Default Just For Today Challenge, July 21

Have you been struggling to get on program, no matter which program you are trying to do? Why not sign in here just for today, and come back and show us how you did. Sign up with any goals you want to.

I have been struggling, some days eating as much as 60 points. I found last week when I started this challenge, that even though I still overate, I did much better, knowing I was going to be reporting it here.

Join me if you like. I will probably start this challenge daily for a while. If anyone beats me on here in the mornings, and it hasn't been started, feel free to start it. Believe me, I will follow this challenge no matter who starts it.

This has become a wonderful supportive group! (New thread started every day for a frest start!)

Thanks Peggy,

Yesterday was not a good day for me. I overate and didn't get enough calories. I'm bloated and have a headache today....

Today my goals are:
drink more than 2 litres of water
eat on plan
do not eat starchy food after 5 pm
eat 2/3 of my calories before 4 pm
no white flour
pray
journal
walk

I am rooting for everyone.

Ash

JazzyPeggy, Paradox & Tracy-Great job yesterday!

The scale is still moving in the right direction. BUT, I am meeting my son for lunch which is such a challenge for me. HOWEVER, I am going to try and be good. I know if I have mexican I have to skip the chips because I swore off crackers and chips until Thursday. My goal today is the usual, try to come in at 2000 calories and no alcohol or sweets.

Everyone have a great day. I wish you all success!

Thanks for the welcome JazzyPeggy.
My goals for today have been to:

1. Drink my water.

2. Stick to my meal plan for the day.

3. Walk at least 10,000 steps.

I've managed 1 out of three, I've been drinking my water. It's a start, not great and I could and will do better.
