404.1 | To stay on program for the weekend | COOKIE::WILCOX | Database Systems/West | Fri Feb 17 1989 16:09 | 8 |
| Amy, what a wonderful idea!
My mini-goal for this week is to stay on program for the weekend. That's
been tough lately. I'll report back on next Friday as I'm travelling
on Monday.

| What a good idea this is, Amy! Just what I need to motivate me
at the beginning of the week.
I am eating out twice this week, so my mini-goal is to make the best
choices I can, and control how much I eat and drink (or rather, the
calories I consume!)

404.3 | My mini-goal for the week! | CIMNET::SHAHNAM | | Mon Feb 20 1989 12:41 | 12 |
| This is a terrific way to keep up motivation! My mini-goal for
this week is to plan each meal and write down what I will eat.
(And actually eat what I've planned!) I hope to go home tonight
and do this, and then go to the market. I will allow for some snacks
of my choosing, but I will really try to stick to the plan. I want
to do this because I've just joined Weight Watchers at Work and
really want to MAKE IT WORK! I'll check back on Friday, and hopefully
will be able to set a new mini-goal for the weekend, after having
successfully acheived this goal!

404.4 | To pretend to be Princess Leadbottom! | EASYNT::SNOW | | Mon Feb 20 1989 22:28 | 9 |
| This is wonderful! My mini-goal for the week is to pretend that
the major part of me that sits on a chair weighs a ton so I can't
get up to head for that candy machine just down the hall!
Have a good week everybody!

404.5 | "Mini" goals | SHIRE::BELL | Winsome ways and wicked wiles | Fri Feb 24 1989 11:23 | 14 |
| Amy,
This is just what I've been looking for. I think it's a great idea.
My goal will be to stick to my diet plan over this weekend, and eat
exactly what I'm supposed to. No cheating at all! Will report in
on Monday. If I don't somebody come after me PLEASE!
SHIRE::BELL
Ciao, Angie
P.S. I had about 40 lbs to lose - have lost just over 12 lbs and am just
about hitting Lack_of_motivation_mode!

404.6 | different | EMASS::SICA | Long and winding road...BUT..! | Sat Feb 25 1989 13:35 | 6 |
| Hmm, mini-goals...
My mini-goals are simple, do something every week specifically
for me. Like saving $25, by not eating Greasy Grimy Gofer Guts.
(Loosely translated to McDonalds,BurgerDeath,Wimpy's etc.)
|
404.7 | A little reward... | SHIRE::BELL | Winsome ways and wicked wiles | Mon Feb 27 1989 03:05 | 13 |
| Well I managed to stick to my "mini" goal... I didn't eat exactly what I
had planned but I didn't spoil it by overeating. I feel quite pleased
with myself.
My next goal for this week is not to have any chocolate or wine, I will
then reward myself on Saturday with 2 glasses of red wine.
Hope all of you are managing to stick to your goals.
Cheers, Angie

404.8 | half way there | COOKIE::WILCOX | Database Systems/West | Mon Feb 27 1989 10:59 | 6 |
| I stuck to half of my "make it thru the weekend" goal. I was completely
on program Saturday. Will work extra hard at making it thru the entire
upcoming weekend!

404.9 | under 200 | SKIVT::L_BURKE | I know I have faults ... | Mon Feb 27 1989 13:05 | 7 |
| I'd like to enter my "mini-goal" as it seems more important in print.
I want to be under 200 lbs. by this coming weekend. Depending on
when I weigh and whose scales that ranges between 2 - 5 pounds.
I'll go with my home scale which is the 2 pound choice.

404.10 | a new goal... | CURIE::ASBURY | | Wed Mar 29 1989 09:21 | 13 |
| Well, how is everyone doing? A few weeks ago, my goal was to walk
2 miles at least 4 times a week. I came close. Now I have a new
goal. I want to lose 6 pounds in the next 3 weeks. Sounds reasonable,
right? I hope so. Unfortunately, I have been doing a lot of emotional
eating lately. Not good for the body or the soul. I'm gonna work on that.
But I'm also walking a lot more and even getting up early some mornings
and riding my exercise bike before work.
How are you coming with these mini-goals?
-Amy.

404.11 | Size 10 by May 15 | CSG::CHENAUSKY | | Wed Mar 29 1989 11:22 | 15 |
| Well, I started walking 3 miles at lunchtime on Monday, I walked
again on Tuesday, however I have a secretarial luncheon today, and
will have to wait to Thursday to walk again (providing the weather
cooperates). I want to keep this up until my vacation in May.
My actual mini-goal is to be in a comfortable 10 by mid-may. My
best freind from high-school, and my husbands best friend from the
service will be here to visit then. They have been in Germany for
the last 3 years, and call it ego, but I just don't want them to
see me at my current weight.
By the way, I just put on a size 12 for the first time this morning
in 2 years! Boy does it feel great!

404.12 | I did it and have a new one | COOKIE::WILCOX | Database Systems/West | Thu Mar 30 1989 11:38 | 15 |
| I did make it thru one weekend recently completely "on program". (it was
obviously NOT the Easter weekend I referred to in my latest entry in
the progress note).
This week I have a goal to walk and/or do aerobics 4 times. I've done
the aerobics twice, and will most likely get to do the walking on the
weekend.
I'm SO HAPPY that the time is changing this weekend. It makes it stay
light enough after dinner that I can walk 2 miles with my daughter in
her backpack (a serious reminder that i used to weigh that much more!).

404.13 | well, all right! | CURIE::ASBURY | | Thu Mar 30 1989 13:50 | 13 |
| re .12
Liz - Congratulations! I know how much trouble you have making it
through a weekend on program. And I sympathize, because I have the
same problem. It's just so much tougher. But, now that you've done
it once, you have a success to look back on. (And I can say "if
she did it, so can I!")
Good job!
-Amy.

404.14 | I feel like the little train that could | AKOV11::GMURRAY | | Thu Mar 30 1989 17:12 | 20 |
| My mini-goal is to get back on program for at least one week.
I've been off program for a week and a half now, and I'm
going to aerobics tonight and then back to Weight Watchers.
I've lost 18 pounds so far, so I know I can do it. If I can
get back on track for one week then I know, I'm on the road
to success once again.
It's just a difficult time for me right now because my best
friend since high school told me that she's moving to
California. (I'm in Mass.) Needless to say, I'm not taking
it very well. I'll have to find some new ways to comfort
myself without going for the cookies.
Anyway, I followed program for 2 months and then screwed up
for a week and a half. I'll consider that vacation. Now if
I can stay on it for 1 week, I'll know that I'm back on the
road to the new thinner me.

404.15 | Plugging along! | COOKIE::WILCOX | Database Systems/West | Tue Jun 06 1989 16:34 | 16 |
| I've set a few mini-goals for myself this week and am doing great!
1. Don't weigh myself - I find if I see I'm down a pound or two
I get in the "I can cheat" mode.
2. Write it all down in my food diary - this is tough because it
sometimes means facing something I don't want to face like
having eaten a LOT of cookies. I decided I'd write it down
anyhow.
3. Walk - I've been out all but one night so far this week.
My week ends on Wednesday so I'll throw an entry in the progress note then!

404.16 | Revive this note? | SUBSYS::ARMSTRONG | sort of cast in concrete | Fri Mar 31 1995 22:44 | 10 |
| Is anyone interested in starting this note again?
I'll post my "weekend goals".
I'm going to try not to plow thru the cream cheese brownies I made for
company tonight. I also plan to go biking 10-15 miles tomorrow, and do
the Nordic Track and one excersize video (Buns of Steel, probably) on
Sunday.

| re .17 - HA! That was cute! (I needed that Monday morning humor!)
Well, I did ride my bike Saturday. AND raked the lawn for a little over
an hour. Sunday, felt lousy (must have a bug, I still feel weird). BUT!
I did get up early this morning and did the bike and Nordic Track. And
I didn't eat the cream cheese brownies. Have discovered in the past few
weeks, that my lactose intolerance thing is acting up again. In a way,
thats good, because I don't eat dairy stuff when that happens. I'd made
a batch of the cream cheese choc. chip squares and chocolate orgasms to
divide between company Friday night, and friends that were moving into
their house Saturday. Managed to only have 1 choc. orgasm Friday night.
(Which for me, is a HUGE victory!) 8-)
