Healthy Lifestyles (future check in)

[Deleted]

Ok gals, let me know of you want to join. I'm thinking Mondays for the actual check-in so this will give us the weekend to decide to join (tho others are welcome to start whenever). Plus maybe it'll keep us honest over the weekends knowing Monday is our report back date.

I plan on keeping it fairly simple. A weekly health goal to work toward, a qotw and then we can list our own personal goals and how we feel we achieve them on a weekly basis. How does that sound?

So, 1-2-3 GO! Who is in?

I'm in

Here's my dilemma.
I don't want to be in because I want to eat what I want, when I want and how much I want. I'm like a 5 year and I don't want to be held accountable.
On the other hand, I really don't want to have gestational diabetes again and clearly, I need to be held accountable because I'm pretty much incapable of making good food choices.

All that to say, I am reluctantly in. Bye bye mac and cheese.

I'm going to say I'm in bc I'm totally miserable with myself. But I also know that it's unrealistic to think I'm going to accomplish much until mh and I are back together. So... I'm half in?

richzep I was like that when I was pregnant DS1. I ate everything and had a great time doing it. I decided to be healthier with DS2 to feel better, gain less weight, and lose the weight faster. Well, I felt awful my entire pregnancy with DS2 and still managed to gain the same amount of weight. It was more fun eating everything for sure.

I'm going to gear this more toward healthy living most of the time...so if you don't want to go on a "diet" you don't have to. Small changes, big changes, whatever you want, at your own pace. The weekly goals won't be anything crazy like run marathons. I'm thinking more like, this week's challenge would be drink 8 glasses of water (at least) each day or add 3 - 20 min walks to your week. Just examples. Then you state your own overall goal(s) and your progress toward them each week.

Too much? Too little? Any suggestions?

[cinc1em]

I'm in! I just got a Fitbit and that small accountability has been super helpful

[phishgirl]

Sure. I'll try my best to participate.
