So I've decided that I definitely need to lose weight, and I need y'alls help. If I give myself goals and tell only me, then I'll never follow through with them. But if I tell someone, and y'all ask me how I'm doing and stuff, then I'll do them because I don't want to fail to others. So here are my goals and you have to help me with it.
1. Work out 3x/week
2. No eating after 9:30 p.m. (time will move up over time, need to start small)
3. Eat moderate portions, "better"foods
4. Run 3x/week
5. Drink water, and plenty of it...at least 64oz./day
And probably the hardest one of all....
6. NO MORE COKES (unless it's a special occasion, or I really, really need one)
My end goal is to lose about 30 lbs. and fit comfortably into my size 10 jeans. Short term goal is do like Melissa said and lose 5 lbs. by Feb. 24. That can't be that hard right? It's like 1/2 lb. a day. I think it's doable, so I'm going to try. Wish me luck everyone.

FYI: One pound= 3500calories. So, to lose a pound you have to burn 3500 more calories than you consume. I am so proud of you and this new goal!!! Keep a diary... to chart your progress. I also read somewhere you should drink half your body weight in ounces of water a day. Ex. if you weigh 100 pounds drink 50 ounces. I know that's alot to do when you just start but it could be another goal. Then you should have an additional 8 ounces for every 1/2 hour you work out...but if you work out for more than one hour you should alternate water with something like poweraid. Ok that's enough...I'll leave you alone.
Ok so I broke my cell phone in half....going get a new one at lunch. I get out at 11 today. Please email me your # b/c i think I lost all of mine....mlalan1@lsu.edu
