I thought it would be fun to set some objectives/goals for week one to keep us all on track. Here are mine:
- Stay under calories every day
- Log exercise all seven days
- Drink the recommended amount of water every day
Feel free to use my objectives, or think of your own! Mine are pretty simple for this week

Those are all good goals. If this group works out well, I'd like to create another one -- Fit For Summer which would last Mar 1- ??? (Maybe Jun 1?)0 -

I would DEFINITELY be interested in that.
My goals for this month:
- to DO the 30DS every day this month like I 'want' to do..
- drink all my water like I should
- get a more consistent workout routine established
- be within my calorie goal, even on the days we decide to splurge a little and eat out
- complete and surpass the dreaded W5D3 of C25K (currently on W4D2)
- lose enough inches to fit into the several pairs of jeans in my drawer because my current jeans are all wearing out.0 -

that's a great idea! i would totally sign up for it, and the time length is pretty good as you put it. I hope the group does well and we go girl! ^^0 -
I am on day 3 of 30 Day Shred, so I want to complete all 30 days.
I am on day 2 of Couch to 5K - I want to complete 3 days of training per week.
I just got 2 Bob Harper DVDs and a 4pk of zumba DVDs so I would like to do thoste DVDs on the days I'm not doing the couch to 5k0 -
Great goals, all! I'd like to keep better track of my calories, but the site isn't cooperating with me. I'll have to log everything the old fashioned way (pen and paper) until it's working again. If you continue the group after February I will definitely stay involved!
My goals:
~Keep track of calories manually (I think that this will actually force me to pay closer attention to what I'm doing.)
~Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day (I'm including herbal tea in this, as it is the same as long as I don't add anything.)
~Cardio at least 5 days this week, with strength training every morning (sit-ups, push-ups, squats and leg abductions.)
You know? The stuff I should have already been doing? :P
As a side note, have any of you heard of the "Tone It Up!" girls? I found them on YouTube a while ago and subscribed. They have workouts, recipes and tips, and they are so adorable! They posted a workout that I'm going to do in the mornings before work starting tomorrow. If you're curious, check it out: http://youtu.be/kAzr1vDtNQY
Keep it up!!! *^_^*0 -
Log calories and exercise daily
Do JillianMichaels.com at least 3-4 times a week
Stay below in my sodium levels!
Continue drinking at least 64 oz water daily0 -
Work out 6 days this week. Every workout run 1 mile and go at least 45 min on the eliptical. Do at least 200 crunches each workout. (I would love to do even more when I have time! Like lifting too!)0
-
My goals for the week are:
1) Drink more water
2) Get to bed earlier. This is important, because the later I stay up, the more likely I am to 'cheat' (eat).
3) Do some type of cardio every day.
Good luck to everyone!!!0 -
* Drink my weight in water every single day.
* Consume less sodium.
* Challenge myself at the gym.
* Do the 30 Day Shred DVD on weekends. (Because I'm already working out in the gym 5 days a week.)
* Try not to eat past 8 o'clock PM.
* Only weigh myself once a week. (I tend to weigh everyday... which can be discouraging when your weight fluctuates up and down.)
*Log my food and exercise daily.
I would definitely join this group again next month!!!0 -

Ok - for the first week
- Stay under calories each day (and don't eat exercise calories)

2.) Continue 30DS every day. (tonight will by day 3 of level 1)

5.) Weigh in only once a week, maybe twice to be curious!
6.) Motivate some friends who haven't logged on to MFP for a week.0 -

I've been doing Insanity for about 2.5 weeks now, and while I've been enjoying the workouts I haven't focused at all on dieting. Yes, I've been trying to stay under and such but I haven't actually changed WHAT I eat.
--Plan Meals
--Grocery Shopping
--Not only stay under on calories, but CARBS and SUGARS too
Oh goodness, I just remembered how it's my nephew's birthday party this weekend... Add objective: DON'T EAT CAKE!0 -
My goals for this week (really the whole month) are:
- Drink 8-10 glasses water a day
- Run 4 days a week
- Weights 2 days a week
- Stay within calories limits every day!! <--- #1 goal !!
- Get 7-8 hours sleep each night
Also, I think setting another group for summer would be a great idea! I would definitely be up for that!0 -

Ah! The alcohol will be my problem, too. I'm already trying to plan my weekend - Brunch on Saturday and then Super Bowl Sunday?! It's going to by a tempting weekend.0 -
Great idea for weekly objectives!
Okay mine is to burn 1,000 per day - I usually do around 700 - 900 so this won't involve too much extra exertion, maybe just half hour on just dance 3, I think I can handle that
Also, am definitely up for a longer term group!0 -
I'm glad everyone is excited about the idea for a longer term group. I, for one, am excited to see how much we can lose in this short month as a group. Starting this group has definitely been a motivation for me.0
-
My goals are to:
Get a workout going
Stay at or under my calories daily
Continue drinking my water and limit my diet pop intake
And never eat Bob Even Sausage Chili ever again. One I didn't know it was sausage chili and two it is terrible for you. We had dinner there tonight I only got the cup size and I had no idea it was as bad for you as it is. Over all it didn't hurt me terribly for the day but it certainly isn't gonna help.0 -
Also I am all for a longer challange. This seems to help keep me motivated knowing I have to post my weight weekly. Also if anyone could help me. I work on an assembly line and I walk from car to car for 8 to 9 hrs a day. How can I log this in as exercise since I am walking all this time going up and down stairs 8 times a day it has to count for something?0

I have a question for everyone (& I would start a new 'topic', but I don't know how, so if anyone can fill me in, please do) lol
How often do you weigh yourself, and is it working for you?
I do it every morning. I know most people seem to say you shouldn't do it that often, but for me, if I lose (even a 'tiny' amount) it motivates me.0
