I have noticed arount the 3FC site that there are various threads to say what you ate in a day. I have found that doing this holds me accountable, because I need to see what I'm doing with my food intake. Would anyone else be interested in a food accountability thread on the 20-somethings board? If so, please reply to this and if there is some interest, I'll go ahead and start the thread. We could also do this with exercise accountability? I'd like for it to be a daily thing for me, but anyone could post or not as they choose. Anyways, let me know!
I'm up for anything. We do have the November challenge up in the sticky's for exercise accountability if you want to join that! You just go back and edit it every day and keep track. But a food one would be good. I'd post!
I think i might give this a try but do it a little differently. I don't want to start obsessing on what i eat or food, but for my health i need to somehow start eating more solid foods and around the same time every day. I need to set up some sort of schedule for myself, so i would post in here also.
That's enough interest for me! Please everyone feel free to set up your own schedule catered to fit what you need to do! I'm also going to include my exercise info along with my food listing.
I guess I'll just go ahead and start the thread right here!

I'd love to join this thread! My goal is to get a combination of 5 fruits and veggies each day. I'm also going to keep track of when I ate and if I ate because I was really hungry or not. I'm not real big on keeping track of calories. I'm trying to refocus my eating by controlling my portions. (Thanksgiving is giving me the willies. It's my favorite holiday b/c of the food!) Anyway...
