    How did everybody's day one go? Mine went pretty good but I forgot to track a few things once I got home from work. To help avoid this, I spent some time last night getting dinner ready for tonight and a snack for after dinner. This way I dont have the choose of opening my pantry and staring at it until I decide to eat something :tongue:

    It seems like everybody wants a group started so if there are no objections, I'll do that today so we can check in with each other and help with any issues we encounter.

    20 days left!

    I think the important thing for all of us to remember is that perfection isn't the only way to achieve success. Instead, by actively trying our best for 21 days we are forming the habit to try and not just give up and say screw it. I have a feeling eating out is going to be a hard one for me too because my BF loves to go out to dinner and of course, is healthy as a horse.

    (1) I won't weigh-in until February 6th to see the overall progress and focus less on the scale
    (2) I will treadmill 3 times a week, rowing machine 2 days a week and do a workout video 2 days a week
    (3) I will eliminate alcohol from my diet other than Saturday evenings (Saturday will be my allowed high cal day)
    (4) I will stay within calories every day and log religiously (luckily I do this one already so it should be easy to stay on)
    (5) I will finish my afghan by crocheting in front of the tv at night instead of snacking in front of the tv! (this'll be hard, I LOVE snacking)
    (6) I will try to eat more snacks during the day and have a smaller dinner (portion size portion size portion size)

    Awesome :) See ya'll soon!

    I am in - one day off from the rest of you, but I'm looking forward to the "group support". I will:
    1. track every day
    2. drink at least 2 glasses of water every day
    3. exercise more than I have been, do something at least five days/week
    4. log on EVERY DAY

    If I can accomplish this much for just 21 days, I'll be so happy!

    I have been pretty good, except I decided that I'm allowed to drink green tea in addition to water because it's so cold out! haha

    I like it. My challenge would be to avoid Diet Soda, stop eating out, doing some strength exercises at least 3 times a week and only weighing myself once a week. Thanks for the suggestion. I am with you.:happy:

    Well, still trying to get the exercise amount that I was hoping for down. I have been adding more walking but am still not making it a priority. This is my own fault! The other goals are still going fine.
