Hi, everyone!

I hope you don't mind, with me being new here and all, me starting an accountability thread we can all post our daily goals in. I'm in need of a thread that'll help me stay accountable every day at this point! I've had a difficult time staying focused on my weight loss over the last month and have lost very little weight. It's time for me to get a move-on!

Anyone care to join me???

Good luck, guys!

Alyssa

Okay, I'll start with my goals for Saturday, October 2nd.

Today I will...

~ Drink water all day (after already having had my glass of ice tea this morning) - Check!

~ Put in 20 minutes on the treadmill and 10 minutes with weights - Check!

~ Eat exclusively vegetarian (beans, veggies, and fruit) - Check!

~ Stay active, not sitting around - Check!

~ Hopefully lose one pound by tomorrow (143 lbs) - Check! (Actually weighed 142 this morning! Yaay! )


We can do this, you guys!! Woohooo!!

Accountability thread for Sunday, October 3rd.

Come join me if you need accountability and encouragement for today, guys!


My goals for today (A lot like yesterday's - I suspect it will often be this way)...

~ Drink water all day - Check!

~ Eat primarily vegetarian (fruits, veggies, and beans) - Check!

~ 20 minutes on the treadmill (pick up the pace!), and 10 minutes of weights - Check!

~ Be active all day, no sitting around - Check!

~ Lights out no later than 12:30 a.m. - Check!

~ *Maybe* get down to 141 tomorrow. I won't hold my breath, though, as 4 pounds is a lot to lose in 48 hours. I'll be happy with a couple tenths of a pound or no gain. - Check!


Wish me luck, team! I'm off to the races! I hope you'll join me.

Hello, and welcome to Monday, October 4th!

I hope yesterday was a great and productive day for you all, and I do hope some of you will join me in keeping track of daily goals here.

Yesterday went well for me, but I found myself hungry before bed! I think my dinner salad was too light and needed more calories. I'll have to work on that today.

On the upside, I did lose another pound! I've lost four pounds in just a couple/few days, which is unusual for me at this stage in the game. I'm guessing it's because I took some time off dieting, basically, in the month of September, only losing two pounds in a month. Therefor, my weight loss right now is primarily water, I'm sure.

Regardless, I'll take the loss over a gain!

So, today's goals....

~ Drink water all day - Check!

~ Eat primarily vegetarian - Check!

~ Be aware of calories (not too much, or too little) - Check!

~ 20 minutes on the treadmill and 15 minutes of weights - Check!

~ Stay active all day - Check!

~ Don't 'sample' dinner while cooking (it's going to be a fattening meal for the family ... I could blow my day just 'tasting' for correct seasoning! ) Check!-

~ Lights out by 12:30 - Check!


Have a marvelous and productive day, new friends!!

I only have a few simple goals for today, Saturday, October 9th, which is almost over (it's after 6 p.m.).

I've eaten light and well all day today, but my activity has been low and will remain low for the rest of the day.

For the remainder of the day I will...

1~ Continue to eat light and healthy - Check!

2~ Drink a bunch of water (it's been an ice tea day for me!) - Check!

3~ Lights out by 1 a.m. (stayed up til all hours last night!) - NOoooo! Fail! I need to get my act together and get my bunz to bed on time!!



Have a wonderful evening, ladies!!

Okie-dokie! Accountability for Sunday, October 10th...



1~ Watch those calories! I'd love to lose a pound this week! - Check!

2~ Drink only water today. - Check!

3~ Stay active. - Check!

4~ Lights out by 12:30, no matter what! - Check!


I feel distracted today, so I'm really going to have to force myself to focus on food/calorie intake.

Accountability for Monday, October 11th.


More of the same for me!

1~ Eat primarily vegetarian today -

2~ Drink tons of water! -

3~ Stay active! -

4~ Lights out by 12:30 -


Well, I got to bed on time last night, after two nights of staying up too late. I'm still a little run down, so I think it's going to take another night to get caught up on my lost sleep.

I should exercise... Should. teehee! I feel too tired, to be honest. But today is going to be a big day for physical activity; lots to do! Hopefully, I'll get plenty of sleep tonight and be well rested tomorrow, then I'll get in a good workout tomorrow! ... ...


Have a great day, folks!!
