~.~Accountability~.~ for those of us really struggling

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)
