I am going to finish filling out my tracker.. I skip doing dinner because I do not know what I actually eat is what I planned.

This thread has been inactive for almost a year.. Maybe if I posted on it every day I would at least get into the team page. Step one: Show up

You are welcome to join us! So far I have done 4 days in a row! The pattern I am seeing is that I don't do too badly...except for the bread, which I have a VERY hard time leaving alone!
You could chose another consequence if a book doesn't interest you. A movie, a good cup of coffee, whatever! We could actually get a whole team thing going here! LOL

When I was filling out my food tracker with everything I ate.... I lost weight. I have been negligent. sooo I am going to join you today. I ate 1 ounce of tortilla chips for breakfast. I am also resolved not to eat at work...

I'm feeling much better today & yesterday -- a day or two more & I should be completely over it! Yay!
I made a dare with a friend -- whichever one of us doesn't fill out our Nutrition Tracker has to buy the other one a book. We are both book addicts, so that seemed like a good consequence. But of course it's meant to spur us on to log our food, so we can be accountable. I know it's worked for me -- I've completed a food log for 2 days now, and as usual am stunned to see how much more calories, carbs, fat etc I've eaten than I thought I had. Which will lead to making better choices. At least that's the theory!

Hope you are feeling better soon. Just take it easy, everyone is saying it lingers. I have found that it is kicking in my allergies. I went back on my allergy meds. It takes a while for them to kick in. I take the kind I only have to take once a day. I walked a mile with a friend and that may be all I can cope with right now.

Me too -- I haven't been feeling on top of things since the holidays. All that fog & rain! I was so excited to see the sun when I woke up this morning, and now the fog is back & I'm worried that it won't lift all day.
Of course, having this dratted cold hasn't helped for exercise or for my eating! Luckily it's almost all gone.

Last week was sooo bad. I worked out but ate crazy. Any-who this week is going better. I am going back to basics.
I have worked out twice this week. Yesterday and today. :)
and I have resisted temptation to snack outside of my scheduled meals. I am working on healthier habits.
Hopfulhippo - I have family that walk the Bay to Breakers every year. They love it. I will have to check in with them and maybe we can all walk together.
ANYONE know of any run/walk going on in this area?

Aspen, I am always looking for cheap! Was watching the Bally's commercial ..dang it..they don't have one here.
Joe (can I call you that?) You plant bulbs now? I didn't know. In Washington you couldn't plant them until like, April. So, good to know.
Going to do a run today...Maybe to Target (live in Lincoln) I am signing up for the Bay to Breakers in May. My very 1st run/walk EVER!!
Thanks for opening up this little chat room. It feels nice talking to people who are somewhat closer to me geographically! :o)

Yesterday was my walking day. I am going to work and then plant the bulbs that are sitting in the garage. If they do not get planted the money will be waisted and I will miss all that yellow glory. digging a flower bed is n aerobic activity.

Have you tried the one in Citrus Heights? They don't seem to have as many front end people as some of the other locations, & nobody hovers. At least that's been my experience!
My (son to be ex! yay!) DIL joined a gym that's relatively cheap. I don't remember the name, but she's happy with it. I can get the name for you if you're interested.

The only reason I can't do CalFit is because everytime I go in there to sign up they circle like vultures then call for weeks on end like used car salesmen. Just give me a price and let me sign already! LOL
going to check out 24 hour Fitness tonight. Going to my jog/walk in the frigid cold...unless I talk myself out of it..and Wii tonight.

I belong to CalFit. I joined because they have water aerobics -- water aerobics, tai chi, & walking are the only exercises I can do because of a bad back. Yet. I'm hoping to "graduate" to bicycles soon!
I try to do water aerobics 3 or 4 times a week, tai chi 3 times a week, and I need to walk more often!

So today I am going to Sunrise Mall. Walking the mall while getting better is the way to go. It is so cold outside I just do not want to do it. I will go to Rusch Park today between 2 and 2:15 to see if anyone wants to walk. I will be on the stairs in front of the building by the office.

I like/need this accountability! This has been a great weekend to (finally) be home and get caught up on so many things, including SP (another "finally!")
Committing to my gym for 5 workouts this week, eating clean and healthy, preparing lunches the evening ahead, making time to log in all food and exercise, drinking 8-12 glasses of water daily.

Let's post on this forum. Let's be accountable. When ever and what ever you wish to share. I am energized to move on down from 175 this year. I am shopping for a gym. I am making more vegetarian meals or with meat as only one of the many protien options. The sun just came out. I think I will go for a walk around Rusch Park .... As often as I am able. When ever I need to....

Count me in. I haven't been active on Spark lately, but I'm trying to get my life back in order - eating better, exercising, riding the horses or hiking, etc. I'll try to check in daily.
Since I'm getting over a cold, right now, the exercise will be gentle for a couple more days. I'm going to take this opportunity to do the 21 day yoga challenge by Yoga Journal. The videos are on their website: yogajournal.com/21daychallenge
Let's make it a happy & healthy 2011!

I like your ideas Maria and Hopefulhippo... I have been hit-or-miss with all of my SP since the fall due to so many (all good) reasons, but it's time for me to get back to it. Post to let me know where we should check in. I'll try for daily, but it might be only a few times a week, depending on my schedule. That would still be an improvement for me though... baby steps!
Happy New Year Roseville team!

Right here is as good as place as any. I'm tring to lose 10 lbs this month and so far have failed (and yes, I will use that word) at starting...
going to do my Biggest Loser Wii, Jillian Michaels Wii and maybe even start up my C25...NO...I WILL start my C25. I can't finish if I don't start...right? right.
Hey, did you guys hear what they are planning for the mall? My daughters say they want to more or less renovate the whole darn thing in like, themed sections. Anyone have the scoop on that?
I wonder if running to Starbucks would be a good motivator...
Maybe I'll try that today...how about that...chatted your ear off and I haven't even had a cup of joe yet.

How about checking in every day or so? Talk about potential walks or meet ups? Talk about good days and bad? Start out with a few and maybe drag more in. Let's concentrate on one place to post so we are able to keep the information current.
