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
Water: 12 glasses

Good luck to all!

Tyla ~ Hurray for all that water!

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

A - 1. Accountability
D - 2. Drink
Y - 3. Yoga
S - 4. Stop
T - 5. Thin

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

2/29/12 - 154.6 - 90% out of 100 = 4.5/5 (AD(Y)ST)

3/2/12 - 151.6 - 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.

3/2

3/3
cals: 1250
