If you have read my posts you will see that I have been having a REALLY hard time doing anything regarding weight loss. The fact is I realize...okay I think i realized it before, but am ready to admit that I was sabatoging myself on purpose. I was not even TRYING to loose weight.

So here is my idea. I need some accountability. If enough people are interested we can start this thread by coming on here and posting one or two goals for your day. Something that you can accomplish within on day. Then at the end of the day come back and report if you have succeeded and cheer on the ones who have and be here for the ones who didn't.

MY GOALS FOR TODAY:

1. I will drink 8 bottles of Water today.

2. Clean out my closet (not weight related but a goal for the day nonetheless)

WoW! MaudeisPam that is AWESOME and encouraging. Keep up the great work! I'm still working on my water and have yet to do the stairs but i'll get it done after dinner (to redirect my thoughts away from desert) and onto excersize.

DeeDee and With the band, how are you guys doing today? Glad you jumped in on this with us. Lisa! You can do this you can do it. Think about how good you will feel once you get it done. Figure out a way to reward yourself once it is done, hey if you'd pay 500.00 why not take 20 and go get your nails done, or 100 and go to a spa tomorrow. The papers won't disappear, tomorrow won't be a better day to do them. You committed yourself for a reason and from reading your posts I can tell you are the kind of person who follows through. DO NOT GIVE UP. Sounds like your doing great with everything else. Idea, why not set your timer for 20 minutes go in there and work until the timer goes off and then stop. That way you've done your paperwork and a chunk of it will be gone.

Ug, it's not just paperwork. It's note and repairs and packages needing to be shipped to Switzerland & NJ, reservations needing to be made, 5 vehicle registrations, taxes, business and God knows what. Here, it's all yours!

Doggies have been walked, 100 sit ups, weights, etc. I'd gladly exercise all over again instead of dealing with this...

OH! Wow you really did mean buckets! YUCK! Why not take half out and work on that half in the living room (if feasible) so it doesn't seem so overwhelming. I can't wait to see the after pics also remember it's not all or nothing.

Yay I did it I drank 72oz of water and I let my dog Tramp take me for a walk! He needs a bath so that will be my tommorrow's goal and to keep up with the water. Oh yeah and then there is cleaning out my truck, YIKES!!

I will drink 5 - 20 oz bottles of Water

I will make sensible food choices

Thats awesome DeeDee! and you finished really early in the day too. Congratulations!

Let's see, the dog is washed, laundry is done, basement is cleaned, water is done....now I have to pee....LOL!

Haha very nice. Well I have completed 2 of my 3 so far. I drank all of my Water, did the stairs plus twenty five minutes in the fitness room (in my apartment complex) and I have brushed my teeth so I will not eat for the rest of the night. It isn't an option. *trying to hold on strong* Yay!

Lisa, how you doing?

Today I wil

1) walk 60 minutes with weighted shoes

2) not eat after 7

3) spend my noon getting closet doors

Goodmorning everyone, here we go again. Keep up the great work. Lisa don't leave us it's a brand-new day. Clean slate time even if you didn't hit yesterday's goal, and if you did CONGRATS!

Today I will:

Drink all of my Water (6 bottles 16.9oz ea) 4 of them will be before I leave work

I will not eat after 7

Eat healthy (protien shake for Breakfast, tuna for lunch, and a subway sandwinch with fat free pringles for dinner)

Here is for Monday:

1. Make & Eat healthy meal choices.

2. Pick up needed cleaning supplies & household items @Family Dollar.

3. Change the battery in the smoke detector that keeps beeping.....ERRR!

4. Wash the bed linens.

That picture makes the mess seem much smaller. I have another bucket that size under my desk. I didn't finish it, but I worked on it for an hour, though it doesn't look any different. I did bring about 10 items to work that I'll take care of now. It's a start. Today I will empty my in-tray at work and actually work for how well they pay me

Okay I started with fruit this morning and even packed my lunch more fruit and vegetables. I also have my balsamic vinegar and olive oil for my salad. I have not drank any water today(uh oh). I usually drink it at work . I go in at 2 and get off at 1045. I get about 64oz at work on a good day. Well I am off to work.

I ate a healthy breakfast and lunch. Last of the bed linens are in the dryer, and I already picked up the cleaning supplies. Yeah.
