    I didn't get here all weekend and I do wish I had. It was very stressful and it showed in my eating--though I did get a lot of walking done!
    New week, fresh start!'

    Goals for Feb. 20:
    1. Lots of water!
    2. Stay in my goals.
    3. Get my walks done--2 miles.

    I will try to catch up later.

    Hi Everyone,

    My name is Audra and I did MFP a while ago and lost 75 pounds, but after a rough pregnancy and a rough few years of having the baby, I am ready to get back into it.

    I do good all day and then lose my will power at night time.

    My goals for today are:
    Drink over 100 ounces
    Work out for 45 min
    No eating after dinner!!!!!

    Hi everyone. This seems like a good idea. I've been using MFP for over a year now. I've lost some of my motivation, so I'm going to try this and see if I can gain momentum again with my weight loss. I eat well during the day - I just really struggle when I go home and start snacking on junk food in the house.

    My goals today (2/20):
    1- Brave the cold weather and take Zoe (my pup) for a walk.
    2- Burn 300 calories doing Wii Zumba.
    3- Limit my after-dinner snacking.

    Hello. My name is Tracy. I have a perpetual list of things that need doing. Usually I put them off. I no longer call it a "To do" list. It's my procrastion list.

    Today I will clean the grime off the pantry door.

    Hi everyone..... I have missed reading your posts and chatting with you all..

    I am back from my trip from Ohio...what a challange eating out 3 meals a day. I think I did pretty good. I drank lots of water and walked around a lot. Getting weighed first thing tomorrow morning...but then have to go for a 4 hour glocuse tolerance test. Not sure how all this sugar is going to effect me or show on the scale.

    I had to do approximations for most of my meals. I even turned down a dinner invitation for Cheesecake Factory after looking up their menu on line and reading about the nutritional content of their food. (There was no way I could have gone there without getting the cheesecake and the calories for a slice of cheesecake started at 500 calorries.)

    I will post my goals tomorrow when I get back.
