Hello MFP!
I am new here; been committed to tracking for 23 days & going strong!

2. Get ALL my paperwork done at work today (Been putting this off for two weeks & right now-procrastination! ughh)
3. 30 min of cardio, 20 min abs! (Half done already!)
If I accomplish these three goals today, I am allowing myself a (small) (small-ish?)

NEW - Julie from Ohio. I have been using MFP off and on for a couple of years now. I was running five days a week a couple of years ago and gained back the 20 pounds I lost when I dislocated my SI joint in my left hip. Sadly, the chiropractor didn't catch it but was happy to treat me for over six months. I finally got tired of the pain and went to my GP and he sent me to an amazing physical therapist that was able to diagnose me by watching me walk! It has been a long road back but I am finally completely healed up and started running a couple of weeks ago! Since it is so late in the day, I will post my goals for tomorrow:
1) Stay in my calorie goal
2) Run 2 miles
3) Yoga for 30 - 60 minutes

The last few days have been disasterous to my meal plan. Work has been crazy busy, Wednesday night I worked until 9:15 pm. Thursday night I cleaned the house from top to bottom. It almost sparkles. And it is probably the reason why one of my doggies got sick on the carpet upstairs and that it is raining outside so that the doggies can drag mud onto the freshly shampood carpets.
I just went back and attempted to write down what I ate. I know I missed some of the food I ate. My blood sugar went crazy.
Today is a new day.....and a new beginning.
My goals for today
To journal my food honestly
To drink water and green tea
To food shop and pick up healthy foods
To buy myself some flowers
To try some relaxation exercises tonight0 -
I need some motivation and maybe this will be just what I need!

I REALLY need this group! I have had a couple of really rough weeks after 3 months of solid losses in pounds and gains in strength. Like imworthit, I struggle with binge eating. My goals for today are:

-Stay away from the scale0 -
Goals for March 2:
1. Plenty of fluids!--Need more.
2. Healthy choices and portion control.--Yes on portions but the choices weren't the best.
3. 1 mile walking workout.--Walked for 2 miles.
I went out for a while yesterday and did a lot of walking--I felt okay most of the day but then the headache starts in the afternoon and is just miserable. My son had this also and it lasted a couple of weeks. The doctor says its going around and is a cold-type virus.
Oh my! That is my problem, too!When Im sick I usually give in to everthing to try to make myself feel better, doesnt work but I keep trying, today Im going to try my very best not to fall into old habits.

Today was a total bust the only thing I did was drink water. But have to tell you all it was a rough day of sick kid with the coughs and barfs so i went to the back burner I didnt have time to even think about what I was or wasnt doing just a fact. I hope tomorrow is better. I will post what my goals are when I get up. good night all:yawn:0

Today was not such a great day for me in terms of calories..in fact, it was terrible. I can walk away with a valuable lesson learned though: food does not need to be the enemy, and weight loss is not defined by our mistakes, but rather by our overall progress. One day will not kill us, and one wrong move does not mean the end of the world. Here is to a fresh start.
Goals for 3/4:
1. Stay under 1700 calories
2. Stay positive for the entire day
3. 30 minutes of cardio.0 -

Prayers to all affected by the deadly storms. Have a safe and wonderful day!0 -

Hello all! I am not new to MFP, I have been a member for over a year now...however, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl on November 4, 2011, and am trying to get back into shape!! I am new to this group and am looking for some great support and motivation as I am severely lacking the latter! Here are my goals for today:
1) Start fresh with 30 Day Shred...Day 1
2) 90 oz of water (They say to drink half your body weight in ounces of water)
3) No Cheeze-Its or Girl Scout cookies (These seem to be my weaknesses and are packed full of calories!)0
