1) State your plan
No specific plan as of yet, I am heavily looking into Protein Power though. My plan is just basic low carbs, but I want to start actually counting my carbs.

2) State your weight loss goal
Lose 4 lbs or 2 inches on my waist or hips.

3) State your emotional goal, i.e. to be able to be angry without eating
Try not to exchange shopping for eating like I did in January.

4) State your water intake goal
64 oz's a day.

5) State your exercise goal
Some form of exercise everyday, 3 days of cardio/week, 3 days of weight training/week.

6) State your other goals, whatever they may be
Get a little bit more organized.

Default February Challenge

So it's a brand new month and we need brand new goals! Remember, you are accountable only to yourself! Here's how the plan works:

1) State your plan, i.e. Atkins
2) State your weight loss goal
3) State your emotional goal, i.e. to be able to be angry without eating
4) State your water intake goal
5) State your exercise goal
6) State your other goals, whatever they may be.

The end of this challenge will be February 28th and I will bring this thread back up and we can see how far we've come! I am ready to lose some inches and pounds, now who is with me this time around?!

Had to think about these long and hard before I joined in, so here goes..

1) State your plan
Atkins

2) State your weight loss goal
I am going to manage 5 pounds--and that means to be officially in onederland! I PROMISE to do this! After weighing in today, I can specifically say that my new goal is to be 198 at the end of February

3) State your emotional goal
To continue to find other things to do with my hands
To catch myself in the act when I start to "graze"

4) State your water intake goal
Since it is freezing cold up here, and the water might as well be ice, I am aiming to take in more tea. I am going to have a chat with the lady at the health food store to find out which ones my body will benefit from most. I have ginger tea here my inlaws sent so I will be having at least one cup of that a day

5) State your exercise goal
Since I know I am lousy at any sort of organized exercise, I am going to continue taking my pup for walks. Hopefully as the weather gets warmer, we will go for longer excursions!

6) State your other goals, whatever they may be.
To whittle down the massive debt we've incurred this month due to unforseen circumstances.

3. Emotional Goal
Continue to lean on hubby more........doing this last month, has certainly helped. Had only 2 really bad sugar days.

4. Water intake
Im good with this, except when Im sick. So, when Im not feeling up to snuff, I will pay more attention to my water intake.

5. Exercise goal.
Started weight training 2 weeks ago, will be able to move up in weights by the middle of Feb.

6. Goals
Have a full 2003 marketing plan for the store, by the end of Feb!!

1) State your plan - Atkins (lower fat because I'm trying out Xenical)

2) State your weight loss goal - 10 pounds in February

3) State your emotional goal - To find other things to do with my hands than stuffing food into my face. To really BELIEVE in myself and give myself supportive, POSITIVE self-talk.

4) State your water intake goal - 64 ounces a day

5) State your exercise goal - Go to the pool at least 4 times a week. Use my recumbant stationary bike 3 times a week starting with 5 minutes per session and working up to 20 min.
