    Goal 1: do a quick morning workout
    Goal 2: do 20 military push-ups in a row
    Goal 3: have a smile on my face when doing my evening workout

    Completed, Goal 1 and Goal 2 - love that I can actually do 20 military push-ups in a row, I screamed with joy when I finished. In the middle of Goal 3, I was not feeling well at all and ended up stopping the workout, so no smile from me :(

    Goal 1: Do an Insanity workout
    Goal 2: read a chapter in the book of John in the Bible
    Goal 3: read an extra book at bedtime for the girls

    Well I managed 2 out of 3 of my goals yesterday so not a bad start.

    My goals today 6/1/12

    1 To get to the gym
    2 To clean my sons room
    3 To stay within my calorie allowance.
  • I met yesterdays goals!
    Today's goals
    1. Plan meals for the day-done
    2.Treadmill 30 mins
    3. Do Mother in Laws shopping-that's a workout-all by it's self!:happy:
  • This is a great idea. I already have some goals in mind for today.
    My name is Kate, I am 24 years old. I have a pretty band new career, as a TA with a school baord. I live with my boyfriend of 2 and a half years. He has a son, 2 and a half as well, who visits with us one full week each month. Our lives are pretty busy and being "part time parents" (as I like to call it), makes things really interesting. My step-son lives about 4 hours away from us and we do all the driving to get him... which means a lot of meals on the go.

    My goals for today, Friday Jan 5th are:
    1. DRINK WATER!
    2. Easy on the wine at dinner (it's my Dad's birthday today= full roast dinner with cake and wine right along side it)
    3. Go for a walk at lunch rather than sit at the computer :)

    Yesterday's goals:

    1. Water - better - but I still need work on this.
    2. Walk - Yes - did my 60 min. walk and really worked up a sweat
    3. Logging - Did log all my calories.



    Today:

    1. Work on that water intake

    2. Walk at lunch again

    3. Cut the carbs - I have been logging but I really need to work on cutting my processed carbs.

    Also, I think I need to make myself step on the scales so I can really track my weight - will do that on Monday and every Monday thereafter. Time to face the music!
  • #1 Goal - Increase water intake
    #2 Goal - Decrease snacking because I am bored

  • So I met all my goals yesterday except the nap, I took a nap but it was only like 20 min instead of the normal 2 hours.

    Today I want to be happy, drink water, and enjoy what I am eating!

  • Yesterday's goals

    My first three goals I accomplished with no problems. My hubby made me get my application done when I got home last night. I researched getting a gym membership and found that we have to pay for the first 2 months before they will even start paying. trying to decide if this is even worth it since summer I walk 2-3 hours a day and bike to work. Don't know if it is worth it. Still trying to decide.

    Today's goals
    1) Log everything.
    2) Stay within my calories.
    3) Drink 8 glasses of water.
    4) Try not to snack on all the bad food at work today. Saturdays our bosses bring us in treats.
    5) Find something healthy to eat out our favorite restaurant.

    Goal 1: Do an Insanity workout
    Goal 2: read a chapter in the book of John in the Bible
    Goal 3: read an extra book at bedtime for the girls


    I didn't do well on my goal yesterday, Goal 1: I ended up doing a 50 min. Shakeology workout instead, I have to really gear myself up for an Insanity workout bc they are so intense! Goal 2: Totally forgot to read the Bible last night, stayed up late with my husband watching a movie and went right to bed afterwards. I would like to read my Bible every evening. Goal 3: I did complete this goal which I am happy about, I love spending time with my girls and it's important to me that I made extra time to be with them.

    Jan. 7th 2012
    Goal 1: Going out to dinner with a girl-friend and want to make sure I don't go over my 1,200 cal (I dont like to eat my exercise cals).
    Goal 2: Make sure I meet my water intake, I struggle to get all my water in during the weekends.
    Goal 3: Leave the housework for Sunday! :)
  • Yesterday goals ...
    1. DRINK WATER! - did it!
    2. Easy on the wine at dinner - did it, only had one glass!
    3. Go for a walk at lunch rather than sit at the computer - did it, 20 minutes at lunch!

    Today's goals (January 7th, 2012)....
    1. Plan out meal for date night
    2. Water
    3. Finish knitting project

    I did pretty good yesterday, but today and Sunday are the last days of my holidays and I'm going to sit and enjoy myself. So it's going to be kind of mellow for the two next days.
  • Day #3 goals:
    1. Put table and chairs away ( I really need to get this done!)
    2. finish laundry and put it away
    3. stay under my new calorie goal
    4. drink enough water
  • Not sure how to join this group/challenge but I think it is an awesome idea. I journal but my goals are mostly what I need to get done for other people, I like having a couple of goals daily just for me.

    Day 1

    1.Be nicer to myself, I am over weight but it is simply a process of reversal. I am still myself.
    2. Dump all the hidden candy...the chocolate santa's and the halloween candy have to go!
    3.Drink more water
    4.Eat slower.
