Anyone up for doing this together?!

Heather said: "A good reason to redefine "reward" Rewarding with food is a hard habit to break. Think of other things you could do to reward yourself that would be better, like a manicure, pedicure, a new outfit, a new hairstyle.. if it doesn't involve food, it won't defeat the good exercise that you did!"

UniqueMystique said: "Serendipity.....it's great that you already have a plan! We're all pretty much trying to lose weight, eat healthier, and get more active....so, we're all doing this with you! ;) But...it doesn't hurt to have a buddy on the side either. Good luck!"

UniqueMystique said: "[QUOTE=Qian]Do you know why you end up slipping up? Boredom? Stressed? Sometimes keeping your mind on something else will help you make it through the harder times. :)[/QUOTE] And don't forget....keeping your hands busy with something else. Makes it hard to eat if they can't pick up food. :D"

UniqueMystique said: "50 calories at a time, eh? I'd never heard that. It is something to think about though."

Holly said: "Hi again! I just asked in the into section if you have goals and a strategy...and you do! Awesome. Good luck to you!! I think you can consider everyone on this forum a workout buddy! We're brutally honest, that's for sure. ;) I think we try to make a healthy lifestyle as fun as possible. :)"

Holly said: "Evening time is tough. I can understand that!!! You'll do fine tonight ;) . Make a list for yourself and stay busy until bed time. That has been working for me lately."

Holly said: "You said you were about 20 right? What college do you go to? If you don't mind saying, that is. ;)"

lotusleaf said: "im all for rewarding myself when ive done well!!! i set myself a goal to achieve and plan the reward, helps me to keep the goal in mind, good luck with your lifestyle change, we are all in the same boat so keep us posted!!"

Qian said: "Great Goals. Good luck at accomplishing them. We are all trying to drop the lbs, so you check on us and help us stay motivated, and we'll do the same for you."

Qian said: "Do you know why you end up slipping up? Boredom? Stressed? Sometimes keeping your mind on something else will help you make it through the harder times. :)"

Qian said: "lol. Very true. Totally forgot about that ;)"

serendipity20 said: "Hey! I'm new here ... but I'm very decided that i'm going to LOSE this weight :) I'm 209 lbs., 5"10 tall, 20 years old ... I find that I am much more motivated when I have someone that I'm doing it with. Just someone to talk to about what I did that day, good or bad, goals, all that fun stuff :) So if anyone is up for a little challenge or just has similar goals as me, let me know! My overall goals: 1. lose 50 lbs. 2. get in shape - work out more 3. become more motivated & dedicated 4. start walking everyday Weekly: 1. walk at least 20 minutes daily 2. work out @ the gym 4 days a week 3. PORTION CONTROL! 4. eat lots of veggies/fruits - go for the healthy food rather than junk! =)"

serendipity20 said: "Well I can already tell i'm gonna love this! You are all seem really great and supportive! We can do it :) The hardest part for me is the evening ... I do pretty good all day long, but then night comes and it seems like I just screw it all up! Thats what happened last night , but tonight I've just got to realize I CAN DO IT and no one else is gonna do it for me right? :o so ... one day at a time!"

serendipity20 said: "Holly & everyone else ... yeah that is true - i need to keep busy! Becuase during the day, I am so busy with shcool and whatnot, but my plan for tonight is to go to the gym and work out, come home & shower & then head to the library to do some studying :rolleyes: then by time I get home, I just plan on reading and heading to bed early ... been along week!

Jen said: "Here's something I've noticed...in the past, I've often sabbotaged my weight loss by eating more. I think, 'ok, I worked out, so I can have a couple of hundre calories of (insert craved food here!!) :eek: . My doctor reminded me that people gain weight 50 calories at a time, and that exercise itself should be the reward, not more food. Um, yeah...... ;)"
