I was sort of lame in week 1 so let's kick some booty this week.
I didn't keep up with my push-ups, I worked out 3 out of the 5 days I should've & I gained 1.3 pounds. Blah! But I still walked 14 miles which I think is the most I've ever walked in a week. That's good, right?
My goals for this week will be to:
- Continue working towards losing 8 pounds (or rather 9.3 pounds) this month. If I want to reach that goal that means I have to eat right & exercise 5 times this week.
- Not eating after 8 was hit & miss. A lot of the times I forgot about it. Soooo I set up my WW app to remind me to track all my food by 8pm. That's a clear reminder to STOP EATING.
- I'm still researching strength training programs. I need to start toning up.
- My water intake has been horrible. I bought some diet green tea from Costco and refilled our 5 gallon of water. My goal for this week will be to finish it all this week. Insane right?
The top one is empty & the bottom one probably has 4.75 gallons. Let's kill this bee-yotch!
Per the challenge, I have to go out of my way this week & perhaps do something I've never done before. Funds are tight right now so I'll have to get creative.
Four things I did well today:
- Made a healthy choice while eating Mexican food today. I chose a salad with chicken & tortilla strips with low calorie dressing instead of a carb fest.
- No soft drinks. Water all the way baby!
- I listened to my body and rested. I wanted to work out today & take tomorrow as a rest day since it's my mom's birthday but my body was aching.
- Tracked all my food. It's such a pain but so worth it.
I struggled with my eating in the evening too.
ReplyDeleteIt's sooo hard!!
It's harder because I am reminded by my WW that I shouldn't eat and then I get hungry. But I know that I am not. Silly huh?
DeleteHey I'm knew to your page but I love it :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on walking 14 miles that's great work and also on making a healthy choice whilst eating Mexican, I swear Mexican is my undoing!.
If your looking for something to help with your water intake I would suggest adding MIO liquid to your water for taste, its Caffeine-free, Calorie-free per 8 fluid ounce serving, 0g Carbohydrates and considered a free exchange, Sugar-free, Free of artificial flavors, Kosher, Gluten-free and also doesn't contain nasty aspartame in it either! There's a bunch of different flavors to try too. I had to find a company that ships to Australia to try it but hopefully it will help me drink more water.
Good luck with everything.
