A Full Week On Plan
 

I started my weight loss journey in mid-June. I feel like I've done well overall - my food choices are MUCH healthier than they used to be, and I'm exercising 5-6 times a week. I've lost 15-17 lbs., depending on how kind or cruel my scale is being. However, I've yet to go a whole week without slipping up in some way.

So I'm setting a goal for myself: This week, I will be 100% on-plan. For me, that means I will stay within my calorie limit (1400-1600) and exercise every single day (even if it's just going for a walk on days 6 and 7).

I'm feeling confident that I can do it! I just wanted to post my intention here so I can be accountable to you guys.

Good luck to all of you as you work toward your own goals this week!

:carrot::carrot::carrot:

lets do it together! one week on program and exercising everyday! then at the end of the week we can compare notes!

I'd like to join in!

My goals are the same as yours. Exercise each day, and stay in my calorie range.

(I used to visit the site, but kept going back and forth. Now i'm finally dedicated, and I'm trying to stick to a better workout schedule)

I'll be back tomorrow with an update!

Great idea! Let's just post our daily progress in this thread! I'll update tomorrow as well.

Yay for "accountabilibuddies!" :)

I'm totally doing this.

My calories are under 1500 and I plan on exercising 5 days minimum next week.

LET'S DO THIS! :)

SWEET! i WILL SEE YOU LADIES TOMORROW!

Great, I would love to join, too!! Let's do this!! :carrot:

Sunday, August 10:

I had belly dance class today and I went for a 60-minute walk tonight, so I'm good on exercise. I actually haven't eaten enough today (which almost never happens), so I'll be having a snack before I go to bed to bring my calorie count up to at least 1300 - otherwise I'll be ravenous all day tomorrow.

One on-plan day down, six to go! Hope you all are doing well!

Monday 11-8:
ate enough (noodles, pork, veggies for lunch, beef, fish and 2 bowls of fruits for dinner. I woke up at 1PM so i didn't have breakfast but i guess it's ok for 2day :))
exercise 25 mins hula hoop
drank 2 liters of water already. But it's only 9.45PM so maybe i'll drink more :)
6 more days to go.

*edit*
at 11.00PM I decided to do 100 WPU (wall push up). yay .. finally able to do 100, even tho it's just wall push up lol.

I woke up and an awesome breakfast and now I am heading off of for school. I don't know if I will get a workout in today or not because of all the running around I will be doing - but I am gonna sure as heck try.

I also started using the daily plate again today since I haven't been doing it all since I got home from England!

6 days to go!

I'm totally up for being part of the "accountabilibuddies" :D

Have to use today as Day 1 but plan is as follows:
- 1200-1500 calories a day
- Exercise a bare minimum of 30 min each day (without making excuses about not getting up early enough or getting home too late)
- Be accountable.

Woo hoo! I'm in for the challenge ladies! :D

(1/2 a day in and I'm doing good.) ;)

Way to go, everyone! I'm glad so many of us are doing this!

Taylor - didn't know you were in England! Did you have a good time? I spent 10 days in London in April and absolutely LOVED it.

Annita - Way to go on those wall push-ups!!! I had to drop out of the challenge due to a shoulder injury. I'd gotten up to 91 and was sooo mad.

Will be back with a progress report this evening!

I had a wonderful time and met my fiances parents for the first time - they were wonderful.

However, several, several pints of beer later and 6 course meals prepared by his mom I need to get back on track.

I am just sitting down to my neatly prepared lunch and I am gonna make my goals this week!!

I'll be glad to join :D I started this two weeks ago actually and I'm still going strong! so if I can help motivate/participate here it'd be wonderful :)

Awesome! Keep us in line, Lauren!
