  • Tyla: I love all sorts. My netflix queue is a study in split personalities or is that schizophrenia?

    Yesterday: I ate: 1674
    I did Turbo Fire EZ 55 and 537 Kettlebell swings with a 20lb bell.

    Sunday: I did Fire 45 from the Turbo Fire series, Push 3 from Chalene Extreme, Core 20 from Turbo Fire, the beginner running program from WH that I'm working on to get back to running.
    And I ate: 1459 Cal
  • moviegirl, I love movies, too. But my favs are comedies and romantic comedies. Loved Hangover 1.

    Yesterday: 1550 cals.
    exercise: 45 min.
  • May I join 2 days late? I love this idea!
  • I'm in for this challenge, too! I've been needing to up my motivation and accountability.
  • So I've been thinking about my own personal "100%" as in, what constitutes 100% for me. As a featherweight (and recovering compulsive eater) I feel like my vision gets blurry when I focus only on the numbers of what I eat and how much I exercise.
    I focus on actions that I can complete, rather than numbers I have to stay under or over. The most successful weight-loss streak I've ever had was in the spring/summer of 2006 and this is the plan that I followed. I'd love to take the lead-up into Easter as an opportunity to go full force and check-in at 100% every day.

    My personal 100%: (each element worth 20%, ranked in order of difficulty)

    1. Accountability - Post. Whether I feel like it or not.

    2. Drink - 100 oz (3 liters) per day

    3. Yoga - The one exercise that never fails. No injury or sickness can keep me from sitting on the mat, and even if that's all I do, at least I'm on the mat and not shoving food in my face.

    4. Stop - No eating after 8PM. There are very few exceptions, but as a habit and general rule, no good food takes place after 8.

    5. Thin - Keep calories to a healthy minimum.
  • Sorry I haven't been here for a while. My computer crashed. But I'm ready to get back in control. Let's do this!
  • I'd love to join this thread if that is okay. I'm new to this site and just figuring things out, but i love the idea, and I need the accountability.

    For my 100% I need to:
    1. log my food/calories
    2. exercise daily - it has been my hardest to do b/c I want to go all out and then flake
    3. 120oz H20
    4. 2 alcoholic bev. weekly
    5. no eating after 7pm
    6. do measurements/photos weekly - I hate to see them, but it helps me
  • My goals are to post my calories
    Post minutes of exercise.
    Drink 10-12 glasses of water

    HAPPY MARCH 1ST, EVERYONE!

    EVERYONE IS WELCOME. LET'S TO DO THIS TOGETHER!
  • Yay, Tyla! Glad you're back.

    2/29/12 - 154.6 - 90% out of 100
    1. Accountability - 20
    2. Drink - 20
    3. Yoga - 10
    4. Stop - 20
    5. Thin - 20
    (could have done more yoga, but made nighttime sleep a priority instead. Both beneficial activities.)

    3/1/12 - 152.8
  • I'm glad I'm back, too. Did well today.

    Cals 1393
    Exercise: 40 min

    Good luck to all!

    3/1/12 - 152.8 - 100% = 5/5 (ADYST)
    3/2/12 - 151.6

  • I'm planning on taking a yoga class this month. I register next week. Hope I like it. I usually workout on a treadmill, elliptical and other cardio.

    Doing great today so far.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!
  • Yay, Tyla!!! Yoga is the one exercise that never fails me. Hope you love it, too.

    2/29/12 - 154.6 - 90% out of 100 = 4.5/5 (AD(Y)ST)
    3/1/12 - 152.8 - 100% = 5/5 (ADYST)
    3/2/12 - 151.6 - 100% = 5/5 (ADYST)
    3/3/12 - 151.2 - A bit frustrated this morning. I was expecting a lower number, but must remember that any movement downward is a good thing. Was kind of low on the cals (which is why I was expecting lower...) so might try bringing them up a bit today.


    A - 1. Accountability
    D - 2. Drink
    Y - 3. Yoga
    S - 4. Stop

  • 2/29/12 - 154.6 - 90% out of 100 = 4.5/5 (AD(Y)ST)
    3/1/12 - 152.8 - 100% = 5/5 (ADYST)

    3/3/12 - 151.2 - 90% = 4.5/5 (ADYS(T))
    3/4/12 - 154.4*

    * to say the least... I was experimenting and thought that I might lose more if I upped cals... Ummm, not so much. Hoping that most of the gain is from bloat, though. Lesson learned. Staying optimistic.
