I am sorry. That must be such a difficult thing to deal with. <hugs to you>

Just for Today 4/14 1. log 2. gym for strength training I think that is all for today.

Actually, since I started eating a portion of my exercise calories, I started feeling better because I could eat more, and the weight seems to come off easier. Probably because I'm happier.

Yes you do. They say 1 day out of 7 should be a complete rest day. :)

Just for Today 4/13 1. Do not be hard on myself for missing a strength day at the gym. There will be times that it does not work out. Do the best I can.... 2. log 3. get in at least 10K steps

@Bailey_432 - Happy Birthday. Enjoy your day! That is a great plan to enjoy but not overindulge. Last weekend I was amazingly productive. This weekend, I have been a sloth. Gotta try to change that. We had some crazy weather yesterday though...pouring rain, drops as big as balls, hail...fun stuff. Today should be…

Very late check in for me today. Have been running around all day, but still not 10K steps. GRRRR. I'm pretty excited that I have had two bouts of grumpiness in the past month or so and have been able to avoid turning to food for comfort. That is such a huge challenge. Just for Today 4/11 1. log everything 2. get more…

I agree! She shouldn't have to go with you, but good for you for going on your own! I kind of need him there because I'm starting weights, and I need a spotter :smirk:

These are excellent goals!

Thank you for this. Gave me a chuckle because it's so simple, yet uplifting

I had the same issue last night with my BF. I got dressed up and started to go on my own. He jumped up and joined me. :)

Just for Today 4/10 1. fight the grumpiness; do not turn to food for comfort 2. log everything That's all I have for today. #1 is going to be enough of a challenge :(

Just for Today 4/09 1. log everything 2. strength training tonight 3. another 5 pages

That's how it is for me :) They offer 24 hour access because it's so small and not staffed. It's 4 blocks from my house. So pretty awesome!

Just for Today 4/08 1. log everything 2. take the dogs for a walk this evening 3. read another 5 pages

This...on so many levels. :) They gave me all the tools, but would I actually use them? *Sigh*

Seriously? What gym isn't trying to lure you in that you have to call them back!!!????

Just for Today 4/07 1. log everything 2. strength training 3. read at least 5 pages of the "Starting Strength" book

@aerochic42 - love your goal. Keep it fun! @thisdamselflies - i really like your profile picture :)

@kwfitgal - I think that is a HUGE step! Deciding that the trigger foods aren't worth it and walking away. Congrats!!!

Man it feels fabulous starting my week with a house and yard that are all "put together" Just for Today 4/06 1. log everything 2. 30+ mins cardio 3. get menu planned for the week, and shopping list together 4. drop off stuff at Goodwill on way home

My little guy is sick today. (little, he'll be 15 next month) Anyway, our Easter plans are now staying home and not infecting others. Just for Today 4/05 1. log everything 2. now that house is clean, tackle yard. Mow, weed, plant wildflower seeds 3. gym for strength training 4. back up to 17K steps for the day

I know nothing about that. However, I have been sticking to just my allotted 1200 cals for the past 3 weeks, exercising and losing a pound a week. I read a thread about eating exercise calories and several people explained that MFP already sets you at a deficit so you can eat them. Most people eat about 75% of theirs. Sooo…

Just for today 4/04 1. Overcome the "weekend attitude" - This goal helped me through last week 2. use time alone to get the house clean, maybe even the floors :open_mouth: 3. Try to stick to 10k steps and not go over too much - sounds odd, but everything I've read said the body needs one day of rest, so today is the day 4.…

This whole thing is starting to click. I'm sure I will have off days, but even when I tell myself I can take a break this evening, I end up putting on the walking shoes, leashing up the dogs and taking a shorter walk :) I started eating some of those exercise calories this week, and actually had a 3 lb loss!! Sooo, eating…

I may or may not be out of town that weekend. If not, I might be interested. I'm a bit concerned because I have been suffering from Plantar Fascitis. Didn't walk much at all during the holidays/January trying to let it heal. I have been walking about 5 miles a day most of March, so hoping a hike wouldn't create a set back.

Pretty simple goals yesterday. Gotta try to come up with something a bit challenging. Just for Today 4/02 1. log everything 2. strength training 3. 5 mins meditation 4. Find 5 things to be appreciative of today

I get it...even numbers, rolling over the odometer. It's all part of the OCD family :)

Hate it when I do that!
