree with repeating goals until they become a habit and something you don’t have to think about. Good luck getting the training everyday.
Chinamonkey – Welcome to the thread! Good luck with your goals. Must be tough to get work outs in with a 1 year old that takes short naps and working. Sounds like you are BUSY!!!
Mrogers – Good luck with your dinner out Saturday… chips and salsa are a major weakness of mine. Have fun at the wedding next weekend.
Ewegner – YAY for getting back on track… it’s my back on track week too. I had a REALLY rough start to last week, so I’m hoping to get this week off with a bang. We can do it together. Enjoy your Wii time… I love the Wii, it makes working out SO much fun.
10more – Glad you are back! Happy to keep the thread going, hope it’s as helpful to you as it is to me! Keep up all your hard work, you are doing great. I agree with Lttee I really like the picture of the dog, what a cutie!

Welcome back HeartsDesire! So glad you are back in for another week I love your support and the great attitude you bring to the thread.0 -
Ok. So, I've never participated in any of the challenges, but I want to give it a shot. I think I need the support & challenges, to get back on track. So, here it goes...
1) Drink at least 6 glasses of water, every day (1 canteen by noon, 2nd canteen by 4pm...and water with Dinner)...I think my canteen holds about 22-24 ounces of water
2) Track food EVERY Day...Monday-Saturday (no promises for Sunday, since it's my daughter's birthday party)
3) Make lunches for work all week
Wish me luck..i need it

Ohhh I want in! The weekly challenge, one week at a time should be easier to handle. My current goal is to lose 34 lbs before I turn 34 in January. I started at the end of June at 170.4. So far I have lost 14 lbs but I have hit a plateau and it is a little discouraging, this along with my Aunt's visit I am not making healthy food choices and am not pushing myself as I should in the exercise department.
Week of 8/29-9/3 Goals:
1) Drink 8 cups of water each day
2) Work out 30 mins each day, rotating cargio and strength
3) LOG, LOG, LOG0
