I'm going to join this thread as well if that's okay.
Weight Goals Today:
~ stick to my food plan
~ get my walking in
~ get my weight training in
~ to change activity instead of emotionally eating journal, read, have a bath, knit whatever
~ to journal my food, mood, & get support here DAILY to 'stay' & get the support i need.
Personal Goals:
~ not to beat myself up for letting some weight creep back on. give myself credit for catching before it got to out of control.
I'm feeling in a vunderable place & am disspaointed with myself.

Hi, Ladies! Great posts, and welcome to all you new ladies. I only have time to note my Tuesday progress, so here goes . . . it was a fair day (cold slightly better).
Diet/Fitness goals
1) 1600 cal/day, under 30% fat (M/yes! 1362, 27%)(T/yes 1300, 20%)
2) 400-600 calorie deficit through exercise alone by doing: (M/no)(T/220)
a) cardio 5X/week
b) weights, 2X/week-full body
4) 8 glass plus of water (yes)(T/yes)
Personal Project Goals:
1) Spend more time in my studio--4 days/wk minimum (just BE in my space--as my husband reminds me "you won't paint if you're not there." (M/no--worked all day)(T/no)
2) Gather tax stuff - almost done (partly)(no)
Start Weight 1/1: 135
Weight 2/9: 130 (yay again!)
4/1/11 Goal: still 125!!!
Finally off to my studio this morning to finish a painting to enter a statewide exhibition. Will walk to the studio about 2 miles. Hope to make it to the gym for weights. I'm taking it really easy tho because of this horrible cough. I sound terrible and only feel slightly bad.
Keep up all the good work - "see" you tomorrow!

Stacey, welcome back. 
Cassie, I see "5. Get in three of my water bottles daily", I know you are small but can you fit? I'd suggest drinking them instead of trying to get in them.
Great job on # 3
Twinner, Chocolate covered oreos??? YUMMY! Have you ever had (I don't know what it's called) 2 Ritz crackers with peanut butter between them, then dipped in chocolate. Kinda reminds me of Girl Scout Tagalongs, only better!
Vabs, congrats on the sleep! Good job on the lifting but you better get busy on your mail before you drown in it.
Almeeker, get busy on #1! What race are you planning to register for?
Quinn, your #'s are looking great, keep it up.
Rose, ring, ring ring... the Y is calling yo!
Mern, nice job! 148g of protein is tough on 1593 cals. You you taking supplements?
taubelle, 10 goals??
Caroline, congrats on almost being married 9 years, especially at a young age. I never could make it much past 1 year. I always that of it as a quick way to drop 125 pounds or so. Being a photgrapher can be a busy job. I have a good friend that's a photographer, I was going to post his webiste for you to see b/c i'm trying to keep the spamming down and didn't want to contribute to it.

You're a laugh riot, Mike, I tell you.... Get three bottles' worth of water in me...how is that?
Stacey, I'm glad to see you popped back in. Did you make the move yet, or are you planning to? Hope all is going okay with you and your son.
