    My goals for Tuesday

    Continue to journal honestly did
    Drink my water and green tea and not drink coffee did
    Follow my diet plan did
    Get to the gym. didn't get there

    today was crazy at work. I worked until 7:15 pm, was supposed to be done at 5pm. So dinner was late, then I had to stop at the store for more bananas and strawberries. Way to worn out to go to the gym... and my back is still hurting really bad. Exercise would probably help so my top priority for tomorrow will be exercise. Good news. I did not stress eat. I sniffed my roses.

    1. finish all of my chapter 1 work for my art history class.
    2. drink more water!
    3. look up healthy recipes for low-calorie desserts
    4. have a good day at work and get my new cartilage earring changed so it won't be swollen so bad and hurt!

    1. Log everything I eat
    2. Run 2 miles on treadmill when I get home from work
    3. Drink lots of water

    OK - those were my goals for yesterday - yay!!! And when I ran my 2 miles I did it in 25 minutes - that's a speed record for me and I'm so excited! Met my goals - and it feels great :)

    On another topic - do folks on mfp generally eat their cardio calories? I'm just wondering? I eat some of them, but I'm not seeing the numbers on the scale. . .

    THanks so much - and good luck with your goals today!

    Mine are:
    1. Log log log everything I eat
    2. Try to eat under 1500 calories today just to see if I can do it
    3. Drink lots of water

    Have a good day!

    Tuesday, January 10
    1. Water- 10-12 glasses (you would think this would go without saying by now)- Done
    2. Wii for 30 minutes-- Nope
    3. Finish paper work and write order for work. Only worked in back yesterday, so have to catch up again up front! wrote order
    4. Do something unexpected for one person today!- I made conversation with a cute couple, who just seemed to want to talk, even though the back of my brain was going( I have things I am trying to do!)

    So yesterday didn't quite go as planned. I did end up exercising- I had to organize attic at work, take down boxes of invoices and put more up there. About 45 mins of moving boxes and climbing the ladder. I can forgive myself the no Wii. I did get orders done for work, but not the rest of paperwork.Everyone is back to work today, so paperwork is it!

    Welcome to all the new folks! Love the goals! Keep it up!

    pmjsmom-prayers and hugs!

    Wednesday January 11
    1. Water (10-12 glasses)
    2. Finish up paper work at work
    3. At least 30 minutes of some form of exercise!!!
    4. Keep up with better eating!

    Have a wonderful day!

    Today's Goals
    1. Log everything.
    2. Stay within my calories.
    3. Drink at least 8 glasses of water.
    4. Go for a walk today either at lunch or after work.
    5. Have a good day at work.

    Hi my name is Ash, I have never been a small lady but since having three kids things have gotten out of control. It is time to stop using but I had kids as a crutch and get off my tushy! I have NEVER stuck with anything, so I am hoping like crazy it clicks this time.
