@IsMollyReallyHungry congrats on that 5lb loss!
Another good day for me yesterday.
1. Exercise (cardio or strength): 4/6 - spin, golf
2. Strength train 3 days a week: 2/3
3. Eat minimum 5 fruits/veggies a day: 5/7- apple, banana, tomato, salad x2
4. Eat adequate protein 7 days a week: 5/7 - yogurt, nuts, ham, egg1 -
Goals for the week:
1. In bed by 9:30 on weeknights.
2. Gym Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday. Goal is at least 4; stretch is all 5.
3. Prep breakfast and lunch for the next day each day.
4. Plan dinners with husband.
5. 10 push-ups and 2 minutes of planks daily.
6. Log everything.
7. Workout group Tuesday. Fingers crossed! This will be something new for me.
1. Done! Last night I worked at the park, and it was really tough, because we're open until 11 PM. That's WAY past my bedtime! But I made it. Slept in today until after 8, which was good, because tonight we may stay open until 11:30. Yikes! Tomorrow I have dinner with a friend so I'm going to take my melatonin supplement with me to take around 7:30 or 8.
2. Did not go Monday; husband was sick Sunday night and I stayed home Monday evening and pampered him a bit since he was home by himself while I went to work. Did go Wednesday, Thursday, and today, so I'm on track!
3. Done! This is still a chore, but it's getting easier to do.
4. Sorrrt of. What I'm finding out is that this phrasing isn't particularly helpful. Sometimes "planning dinners" consists of getting home and asking each other "well what're we gonna eat?" So my next week's goal is going to need to be more specific to be more helpful.
5. Did the push-ups! Forgot about the planks. But they're similar, so I think next week I'm going to focus on push-ups and wall sits.
6. Hahahaha NO. Next week's goal is going to be to input recipes, and logging can take a back seat to that until I build up a good stash.
7. I went! It was fun! Hoping to go again on Monday.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend. @cjsacto, it sounds like you need different friends :P A true friend would bring you something tasty that aligned with your goals.1 -
Saturday
1. Workout 4 times a week (2/4)
2. Log calories every day (3/7)
3. Drink at least 2 L of water (3/7)
1. Still sick. So only worked out twice this week. Better than nothing?
2. I didn't log calories yesterday or today because I've barely eaten.. me having a cold= no appetite. I did pick at some things... but didn't measure them so couldn't log them accurately or even estimate their calorie count.
3. Nope. Did this through Wednesday and stopped on thursday when my appetite decreased. Good news is I didn't have any sugary soda ( which I love)
I have dropped a weight but I know that's due to not eating regularly over the past couple of days.
Hoepfully I feel better when the next weekly challenge begins
