Thanks for posting.

Mine is public as well...:-)

Thanks for posting...I too am trying to meet my nutritional goals in addition to meeting my calorie goals.

I like the idea of short term goals. I had been doing well since I started in January but in the last week I have reverted back to all my old habits. :grumble: This week my goal is to exercise at least three days during the week. I did hop on the treadmill Monday night for 25 minutes and my plan is go to spin class…

My friend is also doing the Warrior Dash in AZ next month. I did not sign up because I felt like I needed more training before I attempted it!! Maybe next year. I would love to hear about your experience...sounds like it will be fun.

I so agree...this is a much better way for me to lose weight. I struggled with WW but here I feel as though I can actually make permanent changes to my diet.

Excellent job on your willpower!!!:smile:

I am also 5'7 and my goal weight is 135.:smile:

I too aim for a minimum of 25 grams per day.

I too love beer and I the only light beer that I can stomach is Beck's premier ultra light. It actually tastes like beer. I will still have other beers that I love when I go out...I just plan for it and add it into my calories. Sometimes I go way over, but I do like beer (and wine).

That is fantastic!! It is so true...this change is about making changes to unhealthy lifestyles (at least it is for me) rather than just dieting.

I am starting week 7 and all of my runs have been on the treadmill. I also am thinking of taking my runs outside. I would love to hear about your experience if you do end up running outside.

What great ideas. I will have to try the tomato juice...sounds awesome.

It is nice when someone else is able to take notice. Great job! :smile:

Feel free to add me as well. :smile:

Same here...I also love the Cache bras from Lane Bryant. I have always had large breasts even when I was thin. I would be happy to lose a little. :smile:

You are welcome to check out my diary....I have really made an effort to cut out processed foods and typically eat organically as much as I can. I feel that it is better for my family. I still buy granola (have been afriad to make my own) and lunch meat. I am pretty good most days but sometimes I still fall for the…

Great idea with the rice and stir fry veggies....I avoid the frozen meals as much as possible as well (sodium is too high for me) but I sometimes am stumped on a quick healthy alternative. Thanks for the idea.:smile:

I always aim for 25 grams of fiber each day. I also eat a lot of high fiber foods (or at least I try too) and I think the amount set is too low (just my opinion).

I always have at least one Prodigy song and Lords of Acid. Classic running songs for me.

I LOVE Trader Joe's and every time I go I get: organic non-fat milk, organic low-fat vanilla yogurt, organic non-fat vanilla greek yogurt, bran flakes (cereal), pecan praline granola, mixed berries (for smoothies and my cereal), orange flavored cranberries (for my oatmeal), and spicy sweet walnuts for snacks. I also love…

I too am doing the C25K as well; I am stuck on week 6. :grumble: I will send you a request! :flowerforyou:

Mexican Food: a beef taco, green burrito enchilada style, chips and salsa with a Modelo Especial.

i am with you...weekends are my downfall; I am so good at structuring my meals during the week and when the weekend comes-yikes! I am continuing with my workouts and my goal the next two weekends is to structure my days like I would for the work week (snacks, lunch, breakfast, etc).

forgot to post yesterday (3/8/11)...did day 1 week 6 C25K-30 minutes of walking/running-2 miles. Monday did spin class instead of walking.

My diary is public-I have not had any negative feedback at all. I like being able to view other people's diaries to get food ideas and to learn how to incorporate healthy food into all areas of eating. I have had some REALLY bad days but that is life. I do what is best for me and want to support others on their journey to…

I am not sure what I am doing wrong with my ticker...still a bit challenged:grumble: but I have continued to walk-though I did not walk/run Friday :grumble: (my own fault for procrastinating in the morning) but I did walk/run (week 5 day 2 C25K) 40m minutes and I going to do week 5 day 3 right now! :smile:

I have figure out my ticker thing..I seem to be a bit challenged in getting it to work correctly. March 1- walked 25 minutes March 2-ran/walked (C25K program week 5 day 1) 30 minutes March 3-walked 30 minutes My goal for the week- walk a minimum of 10 minutes a day.

First thing Monday mornings.:smile:
