I am starting this thread so we can be each other's exercise/food accountablity buddies. I am also hoping it's a place where we CHEER each other on to VICTORY.
The idea is we post what we are eating (only if you want) and the exercise we are doing. Again you don't have to post what you eat, I just do it because I need to make myself accountable, as I have huge fat & sweet tooth. I LOVE ice cream.
So I will get the ball rolling. This is what I eat and the exercise I did today. I need to bring my calories down a few hundred, I am working on that though. I find the exercise makes me hunger all the time. If anyone knows how to help with that please let me know.

Awesome job! I know the Red Team is going to kick butt!
What's it like being a vegan? I have given up beef and pork, I just eat fish, dairy, eggs and poultry. I love fermented tofu (Tempeh, Natto & Miso) but no so much regular tofu.
I'm keeping track of calories/food intake on my iPhone- so I'm just reporting exercise:
Today I walked for 50 min. (I use the 'aerobic' timer* on my pedometer) a d total # of steps 16649
*Aerobic steps on pedometer is defined at >60 steps/minute for a minimum of 10 minutes
I teach at a school here in South Korea, so my breakfast, morning snack, lunch, and afternoon snack are usually always the same. At least this week they were.
B: whole wheat cereal with skim milk, banana, 190ml of orange juice
S#1: Dr. You Protein Bar
L: Turkey and swiss sandwich, yogurt, cucumber slices, pineapples slices
S#2: Cucumber slices, a small handful of almonds
D: Italian pasta: Whole wheat pasta, chicken breast, green peppers, onions, tomatoes, 1tsp olive oil, 3tsp parm. cheese.
Calorie total: 1835
Water Intake- 86 ounces
This was my plan yesterday and the same thing for today. I also always walk to and from work here on the island, and its about 15 minutes each way.
My exercise goals for next week are to try and hike the mountain nearby for 3days. It's about a 45 minute hike and overlooks the ocean once you reach the top. Not bad. I did it once this week already.

Good luck to everyone!!!
Thanks for joining in, you did a fantastic job today! I wish I lived near somewhere I could hike, it sounds fun.
I probably won't have time to post what I eat everyday but I like to read what everyone else eats to give me ideas. I walked 3 miles today with one of my dogs who wants to keep going. I should probably listen to her once in awhileI want to try jogging next week. It's been 3 years since I my last jog.

For exercise I walked around my neighborhood. I got in 30 minutes before dinner, burning 294 calories, then I didn another 20 minutes with my Dad the evening for another 113 calories, brining my total up to 407. Yesterday was my third day eating on plan, but my first for exercise.

I totally made up the tilapia recipie because my mom brought me a whole bunch of peaches from her tree and they aren't going to last long. I was pretty proud of myself that it worked very well.
