I love my weekends with my little girl, but its so easy to over eat. TODAY I chose to not go to bed in the red. After I tucked my daughter in I did day 3 week 2 of c25k and I feel so much better.

What did you do?

    Went to the gym. Saturdays are usually the day I tend to overeat so I force myself to go the the gym to off set the "damage". An hour of cardio, lift, crunches, and stretch does my body good :smile:

    For some reason for me my weekends tend to be healthier than the weekdays!

    Saturday is my toughest day to stay on track; so I made my weekly weigh-in Sunday morning. It really helps me stay focused!

    Weekends are actually a breeze for me - far easier than the weekdays. Weekends usually mean I'm at home, and have access to all my healthier foods, I have time to fix them, prep full meals, etc. I don't have to worry about what I can heat up at work, whether or not something will hold up, if I will be able to eat it while I'm working, etc.

    I just focus on what my goals are and if I mess up I know it would be a set back for me.

    I stay busy and get out of the house if at all possible. Get extra exercise so if I do cave to a bit of temptation it won't be disastrous.

    I try working in my yard. You can spend a lot of time out there and burns lots of calories all while accomplishing another task as well. Only bad part is it is usually difficult to eat all of those calories back and I end up deficit still 4-600.... =)

    I'm the same way! It is way easier to eat healthy at home and not have to worry about what I have to take to work. And I have more time to work out and do things like hiking or mountain biking on the weekends.
